Asked About You - Oddisee

These are good days for bad people, sad sequel

To a unrated story 'bout the underrated, told

By the makers of the evil and still I’m lining up to get a preview

Glory to the most wise, we came here on boat rides, wavy

Yet the ground beneath us seeming bone dry

How much for a maybe?

How much for a know why

Cost an arm and leg to get ahead and you get no eyes

Shades on at night can’t bring the light, I see the demons

That hang around us on evenings and party with us on weekends

Ain’t numb enough, so I’mma keep the sleeping pills on tables

I count on them to counter all the fables I believe in

Cause I just want to keep on dreaming but dreams are for suckers Attracted to

your tears, sweatin', bleedin'

Grew a pair of fangs, called a brain left and right

I’m hungry and my bark far lesser than my bite

I’ve been thinking about you

And all the things you’ve been through

Has anybody stopped to ask you

Hey, how you doin'?

I’ve been thinking about you

And all the things you’ve been through

Has anybody stopped to ask you

Hey, how you doin'?

I’m far more concerned with the cause

Although it’s the effect that is receiving the applause, or uproar

Either way it’s hands up like a yep y’all

And I’m just trying to get down to the bottom of a rut wall

Giving faces to the hatred, trying to figure out the bases of humanity’s

disgraces

If I’m not mistaken, a Roman and a German met a Viking

On an island that was occupied by Britons

They became the British after fighting

And they merged into a Titan

That became really good at killing white men

Somebody thought it smarter to do it to people darker

Until now we harbor what was docked at the harbor

I’ve been thinking about you

And all the things you’ve been through

Has anybody stopped to ask you

Hey, how you doin'?

I’ve been thinking about you

And all the things you’ve been through

Has anybody stopped to ask you

Hey, how you doin'?
