Perfect Words
[Intro: JZAC]
Yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
You wanna know how I feel? (It's still real to me, damn it)
I'll tell you how I feel
I can't quite explain it
[Verse 1: JZAC]
I think I'm losin' trust a bit
And my faith been on the ropes
Disregardin' that my journey is a custom fit
Lust for life, I'm guilty, I must admit
I keep makin' these decisions I'm disgusted with
I'm only here for two drinks and it's max (I finish number one)
Only one more, then I'm capped (Lemme get a double one)
Three drinks, I swear I'm hearin' DJ Khaled in my ear
Somethin' said to drink another one, anothеr one, another one, anothеr one
I'm drinkin' 'til I'm stumblin'
Pardon if I'm slurin' my words or if I'm mumblin', um
Woke up feelin' less successful
Anxious and existential
One pillow where I rest my temple
Thinkin' damn, man, I could've had it all
Jerry really had the best potential
Feelin' sorry, time to pull it together, dog
I could use some clarity, it's hard with a head of fog
My girl is in the livin' room, telenovela's on
I've been stuck in bed instead of writin' a better song
I'm dealin' with the lows, hit a ceilin' where the flow neglects me
At home with the Notes app empty
[Chorus: JZAC]
I've been lookin' for the perfect words
Swear I got somethin' to say and I been cookin' up the perfect words
My brain just a little delayed, see I been lookin' for a purpose first
Spend more than half of my time on Earth tryna write a perfect verse
Spend more than half of my time on Earth tryna write
[Verse 2: JZAC]
I left work early
Hit the gas station in town, I'm at the pump
Dude approached me in a Dirk jersey
Words slurrin', man, probably off a Perc, dirty
Said he remembers when he first heard me
Oh, word, he's a fan of my shit, okay, it's clickin' now
Thought he looked familiar, mm, maybe I'm trippin' out
It's obvious he don't wanna leave, he's tryna stick around
Tellin' me 'bout all of his tea like I'ma listen now
I'm too nice, so I stand waitin'
He's like, "Yo, you should come to my car, we'll clambake it" (What?)
Man's faded, plus I think he's havin' withdrawls, his hands shakin'
He said it's from landscapin'
I'm tryna go, but he don't want me to skirt
He said, "First, let me spit you a verse, it'll be real quick"
Then he just decided on the spot, he started rhymin'
Didn't know what else to do but nod my head like I was vibin'
Told him it was dope, I was lyin'
Got back to my car
Finally back up on the road and I'm drivin'
My destination is the studio to rap with some beats
Fans waitin' on the album release
I've been procrastinatin' heavy, it's been messy, man, I'm tired of that
And distractions prior to that been fuckin' with me
But I'm firin' back
And then I *doo* hit a pothole and pulled to the side
Saw my tire was flat
[Chorus]
Can't find the perfect words (Fuckin' kidding me?)
Swear I got somethin' to say and I been cookin' up the perfect words (Come on, man)
My brain just a little delayed, see I been lookin' for a purpose first
Spend more than half of my time on Earth tryna write a perfect verse
Spend more than half of my time on Earth tryna write
[Outro: JZAC]
Keep on sayin' what needs to be said
When chips are down, you will not fold (Okay)
Like a wrestler, you winnin' the gold (Ayy)
Yes, championships like to grace the ring (A-a-alright man, I go-I gotta t—)
Dave's done talkin', JZAC (Yeah), yo, sing
Ayy, I gotta t-I gotta take off, man, peace
