lyrics

I am a ghoul inside of a tomb
But shine like a ruby; not hiding my jewels
I don’t make waves. It’s like a monsoon
Pardon my attitude. I got a heart full of gratitude
But, I can’t help but to flex on niggas, so
How mad are you? How mad are you? How mad are you?
They don’t take me loosely with the loose-leaf
I’m in shape, but slightly obtuse and still alive through the bruises

Far away, far away
I imagine what they’ll say
How could you ghost me?
I’m done with the phonies
I’d rather get lost
No matter the cost
I bought a one-way ticket to Paradise
Swimming in neon-lights. I’m gone

I think I’ll go to Tokyo
I think I’ll go to Tokyo
I think I’ll go to Tokyo

I might take a trip to Japan out the blue to catch me a vibe
Kimono Draggin’ behind me when I’m out. Some call me Senpai.
U.S.A ain’t doing great. No wonder we just said bye
Flying through is much better than making sure that you can get by
Two Testarossas; black and red. I want them both like I went Bi
Get a massive ring for my middle-finger to say “fuck you” when it shines
I want the finer things. All of my life I dreamed to be iconic
I looked in every pane of glass, then I realized it’s me

Konnichiwa, Konnichiwa, I’m back
I’m never sleepy, though; more insomniac
I’m on my Ichigo Kurisaki, ya
Heartbeat is gold, but even so: I got a hollow half
Yeah

Yeah, I’m on my way to Tokyo
I’m on my way to Tokyo
I’m on my way to Tokyo
Don’t miss me when I go, I go
Cause I don’t know you no more
I’m on my way to Tokyo. Ooo
I’m on my way to Tokyo. Ooo

I’d rather get lost
No matter the cost
I bought a one-way ticket to Paradise
Swimming in neon-lights. I’m gone

I need a vacation. Light-speed’s how I’m racin
I’ve seen a few places, but this might be where I’m stayin
Nothing is new. I want to refresh. I did not tell my family yet
Pushing that button to reset. Done with the fuckery we let
happen too often. It be getting me mad how we’ve fallen
If we’re the “Land of the Free”, then why are we trapped in these bars then?
Cause things are getting old
Need to heal my soul. Need to feel the glow
It’s been dark a lot. Why am I in this zone?
Oh no, I can’t be here for long
This rollercoaster-ride that I am here upon
Is ‘bout to take me to that place. Hope it don’t steer me wrong

Konnichiwa, Konnichiwa, I’m back
I’m never sleepy, though; more insomniac
I’m on my Ichigo Kurisaki, ya
Heartbeat is gold, but even so: I got a hollow half
Yeah

Yeah, I’m on my way to Tokyo
I’m on my way to Tokyo
I’m on my way to Tokyo
Don’t miss me when I go, I go
Cause I don’t know you no more
I’m on my way to Tokyo. Ooo
I’m on my way to Tokyo. Ooo

I’d rather get lost
No matter the cost
I bought a one-way ticket to Paradise
Swimming in neon-lights. I’m gone

I’m on my way to Tokyo
I’m on my way to Tokyo
