TAKARA - Coffee (feat. yef)

Haven't had my morning coffee
Yet to roll out of the bed
Tired eyes barely open
They're cutting onions in my head
Yeah they got me where they want me
Fighting the voices that ain't there
20 minutes out the door though
Girl you gotta go go
Cause a bitch gotta pay the rent

But it all goes away when the day goes dark
And I turn do not disturb on
As I'm lying there quietly holding on
Hoping I don't wake up till dawn

There's a mirror in the TV
Playing back the things I said
Like do these people even see me
Or do I imagine they are there
Uninvited to my pity party
There's no way that I won't argue
Disassociation on my end
Going with the flow knowing the world will never owe her
And she's responsible for herself

But it all goes away when the day goes dark
And I turn do not disturb on
As I'm lying there quietly holding on
Hoping I don't wake up till dawn'
My makeup it hides all the bags I own
No Hermes it's just her alone
Draw the lipstick line up above my cheek bones
So my smile hides the exhaustion

You might think that I'm always chill
I do things that you wouldn't believe
I stay calm when the waves go still
I put my heart right on my sleeve
19 when I hit my first mil
And me and TK had our songs on repeat
I won't drown even though I got deadlines
Tryna defend my inner peace
I see my name in all of the headlines
So I extent my winning streak
Say it's a game but it's never that simple
If it was it'd be hide and seek
I excel and for that I'm the symbol
So there's silence whenever I speak

But it all goes away when the day goes dark
And I turn do not disturb on
As I'm lying there quietly holding on
Hoping I don't wake up till dawn
My makeup it hides all the bags I own
No Hermes it's just her alone
Draw the lipstick line up above my cheek bones
So my smile hides the exhaustion
