Cokeheads on the boulevard
Lookin' at me like I'm lost well I am
You don't say (You don't say!)
Broken, got a broken heart
In a (hah) going one thousand
On my way (On my way!)
Driftin' away to the stars tryna find you
Up on the way to your heart (To your heart)
Driftin' away to the sun gotta find you
Up on the way to your heart (To your heart)
You been gone for weeks
Gone for days
Gone for me
Far away, in the streets, Beverley
You ain't gotta say a thing, it's already done
You ain't gotta win a war, already won
Yeah, I'ma need help
I got an obsession with fighting off rejection
I can tell you really don't care
You don't feel as passionately you once had with me
Yeah, yeah, you're focused on yourself
Just the way that I do, just the way I try to
Tell you, you should do for yourself sometimes
I never wanna feel like the burden you been tied to
I been struggling, been resentful to the new stars on the menu
I been fumbling, cause I'm the wrong nigga to commit to, to give in to
You been gone for weeks
Gone for days
Gone for me
Far away, in the streets, Beverley
You ain't gotta say a thing, it's already done
You ain't gotta win a war, already won
I'm feelin' stupid (Ooh), feelin' foolish (Ooh)
They ain't rootin' for me (Yeah), like usually
My last two releases ain't really do shit, huh?
I couldn't hide from my delusion
I can admit when I don't know what I'm doin'
You was following my lead but I didn't lead us to do shit
Damn
2022, it humbled me real quick, yeah
That was last year's pain but it still hits
You need a change but maybe I need it more, 'cause I can't take another loss, I'm sorry
I been stuck in my ways, been tryna get all the glory in the digital world where everybody's a star
You stumbled away while I was off on tour, you're better off tellin' me you don't love me no more
You're better off sayin' you never loved me at all
'Cause you left me as soon as you see me startin' to fall
Man, you been gone for weeks
Long live Montero
1, 2, 3
Long live Montero
I love you so much Barcelona
You been gone for weeks
Gone for days
Gone for me
Far away, in the streets, Beverley
You ain't gotta say a thing, it's already done
You ain't gotta win a war, already won
Man, I hope you find your way out
Man, I hope you find your way out
Man, I hope you find your way out
Man, I hope you find your way out
Out, out, out
