JORIS - Zoot lyrics

I flick my lighter as I'm
'bout to light a zoot
I'm tokin' on a spliff and then
I get ash on my shoe i brush it off quickly
Cuz I gotta be home in 2
If my mom sees my red-eye then I'm
Hidin' in the loo

She's bangin' on the door
Saying "Look me in the eye"
I'm plannin' my excuses
"Oh yeah, I got a stye"
And I didn't get much sleep, Mom
I promise I'm not fried
I don't do that stupid stuff no more
I promise I ain't lyin'
Then I open up the door
And my eyes meet hers
Her jaw drops and she just stops and says
"This family has a curse" then I frown
I'm confused askin' "What do you mean?"
First your uncle now it's you
Can you stop smokin' weed

I flick my lighter as I'm
'bout to light a zoot
I'm tokin' on a spliff and then
I get ash on my shoe
I brush it off quickly cuz I
Gotta be home in 2
If my mom sees my red-eye then
I'm hidin' in the loo

She points her finger
Chattin' wass on my excuse
I just stand there like a lemon
And I'm takin' the abuse
Stoned as fuck, smiling
Tryna turn this into a truce
Then I go to the fridge

In need of some juice
And I yoink a Capri-Sun
That shit is my groove
Then I chuck it down the hatch
And cough it up as if it's booze
Her mouth is an alarm
I wish I could hit snooze
I wish my mom was calm
I wish she was acceptin'
I wish she didn't care
But, it's doin' some effectin'
I'm pullin' out my hair
Stressing out, think it's getting to me
No shit you've had a 'mare

But at least you know your limit's
And you're very self-aware
But with these things I ain't timid
But, I always stay beware
Of the things that could happen
Like drownin' in despair

That won't happen lad you're cappin'
The worst that could happen
Is passin' out on the couch
With a spliff in your mouth
And that don't sound too bad
You must be going mad

(going mad)
