Riverside
part 2 of 2
8 No Love in the Heart of Town
Hot summer day
Fetty Wap heavy rotates
Done pretendin' to find a God charades
Besides feelin' not havin to try, nothin's changed
Jumped in 1 after another place
Robbed different ways
Just lookin' for that hazy summer lake, under the tree shade
9 Sunset
Frequencies and wavelengths
Through certain rivers human waste fish
Grassland swamp gasses on the way out the Secaucus train lift
I guess for what time'll forget to say, you shouldn't've waited
10 Texts
Your skin's got tanned more than a bit beige
Past this time before we've stayed
It's already dark
A mess my room and head are
I'm just layin' down in bed
The air conditioner's to the coldest set
My phone plays music that I'm listenin' to on my chest
This heart pumps the sqwak's of seagulls at sundown but you could feel the stress
Then as well, the smallests of moments spent'll carry on in our steps
A couple of flashbacks stuck of what you had said
I reach for the chilled water and receive a notification of 1 of your texts
We met the loneliest of nights in a cold winter
Those summer vibes have been 'er
She's a girl just like you but brown
Ever findin' her I'm not sure of in my small town
11 Anime
Iriko dashi in the air from a miso soup steam
On a table's unsweetened green tea
Black wave curl locks shag on tan skin
Black, a bit round and square frames tipped over half shut brown eye's lids
A light grey hoodie and burgundy joggers transition from Osaka to skater fit
12 Skateboards, Weed and Rap
"Yo, yo, it's the cops, run's!" not what i ever tried to hear
Gettin' busted for somethin' so mere?
How times wasted findin' better deals, you'd think it took place by the piers
Now, it's not so much of the dream it would be, that it's near
