[Tyler, The Creator, Rex Orange County - Foreword lyrics]
You have a question?
How many cars can I buy
'til I run outta drive?
How much drive can I have
Until I run outta road?
How much road can they pave
Until I run outta land?
How much land can it be until
I run in the ocean?
Niggas go with the motions and all the plans
See, I was never into the
Beaches and all the sands see, I was in the
Woods with flowers, rainbows, and posies
Fallin' outta my pocket
But y'all want to know if I swam to cool down
How much cooler can I get until
I run out of fans?
How many fans can I have until
They turn on the AC?
If the AC blow up, well then I'm TNT
I'm gone
I'm gone and I'm finished
And I ain't seen my friends in a minute
Guessing nothing lasts forever
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
Nothing sticks together
Sick of sitting in doubt
Please let me figure this out, out
Shout out to the girls that I led on
For occasional head and always
Keepin' my bed warm
And tryin' their hardest to keep
My head on straight
And keepin' me up enough 'til I
Had thought I was airborne
How many raps can I write 'til
I get me a chain? How many chains can I wear
'til I'm considered a slave?
How many slaves can it be
'til Nat Turner arise?
How many riots can it be
Until them Black lives matter?
Niggas click-clack splatter
(Pew) pew that nigga
Life a game of basketball
You better shoot that nigga
'Cause if that cop got trigger
He better pull (yeah)
'Cause when I get pulled over
I usually play it cool (Skrt)
'Cause I know what I'm drivin'
Is usually paid in full
And my ego and possessions
Will not let me be one (Nah)
Because I got a mansion
My mansion got some rooms
Them rooms got some windows and
My windows got some views (Yup)
Them views get some stares and
My backyard does too
And if you walk to the bottom
You'll prolly see a pool
You better not drown, keep them ten toes up
'Cause if them ten toes down
That mean that you fucked up
And that's what I swim in
And if I drown and don't come back
Who's gonna know? (Maybe then I'll know)
And if I crash and don't come back
Who's gonna know? (Maybe then I'll know)
And if I fall and don't come back
Who's gonna know? (Maybe then I'll know)
I'm wondering if I don't come back
Maybe then I'll know don't come back
Don't come back ayy, don't come back
Don't come back no, no
