lyrics

Intro:
Oh my
I need flowers on my backside
Staring up under a blue sky
Sitting in solemn silence all excited
And feeling too big for my Levi’s
Guess I’m out of element
Definite need some more of that
Anti depressant
I’m running and running like it is my medicine
Everyone is so competitive

Chorus:
Early morning alone I
Take a bit of my own time
Sunlight, quiet, flowers
When I’m out of my zone I
Need to see, with my own eyes
Sunlight, quiet, flowers

Verse 2
Naturally popping
I’m a POC
I’m beautiful with my hair down
Sunlight soaking
That warmth I need
I see it it’s making my skin brown
Don’t get confused and lazy
Mention my name
And you got to pay me
Soft side like I’m like I’m a baby
Running in circles like
Merry go merry go
Need a drink that could probably save me
Made a dream and I wanna go crazy
Nobody’s checking on me lately
All on my own I’m 0/80
Now I’m losing all my motivation now
Insecurities up and my ego down
I been tryna be careful of who’s around
But nobody’s with me it’s foreign ground
If I could have a view
I would chose the one alone in my room
Surrounded by silence, not much to do
Out of my body and into the mood
I need some sunlight
I need some quiet
Maybe some flowers
Dandelion
Pardon my mind
I’m out of it
Finding my way back
Out of this noise it’s loud loud loud loud

Chorus:
Early morning alone I
Take a bit of my own time
Sunlight, quiet, flowers
When I’m out of my zone I
Need to see, with my own eyes
Sunlight, quiet, flowers

Chorus:
Early morning alone I
Take a bit of my own time
Sunlight, quiet, flowers
When I’m out of my zone I
Need to see, with my own eyes
Sunlight, quiet, flowers

Bridge:
I've been chasing all my life
Giving into compromise I
Don't want to play the same game
Where I lose my mind
I'm missing my home, I want to feel whole
Where do I go? Where do I go?
