Kick came weird — yeah I like that nah don’t clean — leave that buzz — If it break a bit, run it back once keep that bend — don’t make it nice — wait… still kinda off? yeah leave it like that [Rap 3] wait — run that kick late — love that grid off — don’t touch still hit — good enough fan still on — leave that sound low end shake — table move around cheap wire pop — blink then gone cut for a sec — still goes on [Rap 4] I don’t walk straight on a crooked line that tilt right there — yeah that’s mine miss one cue — still ride it out trip one step — still in it now dust on it — make it feel more real tiny mess — yeah need that feel too lined up — I skip that fast need that odd in the speaker glass left side drag — kinda feel okay right side rush — I let it stay [Hook – Short] Leave it wrong — why you fix that? Kick came weird — yeah I like that keep that bend — don’t make it nice [Bridge] one take — little off but fine no redo — that’s how we run it if it sits weird — let it sit, don’t trim say it once — don’t say again that small crack — where it bends [Break] hold — drop kick miss — then lock breath in — wait then hit — late [Final Hook] Leave it wrong — why you fix that? Kick came weird — yeah I like that nah don’t clean — leave that buzz — If it break a bit, run it back once keep that bend — don’t make it nice — wait… still kinda off? yeah leave it like that [Outro] leave that noise — leave that lag don’t go clean — drag that drag half wrong lines — still in mode don’t fix that — just let it run one more pass — nah let it bleed rough is all I really need …keep that bend leave it crooked at the end
