Mac Miller — The Bargain

[Intro] Yeah, said I [Verse 1] Made a promise with my deranged conscious In return he told me the voice in my head would quiet down All I gotta do is never speak of his existence or eternal soul Otherwise it's terminal And I hate to worry those With my dirty nose and my perverted ways It hurts me that I hurt you Never meant to cause a person pain Deteriorate a skeleton, regurgitate my vertebrae Lord, I beg your mercy Can you take me on a perfect day? I always wondered what determines fate And who's tendin' to the garden by the pearly gates They don't want you to be anything but what they tell you Sell you on a lie and watch the murder rate circulate Lord merciful He ride around heaven in his '69 convertible No shirt beneath the purple coat Known to get surgical at the turkey bowl He throw a baseball like a motherfuckin' girl though [Chorus] What is this underworld you speak of And why is everybody tryna teach us? Why is it considered so rude to walk around in the nude And why do we hurt the ones that we love? Yeah, I always wondered if Jesus had a ego Insecurities when he got emo Why do I insist on goin' over your head? Why don't I just make hits? Gotta be so weird [Verse 2] Yeah, yeah I've been awake for so long, I feel myself disintegratin' But I'll never stop the innovation I'm addicted to creation, that's the world's greatest miracle My vehicle, no one told me how to steer it though I'm toyin' with my hallucinations Hope it don't spoil and turn into inferno I'm lost in the wormhole, searchin' for the hurt souls Watchin' as the germs grow Take over the Earth slow I'm unaware in a comfy chair sippin' Merlot Waitin' 'til I hear my number called and it's my turn to go Insomnia, oh, how I always get along witcha They don't want us to be friends, but I'm so fond of ya And I can stay in Narnia forever The human brain couldn't measure how the pleasure feel I disagree with what they said was real And, if this a war I need a better shield Yeah [Outro] This ain't nothin' but another idea to be forgotten at the bottom of a drawer in my apartment, lost I tried to bargain with the man upstairs I just hope I got a fan up there
