Gas Store Backbone by Ethan Wood Lyrics
[Chorus]
Cooking up the rent, I get sent to the gas store
Asking after plugs, man what you know about it
But I can’t repent, to prevent losing my backbone
Got me on the drugs, don’t go nowhere without it
[Verse 1]
Uh
Yeah I supplement with all the medicine, it got me heaven sent and like I’m Edison gon' turn on like a light bulb
Late in my ascent I might resent or just lament the fundament of all the drugs I underwent, my god it’s frightful
But it’s vital
And I’m prideful
That I can see a new perspectivе, it’s delightful
And I can reach new hеights, Gustave with his Eiffel, promise ain’t no trifle - opps always get spiteful
And we clicking up
Got yo baby mama in the Benz, of course she boutta lick it up
And she with her friends I can’t pretend I’m not gon live it up
Getting stuck
Ah
It’s time to sober up
It’s time to sober up
Look
Cause my composure’s fucked
And it’s getting real scary like I'm out in mid-October cuz, got me throwing up, beans up in my system
Man they blowing up
[Chorus]
Cooking up the rent, I get sent to the gas store
Asking after plugs, man what you know about it
But I can’t repent, to prevent losing my backbone
Got me on the drugs, don’t go nowhere without it (x2)
[Verse 2]
Walking to the plug I’m down to buy a few crystals
Don’t think I forgot, won’t catch me here without a pistol
But what kind of rule is that homie, it’s abysmal
In life or death you don’t got a choice, man it’s that simple
And nowadays with all the artificial, superficial, beneficial, getting harder to find out what is official
Yet the people that deal with the effects of the prejudicial
May as well just be considered sacrificial, pure dismissal
And I just think it’s crazy that
These motherfuckers with their weak ass bars make it in rap
When all their boring and simplistic flows put me to sleep like it’s a nap
Man ain’t nobody playing that
Now in my defense, I’m well aware I need to switch it up
But my flows are catchy, even to me, and I get stuck
And that’s the thing, this music sounds like a dream
When I’m fucked up
{which is always}
As opposed to in my head running amok
So I just make the music I enjoy listening to
And makeup all the craziest flows, man, I’ve made a few
And why not throw in a big word, man, or maybe two
Because I can, my lyricisms show just what I have to prove
[Chorus]
Cooking up the rent, I get sent to the gas store
Asking after plugs, man what you know about it
But I can’t repent, to prevent losing my backbone
Got me on the drugs-
[Verse 3]
And I be on the fuckin drugs
Thank god I’m plug
So I can get the plug prices
With the tabs, I dice them up
Just one of many of my vices
And unfortunately, I don’t actually need any advice
I would instinctively absorb all of your guidance if your life was met with envy or greed by yours truly, don't you see
I’m not tryna live a normal life, I’m tryna be free
{felt crazy this week}
Vapors in the air they got me hazy indeed
And I been thinking
Where’s the point that turns a driven individual to greed
And how is that supposed to affect me?
Because it seems you gotta choose between an emphatic approach and self-esteem
Man it’s crazy, don’t you agree?
And so my thoughts keep leading me down this path to snatch the crown
And while the fame is enticing, I’m also scared of the renown
But I’m not chicken like Tyson
And I’m happy with my sound
It's just that sometimes I frown when all these bloggers get to sucking like they Dyson, they clowns
Over horizon, I found
That all the prices compound
And all the sizes go down
But when we get to my sound, the improvises profound
And I get cooking up the rent
Right as I grab the fucking crown
[Chorus]
Cooking up the rent, I get sent to the gas store
Asking after plugs, man what you know about it
But I can’t repent, to prevent losing my backbone
Got me on the drugs, don’t go nowhere without it
Cooking up the rent, I get sent to the gas store
Asking after plugs, man what you know about it
But I can’t repent, to prevent losing my backbone
Got me on the drugs, don’t go nowhere without it
[Verse 1]
