Departure

Listening to Departure and it really hits home

From the land of the chrome to the dome but now it's time to roam

Want something new man, I want something fresh

Cali where I wanna be, feel it deep in my chest

Best of me yet to be seen, too cliche to say I just want the green

Lean back and reminisce how I thought I'd die young, no thoughts of this

Get a little bit tired and wanna begin again

I'll Miss my friends but New York to me a dead end

And then, apprehension sets in, can I really leave?

Do I actually believe, in myself, or do I just deceive

No peace if I make the wrong choice, no sympathy, or fallback for me

Think back to them days at Lee, hard to see what I've come to be

I've had it easy man, no poverty but why to me

Is Kid Cudi's discography the only thing that applies to me

Like I should be doing better, most don't got what I got

I don't have to worry about my boys getting got or getting shot

My parent's expectations for me did I get caught?

Thought passes through my brain like a headshot, no rest spot at home

Can't blame my parents, that's a fault of my own

These late nights sitting, listening to sad songs for mad long

I can't do this forever, UC Irvine, send me that letter

That'll change my life, every day and night, spread the light

For a middle class kid stuck in suburbia, the herb be the

Only thing keeping a youngblood sane, in this land of lames

Too late to switch lanes, this runs through my veins

Planes be the metaphor for me, flying high above but hard to see

Split the red sea and head to Cali, let's be all new people

Stay high as a steeple only now shit is legal
