Cocaine and candy, both got a grip, One for the pain, one soft on the lip. Bittersweet drip when it sit on the tongue, High from the weight, low from the love. Nights feel long when the heart ain’t steady, Mixin’ two things that was never ready. One too numb, one too sweet— Both got a hold and it ain’t that deep. Cocaine and candy… She came through with a slow-type stare, Eyes like storms, lips like prayer. Sayin’ things I ain’t meant to hear, But I let ’em sit right behind my ear. Back of my mind got ghosts on spin, Still I let her in with the sugar on skin. Smoke in the room, but we still pretend, Like peace come soft through a touch again. She sweet when she’s close, cold when she vanish, Highs got teeth and the lows do damage. I sip what’s left with a bite like habit, Feel too much, then I try not to panic. Cocaine and candy, both got a grip, One for the pain, one soft on the lip. Bittersweet drip when it sit on the tongue, High from the weight, low from the love. Nights feel long when the heart ain’t steady, Mixin’ two things that was never ready. One too numb, one too sweet— Both got a hold and it ain’t that deep. Cocaine and candy… I been floatin’, I been bent, Heart got holes where the hope went. Candy talk sweet ‘til it don’t make sense, Cocaine hit cold like a consequence. We just kids with grown-type scars, Still play soft with our broken parts. She say, “Don’t love me too hard,” But I only know how to fall too far. I take what’s left when the buzz wear thin, She pull back just to reel me in. Say love real, then it twist in grin— Like the devil wear lace and cinnamon. I ain’t tryna fix what don’t wanna heal, But I ride the rush ‘cause at least it feel. She half heaven, half just real, Cocaine edge with a candy seal. Cocaine and candy, both got a grip, One for the pain, one soft on the lip. Bittersweet drip when it sit on the tongue, High from the weight, low from the love. Nights feel long when the heart ain’t steady, Mixin’ two things that was never ready. One too numb, one too sweet— Both got a hold and it ain’t that deep. Cocaine and candy…
