Vince Staples
Taxi (Album/Finished Version)
She was more beautiful than anything I’ve ever seen
Was the dream I had longed for, for many years
How it broke my heart to see her shed a tear
But she deserved it
I wasn’t perfect, na I never been
So tell me why the hell was you expecting that?
Bitchin' and complaining seems to me like you perfected that
If I would’ve knew I would have never got so damn attached
Found out that she loves me not
Now I’m in this Cadillac
Please don’t panic pretty lady
I won’t do no stupid shit
Just wanna be the one you love
The one you hug
The one you kiss
It’s funny cuz; ever since you left I even miss the shit you used to do to piss me off
They say an un-tampered love is lost
So I’m not downing you
Really though, I’m happy that you found a dude
But anyway
Is the rope a little tight?
It seems as if your wrist are bleeding
And I hope the tape around your lips doesn’t constrict your breathing
Not much room, but the trunks filled actually
That’s why I got you in the back seat, love taxi
That’s why I got you in the back seat

[Hook]
No
Don’t you know I love you so
So tell me why you wanna go
Don’t leave me
Alone

Sitting here, loathing in this ambiance
Staring at the shrine of miscellaneous body parts
I think of how we got off to such a sloppy start
And what seems worst a slit throat, or a tarnished heart?
I guess I got the raw end of the deal
Because this pain will last forever, yours ended in shrills
Now my life’s a nightmare, but it seems so real
Our love was full force yet you chose to yield
So we crashed, face first blood on the dash
I guess the best lesson in life is nothing that last
Fast-forward to this fucked up position I’m in
Contemplating why to live, when I’m living in sin
But shit, n***as like me, wasn’t meant to go to heaven
We was meant to be alone, die, hanging from the ceiling
Tried praying for forgiveness but God told me to shut up
