Because of the Good Life - Sofia Klavo

The first time that i met her I was throwing up in a ladies room stall. She asked me if i needed anything I said i think i spilled my drink. And that's how it started. (Or so i'd like to believe) She took me to her mother's house outside of town Where the stars hang down. She said she'd never seen someone so lost. I said i'd never felt so found. And then i kissed her on the cheek. And so she kissed me on the mouth. Oh oh oh oh. Spring was popping daises Around rusted trucks and busted lawn chairs. We moved into a studio in council bluffs To save a couple of bucks. Where the mice came out at night. Neighbors were screaming all the time. We'd make love in the afternoon To chelsea girls and bachelor number 2. I'd play for her some songs i wrote She'd joke and say i'm shooting through the roof. I'd say they're all for you dear. I'll write the album of the year. And i know she'd love me then. I swear to god she did. Because the way she'd bite my lower lip And push her hips against my hips. And dig her nails so deep into my skin. The first time that i met her I was convinced that i had finally found the one. She was convinced i was under the influence Of all those drunken romantics. I was reading Fante at the time. I had Bukowski on my mind. She got a job at jacob's Serving cocktails to all the local drunks. Against her will i fit the bill I perched down at the end of the bar. She says space is not just a place for stars. I give you an inch you want a house with a yard. And i know she loved me once. But now those days are gone. She used to call me every day From a payphone on her break for lunch Just to say she can't wait to come home. To come home. To come home. Yeah home. The last time that i saw her She was picking through which records were hers. Her clothes were packed in boxes With some pots and pans and books and a toaster. Just then a mouse scurried across the floor. So i laughed until it didn't hurt. I laughed until it didn't hurt. I laughed until it didn't hurt. Ah right.

I cant face all my problems cuz I need a taste of the good life I could sit and tell you lies but I might be straight this one time I only wanna feel you next to me Girl I touch you my heart skips a beat Its never too late to take another day Lets live tonight Buy that Mercedes go crash off the lot We tryna get crazy just catching a buzz I am so reckless you are so fine No more impressions we are undressing Interstate ten down memory lane I feel like I know you, been hoping n praying Im fixing to show you love we gone make it I feel the connection this a blessing Go take a marker and lets save the date No medication love numbing the pain Birthplace of music others are clueless We're gonna do this it must be our fate Too much confusion? Exiting optional No convolution maneuver the obstacles Future of everything all up to us Mission no longer impossible I cant face all my problems cuz I need a taste of the good life I could sit and tell you lies but I might be straight this one time I only wanna feel you next to me Girl I touch you my heart skips a beat Its never too late to take another day Lets live tonight I think I love you but this is realm is limited I think I really forgot what forgiveness is A little bit of pomegranate Burts Bees Wax in my pocket No time to reminiscence when you running out of options One fifty a zip lines crossing don't be a hostage The name of the game is survival be cautious Text me when you get home texting on a flip phone its been known I been finessing things like a Flintstone lets get stoned I need a Chris clone my lips sewn She unbuttoned my trousers and let out a big moan Now its a blessing that I'm healthy Instead of popping pills feeling helpless I dont think you understand the hell I've seen I cant face all my problems cuz I need a taste of the good life I could sit and tell you lies but I might be straight this one time I only wanna feel you next to me Girl I touch you my heart skips a beat Its never too late to take another day Lets live tonight Words like dragon glass we ain't having that Take yo average ass and see ya way out back Sacagawea, this sack of weed will bring closure to your financial needs What is he talking about his words hit me like a needle Up at the ass crack of dawn making beats Flexing my words flying around like an eagle Next thing you hear he a rapper and a singer Bitch please I manifest my destiny Your two tone Lexus don't really impress me Bitch please I manifest my destiny Your two tone Lexus don't really impress me Pass this down to my grandkids an investment I never really had shit but I'll always have this It shows what you can do when you active Stay low key always implement action I was unhealthy a bit now I see I do it for myself with no distractions
