"I really was born at 9:29am on 9/29

You think I'm lying but I'm being dead serious"

"I gotta see this birth certificate"

"Ok I'll prove it"

Well who am I

I'm almost 25

Can't remember half the time that I've been alive

Cause half was in a cheap apartment

And half was on the eastside

Eastside

They said don't meet your heroes

They're all f**king weirdos

And God knows that they were right

Because nobody loves you

They just try to f**k you then put you on a feature on the Bside

And who do you call when it's late at night

When the headlines just don't paint the picture right

When you look at yourself on a screen and say

"Oh my god there's no way that's me"

And I I quit smoking well recently I've tried

And I bought another house and I never go outside

And I remember this girl with pink hair in Detriot

Well she told me

She said "Ashley you gotta promise us that you won't you die

Cause we need you" and I honestly I think that she lied

And I remember the names of every single kid I've met

But forget half the people who I've gotten in bed

And I've stared at the sky in Milwaukee

And hoped that my father would finally call me

And it's just these things that I'm thinking for hours

And I'm picking my hair out in clumps in the shower

Lost the love of my life to an ivory powder

But then I realized that I'm no higher power

And I wasn't in love then

And I'm still not now

And I'm so happy I figured that out

I've got a long way to go until self-preservation

Think my moral compass is on a vacation

And I can't believe I still feed my f**king temptation

And I'm still waiting for my salvation

Soft and slow

Watch the minutes go

Count out loud so we know you don't keep them for yourself

Watch the minutes go

Count out loud so we know you don't keep them for yourself

"I think I have a confession to make

So we know you don't

See I was really born at 9:26

It's on my birth certificate I'm a liar

I'm a f**king liar"

Soft and slow

Watch the minutes go

Count out loud so we know you don't keep them for yourself
