Note to Self

And wherever we go

And whatever we do

And whatever we see

And whoever we be

It don't matter

It don't matter

I don't mind cause you don't matter

I don't mind cause I don't matter

(And don't shit matter)

I've got a feeling that there's somethin' more

Something that holds us together

Something that holds us together

The strangest feeling but I can't be sure

Something that's old is forever

Something that's old is forever

Love

And wherever we go

And whatever we do

And whatever we see

And whoever we be

It don't matter

It don't matter

I don't mind cause you don't matter

I don't mind cause I don't matter

(And don't shit matter)

You'll see in the end
