Complacent Virtues Lyrics

[Verse 1: Bon Voyage]
Love, love, why you look so down?
You, only as good as where you're mind stay
Swim in the bed, but them thoughts might drown you
Don't hit the ground, yet prepared to fly away
They took your crown but don't let em take your pride to
Living a lie they suggested don't account for
All of the things that you wanted are around more
Than you expected in a dream, it's now or
Never, ever, close your eyes off the things you love
Don't be a victim of you
Everything come in time, be patient
You at the bar getting live complacent
I get it popping, I ain't judging, just saying
Don't got to lean on your problems, just face them
Or you could pop a pill and erase them
Add a vodka, Sprite, and then chase them
Sniff a line coke with them base heads
Smoke a pound of weed and just lace it
You crazy, already lost my mind, I'm just pacing
Back and forth in time while we got some
They say the end is near so let's count them
Them days, days

[Hook: Beck Motley]
Obviously, Yeah
You really going to play this game, I'm out of your world
I could see, that
Your insecurities have got you out of control
All about yourself, I don't know
How to feed your lies, yeah
Caught up in your world, baby
You don't know compromise
The more you leave, the more I learn
I'm right, damn, complacent virtues
(Complacent virtues x16)

[Verse 1: Beck Motley]
Well, hello there
I thought about u just the other day
The same game other girl, I guess a different name
The clock ticking, so the plot thickens
So I cruise to your mood thinking you would be Penelope
Always want to be on top, make the love stop
Picture perfect painting, photoshopped
With your heart cropped out
With old in, with the new start
The way the fountain of youth flows to the last drop
Oh, that's not your type living
Relationship grow old if we don't make decisions
I mean that's a boat load, if we consider swimming
Swim good to the ocean or the valley of the sun I guess
Instead, you flail around with water wings
Fall like what autumn brings
Drowning in the love that used to flow beneath the vitamins
Might've been, me and you together less
The merrier, we ready to let go, complacent virtues

(Complacent virtues x16)

[Hook]
