THE GRIOTRECORD 10 / 16
TRACK 10 · THE RECORD
SPLIFFLASH
We keep it pretty… even when it’s weird.
THE CONTACT SHEET / NEGATIVE 10
Smile like crime—confuse the truth.
IF IT’S TOO REAL—MAKE IT LAUGH!
THE ILLUSTRATED STORY / 10
Three exposures. One inconvenient truth.
KINDA SORTA
My grin too bright, got the night feel soft.
MOONLIT TOAST
Freeze that frame—don’t ruin it.
MASQUERADE MAESTRO
Smile like crime—confuse the truth.
THE RECORD / WORDS
Lyrics.
The words are here when you want them.
READ THE LYRICS
Heh, heh
Hold still
Splifflash blink, now the moment froze
Smoke in the light like designer ghosts
My grin too bright, got the night feel soft
I make bad luck dance with a good-ass walk
She said"you real?" I said"kinda, sorta"
I'm like love in a cup with a lil' extra water
My words come sideways, my rhythm come odd
But somehow your hips still obeyin' the bop
Grin on my cheek, it drip like paint
I'm a saint in a club, I'm a flirt in a bank
I don't move perfect, I move like"oops"
Trip on the beat then land in loops
Freeze that frame, don't ruin it
Kiss too quick, don't do too much
Smile like crime, confuse the truth
I'm sugar slick with the street in the clutch
Click, click!
Click!
Flash, flash!
Flash!
Love on camera, don't move fast!
Click, click!
Click!
Flash, flash!
Flash!
If it's too real, make it laugh!
Splifflash polaroids, we glow then we pass
Splifflash polaroids, we glow then we
Hold up!
Hold up!
Pose up!
Pose up!
Roll up!
Roll up!
Glow up!
Glow up!
She wanna read me like captions
I'm more like static with manners
I'm sweet with a side of"don't try me"
I'm calm but my silence got hammers
Ex text pop up, I don't even click it
I swipe left like"blessings, no sickness"
I'm not heartless, I'm just hard to pin
Like a laugh in the dark when the bass come in
My life been loud with the quiet parts
So I crack jokes like glow-in-the-dark
If I ever looked lost in the crowd
It's 'cause I was holdin' my whole self down
I'm the Fool, so you don't run
I'm the Magician, so you feel young
I'm the Hermit, when the lights turn thin
And the night start talkin' from deep within
But tonight?
We keep it pretty
Even when it's weird
Camera shake, bass get mean
Butterfly drums on a gasoline beat
Birds in the synth and the bees in the snare
Whole park turned club, now the club in the air
Run that back!
Run!
Spin that again!
Spin!
Hands in the sky!
Sky!
Lose your brain!
Lose!
Click, click!
Click!
Flash, flash!
Flash!
Love on camera, don't move fast!
Click, click!
Click!
Flash, flash!
Flash!
If it's too real, make it laugh!
Pose!
Pose!
Glow!
Glow!
Roll!
Roll!
Go!
Go!
You ever smile so hard
Your face start hurtin?
