Earl Sweatshirt - Solace lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Late fo' everythin', my face to the cement

That's how I always seen it, I spent days faded and anemic

You could see it in my face, I ain't been eating, I'm just wasting away

Looks like the way that River Phoenix went gon' end up my fate

And when they drag me out the gutter, mail the ashes to my mother

Twist the spliff if I don't finish my plate

Slip a fist up fo' my niggas in chains, my mental was caged

See I ain't been to prison but the feeling's the same

Shared sentiment, winning if the pen hit the page

As of late, I've been watching every bitch on MySpace

Shit's just looking different wit age

Try to make sum' sense of all this shit in my brain

One foot stuck in a tar pit of my ways

(Verse 2)

It was like that the whole time, we'll be alright

Stay up all night, but it's alright

I done stayed up the whole night, but it's alright

It's me and my nibblin' conscience

Nigga I'm fixing to give up, I've been alone fo' the longest

It's trouble, the way that we're jogging

Nothing gon' save us or stop us, me and my nibblin' conscience

Nigga I'm fixing to give up, I've been alone fo' the longest

This spliff, I ain't splitting no time soon

My brain split in two, it's raining a bit

I hope it's a monsoon, my face in the sink

I'm seeing my mom soon, I'm faded, I stink

Stay in it

(Verse 3)

I got my grand-momma's hands, I start to cry when I see 'em

Cuz they remind me of seeing her

These the times that I needed her most cuz I feel defeated

And I buy nothing by myself, my second thoughts, my hec

My hands, I start to cry when I see 'em

Cuz they remind me of seeing her

These the times that I needed her most cuz I feel defeated

And I buy nothing but myself, my second thoughts

My hectic process of thinking & all my doubts and I think

I know Nak in there sleeping, he on the couch, that's my brother

Give me a boost when my confidence need it

So I luv him, to tell the truth, I got a problem wit eating

I be drugging, to tell the truth, I'm not supposed to be off in here

I'm supposed to be sleeping, but I be turning and tossing

To tell the truth, I miss my partna dem

To tell the truth, you can't be loud when you're the wrongest, fam

To tell the truth, I'm at a loss of friends

Well time waits fo' no man and death waits wit cold hands

I'm the youngest old man that you know

If ya soul intact, let me know
