Here is the first offering from Avriel Epps’ forthcoming project.

You can read the lyrics below.

VERSE 1
I don’t know how I got back
On the block again
64th and Western
Out my element
On a different planet
Gravity remains
He pulls me in
And I

Ask him how he’s living
Granny’s doing good [yeah she’s doing good]
Graduating early
Still misunderstood
Trappin, working
We start kissing
I stop listening
He pulls me in
And I…

PRE CHORUS
Just a fantasy
Chiseled
And so cold, so cold
Looking for a body
Not a soul
Oh, oh

CHORUS
I’m falling for caricatures
Just an idea, just an idea
An idea of you
Falling for caricatures
Just an idea, just an idea
An idea of you

VERSE 2
Emptied out a blunt in an
Empty living room
Higher Learning’s on, but
The TV’s stuck on mute
I think I’m only seeing what I want
It ain’t a man, ain’t a man, ain’t a man

Just a collection of assumptions and
Things I’m tryna prove
Stories heard in songs
And seen on evening news
You can’t ever know another
Thinking you know all about them
He caught me slipping, yeah…

PRE CHORUS
Just a fantasy
Chiseled and so cold, so cold
Looking for a body
Not a soul

CHORUS
Falling for caricatures
Just an idea, just an idea
An idea of you
Falling for caricatures
Just an idea, just an idea
An idea of you

OUTRO
Just an idea (x15)
