Aye, aye, aye, aye
It's so much pressure to do this song
I just want it to be right
Um
Um
Hi

Lately it's hard to reach you
I feel like Tantalus
Tell me what damaged us
Connection breaking up messy statements we made 
Conversatin' through cameras
No love lost but the feelings have faded a bit
We ain't acrylic as we was
Watercolors in the sun
Never prepared for rain to come
Tears to run 
My face flooded that night we broke the levee
Lately you not as heavy on my mind
Truthfully I was never ready for time to change us 
Never knew when, you were coldly pragmatic
And I was 
A sloppy apathetic hopeless romantic
And we were 
Nothing more than the truest form of what we would've been
Seasons change we rearrange
Cold at the winters end
F*ck it we live and we learn
Our fire still burns
But now we candles
A wildfire surely would've burned the book of us
Our story isn't over my friend
But we turned a page, we'll never be December again

And

Lately it's hard to reach you
I feel like Tantalus
Tell me what's happening
'Cause this shit is Maddening
I don't got time to play no games with you
2K20 been crazy
And I don't need no hate from you
Lately
Lately
Lately it's hard to talk and easy to complicate you
Using big words to say the littlest shit
"Fornicate you"
Lately I'm too impatient
Lately I need some space to breathe
This shit is suffocating
You know we always been 
Hot headed, hard headed and stubborn as f*ck
No hard feelings, you my kin and I love you but f*ck
It's like
Lately keeping my composure don't bring you closure 
Like that old song I might 
Cut you off to grow closer
But we live and we learn
Build on a bridge that we burned
Hoping that one day we cross paths again
The story doesn't have to end
And if the storm settles and you wash up on my shore
Just give me a knock 
And I'll come and I'll open the door

And

Lately it's hard to reach me
I feel like Tantalus standing in front a mirror
Reaching for an understanding
That's deeper that what I seen on the camera or the screen
Tryna find a place in a world that was bigger than what it seemed
Lately my shoulder been cold
I cut off my phone
Reminisce on my kinfolk
I miss em but I never wrote home
Shut all my windows
And dream up a lie about living happily
Cutting ties with my friends 
And forgetting to visit family 
Sit in my dorm, bong toking, dreaming bout a grammy
When the last time I seen my granny was on a Gram post
Last word I heard of her was from a gram caption
She passed 
And I was too busy getting my album cracking
But we live and we learn
The world still turns
I look out and try to channel my vision
But all I see is static on the television
All I see is static on the television
