Counterproductive

[Verse 1]
Wrote a check, you swiped a card
But didn’t make it far
No more gas left in your rental car
account way past withdrawn [BREAK]
Chasing after fairy tales and model broads
You’ll get in if you act the part
Play it well enough won’t play for long
Ain’t think about when all your money gone

[Pre Chorus]
You kept saying “how is this living?”
“Can’t save can’t spend shit”
“Stuck at the bottom the gap’s just too big,” yeah
“How can I be content?” [BREAK]
“Fuck a 401k” 
“I got bills due today,” yeah 
“And tomorrow’s not promised”
“So if I’m being honest”
“I’d rather blow it all away.”
 All away

[Chorus]
You kept yelling “this is meaningless”
How to respond to…
Like how can I mock you
When I don’t disagree? [BREAK]
Let’s just not put meaning behind everything
As counterproductive as it seems
Oh I agree
But we can’t put meaning into everything
As counterproductive as that seems.

R&B soul song, mid tempo, funk inspired, bass guitar slaps, soft piano, synth heavy, trippy vibe, melodic female vocals
