North Pole Lyrics

[Verse 1: Stepa J. Groggs]
Not one to take the high road, so why start now?
Feels like I lost my way and I'm not tryna be found
And I'm not the type to go and use a GPS

Let the liquor take the kid away like CPS
I love that Jay line talking 'bout CBS
I been doing the same since so I can see BS
Man, this ain't a swan song, you can go and save your tissues
Not too many were there when I was dealing with my issues
Fuckin' up, regretting all the time that I misused
Songs start going up and I get hit with "Oh, I missed you"s
Same number since '04, so you can miss me with the excuse
Yeah, I'm not too hard to find, you know where I be
Prolly posted up with my niggas and my family
Feeling pressure in the pocket and I started scramblin'
A couple yards is better than a loss, right?
I can't be the only one that's feeling lost, right?

[Chorus: Austin Feinstein]
Plastic confidence, I know you see-through
Nothing feels faster than a reboot
Nothing feels only like a half-truth
Spiral twist, over it
Plastic confidence, I know you see-through
Nothing fails faster than a reboot
Nothing feels only like a half-truth
Spiral twist, over it
[Verse 2: Ritchie with a T]
"Hey, how you doing?
I know it's been a minute since we talked, but man, how you been?
Seen your dad at the barber shop and, shit, it felt like you, kid
Never realized how much he looked like you, shit
Man, I swear that you could free like six-hundred bars without losing it
Man, I'll never love this rap shit, not as much as you did

That was round when Kendrick had dropped OD
Man, I wish them pills ain't make you fuckin'—hold up
Was going through my phone and I still got you in my contacts
I wish that I could call and you could call back

Maybe pass my pops the phone, yeah, so I can hear him
Everyone says I sound just like him, but shit, man, I don't hear it
Ask him if he heard the outro, even though I know he know it
He was prolly watching over me in that car when I had wrote it

My mom was there watching me in the crowd when I performed it
And you were watching over me when I wrote this, yeah"

[Chorus: Austin Feinstein]
Plastic confidence, I know you see-through
Nothing feels faster than a reboot
Nothing feels only like a half-truth
Spiral twist, over it
Plastic confidence, I know you see-through
Nothing fails faster than a reboot
Nothing feels only like a half-truth
Spiral twist, over it
[Outro: Parker Corey]
It's been so long, since you been home
Since I been home, at the north pole
I hit your phone, nights get so cold
Wind through my bones, at the north pole
I just need you, something to hold
Someone to know, at the north pole
I am just me, something to hold
Gets so alone, at the north pole

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
