Dm  Am  C  C 

Dm             Am 
I'm off of the Earth 
      C 
On a ride, alone 

verse 1 
Dm 
Lift off like Virgin Galactic 
Am 
My Richard's too Branson to fuck with you bastards 
C 
Very legendary, that's some matter-of-fact shit 
C 
You're the opposite of stars like "rats" spelled backwards 
Dm 
I flow poems out to Saturn and passed it 
Am 
Easy as a standard anti-gravity backflip 
C 
Satellite tracking can't map out my tactics 
C 
I spit the same shit they split an atom in half with 
Dm 
No, it's not what I want but it had to be 
Am 
I spent six months just recharging my battery 
C 
Imagine me quitting, what a travesty that would be 
C 
You space shuttle Challengers are nothing but tragedies 
Dm 
So take care on the path that you're headed 
Am 
I'm the father to your style, don't you ever forget it 
C 
I don't drop mikes, only let it smoke where I set it 
C 
And I don't play, even when they press it, get it? 

Dm              Am 
I'm off of the Earth 
      C 
On a ride, alone 
Dm           Am 
I'm drifting away 
        C 
Out of time, afloat 
Dm             Am 
Away from the truth 
               C 
Away from the night, away from the day 
Dm              Am 
I'm off of the Earth 
      C 
On a ride, alone 

verse 2 
Dm 
Please brace for impact 
Am 
Must've went to space and got sent back 
                C 
But I'm still intact, in fact, take a picture of me 
         C 
You can see that I'm a star with your lens cracked, Supernova 
Dm 
In Caesar's Palace, stuntin' on my opponents 
           Am 
'Cause history'll show we done been to war like Romans 
C 
Did that dance with the devil, Hell hot as a kettle 
C 
So it's no wonder why I put this ice on all of my metal 
               Dm 
And wear that shit like a medal, used to think I was a joker 
    Am 
No Jared Leto when I said I'd get us out the ghetto 
C 
Slam my foot on the pedal 
C 
Book a studio when I couldn't afford Instrumentals, Fuck it, record acapella 
        Dm 
Flyin' coach, dreaming Coachella until they banned me 
              Am 
Now they like Bambi's mother - dead - 
Am 
I'm on to these Grammys 
             C 
I'm rollin' these grams gladly, purple and green like Daphne 
C 
Shades on like Velma, hair long like Shaggy 
         Dm 
Crushin' addys in my water, got my voice raspy 
         Am 
Haven't slept since California and that shit was last week 
C 
Paranoid when I sleep, but when I'm high, I'm happy 
C 
That's why I need to kiss the sky when I get stuck in the valley 
     Dm 
Lift off 

Dm              Am 
I'm off of the Earth 
      C 
On a ride, alone 
Dm           Am 
I'm drifting away 
        C 
Out of time, afloat 
Dm             Am 
Away from the truth 
               C 
Away from the night, away from the day 
Dm              Am 
I'm off of the Earth 
      C 
On a ride, alone 

Ending
