World of Adults - Ekoh

'Cause you know, every once in a while, I get it

The words flow and I ain’t gotta worry about a sentence

Why you talkin' 'bout dreams and how to push limits

I learned to never fall in love until the product’s finished

Yeah, and sometimes I forget to smile

Sometimes I find myself a little in denial

And sometimes, I’m not the man that I portray to be

Sometimes, I’m OK with actually bein' me

I got this now, full of loose ends

And while you lookin' for 'em

The life’ll show you the true friends

I hope this pad leaves us somethin' great

Holdin' my breath 'til I make it until I suffocate

We let these scars grow deep, and

We learn to love by gettin' thrown into the deep end

So, if you think life sucks, get ready

'Cause you don’t know much about this, man

Ayy, and we can speak until the word travels

Just a kid tryna fit into a world of adults

Because you know what they say

«Eventually, you gotta grow up and meet the world», ayy

And we can speak until we find courage

Just a kid tryna fit into a world of purpose

Because you know when you lose

Eventually, you gotta grow up and learn to love you

Yeah, me and my baby built this glass home

And metaphorically speakin', we got some masks on

Yeah, we’re in a difficult endeavor 'cause

We keep throwin' these rocks at the ceiling

To see who hits it better

Right, I always win, this ain’t even a challange

All the destruction is easy, I’m tryna build some balance

Yeah, see, I’m a man without a wife

She’s a lady goin' crazy, convincin' she gives the best advice

Maybe she does and I don’t listen

I’m too busy tryna cook up another excuse inside the kitchen

That’s why this glass house is fallin' down

And there’s a million others fallin' all across the town

So, all the flaws and the make-up, tryna get your cake up

Work, sleep, wake up

Do it again that’s the cycle of the game

But I learned you can’t appreciate the sun 'til you felt the rain

Ayy, and we can speak until the word travels

Just a kid tryna fit into a world of adults

Because you know what they say

«Eventually, you gotta grow up and meet the world», ayy

And we can speak until we find courage

Just a kid tryna fit into a world of purpose

Because you know when you lose

Eventually, you gotta grow up and learn to love you

I found me in the breakdown

But how much can you take now?

I been lost of all hope

But, you can’t break me down

You can’t break me down

You can’t break me down, no!

See, I see everybody tryna live perfect

And when they die come to see the persuit was never worth it

No regrets, fuck up the mistake to encourage

Make sure your homies really miss you at your funeral service

As life don’t come with a safety belt

Even the drugs can’t numb the feelin', nah

I mighta lost my way, but I learned

That I’ma never fall in love 'til the coffee’s made

Ayy, and we can speak until the word travels

Just a kid tryna fit into a world of adults

Because you know what they say

«Eventually, you gotta grow up and meet the world», ayy

And we can speak until we find courage

Just a kid tryna fit into a world of purpose

Because you know when you lose

Eventually, you gotta grow up and learn to love you
