LYRICS
I can’t be waiting for you now
Ain’t buying father time, it’s out
Wake up, waste time another day
Ask why, we’ll never understand
Okay if I could conversate with you tonight about a thing?
I don’t know what the fuck to say
I don’t know
I don’t know
Waiting for the day to go back
Antsy for a way to go
Taking all my change, it’s all bad
Sad to say you never know
Take out, take out your rocket now
Fake all, fake all your passion now
Wipe down windows, sit passenger
Take rocks make up for solid ground
Sit down, don’t work it out the morning's comin’
And you so down and out about her stories
Head in the clouds
See clearly rain is pouring
Hop out that bed wait for her to make it for you
Standing on my own toes walking by
I could see the sun, I could see the sun
Waiting for you by your daughters side
I don’t know ya
I don’t know ya
I got to be watching for ya
I got to be watching for ya
I got to be watching for ya
I got to be watching for ya
(x2)
I got to be watching for you
On days that I won’t ignore you
On days that I don’t annoy you
On days that I ain’t there for you
I got to be watching for you
On days that I won’t ignore you
On days that I don’t annoy you
On days I ain’t lookin forward to
Take out, take out your rocket now
Fake all, fake all your passion now
Wipe down windows, sit passenger
Take rocks make up for solid ground

papa mbye (pronounced ehm-bay) is a 22 year old Gambian artist based in Minneapolis making his own brand of post-everything music spanning across Pop, Alt-Rap, Lofi, R&B, Emo, and Punk. New single "PASSENGER" was developed from a conversation with his producer on figuratively switching seats in life from Driver to Passenger and back again. It's about relationships with people as some sort of vehicle and how we find ourselves maneuvering from one to another. Sometimes you go too far along with a person and have to hop out and find your way back. "PASSENGER" perfectly captures papa's ability to channel his ideas and deliver a cathartic anthem for his generation of art kids and creators.
