Lyrics KOTA The Friend – Rivers
Text:
Grass all in my feet, sun beaming on my shoulders
I look out to the ocean, I sit and smell the roses
I been at my low, sipping all on this potion
Running along the coast and hiding deep in the forest
I just want a house by the lakeside
Run away soon as I get the fame ride
My soul drift but it more like hang glide
Got a lot of demons but I throw them to the wayside
I smoke hard like I ain’t seen a hard day’s work
And I know that it could be way worse like
Imma never die, and I don’t even gotta take percs
So that I can feel like I can take earth
Man I don’t even try
Lately I’ve been outta my mind
Never interested in the time
Spent years in the dark
Just enough to make a nigga feel blind
Niggas still trying to take my shine
But it be all love
Until somebody try to get tough
Gotta tell them to remember where I’m from
In a cold rain city where the kids gotta act grown up
I’m in Arizona raising my sons, finna leave it all
Grass all in my feet, sun beaming on my shoulders
I look out to the ocean, I sit and smell the roses
I been at my low, sipping on all this potion
Running along the coast and hiding deep in the forest
What day is it?
I been in my own world
Steady taking trips to new rounds
Just so they can pay bills, smoke an eighth of piff
We off course
In the all black four door
All smiles ’cause we ducking all laws
We just chilling on the shore
Wind blowing feeling like I’m gon’ soar
Forgotten that a nigga still poor
‘Cause I’m feeling tight rich
I’m high up off the way that I live
Man I used to dream of days like this
‘Cause I’m feeling so good
And I ain’t even scared of my death
Meditate on every one of my breaths
I’m just on another plane
And I ain’t even talking ’bout jets
If you waiting on me know that my left
About a couple years back
When I put up every one of my racks
Put my soul in every one of my tats
But you know it though
Grass all in my feet, sun beaming on my shoulders
I look out to the ocean, I sit and smell the roses
I been at my low, sipping on all this potion
Running along the coast and hiding deep in the forest
I’ve been to dark places
Contract sales with the snakes kid
All I want is peace, no love
Nice beach, no drugs
Yeah I’m cold, no hugs
Nigga I know that I ain’t shit
I could be the terrorist you’re looking for, ISIS
Grab a gat and run up in the liquor store
Hijack planes, can’t hide that pain
Gotta let the shit loose ’til they think you insane
Niggas think I’m insane?
You don’t even wanna fucking know
Wear my heart on every one of my clothes
So they know that I’m real
And that’s the kind of life that I chose
Kept a G in every sentence I wrote
Look me in my eyes
Telling you this what you gon’ learn
Hear you talking, I don’t trust your words
So I’m taking my leave
To the sunny place of my dreams
On a riverboat floating downstream
Try to picture that
Grass all in my feet, sun beaming on my shoulders
I look out to the ocean, I sit and smell the roses
I been at my low, sipping on all this potion
Running along the coast and hiding deep in the forest
