Matthew in the Middle (feat. Daniel Caesar)
It's a long long
Long long
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle
It's a long long
Long long
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle yeah
Amen hallelujah
Amen hallelujah
Is this heaven or suburbia
Is this heaven or suburbia
Amen hallelujah
Amen hallelujah
Is this heaven or suburbia
Is this heaven or suburbia
I don't idolize ******
There ain't a man alive I idolize *****
My only fear is all this idle time *****
For the paper I might finalize ******
And you flexin' I can't find the time *****
And get stressed from time to time *****
This obsession with status and new possessions
Patterned from which the lesson is
Average is choosing meth
And balance is for older we're addicts and this is true
So what happens king of the youth
Is this heaven or suburbia
Is this heaven or suburbia
My soul bleeds over the keys of this piano
I'm in trouble
Need more treble
My brother ran base I rock like heavy metal yeah
My soul bleeds over the keys of this piano
I'm in trouble
Need more treble
My brother ran base I rock like heavy metal yeah
We ain't talk much since '99
We have problems 99
I'm comin' home I know he lyin'
But that's my brother so that was fine
He in the pen
I'm independent
I used to pen ****
But never send it
He was like my pen pal
I pawned his pendant
Then cop a pistol
No cop protection
He had potential
But times were tense in
Those tense times
Crime pays quicker
The grind takes time
No Tim tabor
He in the field no god
**** boy lifestyle a car no job
He had a chain now he chained
Calling collect with some change
My mother cryin' and I hate
I know that she snitched on my brother
So that's a family divided
Another Christmas no brother
I jail visit my brother
Tired of missin' my brother yeah
I hope you listenin' brother
I love you don't you think I'm dissin' you brother
But we never kicked it at all
We never kicked or even pitched at a ball
I hope I see you on tour brother yeah
It's a long long long long
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle
It's a long long long long
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle
Amen hallelujah
Amen hallelujah
Is this heaven or suburbia
Is this heaven or suburbia
Amen hallelujah
Amen hallelujah
Is this heaven or suburbia
Is this heaven or suburbia
