The Getaway Lyrics

[Intro: Russ]
Yeah

[Chorus: Russ]
Wake up feeling like you need to getaway
Smoking, drinking, hoping for some better days
Stay down, stay down, stay down (Yeah)
Wake up feeling like you need to getaway
Smoking, drinking, hoping for some better days
Stay down, stay down, stay down

[Verse 1: Russ]
Open up your mind when I speak
Drink up, stop asking me for weed
It's gone be a long ride if you're tryna go that way (That way)
You robbing me of my no sympathy
My card's the bat cape so let me entertain you with my riddles
You're a dime but you associate with niggles
Selling quarters, you're pinching for a fucking penny
I'm feeling fickle
About even fucking with you a little (Damn)

[Bridge]
But we're still just cruising
I might be winning but you're still losing (Damn)
The fuck I'm gon' do?
The fuck you gon' do?
But we're still just cruising
I might be winning but you're still losing (Damn)
The fuck I'm gon' do?
The fuck you gon' do?
[Chorus: Russ]
Wake up feeling like you need to getaway
Smoking, drinking, hoping for some better days
Stay down, stay down, stay down (Yeah)
Wake up feeling like you need to getaway
Smoking, drinking, hoping for some better days
Stay down, stay down, stay down (Yeah)

[Verse 2: John Anthony]
Yeah, yeah
Hey y'all ain't from me in a year and I'm sorry (Sorry)
I ain't had a bet in a year
And that's probably another reason why depression keep on killing me softly, yeah
'Talkin to this taxer, he's telling me that I'm godly, yeah
Say he's mistaken, he's inches away from breaking the calm
Inches away from breaking past that moment of silence
[?] chrome and an iron, highest prison population
Instagramming with Davis, shoot a porno on Vevo
Ain't no different than banging
Making quarters with Cee-Lo's
We on the 3 like Kevin Durant
An ounce of this devilish plant
And enough Whitney to call Nino minor
Girls Love Beyonce, fuck it, Girls Love Beyonce
I'm in love, it's feels like diamonds and bitter coffee
Smoking on yesterday's diamonds while thinking I'm godly
While she mumbles how I wasn't a God who tumbled Goliath
I just
[Chorus: Russ]
Yeah
Wake up feeling like you need to getaway
Smoking, drinking, hoping for some better days
Stay down, stay down, stay down (Yeah)
Wake up feeling like you need to getaway
Smoking, drinking, hoping for some better days
Stay down, stay down, stay down (Yeah)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • 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 [?]
