Crash First – honestav & mgk Lyrics
I fill my lungs with half my worth
And try to go numb so that I can’t hurt
‘Cause at my highs, I’m at my worst
And I can’t fly until I crash first
Everyone’s seeing me screamin’, been that since birth
Everyone’s seeing this money I’m blowin’, but nobody’s seeing the work
Look, Dad, I’m high like you, for me, the pills don’t work
I like digging in a bag, I like smoking ‘til it hurts
And if my eyes roll back, then let the tears come first
Been holdin’ those in too long
Fakin’ it like I’m too strong
And when my eyes roll back, throw my body in the dam
And them things in my pocket, will you hide ‘em from my fam?
Will you tell the world I loved hard?
Can you make ‘em understand
That all of the things I was struggling with didn’t make me less a man?
And all of thе trauma I’m trying to bury probably made me who I am
Think growing up broken was nеcessary, so I could fix my fam
And part of me died on his deathbed, holding my daddy’s hand
Just tell my daughters their father will drown if that means they can swim
I fill my lungs with half my worth
And try to go numb so that I can’t hurt
‘Cause at my highs, I’m at my worst
And I can’t fly until I crash first
I know that it takes time, I’m comin’ to get you
Walkin’ a straight line, I need me a breakthrough
I’m smokin’ a grapevine, sippin’ the grape juice
Choppin’ a white line
It’s gettin’ harder to face you
(Oh, God)
(Yo, we ‘bout to— ayy, look)
(Yo, we ‘bout to fuck it up)
(Ayy, Kells, tell the people, man)
(Ayy, bro, ayy, Kells, they act like we don’t do this, man, what? Come on)
Yeah, take my hands off the wheel, I’m speedin’
I said I hate you when I left, I didn’t mean it
Open wounds from my nose, still bleedin’
Only you can clean me up, I’m still fiendin’
Cold sweats in these meds, can’t treat it
No sleep, I’ma party through the weekend
Kerosene, black smoke, I’m breathin’
Somebody, save me, I’ve been falling off the deep end, uh
All I know is I don’t know how to give a fuck (I don’t)
All I know is I don’t know how to give a fuck (I don’t)
I couldn’t give a fuck (No)
I never gave a fuck (No)
All I know is I don’t know how to give a fuck
Under pressure, I don’t got control of my aggression
Under the influence, I’m ‘bout to make a bad impression
On the dresser, it’s some ammunition and a weapon
And I’ve been smoking on this shit since I was adolescent
Three sixes, I’m tryna get lucky, number seven
I wonder if they got a spot for junkies up in Heaven?
Leave a mess if they gon’ find my body in the bedroom
And they can listen to this song if they want my confession
Yeah, take my hands off the wheel, I’m speedin’
I said I hate you when I left, I didn’t mean it
Open wounds from my nose, still bleedin’
Only you can clean me up, I’m still fiendin’
Cold sweats in these meds, can’t treat it
No sleep, I’ma party through the weekend
Kerosene, black smoke, I’m breathin’
Somebody, save me, I’ve been falling off the deep end (No)
All I know is I don’t know how to give a fuck (I don’t)
All I know is I don’t know how to give a fuck (I don’t)
I couldn’t give a fuck (No)
I never gave a fuck (No)
All I know is I don’t know how to give a fuck
Go, go, go, go
I’m getting closer to death
Go, go, go, go
I’m getting closer
Go, go, go, go
I’m getting closer to death
Go, go, go, go
I’m getting closer
