Slow Motion

I can hear the ringing through the morning

But I'm too delirious to wake up

In the shower thinkin' how to get some money

Guess I got relationships to shake up

Look across the street, I see a crossover in traffic

Helicopters and low wage jobs

Desperate for a hit of nicotine

I hate the feeling when I take a day off

ET on my sneakers, Cardi on my speakers

I'm living here for the night

Cooking up a heater, tryna be a hero

And I got my shoes untied

Been running in slow motion

And I wonder if we'll make it

It's been so long

That sometimes I lose my hope but

Hope it's all not for nothing

Hope I gave it all for something

I can see the city falling underneath the shadows

Near the metro bus that stays parked

Blinded by the flashing lights the red and blue ain't nothing nice

So when you see 'em stay far

I'm nowhere close to peaking, not the one for speaking

Turnin' up form time to time

I just had to reach in, started to believe that

I could get myself untied

Been running in slow motion

And I wonder if we'll make it

It's been so long

That sometimes I lose my hope but

Hope it's all not for nothing

Hope I gave it all for something

Day after day

Day after day

Day after day

Day after day

Day after day

Day after day

Day after day

Day after day
