about

A lil ditty for Valentine's Day, something smooth and mellow to ride out the rest of this winter. The production from Scotty Muzik is what inspired me to write this song. So truly without him this track would not exist. For that i thank him and highly suggest you check him out.

lyrics

(Verse)

I bought this for you,
and I paid for it with time.
Cus to me,
you're one awesome mortal.
Your face is just sublime.
You stepped into my portal,
leaving traces I could find.
You remind me of a drive down Laurel to the river,
taking in the pines.
If the breezes make you shiver,
my jackets no longer mine.
Walking through the park,
after dark.
Lets go climb a tree,
every moment with you is consistent jubilee.
Would you believe,
if I told you that I loved you?
Forget about it.
I don't wanna burst the bubble,
cus I fear that I'll be dead without it.
Guess I'll stick around,
like bare skin to leather couches.
Ninety days since I seen you last,
but who's really countin'?
It's funny the weight the Fall carries.
Bigger than James's Peach,
sweeter than chocolate strawberries.
Now the clouds are separating,
as the showers dissipate.
The sun is coming out,
so I'll put flowers in the vase.
Powder in my face,
I can taste it at the back of my throat.
The smoke will make you choke,
like a noose around your neck.
Don't leave me hangin'.
That p*ssy was amazing,
but I don't miss that the most.
One minute you could be lovers,
then back to imperfect strangers.
The times never changing,
guess dating culture has.
Somehow I'm not relating.
We went for brunch,
smokin blunts.
How'd I get so attached,
in the span of a couple months?
We were having so much fun,
and so the time flies.
Now without a dose of you,
I don't feel quite as sky-high.
Wish I remember where you stayed,
I'd run up on you in a second.
Or do a couple drive-by's,
to catch you when you step in.
When it's dark and it's late.
How long do I have to wait?

(Chorus)

Downtown
I just wanna see you downtown
Cus my feet don't touch the ground now
Ever since I met you
I'm not sad you're not around now
It's just my feet don't touch the ground now
Cus ever since I met you my feet don't touch the ground now
I just wanna see you downtown
