I messed up, but it be like that
I missed out, but it be like that (I missed out, but it be like that)
Like, why they had to do me like that?
Man, it wasn't 'posed to be like that
It be like that
I had doubts, but it be like that
I'm assed out, but it be like that (I'm assed out, but it be like that)
Lord knows it's been like that
But it don't gotta end like that

My sun don't shine no more
My light ain't lime no more (Ain't lime no more)
My kite don't fly no more
My woman ain't mine no more (Ain't mine no more)
My words don't rhyme no more
My life ain't live no more (Live no more)
My heights ain't high, they low
I ain't got time no more
Luck ain't on my side no more
I can't touch the sky no more (Sky no more)
The plug don't supply no more
I ain't alright, I'm wrong (Alright, I'm wrong)
My pot don't multiply, it don't wanna divide no more (Divide no more)
I can't see the signs no more
I don't wanna try no more

I messed up, but it be like that
I missed out, but it be like that (I missed out, but it be like that)
Like, why they had to do me like that?
Man, it wasn't 'posed to be like that
It be like that
I had doubts, but it be like that
I'm assed out, but it be like that (I'm assed out, but it be like that)
Lord knows it's been like that
But it don't gotta end like that

'Cause my sun just shined again
My light look lime again, yeah
My kite might fly again
My woman wanna be mine again, yeah
And all my words rhyme again
My life's more live again
My heights feel high as shit
I'm takin' my time again
'Cause luck is on my side again
I can touch the sky again (Sky again)
My plug is online again
Everything is alright again, yeah (Alright again)
The product still multiply, the total divide, it make sense
I can see the signs again
Let me tell you why I'm tryin' again

I messed up, but it be like that
I missed out, but it be like that (I missed out, but it be like that)
Like, why they had to do me like that?
Man, it wasn't 'posed to be like that
It be like that
I had doubts, but it be like that
I'm assed out, but it be like that (I'm assed out, but it be like that)
Lord knows it's been like that
But it don't gotta end like that

Spirallin' (Right), spirallin' (Yeah)
Baby, I've been spirallin' (Spirallin')
(I've been down on my luck)
(Lookin' up like, "What the fuck?")
Spirallin', spirallin'
(Today just ain't my day)
Baby, I've been spirallin' (Mercury retrograde, ayy)
Spirallin' (Oh, man)
Spirallin' (When the sun set and it's cold out and the door closes on you)
Spirallin' (Gotta reset and reroute with more fortitude)
Baby, I've been spirallin' (It's tedious and difficult, but it's supposed to be)
Spirallin' (Too many characters in the alphabet to just settle for E-Z)
Spirallin' (To begin again is frightenin', but the hardest part is startin')
Spirallin' (They say the endin' is everything and they was always heartless)
Baby, I've been spirallin' (We far gone, we march on and charge through the debacles)
Spirallin' (A sad mind is a set mind, it'll take an army to stop you)
