Marlie's Song - Hoodie Allen/Jared Evan

I used to have a dream I could buy my way to heaven

Even made a promise that I never would forget it

Dreams are kinda fuzzy after exiting my bed

And now the only way to keep it locked up inside of my head

Is just to sing it over

Like the melody remembering the details

Like all the times when they had me working retail

And all the times where we got no love from females

But now I'm getting boxes like an email

They wanna figure out

How this little sprout came to blossom

How it takes so long to figure out I'm f**king awesome

You be on the internet but never came across him

Guess you weren't looking in the right place the right place

Shout out to Elizabeth Smart

If you ain't livin' for today then you livin' tomorrow

And they recycling my style then claiming its borrowed

I guess I'm helping the environment doing my part

I'm too young to die

Mama don't you cry for me

Just wait for me wait for me

We can live our life

Just like the other side

Isn't it meant to be meant to be

Nice clothes nice hair nice outfit

Nice to finally meet you I can tell you ain't about shit

And I'm a Leo so you know I'm tryin' to pounce it

Ask me where I'm livin' and

I'm givin the address of all the couches at my friends house that I crashed at

And then she dipped on me left me with a hashtag

A broke rapper from a gap ad

But now I'm Indy 500 and I'm livin' on the fast track

So watch me as I pass back and jump up like NASDAQ

I know you couldn't imagine that from the kid who livin' in his backpack

Well I made a promise to my mamma

Imma be a better man

And it took a couple months

And I got a couple grand to show for it

I take the subway no chauffeurin'

I make em proud baby go for it

Cause I be stayin' underground like I gofured it

If you afraid to be alone then get over it

I'm too young to die

Mama don't you cry for me

Just wait for me wait for me

We can live our life

Just like the other side

Isn't it meant to be meant to be

I know you'll never think its fair

But Marley baby don't compare

Cause its too hard to relate to you lately

If the good die sooner than the bad words

Then give me one reason not to have fun

I feel like we're falling away

I'm too young to die

Mama don't you cry for me

Just wait for me wait for me

We can live our life

Just like the other side

Isn't it meant to be meant to be
