Evolve Benton - 10 Ways to Survive in Los Angeles Lyrics

I wash my hands often
Hand sanitizer isn't an option
Napkins is the password

I call my grandmother every Sunday
She reads the bible daily
I ask her God's plan
She tells me what happened on CNN

Laugh my belly full when my cousin breaks both of his hands against a wall
I'd say the wall won this battle
Our lack of mental clarity makes us more family than our blood

Sign up for the newsletters, unsubscribe from the newsletters
Six months later sign up for the newsletters
Pay attention but give no attention to assholes

Write poems at 3am about a delicious woman you met
At the ARCO on Hoover and 24th

Get used to death and mourning
Black suit stay pressed
Inhale a gram of Trainwreck on your way to show respects

I started painting pictures of the Lorde on my notebooks
I prefer to be scared out of hiccups

I often pay respects to ancestors in the kitchen
Smother and fry the whole damn apartment
Smudge the pain away

Baldwin quotes magnified on my refrigerator keep me grounded
Palm trees for shade and décor

Purple and gold everything!
Go Lakers!
