Jhene Aiko - Trip Lyrics






LSD

How you like it up there?
What's your view from there?
I bet it's so cool to jet across the moon
That's how I picture you in my head
Can't get outta my bed
Ever since you had left
Don't got nothin' left
Walkin' 'round half dead, still
Have faith, half baked
We were halfway to Hana
We did some shrooms and we smoked marijuana
Came all this way to escape all our problems
Came all this way just to break every promise
And do
Everything you said I shouldn't do
But those things bring me closer to you, yeah

So the other night, I
Took a tiny piece of paper and put it under my tongue
This white guy said it'd be fun, and it was, but
What I saw
Oh my God
Oh my God

Jukai

Oh I, oh I
Oh I, oh I
Oh I, oh I

If anyone should try and find me
Just know I'm where I wanna be
I left the house all clean and tidy
Don't come searchin', please

I've made my way down to the forest
Way down to the sea of trees (the sea of trees)
The eagle grows, it gets enormous
And then it has to bleed
All the way out
All the way out
On my way out
I found a way out
Up in a tree
Up in a tree
Could you believe it?

Wouldn't you believe
Hell is not a place
Hell is not a certain evil
Hell is other people
Or the lack thereof
And their lack of love
And their lack of love
I tried, but my feet kept touchin' the ground (touch the ground)
If I died, would it even make a sound in the sea of trees? (sea of trees)
No need to bother lookin' for me
Don't come, don't come, don't come searchin' for me
You don't get to die until you get it right, you said
I envy the dead, yeah

I'm way out, I'm way out
I'm way down in the sea of trees
I'm way out
What is that I see?
Starin' back at me
Okay now
I'm okay now
Alive, alive
Made it out alive
Made it out alive

Surprise, surprise, surprise
Surprise
I'm out alive
Made it out alive
Made it out alive
Away, away, away

"What are you doing out here?"
"I don't know"
"What's your name?"
"Penny"
"Are you okay?"
"I think you saved me"

While We're Young

Baby, while we're young
I think we should do something crazy
Like say "F*ck everyone"
And just run away from the daily routine
Yeah, you know what I mean

I'm tellin' everybody you're mine and I like it
And I really hope you don't mind, I can't fight it
No, you know I cannot hide it 'cause I am so excited
That I finally decided on you

'Cause it's been another perfect day with ya
Wanna lay with ya
Spend the night with ya
Then spend my life with ya, alright
Alright, alright
Yeah, you heard me right

I'll go everywhere you go (I'll go everywhere you go)
You know I'll go, I'll go
Everywhere you go (I'll go everywhere you go)
You know I'll go, I'll go
Everywhere you go (I'll go everywhere you go
You know I'll go, I'll go)
Everywhere you go (I'll go everywhere you go)
You know I'll go, I'll go

Uh, baby, while we're young we should just have fun
We should just do whatever we want
And tell everyone that we fell in love with each other
Ooh that we found the one in one another

I'm tellin' everybody you're mine and I like it (I like it)
And I really hope you don't mind, I can't fight it (don't fight it)
No, you know I cannot hide it 'cause I am so excited
That I finally decided on you (oh yeah)

'Cause it's been another perfect day with ya (perfect day)
Wanna lay with ya (wanna lay)
Spend the night with ya
Spend my life with you, alright (alright)
You know I'm down to ride (you know I am down to ride, you know I am down to ride)

I'm giving you my heart, please don't break it
Take it and lock it up and put me in your pocket, love
Alright, right by your side

I'll go everywhere you go (I'll go everywhere you go)
You know I'll go, I'll go
Everywhere you go (I'll go everywhere you go)
You know I'll go, I'll go
Everywhere you go (I'll go everywhere you go)
You know I'll go, you know I'll go, you know I'll go
(I'll go everywhere you go, you know I'll go, I'll go, ooh)

Baby, while we're young
We should rush and do something dumb
We should, we should, we should
We should just say "F*ck everyone"
And walk hand in hand to the sun

Moments

[ Featuring Big Sean ]

These are the moments in time that we've been waiting our whole life to find
That we've been searching for, all through the night
Just tell me that we'll be alright
'Cause, baby, in a world full of cancer
Where everyone needs a ransom
My mama said "love is the answer"
So when I call you better answer me
Right now I need you here on me
No substitutes, you're the one and only
Please take away the stress I don't need
You got me on my knees, baby, James Brown bliss
The time is ours, not for borrow
Both got a past full of sorrow
Let's cancel everything tomorrow

I always get caught in the moment
With you, with you
With you, with you
With you, with you
I get caught in the moment
With you, with you
With you, with you
With you, with you
I get caught in the moment

Hey, the past, that's history
The future, that's a mystery
The present, that's a gift, that's why they call it the present
I can't watch the news lately, it's been too depressing
I'd rather be with you, bodies pressing and decompressing
So much smoke in the air, look like we need decongestant
I know you need protection
I tell you what to do whenever you need direction
You know I'm overworkin', I cut the check like director
Take me daily, as directed
'Cause, baby, in a room full of dancers
You still are the answer
These other hoes nothing to focus on
I need somebody real to get close upon
Lookin' for someone who don't annoy you when they overstaying
It's looking like I am like one A.M
I could put you to sleep faster than melatonin
Us zoning, wishing I could freeze-frame the moment

Oh yeah
With you, with you
With you, with you
With you, with you
I get caught in the moment
With you, with you
With you, with you
With you, with you
I get caught in the moment

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hol' up
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You better freeze the moment, seize it, own it
Focus is on it, our time to go in
'Yo time be on it
Lose yourself and find something you won't let escape the moment, yeah
Everything you need to be contented is right here
Right in this minute
You can have it when you understand that all that matters is right here

OLLA (Only Lovers Left Alive)

[ Featuring Twenty88 ]

Fireballs falling out, out of the sky, sky
Ricocheting off the brain into the eye, eye
It's the fate we created in our mind, mind
If we stay, we'll be hated
Looks like we're the only lovers left alive

We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Lately we've been running all our lights to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
We're the only lovers left alive

'Cause they don't believe us, they'll keep us from freedom
And being beings of light, beacons of light
'Cause they don't believe us, they'll keep us from freedom
And being beings of light, beacons of light

Fireballs falling out, out of the sky, sky
Ricocheting off the brain into the eye, eye
It's the fate we created in our mind, mind
If we stay, we'll be hated

Tell me how you love me again
Tell me how you feel often, often, often
Tell me how you love me again
Tell me how you feel often, often, often
Tell me how you feel, tell me how you feel
Tell me how you feel, tell me how you feel
Tell me how you feel, tell me how you feel
Tell me how you feel, tell me how you feel
We're the only lovers left alive

We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Lately we've been running all our lights to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
We're the only lovers left alive

'Cause they don't believe us, they'll keep us from freedom
And being beings of light, beacons of light
'Cause they don't believe us, they'll keep us from freedom
And being beings of light, beacons of light

Yeah, so sweet
I guess we the roses that grew from concrete
I can't even picture you without me
That's too sad to see like a pic of Mobb Deep
You never lied, never game me bad vibes
And we in over our head like we getting baptized
And that's a feeling money can't buy
Baby girl, you matter to me like black lives
I've been daydreaming these nightmares
Of me waking up and you not there
So crazy, my lady, I look at you, I wanna have a hundred babies
Raising hell 'til we see Heaven gates
We gon turn 100 when it's 2088
And I'ma look at you and say, "Ay"

We're the only lovers left alive
Under the sun
I'm drunk, baby, I'm drunk
I'm drunk, baby, I'm drunk
We're the only lovers left alive

Ooh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Time for backwards skate
Couples only, couples only
If you don't got a lil' bae to play, get off the floor
Couples skate backwards, lovers only
It's the end of the world, y'all, it's the end
This is for lovers only
Come on, one, one-two, one, one-two, one
Back, yeah, slow, uh, slow, back

We're the only lovers left alive
We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Lately we've been running out of light to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
We're the only lovers left alive
We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Lately we've been running all our lights to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive

Sativa

Yeah, oh
Oh, yeah
Why you make it so complicated?
Off the drink, we concentratin'
I know you won't leave me hangin'
Smokin' weed out the container
We spend cash for entertainment
There's more where that came from, that's all I'm sayin'
It's me and you and we makin' arrangements
It's you and me and we makin' arrangements
Is it hot in here or is it just me?
I'm so high in here, been smokin' on this weed
Told 'em, "Go on, take a shot on three"
Told 'em, "Drinks is on me"
Yeah, the drinks are on me
I said, "Now go and take a shot on me"
Only drug a bitch is on is the tree
But I lasted ten rounds like a freak
Like a G
Get ready (oh, yes, I'm ready)
Now we're on (and if we're on)
I said I'm ready (I said I'm ready)
Hold the phone (please hold the phone)
Get ready (oh, please get ready)

It's you and me and we makin' arrangements
I'll keep it simple, baby
I'ma keep it simple with you, baby
You know I don't ever play no games
You know I don't ever complicate it
Got me feelin' some type of way
Concentratin', concentratin' on the way
You keep the rhythm
Oh my God, I'm glad you came
You came through with that sativa
Indica be havin' me stuck
You know just how to keep me up
You know it, better believe it
Get ready (oh, yeah, I'm ready)
Now we're on (and if we're on)

New Balance

"I can't put my finger on it
I don't know, it's, it's weird
It feels like I've known you my whole life
I know what it is
You remind me of my brother"

Most of us are angry
Most of us are strangely
More alike than we'd like to believe
Most of us are empty
Most of us are simply
More alive in the scenes of our dreams

Then there's you
You've got something I've been wanting, ooh
You're so new
Ooh
You're my salvage, you're my balance, ooh
You're so new

Most of us are hurting
Most of us are searching
Someone to love
Someone to understand
Most the time I'm fighting
Multiple voices residing
In my head

Then there's you
You bring silence to my violent truth
Yes, you do
Ooh
You're my salvage, you're my balance, ooh
You're so new

It hit me like a tidal wave
Knew that I was in love with you right away, yeah
Turned all my days into brighter days
Even when people say what we do is not okay
According to what the people say, yeah
Who cares what other people say?
Man, f*ck what other people say
I'ma ride for you
Baby, if you gon' ride for me, yeah
'Cause I know, yes I know
That what we have is oh so real
And oh I feel so confident in
All you say
When you say
You'll never leave
You'll never leave
Please never leave
Yeah, I believe you
Yes, I do

Most of all I am thankful
You are just what I prayed for
You are what I was made for
Yes, I'm for sure
Most of all
I just want to mean the most to you
Most of all, baby, I'm just tryna grow with you
I just wanna go with you
'Cause you bring so much hope to the picture
Some of us do find the one
To fall in love
And off of the
F*cking face of the Earth with
Some of us do deserve it
A love that's true and perfect
Some of us been through it all before
Some of us do still come back for more

You Are Here

Spotlight

Hope you are, hope you are who you say
If you aren't who I thought
It'll break my heart

Hate to ramble on about it
I am not too proud about it
I've been on the run, I've been tryna ride around it
I've been tryna go around it
It's too much, I am astounded
Wow
You're too good to be worth a shot
What are you not saying that I should know?
'Cause I should know
If you're for sure or all for show

Don't play with my love, messing with my heart
That's gonna be tough for you to pull off
Gave me a new start, taking it too far
It's gonna be hard if you really aren't
Who you say that you are

Hope you are who you say you are
Hope you are who you say, you are the one
If you aren't who I thought
It would break my heart
Hope you are who you say you are
Hope you are who you say, you are the one
If you aren't who I thought
It would break my heart

Caught me slipping, I was tripping and I almost gave up
Now I'm living in your vision, I don't wanna wake up
From a dream, lover, I'ma lean on ya
Please don't lead me on
You know I don't play that
How I'm living, I don't want no payback
From a past lover, bad lover
Please don't do me wrong

Don't play with my love, messing with my heart
That's gonna be hard for you to pull off
Gave me a new start, taking it too far
It's gonna be hard if you really aren't
Who you say that you are

Hope you are who you say you are
Hope you are who you say, you are the one
If you aren't who I thought
It would break my heart
Hope you are who you say you are
Hope you are who you say, you are the one
If you aren't who I thought
It would break my heart

Break my heart, don't break my heart
I pray to God, don't break my heart
Don't break my heart, it's all I got
I swear to God if you break my heart

Tell me that it's something special
Tell me you never felt it
Tell me I'm your new obsession
Tell me that you really are the one
If you aren't who I thought
It would break my heart

Never Call Me

[ Featuring Kurupt ]

Oh boy, I'ma have to call them boys on you
Aw damn, aw damn, I'ma have to call that man on you
Something, something, something must be really wrong with you
Why can you just tell the f*ckin' truth now?
Yes your mama did, she raised a fool, wow
What the f*ck did you learn in that school house?
To chasin' thrills, takin' pills in the hills
Slauson Hills, Overhills might get you killed

Do not run your mouth no more

You knew all along that I wasn't the one for you
So let's stop pretending like we were in love
We never shared anything but the drugs
We were both numb, never had anything real between us
We really must
Smoking that crazy shit, in my city talkin' crazy shit
But you ain't know I'm a crazy bitch
And tell your lawyer that I ain't paying shit
Maybe you should chill, really in your feels
My bros really in the field
Neighborhood is really real and they don't play that here
You shouldn't say that here
You should've made it clear, my dear
You should've called me

You should've called me
Why you never call me?
Why you never call me?
Oh, you should've called me
Why you never call me?

Nobody

Attention is expensive to pay
I can't get by on minimum wage (no)
Been dealing with this venomous rage
Since I was under the age
I've been under the influence of pain

And I never needed nobody
Never needed no one
No, I don't need nobody, nobody, nobody
I don't need no one, shit, I don't need no one

F*cking up my chakras again
My father is a doctor, I've been talking to him
All the shit I'm taking, coulda got it from him
I don't have no patience, prolly got it from him
Just a product of him
Pop one, pop two, pop three, four pills
These pains tell me how life should feel
F*ck yeah, f*ck you, it's my free will
So please don't tell me to chill

'Cause I don't need nobody
I don't need no one, I don't need no one
No, I don't need nobody, nobody, nobody
I don't need no one, I don't need no one

No one ever listened, no one called me pretty
Everybody called me Penny, I think I am worthless
I don't have a purpose
Who am I enough for?
Why we always lose what we work for?
Why we hurt more?
Why we never see my mother cry?
She's so tough for us, poor her

She don't need nobody, nobody, nobody
She don't need no one, she don't need no one
So I don't need nobody, nobody, nobody
I don't need no one, I don't need no one
I don't need

(Take this) grab my purse with my prescriptions in it
(Take this) tiny bursts of optimism in them
(Take this) I'm reversing my decision to win
(Take this) take this, take this, take
(Take this) back to '88 when everything was great
Then life had just begun
(Take this) it is '89 now, everything is fine now
I am only one
(Take this) wait for the 2000 and summer
I'ma be a mother, wow
(Take this) 2000 'til summer, it just got tougher
I don't have my brother now
Take this, take six, take pics, faces, famous
Face it, fake shit, pain is faithless
Yes, I am aware I am tripping
I'm here in this hell that I don't wanna live in
I smoke on my own, I drink on my own
I know it's wrong
The people I know, they just wanna know what's going on
I can't tell a soul, no, I can't tell no one
Don't need nothing from no one
No, I don't need nobody

But you're not alone, you got me
Look, I know what'll make you feel better

Got me, got me over here overstimulated
Crushing the line, cutting the line, crossing the line
Bumps in the night got me, got me over here, over

Why you never stay for long? You always go so fast
Who's gonna hold my hand when I'm crashing?
Took you without looking now I'm looking up the side effects
Feel like there a fire set
That I should be dying next, my regrets
Oh, my regrets

Over here overstimulated
I need your light, I need your light, I need your guidance
Anything twice, I'll be alright, I wanna try it

Aren't you the sweetest thing
I almost can't believe
Why you still sleeping on me?
That's okay, you can keep dreaming

I am alone, I am a misfit
I'm in the zone, no competition
I am the one, so you should listen
Don't f*ck it up, don't wanna miss it, yeah

I am the light, I am the light, I am the highest, yes
You have me fried, and I am the light and I am the lightest
Crushing the line, cutting the line, crossing the line, bumps in the night
Got me, got me over here over
Why you never stay for long?
You always go so fast
Who's gonna hold my hand when I'm crashing?
Took you without looking now I'm looking up the side effects
Feel like there's a fire set
That I should be dying next, my regrets
Oh, my regrets

Over here overstimulated
Let's get one thing clear, bitch, I am the greatest
You are not my peer, you are overrated
Know you mad I made it, know you hate it
But I'm in this bitch like

And if my heart goes out right now
This goes out to you, you you
And if my heart goes out right now
This goes out to you, you you

What the f*ck did you give me?
Oh, no no, chill, chill
Huh?
Are you okay?
Did you see that?
I don't know what you're talking about
Oh my God!
Relax, relax
Get me out of here
Why would you do this to me?
Someone give her some water

Bad Trip (Interlude)

I'm having an awful time
You said you would get me high
But you took me out of my mind
Way down to the other side
Bad trip
On a bad trip
On a bad trip
On a bad trip

Like a child in a womb, with no room to grow
In a world I didn't know, I'm confused and cold
Oh no
Now you show me all the things I could never see
In a new reality I cannot believe, not believe
Bad trip

(I thought you loved me)
(Someone get me some help)
(You told me you loved me)
(You're a liar, you're a liar, I hate you, I hate you)
(Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God)
(Where am I?)
(Just calm down)
(Don't touch me)

Oblivion (Creation)

[ Featuring Dr. Chill ]

Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah ah

The world's a f*cking mess
It's gone to shit
And I am every bit a part of it
I may have started it
I try to find a brighter side
An elevated, higher sight
It's out of sight

Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to no one
Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to nothing

My life's a f*cking trip
It makes me sick
I am so jaded and I hate it
I'm faking it
I try to find a greater shade
To be the way
To lead the way
I need to wait

Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to nothing
Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to no one

There's no lovin without losin'
There's no livin' without bruisin'
There's no limit, no delusion
Sweet oblivion
There's no lovin without losin'
There's no livin' without bruisin'
There's no limit, no delusion
Sweet oblivion

The world's a f*cking mess
It's gone to shit
And I am every bit a part of it
I may have started it
I try to find a brighter side
An elevated, higher sight
It's out of sight, out of mind

Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to no one
Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to nothing

My life's a f*cking trip
It makes me sick
I am so jaded and I hate it
So I stay faded
Try to find a greener shade
To be the way
To lead the way
I need to wait
I need to stay

Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to no one
Oblivion
Wish I would go back
I could go back to no one
Sweet oblivion

There's no lovin without losin'
There's no livin' without bruisin'
There's no limit, no delusion
Sweet oblivion
There's no lovin without losin'
There's no livin' without bruisin'
There's no limit, no delusion
Sweet oblivion
Swee-ee-eet
Sweet oblivion, sweet oblivion

"Dear brother
Am I still asleep?
Last night I saw you
And you told me there was coin laundry on the moon
I met a boy, he wasn't right for me
But now that I'm alone
I can hear the spirits talking"

From the methaphysical to the physical
From the methaphysical to the physical
From the inside out
Let there be no doubt
Sage, means sagacity and intelligence
That's why the indigenous people burned it
To bring out the wisdom
If you talk to your plants, they will talk to you
If you talk to your plants, they will talk to you
And they will nourish you
Nourish you to a greater creation
Hmmm

Mystic Journey (Freestyle)

Closer to my destiny
Closer to the connection
Closer to what I'm destined to be
Closer to you
Closer to my destiny
Closer to the connection
Closer, we are connected
Don't you feel your connection to me?

Think it's how you and I take it all the way
Take this thing further than
Anyone has seen
Take this love, give it 'til we're in harmony
We become greater when we are truly
Better as a collective
Better when we're connected

Closer to the connection
Closer to my destiny
Closer to the connection
Closer to what we're destined to be

Take the time, get it right
We could find a way
Take this love, give it 'til there's no suffering
We become better when we can stand as one
Rise above, no more war, some more peace and love

Better as a collective
Better when we're connected
Closer to the connection
Closer to what we're destined to be
Closer to you
Closer to my destiny
Closer to the connection
Closer to what we're destined

Picture Perfect (Freestyle)

Picture perfect, you are
Picture perfect, you are
Picture perfect to me
So I keep you in a frame
Keep that frame in my brain

When I don't want to see
What is in front of me
I, I do see you perfectly
Too perfect of a thing
Too a perfect, you're a dream
Too good to touch
Too good, too much
Much too perfect to be reality

Picture perfect to me
Picture perfect
You and perfect me, I am and we are free
We are pure and we are sure
And we're together how it was
How we were born to be
I remember still
I do see you still
Perfectly
