Time Machine Lyrics

[Intro]
Ayy

[Chorus]
Don't know what to do with these memories
I need that Rollie that can turn back time
Yeah, the ones with the big white stones
With the ones that I love, need that shit right now
I know it's in the past, I don't give a fuck
It's called the present, but don't think it's what I want
I just wanna feel like I did, just a couple suns back
Feelin' like I'm a kid again

[Verse 1]
Woke up with some feelings of nostalgia
But, this not the kind that makes you smile
It felt more like a thousand paper cuts
And a Band-Aid ain't gon' fuckin' heal it up (Uh)
Honeymoons and strangers (That shit was fun)
Sundays with family (That shit was nice)
I'm missin' out on things I can't rewind
I just wish I knew I'd miss it at the time

[Pre-Chorus]
Give me that serotonin, baby
My brain been needin' that serotonin lately
I'ma need the key to open up the fuckin' past
'Cause all my friends are locked inside and I can't get 'em back
I just wanna relive the past, just for a second
Can you invent a fuckin' time machine
I'm tryna go to 2014 (Uh)
[Chorus]
Don't know what to do with these memories
I need that Rollie that can turn back time
Yeah, the ones with the big white stones
With the ones that I love, need that shit right now
I know it's in the past, I don't give a fuck
It's called the present, but don't think it's what I want
I just wanna feel like I did, just a couple suns back
Feelin' like I'm a kid again (Ayy, uh)

[Verse 2]
I'ma wash all the dishes when I wake up
Why you say you ain't got time? This shit is made up
Twelve in the mornin', two in the mornin'
I live in the moment, you live when it's borin'
All because you couldn't think 'bout no one but yourself
'Cause you think that everyone so worried 'bout your health
If you worry 'bout the past, I'm writin' you a song
All you need is your girl, then you gon' never be alone

[Pre-Chorus]
Give me that serotonin, baby
My brain been needin' that serotonin lately
I'ma need the key to open up the fuckin' past
'Cause all my friends are locked inside and I can't get 'em back
I just wanna relive the past, just for a second
Can you invent a fuckin' time machine
I'm tryna go to 2014 (Uh)
[Chorus]
Don't know what to do with these memories
I need that Rollie that can turn back time
Yeah, the ones with the big white stones
With the ones that I love, need that shit right now
I know it's in the past, I don't give a fuck
It's called the present, but don't think it's what I want
I just wanna feel like I did, just a couple suns back
Feelin' like I'm a kid again
