Matthew in the Middle (feat. Daniel Caesar)

It's a long, long

Long, long

Journey to the middle

Welcome to the middle

It's a long, long

Long, long

Journey to the middle

Welcome to the middle, yeah

Amen, hallelujah

Amen, hallelujah

Is this heaven or suburbia?

Is this heaven or suburbia?

Amen, hallelujah

Amen, hallelujah

Is this heaven or suburbia?

Is this heaven or suburbia?

I don't idolize ****

There ain't a man alive I idolize, ****

My only fear is all this idle time, ****

For the paper, I might finalize, ****

Ain't for flexin', I can't find the time, ****

Ain't get stressed except from time to time, ****

This obsession with status and new possessions

Patterned from which the lesson is average, is choosing method

And balance is for older, we're addicts and this is true

So what happens, king of the youth?

Is this heaven or suburbia?

Is this heaven or suburbia?

My soul bleeds over the keys of this piano

I'm in trouble

Need more treble

My brother ran base, I rock like heavy metal

My soul bleeds over the keys of this piano

I'm in trouble

Need more treble

My brother ran base, I rock like heavy metal

We ain't talk much since '99

We have problems, ninety-nine

I'm coming home, I know he lying

But that's my brother, so that was fine

He in the pen

I'm independent

I used to pen shit

But never send it

He was like my pen pal

I pawned his pendant

To cop a pistol

No cop protection

He had potential

The times tension those tense times

Crime pays quicker

The grind takes time

So no Tim Tebow

He in the field, no God

Dope boy lifestyle, a car, no job

He had a chain now, he chained

Calling collect with some change

My mother crying and I hate

I know she snitched on my brother

So that's a family divided

Another Christmas, no brother

I jail visit my brother

Tried of missing my brother, yeah

I hope you listening, brother

I love you, don't you think I'm dissing you, brother

Yeah, but we never kicked it at all

We never kicked or even pitched at a ball

I hope I see you on tour brother, yeah

It's a long, long

Long, long

Journey to the middle

Welcome to the middle

It's a long, long

Long, long

Journey to the middle

Welcome to the middle

Amen, hallelujah

Amen, hallelujah

Is this heaven or suburbia?

Is this heaven or suburbia?

Amen, hallelujah

Amen, hallelujah

Is this heaven or suburbia?

Is this heaven or suburbia?
