Lungelo Manzi, TeaBag, Yashna - Lorraine Lyrics

Surf's up on this instrumental (wavy)
I be a per diem to an incidental (sorted)
Trap door on the residential
Yeah they got one too (well)
But that's a rental (oh)
Young, black owners (mmm)
Yeah we be them
Trying to find a tag with the price of freedom (still looking)
We don't ever see the benches (we don't see them)
They don't even see the trenches (they don't see them)
They don't ever reach for wrenches
Imagination got 'em on some deep adventures (what are you doing?)
Lately I just feel I'm ancient
It gets dark, I feel I ain't shit (there's no ad-lib for that)
But I'mma build a clan, yeah a Wu thang (Wu thang)
With my MOT, that's my boo thang (boo thang)
She's been crushing on me since siyi'ntwana (standards)
Damn I really miss those summers

We would talk about fake friends
New lows on the same ledge
New hope with the changes
See when we graduate, shit
We on the gram with your new life
With a gram in your new pipe
Talking 'bout patience
Black dreams and the basics
How making music never made sense
Making reparations
For your fam and the most high
For the friendships
You lost trying, trying
Double-tapping where no one sees you unless you're winning
Letting feelings convert the reasons
They never witnessed
Rolled through it to understand every card missing
Smoked through it to sing wherever the Gods hear it
Seeking wisdom no dependence on single parents
Severed blessings from single women I never let in
With a vision and all the missions I made to get it
Still a vision to tell my mama the bills are finished

Steady selling a piece for the brand made (brand made)
Steady selling a beat for the meal saved (meal saved)
Playing circles I keep for the same thing (same thing)
Look me dead in the eye when I'm on stage (on stage)
Sweet Lorraine, sweet Lorraine
Don't you go from me (when I'm on, when I'm on)
Sweet Lorraine, sweet Lorraine (when I'm on, when I'm on)
Don't you go, don't you go from me (don't you go)
Don't you go, don't you go from me (don't you go)
Sweet Lorraine, Lorraine , Lorraine
Sweet Lorraine, Lorraine , Lorraine

Sometimes dropping out still gets to me
Sometimes all the pride still comes between
Meeting up with all friends who got degrees
New place, new car, new babies
Sometimes I pretend you're dead to me
Sometimes I resent your destiny
Meeting up with old friends's too much for me
You're too much to see, you're too done to keep
All we seem to share nowadays is student debt, uh
In the small talk, I seem to mumble another plan, uh
In the small talk, I see the money you seem to have, uh
In the small talk, you see the rebel you should have been
All gone so awkwardly when I lost it
Being friends only through popularity contests
Slipping through the system I slid away in the context
I slit a way in the context

Steady selling a piece for the brand made (brand made)
Steady selling a beat for the meal saved (meal saved)
Playing circles I keep for the same thing (same thing)
Look me dead in the eye when I'm on stage (on stage)
Sweet Lorraine, sweet Lorraine
Don't you go from me (when I'm on, when I'm on)
Sweet Lorraine, sweet Lorraine (when I'm on, when I'm on)
Don't you go, don't you go from me (don't you go)
Don't you go, don't you go from me (don't you go)
Sweet Lorraine, Lorraine , Lorraine
Sweet Lorraine, Lorraine , Lorraine
Don't you go, don't you go from me (uh-uh)
Don't you go, don't you go from me
Sweet Lorraine, Lorraine , Lorraine
Sweet Lorraine, Lorraine , Lorraine

A little proud, a little sad and embarassed
To be that nigger they clown still on the mattress
Scrolling through all your grad pics thinking
Damn, shit, I'm still that nigger they wait on, prayed on
A little sour, a little mad and imbalanced
To be that nigga they clown still with a talent
Scrolling through all the madness thinking
Damn, sh*t, I'm still that nigga they wait on, prayed on
Steady selling a piece for the brand made
Steady selling a beat for the meal saved
Playing circles I keep for the same drain
Look me dead in the eye when I'm on stage, yeah
Look me dead in the eye when I'm on stage, yeah
Steady selling a piece for the brand made
Steady selling a beat for the meal saved
Playing circles I keep for the same dream
Look me dead in the eye when I'm on stage, yeah
Look me dead in the eye when I'm on stage, yeah

One day at a time
One day at a time
One day at a time
One day at a time
When finding closure (One day at a time)
I won't forget how it feels to love (One day at a time)
When finding closure (One day at a time)
I won't forget how it feels to love (One day at a time)
When finding closure, (One day at a time)
I won't forget how it feels to love (One day at a time)
Finding closure, (One day at a time)
I won't forget how it feels to love
To love (with some anxiety in my back-pocket)
To love (smile on my face when the land cometh)
