A Wake Lyrics - The Heist [deluxe Edition] - Macklemore

I need love 

You need love 

Give me love 

And I'll give you my love 

They say thirty is the new twenty 

And twenty is the new thirty shit I guess 

Makes sense, cause fifteen year olds seem twenty 

And twenty five year olds seem ten 

I used to drink away my paycheck 

Celebrate the mistakes I hadn't made yet 

Our generation isn't the best on safe sex 

We forget the latex, becoming Planned Parenthood patients 

Synthetic heroin is the new basshead 

So much to escape, fuck a straight edge 

Walk around looking through a fake lens 

Apps this good, whose got time to make friends? 

I wish I didn't care 

And cynical hipsters with long hair 

Cocaine problems, like my music 

It's not my issue, I can't solve it

NEW SONG: Machine Gun Kelly - 'Candy' Lyrics feat. Trippie Redd 

My flight has finally landed down 

And the ground has stopped moving all around 

Eyes open, awake for the very first time 

We both forfeit this game of crime 

They say it's so refreshing to hear somebody on records 

No guns, no drugs, no sex, just truth 

The guns that's America, the drugs are what they gave to us 

And sex sells itself, don't judge her 'til it's you 

Ah, I'm not more or less cautious 

The rappers rappin' 'bout them strippers up on the pole, copping 

These interviews are obnoxious 

Saying that it's poetry is so well spoken, stop it 

I grew up during Reaganomics 

When Ice T was out there runners killing cop shit 

Or Rodney King was getting beat on 

And they let off every single officer 

And Los Angeles went and lost it 

Now every month there is a new Rodney on Youtube 

It's just something our generation is used to 

And neighbourhoods where you never see a news crew 

Unless they're gentrifying, white people don't even cruise through 

Photos 

And my subconcious telling me stop it 

This is an issue that you shouldn't get involved in 

Don't even tweet, R.I.P Trayvon Martin 

Don't wanna be that white dude, million man marchin' 

Fighting for our freedom that my people stole 

Don't wanna make all my white fans uncomfortable 

But you don't even have a fuckin' song for radio 

Why you out here talkin race, tryin' to save the fuckin' globe 

Don't get involved with the causes in mind 

White priveledge, white guilt, at the same damn time 

So we just party like it's nineteen ninty nine 

Celebrate the ignorance while these kids keep dying 

My flight has finally landed down 

And the ground has stopped moving all around 

Eyes open, awake for the very first time 

We both forfeit this game of crime 

I need love 

You need love 

Give me love 

And I'll give you my love
