[Intro: James Fauntleroy]
~#**************#~
Stay close to me, so close to me
~#**************#~
Thats how its supposed to be
~#**************#~
Long as youve been knowing me
~#**************#~
You been holding me down
~#**************#~
Im sure as fuck, so fuck hopefully
~#**************#~
I watch over you, you watch over me
~#**************#~
And thats how its supposed to be
~#**************#~
And we are, alright
~#**************#~
[Hook: James Fauntleroy and Big Sean]
~#**************#~
Now, when the worlds ablaze, the stars all fall
~#**************#~
The lights go off
~#**************#~
Say its going to be, alright
~#**************#~
Its going to be, alright
~#**************#~
Cause, when the worlds ablaze, the stars all fall
~#**************#~
The lights go off
~#**************#~
Say its going to be, alright
~#**************#~
Its going to be, alright
~#**************#~
[Post-Hook: James Fauntleroy & Big Sean]
~#**************#~
So could you just tell me itll be, tell me itll be
~#**************#~
Tell me itll be, just tell me itll be
~#**************#~
Tell me itll be, tell me itll be
~#**************#~
Tell me itll be, just tell me itll be
~#**************#~
Tell me itll be, tell me itll be
~#**************#~
Tell me itll be, tell me itll be
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
~#**************#~
“Might not make it this time”
~#**************#~
Is what not to say at this time
~#**************#~
Sometimes, the truth aint what you need to hear
~#**************#~
And you tell them they alright, knowing they need a cure
~#**************#~
How Imma believe in paradise if I dont see the sand
~#**************#~
Only palm trees I got is this weed off in my hand
~#**************#~
Around the same time my mom said “Sean, you need a plan
~#**************#~
Miss Freemans son, across the street got shot, now she need a hand!”
~#**************#~
Traumatized, God oh whys his momma cry
~#**************#~
Now I gotta look up, up in his momma eyes, gotta tell this momma lies
~#**************#~
Like, “Its gonna be alright,” knowing it aint alright
~#**************#~
And I know its so much pain, and theres probably more on the way
~#**************#~

[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
You know I love you momma like she mine
~#**************#~
Whether we together, or we trying
~#**************#~
We fuck, three times, we smoke, tree times
~#**************#~
We climb, I left, came back in town, it wasnt in time
~#**************#~
The cancer done came, it just hit its prime
~#**************#~
It came from the breast, just spread to the spine
~#**************#~
It might make her blind, she stare at the blinds:
~#**************#~
“This cant be my mom!”
~#**************#~
Got me thinking, “whats a girl to do, a girl to do?
~#**************#~
When her worlds a pool?
~#**************#~
And she comes up for air, and its walls of flames
~#**************#~
And all the stress is all propane
~#**************#~
Shes burned again”
~#**************#~
Hoping I could make her smile
~#**************#~
Take cancer and David Blaine it out
~#**************#~
POOF! Disappear, God make an out!
