They say I gotta have a plan
I say if you don't burn you won't tan
They say I gotta watch myself
I had my cake and watch it melt
Uh, I'm gonna pack it with a rocket, I'ma cock it
And blow the roof off this boojie club
F*ck the haters, gimme some love
Don't be so pretentious
I fake gold like a dentist
And if I said it, then I meant it
He a soccer player, he headed
I'm going lightspeed
Drinking rice drink, dripping Visine
Bitch, cover your eyes
You won't find me
Even beside me you're behind me

By the time you on it I'll be off it
By the time you get it I'll be done wit' it
You know that we be going lightspeed ahead
Everybody told me I should slow down
But instead all I could do was take it
Lightspeed out of space and there is no calculation
Tell me, am I out of my head?
Or are we really going lightspeed?

We are experiencing some turbulence
It's the Cataracs

If you ain't on my flight you gettin' flown over
Under a palm tree, that's where I'm lying
Like when I tell people I'm sober
Got a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other one
But I ain't never listened to none of 'em
It's been a crazy road running
And no, I ain't never stopped running
People talking about something
But I, I ain't never heard nothing
The sun is set and the clouds are moving
The sky is black and I'm used to it
We awake all night, who knew it?
I got a dark soul, you could never see through it

By the time you on it I'll be off it
By the time you get it I'll be done wit' it
You know that we be going lightspeed ahead
Everybody told me I should slow down
But instead all I could do was take it
Lightspeed out of space and there is no calculation
Tell me, am I out of my head?
Or are we really going lightspeed?

We are experiencing some turbulence
It's the Cataracs

Are we really going lightspeed?
Are we really going lightspeed?
Are we really going lightspeed?
