lyrics

Weed tasting like pad thai
Big tree, no bonsai
Smoke it all with my hands tied
Give a fuck about a top 5
It's over
Whether we know it or not
Shake 8th maracas
Feel like Barabbas if I'm being honest
Hold my bonus if I have no honor
Hold me closer if you're seeing danger
And I'm at different angles
Too old to get entangled by all that's dangled
You're lost like dongles
We're ducks getting strangled
By analogs and descendants of the same storms
Holding places like parking attendants
There is no mending what you're bending
Blocks, sticks and endings
Stomach's hurting, wasn't my appendix
It's the gymnastics that I do in search of baby leverage
Jettison and hemorrhage
The messages and suffering
Old tales, whoop there it is
A prisoner to some goofy shit
Like who can be crowned the goofiest
Why you think I'm so ruth-e-less?

It's over
Whether we know it or not
Oh no
Whether we know it or not
Oh no

Skip the circle jerks
'Cause I hate stans and can't stand stans
If I left you hurt
I might explain but show your hands
White flags and peace signs
I like that plan
White vans and tree lines
Lines in the sand
Second shooters mean bigger budgets
Peep the lineup
Pick 'em from it
I'm no Judas
Back up off me
You ain't spent no time inside a oven
Or broke a sweat with french baguettes
Lemon juice on my finger tips
Keep the palette fresh
Tell whoever chill
You keep dishonorable people around you?
What's that make you?
If you know, you know
So hey, what's your excuse?
What's your excuse?
You keep dishonorable people around you?
What's that make you?
If you know, you know
So hey, what's your excuse?
What's your excuse?

It's over
It's over
It's over
Whether we know it or not
(Whether we know it or not)
