Intro
Chorus
I'll be gone like summer,
I'll be here like rain
Far beyond my expertise wh
ere I'ma be that day
When you're gone like sunburn
or you're here like rain
Far beyond my expertise wh
ere I'ma be that day
Verse 1
There was a m
ovement in the sky this morning
The clouds tore
open and it started storming on me
Looking at the r
oof in this broke apartment
Watch in case th
e walls start closing on me
I used to have an o
ld beat black guitar
I used to sleep in a
ll of these trashy cars
I used to make the b
eat and spit the rap in the closet
Before anyb
ody cared who the rapper was
And now my f
ood got no taste
And my room got no space, and my he
ad got so big
Don't remember who you is, da
wg
Don't remember when it switched, b
ut
Chorus
Yeah, it's da
rk out here, you better beli
eve it
Yeah, it's da

Verse 2
I felt a h
ole in my soul this evening
I thought it would be diff
erent after I left treatment
I stood up to a de
mon, mama, you should've seen it
Remember back when A
lex had no front teeth?
I do, I remember m
ost of it
Back before I shed my shell, now I'm a gh
ost of it
Remember back when it was the four of us like ghost
busters?
Remember that? I ain't even know a democr
at from a lumberjack
Now it's mostly politics
Now I wo
rk on holidays, now I'm worth all kinda things
Now k
ids pin me up in living rooms in they mama's place
Man, I mo
ved out my mama's place and then I bought my mama place
Then I re
placed my mama with a white bitch 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 bitch and then I would lie
through my teeth
You remember when Alex had no front teeth?
Outro
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 'em
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? (
Uhm)
What house do you remember? W
hat's your first house you remember?
'Cause I don't even remember
(I remember)
Well, I remember your first h
ouse, house, it was actually an apartment
(I remember)
