I do like it... It's quiet safe in lyrics but I do appreciate the instrumentals here, they do have some taste... Somber piano and guitar on sparks...

"@itscarcrasher that could be the case considering how big his reputation was... but that doesn't changes the fact that i saw a clip and even googled where he makes an appearance on a stage and people were fainting from the shock and he just stood in his stance on stage... that's no different from the travis scott tragedy for me and the fact that he just stood there with his stance makes me dislike him as a person very much... he's 10 times worse than travis for me"
