Caught in a Daze
[Verse 1: David Dallas]
Yeah, yeah
I'm high upon a new wave of confidence
I'm tryna ride it to a few different continents
Known in the country that I'm from but anonymous
To most of the populace in dominant marketplaces
I'm from New Zealand, they're not used to seein' different faces
And they don't ever turn the radio to different stations
I gotta do it, though, 'cause Mum's gettin' sick of waitin'
When I was young, she used to tell me, "Have some fuckin' patience"
But she love the baby boy, raise the bar like I'm on roids
On my game like I'm on joysticks, still playin' with these toys
I'm grateful for the voice I've been given
Big boy now, no Purple Ribbon, 'bout to have all of the shutterbugs flickin'
Straight sippin' Vodka Soda with a twist in
Jamiroquai playin', I don't say it to be different
It's still hip-hop in the vein, Smirnoff in the brain
Always been a cool dude, I'll let you know if it change
[Chorus: David Dallas, Freddie Gibbs]
I'm kickin' back, feelin' good on a Friday
Ain't lettin' all the bullshit get in my way
Know that I stay caught in a daze (Yeah)
Caught in a daze (Ayy), caught in a daze, caught in a daze
I'm in a good mood, don't mess up my high
Things are lookin' up, you can see in my eyes
So you know I'm caught in a daze (Uh)
Caught in a daze (Fo sho, yeah), caught in a daze (Yeah), caught in a daze
[Verse 2: Freddie Gibbs]
Bitch, I’m caught up in a daze, caught up with these polices again
Bitch, got these swishers and these vehicles we chiefin' up in
That’s why they hate, custom cutlasses, my niece end up on 6s (Yeah)
If you ever tryna find me, I prolly be water whippin'
Cookin' up and cuttin', open up baggies, stuff 'em like muffins
Out of dope but, Joe, your prices ain't in my budget, so fuck it
I stuck 'em up and got on the highway
Freddie Gibbs get fried, like every day is Friday
In the place I reside, I keep that iron 'cause them goons gon' be lurkin'
Keep my dope spot bumpin' and my 'poose phone twerkin'
Put me on a lick and anybody move, I'ma' murk 'em
Knock 'em out they shoes and give they ass the blues, that's for certain
Bitch, you purpin' then you flirtin' with death, if you fuck with mine
Really ain't shit to walk up and take your life in this life of crime
In this life of mine, I took risks and put my life on the line
Agents ask me for a statement, I decline
[Chorus: David Dallas, Freddie Gibbs, David Dallas & Freddie Gibbs]
I'm kickin' (Sittin') back, feelin' good on a Friday
Ain't lettin' all the bullshit get in my way
Know that I stay caught in a daze (Yeah)
Caught in a daze (Ayy), caught in a daze, caught in a daze
I'm in a good mood, don't mess up my high
Things are lookin' up, you can see in my eyes
So you know I'm caught in a daze
Caught in a daze (Yeah), caught in a daze, caught in a daze (Yeah)
[Verse 3: David Dallas]
I'm standin' tall, they could never chop me down
Deeply rooted in the ground, way I spit it so profound
Know this sound like some shit you heard before, but it ain't Everyone's an artist now but I'm usin' different paint, man
I'm using different ink for the story, this is guts, this is glory
It's the rush of performin', it's a slut when you're horny
It's the feelin' that you get when you wake up in the mornin'
Or that feelin' that you get when the sun's dawnin' on an-
Other day and you ain't seen your life another way
Than workin' that same job for next to nothin' pay
Pluggin' away at your dreams, tryna hold the shit together
While the world's tuggin' away at the seams, see
Strugglin', it ain't no thing once you're lookin' back
But fucked if you'd ever again try to go through that
So I just see it like a vintage car
You put your all in to ride it out once, then it's in the garage
You talk about it with your friends as a symbol
Of the hard work, this is all a means to an end
Lookin' at it through a lens that's rose-tinted
It's probably why you hear it in my voice, I'm so committed
[Chorus: David Dallas, Freddie Gibbs]
I'm kickin' back, feelin' good on a Friday
Ain't lettin' all the bullshit get in my way
Know that I stay caught in a daze (Yeah)
Caught in a daze (Ayy), caught in a daze, caught in a daze
I'm in a good mood, don't mess up my high
Things are lookin' up, you can see in my eyes
So you know I'm caught in a daze
Caught in a daze (Yeah), caught in a daze, caught in a daze
[Outro: David Dallas]
Uh-uh
Hahaha
