7. Can’t you tell that my sample of Adele was so hot I got these hood (expletive deleted) blowing up my cell? (Freaks and Geeks - Childish Gambino; guessed by Rose)
8. The bittersweet between my teeth. Trying to find the in-betweens. Fall back in love eventually. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
9. With that same big loud opinion but nobody listening. Wash up and ranting about the same old bitter things. Drunken, rumbling on about how I can’t sing.

15. And now after some thinking I’d say I’d rather be a functioning cog in some great machinery serving something greater than me.
16. Mama once told me, “you’re already home where you feel love.”
17. You stare out your window at the passing cars and you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars. No you’re never quite happy right where you are.
18. She says you’re a rambling man. You ain’t never gonna change. You got a gypsy soul to blame and you were born for leaving.
19. I wanna darken the skies, open the floodgates up. I wanna change my mind, I wanna be enough.
20. You watched them handcuff me lady and walk me through my own home. I’ve never been so humiliated. I don’t think I deserve this from you.
21. Trying to grow flowers in your bull (expletive deleted). You’d put out the sun if you got a hold of it.
