Marlon Craft, Dizzy Wright - Shallow lyrics

I been drinkin' I been thinkin'
I been livin' off of credit
Not even Washingtons or Lincolns
But i came in here to party
I’m with all the minglin’
I’ll regret it prob’ly
But i ain’t even trippin’

I’m like yo, Yo yo yo yo girl sing it to me
I’m like yo, Yo yo yo yo girl sling it to me
I’m like yo, yo yo yo yo girl give it to me
I been in this game a minute don’t you
Treat me like no rookie baby no

Don’t play no games
Shit go down don’t say no names
Known him so long call Jame-o James
Come kick it where we livin'
And there ain’t no pain like yo
I need be numb for the night yeah
I don't believe in a type yeah


I’m gonna need me some life tonight
Been in and out my head
They was tryna give me meds
I was like nah ya'll the feds
Now they scream crafty for prez
I say no to powder, pills
All that krillz that for the heads
But for this bottle I’m a toddler
Momma momma lemme get
Do my best to be a man of substance
Double enten’, double enten’
Tryna fill wholes with this
Liquor and clothes
And a bad bitch rubbin' my arm
Tellin me one more and we gonna get gone
Good ‘cause i don’t like waitin’ a lot
Little bit of rhythm in
The liver will deliver
When you simmer from that little
Hidden pain that you got, ah

Yo, yo yo yo yo girl sing it to me
I’m like yo, Yo yo yo yo girl sling it to me
I’m like yo, yo yo yo yo girl give it to me
I been in this game a minute don’t you
Treat me like no rookie baby no

I been feelin’ shallow
I ain’t say i was proud though
Why do this come so natural
I must be an asshole i been I been I been I
Been I been feelin' shallow

I was feelin' like my body started sinkin'
I went vegan for some reason
But I, didn’t give up drinkin'
Hennessy all in my liver my rhythm
Gon help me go get em whenever I need her
But they tryna offer me pills and thangs
Drownin' my mind but that
Don’t sound like freedom
I’m talkin' bout a waste land (a waste land)
Tryna find an escape plan (escape plan)
Ya'll know I'm a made man (a made man)
Still tryna watch out for the
Snakes tryna shake hands
But it is what it is
I ain't proud but I did what I did
Shallow niggas gon’ live how they live
I just learned that you get what you give
Complainin' every day is pointless (aw yeah)
Don’t listen to the wrong voices (yeah yeah)
Here go a joint you enjoy this (hell yeah)
Connectin' the dots with craft you bitches
Still gotta make an appointment
(for real tho)
But I’m indulgin' even if it’s
Only for the moment
Tellin' her homie to pour me a shot
Ready or not i know where I’m goin'
Slid on her like

Yo, yo yo yo yo girl sing it to me
I’m like yo, Yo yo yo yo girl sling it to me
I’m like yo, yo yo yo yo girl give it to me
I been in this game a minute don’t you
Treat me like no rookie baby no

I been feelin’ shallow
I ain’t say I was proud though
Why do this come so natural
I must be an asshole i been I been I been I
Been I been feelin shallow

I ain’t say I was proud though
Why do this come so natural
I must be an asshole i been I been I been I
Been I been feelin' shallow

I'm lonely i can turn a W to an L
I'm lonely
I can take something wonderful, make it hell
I've been trying to fill a
Void I don't understand
I don't know it's shape
Eyes closed tryna fit different shit
In this empty space
To no avail, I'm lonely, it's cold as hell
In the part of my soul where
Love and the noble notions dwell i'm lonely
I don't get what I'm looking for
But I search on
Tryna make a map of places I've never gone
I'm lonely shit ain't everybody?
I wash my head with this human condition
But I don't feel cleansed i feel lonely, yo
Been avoiding time with myself
And now I owe me
Though every time we're together I
Focus on something phony
I don't wanna settle, shit
Sometimes I'd rather be unhappy
Than to be alone tell myself I need a bone
But truth is that I need a home
I've been rationalizing time
That's spent with
People that don't inspire me
Bein' lonely sucks
I'm starting to lose my spirit's trust
Scared of what I want
I've been starting to fear my lust
If I can't tell myself the whole truth
Then the lyrics must
Like I should come here to stroke
But I know I came here to bust
Man made most of my woes be
Feel like we do half of what
We do because we bored, we just be lonely
I feel like most people rather use
Me than to know me
I feel like I'm a bitch, 'cause I
Got it good but be feelin' bad, like
Cockiness is just fear in drag
I see a lot of Ru Paul's of emotions
I say I ain't judgin' a lot, but I do
And I know it wish I was more easy going
Maybe I wouldn't feel lonely
But sometimes we ain't inclined to be
The man we want to be
Like, shit, without this critical lens
I couldn't see but I don't know
'cause there's a lot of things
I thought I couldn't be
And I'm starting to become all them
Maybe there's hope for us
It's the most self-involved
And the most communal rhyme
We're all in search of these
People who can relate
Their absence negative space
Shit, without them, there is no alone
So I know they're out there for me
Or I wouldn't feel so lonely
I remember when it wasn't cool to feel lonely
And somewhere along the way
Kid Cudi made it okay
But now, we fetishize it
It's a style to be tried
And take this pill, if you don't like it
You don't have to feel lonely
That ain't never been me
But I ain't that far
Buzz buzz goes the sound
Of the antidepressant notifications
I'mma need me three grams and some mentions
Tell me you like the online me
So the real me don't feel so lonely
I'm just bein' real homie
This ain't a sad song
This ain't a mad song, but I do worry, cause
I've been tryna write some next level shit
Lately and this is it, so I'm scared
That my loneliness makes me, like
Do I need it to shine? What
If I leave it behind?
Will I die young if I just
Continue to bleed from my mind?
And I guess that's something that
Only time can show me, but
For now I gotta go, shit
I'm late to meet the homies lonely
