Lyrics Connected - Justin Sky, Benjamin Earl Turner, Watsky

Connected

It look like I’m by lonely
But Squad right behind me, yea that’s what you don’t see
We stay connected, that’s how it’s gon be
Even when it’s gettin hectic, you know we stay connected
Respect it
Word to the angels, that’s folks
Ride around connected like spokes
High and still connected, tightrope
I am not naive, I high beam
Shine like Yahweh on a off day
Like young Mo' split the high seas
In two like a Gemini Pisces
I need my wings, 40 acres and a garden full of ripe Eves
And a gold throne sittin higher than a pine tree
Posted at the gate with the SQUAD
We ain’t tryna wait for tomorrow
Hand over the plate or your ARM
Put it this way:
I really wanna say I’m
Non violent but a tickin time bomb
Look, middle of the night, blood in the sky, eye, eye
Lookin at life, seen God cry, human in his eye, eye, eye
451 and the 939 tryna say we all connected and when I see time
I could vision out the mission and the crossing lines
Like 1 time finds a way to trigger 3 times in a black man spine
While he’s reachin for his ID and I’d be lyin if i say I didn’t cry
For the young boys and women who I see dyin
At the hands of the devil, beg God for peace sign
But I see signs in a refugee’s eyes
When I look behind and I see the whole fam
Shout out all my niggas and the Fabricants
Fabricating ways to get the dead out the sand
And how we hold a fist with a hole in our hand
And how we hold court when we swung, couldn’t stand
Tribe or die to survive in the land
And that’s how I feel til my last blood spill, Son Mi too real
It look like I’m by lonely
But Squad right behind me, yea that’s what you don’t see
We stay connected, that’s how it’s gon be
Even when it’s gettin hectic, you know we stay connected
Respect it
You know we stay connected
You know we stay connected
Respect it
What I do?
Yea cause I
Connected for a song, it’s not a game though
Gumby niggas always talkin play though
Hit me on the horn, I’m no Masego
But I got the brass to drop the payload
Off the recreation when the bay go
Mutant man, BET is cable
They be writing raps living lies
We be urban legends living fables
We be building-blocks, building blocks
With the box that we livin out of nigga
'fore you try to pimp a butterfly
You better study how to hustle, caterpillar
Me and Sky on that Aquemini
Double headed, double stinging, kill a demon
Multi-winging, fire breathin, high reachin
Giving freedom, hi preacher
It look like I’m by lonely
But Squad right behind me, yea that’s what you don’t see
We stay connected, that’s how it’s gon be
Even when it’s gettin hectic, you know we stay connected
Respect it
You know we stay connected
You know we stay connected
Respect it
Never know result when the coin’s gonna flip
Me and my fears been joined at the hip
Linked ever since I was a boy with a lip
And a lisp and a limp but I’m not gonna slip
Slick undercover got a grip motherfucker
Never quit but I spit on a different level
Dip when I wanna disconnect
Don’t stay at the discotek
Not one sec longer than I feel like staying out cause I’m
A grown up now I do not have the time to waste my time
And it’s not worth my precious minutes if it’s not sublime
It look like I’m by lonely
But Squad right behind me, yea that’s what you don’t see
We stay connected, that’s how it’s gon be
Even when it’s gettin hectic, you know we stay connected
Respect it
You know we stay connected
You know we stay connected
Respect it
