Fuck it, got money, bought friends like I'm TBS VVS, I can see it all with the clarity Real deep, hope they dig a nigga 'fore they bury me Even though we were told to go where they wouldn't go Hella slow, that's that dial up, watch it pile up, fly Andrew Auernheimer Pulling on her weave, it's that Andrew Auernheimer Andrew Auernheimer Pulling on her weave, it's that Andrew Auernheimer Andrew Auernheimer Pulling on her weave, it's that Andrew Auernheimer Andrew Auernheimer Pulling on her weave, it's that Andrew Auernheimer We are the dreams of our parents lost in the future Who hide the deepest desires and wear a mask like a lucha— Door open, we were smoking in the hotel The vapors went through the hallway, the manager pissed as hell I mean, where's the line between Donny-G and Gambino?

He hang with girls like he Lena, but needed some time to re-up Tequila in the cantina, 30 dollars I swallowed The Sauza so malo (I nuzzled my Nyla) Then she said, "You need to grow up You been doing this for too long That Camp was a million years ago, sing me a different song."

Whether you're trolling or controlling, just a reminder You think you get it, you don't, it's that Andrew Auernheimer

I'm gone—Now I'm back Give a fuck or give 'em hell, just not a chance to react Tyler Durden, this burden hurting, they said there was curtains Certain demise, look in his eyes, the pain inadvertent I could've stayed where I was and had a life you'd be proud of But I'd rather chase things never thought of It was all love, saying, "Go hard" Making dope, it's a trap; Ackbar backfired Panic dreams, so it seems we're meant to die I had to figure it out; "It's the best," no, that's a lie Had to get some stuff off my chest, I vaporized High on my own, it took time to realize Because the internet, mistakes are forever But if we fuck up on this journey, at least we're together Man, I wish I could go back and tell that kid it's make-believe Make him believe in himself, people who needed my help Feelings I felt, killing myself, no one's ever been this lost I just get the information, retweet it or say it sucks I just got the motivation, your talent's just bunch of luck Hard work and dedication, but lately it's run amok Waking up in these places I don't remember Texts from people I never met, doors left open (Who is this? Don't do it, where are you?

Who is this? Who is this) I don't know who I am anymore

Still on the beat though Still in the game, but he move with a cheat code Slowest connection ever, my life inside a computer Them bands that'll make her dance, my wallet's Lollapalooza The violence, first-person shooter First person to move, first person to speak My mils aren't meek, they scream in the streets Losing my frame of reference, these pieces of shit for breakfast Funny, the day you born, that's really your death sentence I met this girl at a dinner, we conversatin' She beautiful in the face, but her voice is truly amazing Plus she write her own shit, becoming so close knit Smoke up and talk in the evening, she helping me focus No Anna Nicole Smith, she getting hers Niggas take her props, like a musical, live and learn She say she feel alone all the time, I'm similar I meet her in my dreams, on the moon, I visit her Every night I text her, "I wanna solve the world, I think I need your help" She text me, "How you gon' trust somebody when you don't trust yourself?"

I mean she right though, .45 like a lightbulb And I could've died like my iPhone, but I kept going like a psycho And I took Chance like a dice roll, dropping jewels like it's puberty Wrote a note on the glass: "You see what these labels do to me?"

Text said, "I'm wet"; I said, "Hold up, wait a minute" H2O plus my D, that's my hood, I'm living in it Never forget this feeling, never gon' reach a million Eventually all my followers realize they don't need a leader Stay on your own shit, fuck what these clones think Just remember that you the shit, but act like it don't stink We were childish, but had to grow up When you spitting real shit, eventually you throw up Realities like allergies, I'm afraid to go nuts "Life: The Biggest Troll", but the joke is on us Yeah, the joke's you showed up

You're here now You have to help me You have to help me I need you—you have to help me You have to help me You have to help me Please help me Please help me Please, please help me Please—

This is on a bus back from camp I’m thirteen and so are you Before I left for camp I imagined it would be me and three or four other dudes I hadn’t met yet, running around all summer, getting into trouble It turned out it would be me and just one girl. That’s you And we’re still at camp as long as we’re on the bus And not at the pickup point where our parents would be waiting for us We’re still wearing our orange camp t-shirts. We still smell like pineneedles I like you and you like me and I more-than-like you But I don’t know if you do or don’t more-than-like me You’ve never said, so I haven’t been saying anything all summer Content to enjoy the small miracle of a girl choosing to talk to me And choosing to do so again the next day and so on A girl who’s smart and funny and who, if I say something dumb for a laugh Is willing to say something two or three times as dumb to make me laugh But who also gets weird and wise sometimes in a way I could never be A girl who reads books that no one’s assigned to her Whose curly brown hair has a line running through it From where she put a tie to hold it up while it was still wet

I find my dad in the parking lot. He drives me back to our house and camp is over So is summer, even though there’s two weeks until school starts This isn’t a story about how girls are evil or how love is bad This is a story about how I learned something and I’m not saying this thing is true or not I’m just saying it’s what I learned I told you something. It was just for you and you told everybody So I learned cut out the middle man, make it all for everybody, always Everybody can’t turn around and tell everybody, everybody already knows, I told them But this means there isn’t a place in my life for you or someone like you Is it sad? Sure. But it’s a sadness I chose I wish I could say this was a story about how I got on the bus a boy And got off a man more cynical, hardened, and mature and shit But that’s not true. The truth is I got on the bus a boy. And I never got off the bus I still haven’t

Back in the real world we don’t go to the same school And unless one of our families moves to a dramatically different neighborhood We won’t go to the same high school So, this is kind of it for us. Unless I say something And it might especially be it for us if I actually do say something The sun’s gone down and the bus is quiet. A lot of kids are asleep We’re talking in whispers about a tree we saw at a rest stop That looks like a kid we know And then I’m like, “Can I tell you something?”

And all of a sudden I’m telling you And I keep telling you and it all comes out of me and it keeps coming And your face is there and gone and there and gone As we pass underneath the orange lamps that line the sides of the highway And there’s no expression on it And I think just after a point I’m just talking to lengthen the time Where we live in a world where you haven’t said “yes” or “no” yet And regrettably I end up using the word “destiny” I don’t remember in what context. Doesn’t really matter Before long I’m out of stuff to say and you smile and say, “okay” I don’t know exactly what you mean by it, but it seems vaguely positive And I would leave in order not to spoil the moment But there’s nowhere to go because we’re on a bus So I pretend like I’m asleep and before long, I really am I wake up, the bus isn’t moving anymore The domed lights that line the center aisle are all on I turn and you’re not there Then again a lot of kids aren’t in their seats anymore We’re parked at the pick-up point, which is in the parking lot of a Methodist church The bus is half empty. You might be in your dad’s car by now Your bags and things piled high in the trunk The girls in the back of the bus are shrieking and laughing and taking their sweet time Disembarking as I swing my legs out into the aisle to get up off the bus Just as one of them reaches my row It used to be our row, on our way off It’s Michelle, a girl who got suspended from third grade for a week After throwing rocks at my head Adolescence is doing her a ton of favors body-wise She stops and looks down at me And her head is blasted from behind by the dome light, so I can’t really see her face But I can see her smile. And she says one word: “destiny” Then her and the girls clogging the aisles behind her all laugh And then she turns and leads them off the bus I didn’t know you were friends with them
