Dark

Oh

I'll be gone like summer

I'll be here like rain

Far beyond my expertise where I'ma be that day

When you're gone like sunburn

Or you're here like rain

Far beyond my expertise where I'ma be that day

There was a movement in the sky this morning

The clouds tore open and it started storming

On me, looking at the roof in this broke apartment

Watch in case the walls start closing on me

I used to have an old beat black guitar

I used to sleep in all of these trashy cars

I used to make the beat and spit the rap in the closet

Before anybody cared who the rapper was

And now my food got no taste

And my room got no space

And my head got so big

Don't remember who you is, dawg

Don't remember when it switched but

Yeah, it's dark out here

You better believe it

Yeah, it's dark

I felt a hole in my soul this evening

I thought it would be different after I left treatment

I stood up to a demon

Mama, you shoulda seen it

Remember back when Alex had no front teeth?

I do, I remember most of it

Back before I shed my shell, now I'm a ghost of it

Remember back when it was the four of us like ghostbusters?

Remember that?

I ain't even know a democrat from a lumberjack

Now it's mostly politics

Now I work on holidays

Now I'm worth all kinda things

Now kids pin me up in living rooms in they mama's place

Man, I moved out my mama's place

And then I bought my mama place

Then I replaced my mama with a white ***** from the palisades

Then after she broke up with me, I became who my mama hates, I became my dad

I would break promises that I would make to my favorite people

I'd cheat on my favorite ***** and then I would lie through my teeth

You remember when Alex had no front teeth?

I don't be remembering shit

I don't have a good memory

I mean I do, it's more like flashbacks

Yeah

That's what you have? Like flashes?

Yeah, I have like a lot of them

They're very like, brief flashes

What about babyhood, do you have any babyhood shit in the back of your head?

Like, I don't remember nothing as a toddler

Do you remember like? No? I figured as much, so you got my memory

What's your earliest memory? Any?

Um

What house do you remember? What's your first house you remember?

'Cause I don't even remember

I remember

Well I remember your first house, house, it was actually an apartment

I remember
