They Shot Ricky

Tell me all your dreams
Tell me your ain't got fears and hopes and schemes
Tell me you know his life is very rarely what it seems
Show me all the stars that light your sky
What you can't seem to say I see inside

Melt the Mona Lisa through a broken speaker
U-phoria frame me from my frozen fever
Ether, feel it bleeding through the sheets
Lose sleep, loose leaf
You usually read 'em and weep, peep
My eyes closed, scribe and scroll and watch how life unfold
I strike a note, recite 'em and excite your silent soul
Multiply me mami, slide me some warmness
Kinda flame that make the baby grow gorgeous
Great performance, stay late, savor the rawness
Like the stakes are enormous
Hit notes to make the chords that string together the moments
Lord willin',
Can't avoid the feeling that we'll get caught for stealing
I pray we make good on a smidgen of all that we've been given
Time that you and I been spending packed a lot of living
Rough draft, I was picked to rock the first round without revision
Can't allow them to cloud our vision
No, that's not in our composition
Out of my mouth I sprout this ism
Listen, teardrops on my eyelid
Screenshots of a life lived
Speak it on through the silence
Please do not try to buy this,
It's priceless, that's a lot of prices
Either deny it or dive in
Either good loving or lying
Either way, you ain't surviving
Crossroads of a crisis
I still remember the night when
You let go of that code, rolled over in bed and said it just like this

Tell me all your dreams
Tell me your ain't got fears and hopes and schemes
Tell me you know his life is very rarely what it seems
Show me all the stars that light your sky
What you can't seem to say I see inside
