Candy 02:53
[Verse] Sounds so sweet, you’d think they got candy in they ears On the town again, my dear Going up and down, is this a good idea? Is this a good idea? This ain’t a good idea A little here and there, but a lot there and here It’s hot up in here, like nelly said 64 degrees, slidin’ in our element I could take you to a little place that I never went Where every moment’s so, so heaven sent (No hell, no, no, no) [Bridge] What am I doing? So fresh to the drip, look like I’m covered in cool whip And bodily fluids I’m not with the hetero shit unless your boo is You drown me in the greens, look like a ******* druid Tuck me under your sheets and I’m useless Put me under your sheets and I’m useless [Verse 2] Sounds so sweet, they got some guava candy in they ears Damn, that sugar makes it hard to hear They’ve been clogged up for eighteen years “That dainty queer needs some earplugs So they don’t break their ears,” That’s shit I hate to hear No fear, when I break the mirror In pieces, I feel like Queen Lear The piece is so period, but the sentence ends here The rent is so high, like 1999 Let’s tango high, till the suns done rising Till your bag’s dry, tears all out my— Tears all out my eyes, tease out all my lies And you leave, ‘cause I’m not that sly Bye bye

[Hook] Usually on DND, messages entering entropy You could just DM me for NB d, it’s nbd Well I could use empathy So if I turn my ringer on, would you still be textin’ me? [Post-Hook] Would you be next to me if I call? Would you be my pilot jones when I’m ice cold? Been feeling like a pile of bones when the night comes When the night comes, let it come [Verse] Cause I can sing myself to sleep if I have to But you’re lookin like Sableye with those damn jewels I swear you could steal my soul if I owned up And cut it with these half truths [Hook] Usually on DND, messages entering entropy You could just DM me for NB d, it’s nbd Well I could use empathy So if I turn my ringer on, would you still be textin’ me? [Post-Hook] Would you be next to me if I call? Would you be my pilot jones when I’m ice cold? Been feeling like a pile of bones when the night comes When the night comes, let it come [Bridge] Do not disturb me I’m an adult hardly I could use a carseat Learning not to say sorr— Probably eatin’ dinner by my lonesome with some parsley Beat switch kinda jarring (sorr— shit) Career shit going Northeast, going arctic Little sibling in the garden Calling all of my dogs out, barkin Hark, hark, let the angels sing Baritone, got the range, sibling Baritone, got the range, sibling I don’t know what a damn thing is If I’m saying something, it’s nonsense Yeah, I’m type Wingdings Type Chingling, let the bells ring in [Verse 2: Amaaj] Grey area, wanna see ya I don’t know what for One minute pining, the other minute I’m up at your door I have no apology left in me I am simply being, sleeping, coping Hoping the morning gets me up and out my bag Lately I’m a drag Wrapped in this self-sufficient narrative But what is a narrative with no characters? I am learning, I know Been trying to grow, but when it will it show? Think I’m addicted, tryna hit this trick switch (Keeping it under, holding it like it’s thunder) Oh, I am keeping my eyes straight forward, still unsure (Keeping my eyes straight forward, still unsure) Keeping it under, holding it like it’s thunder (Think I’m addicted, tryna to hit this trick switch) Oh, I am holding it down ‘Cause I am a queen waiting on her crown [Hook] Usually on DND, messages entering entropy You could just DM me for NB d, it’s nbd Well I could use empathy So if I turn my ringer on, would you still be textin’ me?
