lyrics

I just wanna take you somewhere special
A place only you know
a place that you feel free
and loved
because
you are loved

Cocoa buttah angel
Cocoa buttah angel
Fly me away

Cocoa buttah angel
Cocoa buttah angel
Fly me away

Wish I had a rack
to hang all my problems
'cause my life ain't been grand
my problems more than a thousand
I seen a mic in my hand
in my visions of solace
colorful like a Coogi
big like Christopher Wallace
bigger than anything else
a depressed state of mind
it keep calmin me down
when I wanna be loud
I'm not sposed to be reggie
I'm supposed to be loud
I don't get high off the mids
I just sit on the couch
with no therapist
a password to netflix
a rejection email
flashback to shit that I did
now I'm stuck in a loop
Do I wanna keep watchin?
Netflix asked me that shit
now a nigga is nodded...
No therapist
a password to netflix
a rejection email
flashback to shit that I did
now I'm stuck in a loop
do I wanna keep watchin...?

I don't wanna keep watching, I need the

Cocoa buttah angel
Cocoa buttah angel
Fly me away

Cocoa buttah angel
Cocoa buttah angel
Fly me away

Cocoa buttah angel
Cocoa buttah angel
Fly me away

Cocoa buttah angel
Cocoa buttah angel
Fly me away
