Earl Sweatshirt - Old Friend lyrics

Mm-mm, mm-mm, uh

Strong spirit where the body
Couldn't get asylum the cost of living high
Don't cross the picket line and get the virus
Wild cat has got 'em in a bind, stay inside
Know I came from out the thicket smilin'
Mad hatters cappin' every line
It doesn't matter to the ten of five
They start hackin' when they can't shrink us
I found the middle in a bit of balance
Fever in the cabin
I knew where we was headed
I ain't countin' no blessings
I sure as shit could measurе
Blinkin' for some feasible mеthods
To free yourself
Split it with my hand like cigarill's
Slick oil in a fish' gill
I fill a void with the pen, feel the fear
Shrill couple stains that I couldn't shield
My brother, Brain, that we couldn't shield
Couple came, couple went still
And what remain of the wolves, nil
I held the page, gave the book ears
Whispered "Thanks", hella pain
Heavy rain in the Catskills
Played the shade, quite a deal
Glad we stayed friends
