The Helium Balloon Lyrics - The Album About Nothing - Wale

So you're the balloon, you've got that helium, and we travel with you through the string. So we're going up there with you even though we're on the ground. We can't fly, I can't sing, I can't make music, but I can get a-- I can buy it. So I can get a balloon. I can't fly, but I can get a helium balloon 

I used to put my faith in the yarn, and now communication is gone 

I agree we've gone distant, my new location the charts 

Naw, mm, can't count the days, but let's just say five 

Years, coming of age, it make you blow by your day job 

So cry for me, wild for me 

It's a horror story, eyes 20/20s that I-M-E your normal C 

And I'd be different gettin' diplomas in peace 

But gettin' applause and across, I'm hittin' Diplo for a beat 

Slight work to Dahi, it's a purpose y'all see 

In a world of dopplegangers, niggas ain't worth the copy 

You capiche? You got me cold 

Niggas'll fly you up this high, won't let you fly to the moon 

Goin' up!

POPULAR SONG: Travis Scott 'HIGHEST IN THE ROOM' - LYRICS 

NEW SONG: DaBaby - 'Vibez' - LYRICS 

They love your moves made 'til you make moves 

Achievin' new feats every few 8 shoes 

16, took a nigga dream different 

Had SOBs lookin' like it's new Supreme in it 

See that the line's been beastin' 

The main attraction, I got 'em hangin' their cleats up 

I've been keepin' it G 

It's levels to this fellow, hello I resemble the cheat codes 

Some shit good, some shit fly 

Some love to see you blow, they don't want see you pop 

Shit good, some shit nah 

Some shit recycled like second timers in Tour de France 

First you picked up, now you pick the part 

You get too fun 'til your core fans au revoir 

They like, "You stuck with us, cause you let him fly" 

Swear this life is like a helium balloon, I'm sorry 

But I gotta fly 

Now when a kid gets a helium balloon, he's holding that string and he's keeping this balloon from going anywhere. But he also wants to let it go 

Gave you a contract, stay true through all that 

Came through with Ross, writin' bangers for y'all 

But I ain't lose my content, fuck all that nonsense 

Diverse with rappin', I'm a writer with passion 

Tell the purist that laugh I don't reach out for daps 

Cause "No Hands" triple platinum 

Better writings for retail, why not see my detail? 

Gettin' box office spins, only box I fit in 

Is by thigh on a female 

So they hatin' me for that, sayin' I just make women songs 

It's perfect style every, versatile got me right where her walls at 

Still know what my core needs, so fuck who ignores me 

For I need niggas, I purchased 3 mirrors and show y'all what's for me 

So he wants to let it go and he wants to catch it. Eventually he loses it, he doesn't want to lose it 

Why they give a fuck about the songs I write? 

As long as my tugs and my fans been nice 

Movin' forward with my life 

Crucify me, man of Jesus Christ 

Man I do 'em no favor 

Cause 'nough of them are traitor 

Them a real bite, biter 

Them are try take your glory and your energy 

Buffalo soldier 

Send us a sentimental gangster 

I mean a sinner, boy me 'fraid of 

Them are try take your glory and your energy 

Whatever, tell 'em it's whatever 

Wanna see me good or never see me better? 

Fuck 'em, can't say nothin' 

Cause the same hand heal you might cut you 

Fuck 'em, you ain't sayin' nothin' 

Cause the same hand heal you might cut you 

Whatever, tell 'em it's whatever 

Wanna see me good or never see me better?
