Arik Peace - Stay Lyrics

I like my cartoons with cereal
My rap styles remedial
Myself I'm satirical
These lyrics are venereal
Past in peripheral
When life wasn't ethereal
Rain wasn't imperial and
Love wasn't empirical
That shits whack, verse all black
Take Prozac
I know
Want big stacks, nice cognac
So on tracks
I flow
No set-backs, just attack
Our minds, when
I glow
See a flash, hear
Click clack, and click clack
I'm gone
This a song for the past me
Life's movement is passing
You ain't ever goan past me
You ain't ever gonna blast me
This here is D-day
I failed now i re-slay
Lessons I relay
I do my shit my way
Chance is I will play
On MC's I will prey
First classing your ears
Like my bars got valet
Skies often are grey
Swear that it's okay
Paths often will stray
Things never will stay
Yeah

Drugs make me sober, get
Real high, no roller
Speed makes me slower and
My pork is kosher
Money makes me broker
She likes it when I choke her
She slaps, sipping yak
In the back of the Rover
This just how I do shit
Crashed the car, I curbed it
Take the keys I'm unfit
But f*ck it, let's get lit
Fate waits for no man
Cheap weave, with the spray tan
She's there pulling money
From the only one she can
Whoa
I'm sorry but did I get too real
Seems I need a gun just to get me a deal
Seems I gotta start re-inventing the wheel
Got so many flows feel like I am unreal
So what's a young man with a plan gonna do
When the day gets dark and shit's bluer than blue
I guess you get weird, smoke, and cheers with the crew
Don't act surprised
When the reaper is coming for you
Cause he will

I'll leave you with a final thought
Fake shit I won't cop
I miss my past, the way I laughed
Instant noodles
Side of Kraft
It's getting hard to smile
I Been gone for awhile
Put myself up on trial
Melancholy my style
But this ain't goodbye
Cause names never die
Just Please don't
No Please don't
No please don't
Just cry
When I... fly
When I... fly
When I... fly
When I... Peace
