VOICES Lyrics
Yeah, ayy, ayy, ayy
[Chorus: Skye]
At night I lie awake trying to fight the voices in my head (Voices in my head)
Visions of you racing, racing, playing, it's all inside my head (It’s all inside my head)
Fucked up too many times, some things are better left unsaid
At night I lie awake trying to fight the voices in my head
[Verse 1: Skye]
Girl, why you tryna save me? You should just save yourself
If I said that we could make it, I'd be lying to myself
Wishing I could hit reset, bad decisions I regret
Now you're talking to your ex, yeah, I'm sad, I know, like X, baby
[Verse 2: XXXTENTACION]
Ayy, slappin' on the pussy like a battle axe, uh
Got bigger ass than a Cadillac, uh
Niggas blind to drip, they got cataracts
Fucked my baby momma on a muh'fuckin' yoga mat, uh
Hunnid phone, hunnid phone, backtrack
Laughing at these niggas like I'm muh'fuckin' Flapjack, uh
I don't fuckin' gamble, fuck blackjack
School of rockin' niggas like I'm motherfuckin' Jack Black, uh (Yeah, yeah)
[Chorus: Skye]
At night I lie awake trying to fight the voices in my head (Voices in my head)
Visions of you racing, racing, playing, it's all inside my head (It’s all inside my head)
Fucked up too many times, some things are better left unsaid
At night I lie awake trying to fight the voices in my head
This will be my best side
Now I feel like suicide
Baby, are you switching sides?
Why you out here telling lies?
It could have been you and I
Thought you were my ride or die
[Chorus: Skye]
At night I lie awake trying to fight the voices in my head (Voices in my head)
Visions of you racing, racing, playing, it's all inside my head (It’s all inside my head)
Fucked up too many times, some things are better left unsaid
At night I lie awake trying to fight the voices in my head
[Outro: Skye]
Voices in my head
Voices in my head
Voices in my head
Voices in my head
Voices in my head
Voices in my head
Voices in my head
About
“VOICES” is the first collaboration between Skye & XXXTENTACION. Snippets of the song appeared months before release, and the song was leaked a couple hours before its release on October 31st, 2019. X’s verse from the song comes from his “Yes Indeed” Freestyle. Another verse from that freestyle was also used in Kanye West’s “The Storm”. Skye’s chorus takes heavy influence from blink-182’s “I Miss You.”

I made sure to channel that energy while writing and recording this record. It was actually a coincidence that we decided to flip a blink-182 song called “I Miss You” not knowing Jah’s fate at the time. This song serves as the perfect tribute to my bro who I miss dearly, and is in my thoughts every time I hear the track.
