VIET-COFFEE

VIET-COFFEE [Intro] “Yeah, hey, I’ll take one large Vietnamese Coffee iced and…. Yummmmmm… is that a scone? Yeah I’ll try that scone. Thanks” ⸻ [Verse 1] Walked in sleepy, eyes half dead Vietnamese coffee spot— sounds kinda lit Tiny little cup, sweet cream on top One sip in and my whole damn nervous system popped Leg start shaking, vision went weird Heart started beating like a war drum in my ears Lady at the counter smiled real calm Meanwhile I’m spiritually preparing for a fucking atomic bomb I said “yo what’s IN this shit?” She just laughed like “coffee” — bitch I know that ain’t it This ain’t caffeine, this a government scheme I can suddenly hear colors and smell my dreams Now I’m outside pacing in circles Sweating through my shirt looking purple Hands vibrating, jaw clenched tight Pretty sure I blinked and lost six hours of my life ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] TOO MUCH ICE TOO MUCH BEAN TOO MUCH SWEET CONDENSED CAFFEINE Chest going crazy, can’t sit still Think this little coffee tryna straight-up kill ⸻ [Chorus — hard, shouted] VIETNAMESE COFFEE GOT ME OVERCLOCKED HEART GOING STUPID LIKE IT’S BOUT TO POP ONE SMALL CUP NOW I CAN’T FEEL MY FACE I’M SWEATING THROUGH MY SHORTS LIKE I RAN A CHINESE RACE OH SHIT—MY PULSE TOO QUICK SEEING GOD OFF A LITTLE CAFFEINE KICK IF I DROP DEAD JUST KNOW THIS BIT: THAT COFFEE HIT HARDER THAN A MOTHER FUCKING BRICK ⸻ [Verse 2] Tried to drive home—BAD idea Thought the stop sign whispered “I have a fucking knife, ima alive like I’m even not a sign— I’m a fucking alien and I know where you live ” Radio sounding like ancient chants Meanwhile my heartbeat doing the Riverdance I can physically hear my bloodstream in my ears Now I’m googling symptoms at 2AM “Can caffeine make your soul leave your skin?” Every website saying “you’ll be okay” Then why my body vibrating three feet away? Yango walked by and I got startled Dropped my phone and vaulted a garden hurdle Copper the Cat looked at me and I almost cried ‘Cause I thought that little dude could see inside my mind ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] TOO MUCH ICE TOO MUCH BEAN WHY MY HEARTBEAT SOUND LIKE A DRUM MACHINE? Need some water, need some prayer Need somebody checking if I’m still there ⸻ [Chorus] VIETNAMESE COFFEE GOT ME OVERCLOCKED HEART GOING STUPID LIKE IT’S BOUT TO POP ONE SMALL CUP NOW I CAN’T FEEL MY FACE I’M SWEATING THROUGH MY SHORTS LIKE I RAN A CHINESE RACE OH SHIT—MY PULSE TOO QUICK SEEING GOD OFF A LITTLE CAFFEINE KICK IF I DROP DEAD JUST KNOW THIS BIT: THAT COFFEE HIT HARDER THAN A FUCKING OLD DUMB ASS STUPID PISS FACED BRICK ⸻ [Bridge — slowed down, paranoid] I can hear my heartbeat… In my teeth… Shouldn’t have ordered the LARGE and killed the whole thing— [Final Verse] Sun came up and I still ain’t slept Guess I really got that deep— been holding in a panic shit and I’m pretty sure I’m about to release it ⸻ [Final Chorus — biggest] VIETNAMESE COFFEE GOT ME OVERCLOCKED HEART GOING STUPID LIKE IT’S BOUT TO POP ONE SMALL CUP NOW I CAN’T FEEL MY FACE I’M SWEATING THROUGH MY SHORTS LIKE I RAN A CHINESE RACE OH SHIT—MY PULSE TOO QUICK LIFE FLASHING FAST LIKE AN ACTION FLICK IF I DIE THEN PUT THIS ON MY GRAVE STONE BRICK: “KILLED IN NAM”
