I'll be back in the mornin' I know that I'm not that important to you.... But to me, girl, you're so much more than gorgeous So much more than perfect Right now I know that I'm not really worth it..... If you give me time, I could work on it Give me some time while I work on it Losin' your patience, and, girl, I don't blame you.... The Earth's in rotation, you're waiting for me.. Look at my face when I fuck on your waist 'Cause we only have one conversation a week That's why your friends always hatin' on me... Fuck 'em though, I did this all by myself, Matter of fact, I ain't ever asked no one for help, And that's why I don't pick up my phone when it rings... None of my exes is over Lil Peep.. Nobody flexin' as much as I be, That's why she text me and tell me she love me... She know that someday I'll be over the sea, Makin' my money and smokin' my weed, I think it's funny, she open up to me, get comfortable with me, Once I got it comin', I love her, she love me... I know that I'm nothing like someone the family want me to be.... If I find a way, would you walk it with me? Look at my face while you talkin' to me.... 'Cause we only have one conversation a week... Can I get one conversation at least? Shout out to everyone makin' my beats, you helpin' me preach... This music's the only thing keepin' the peace when I'm falling to pieces. Look at the sky tonight, all of the stars have a reason A reason to shine, a reason like mine and I'm fallin' to pieces Look at the sky tonight, all of the stars have a reason... • @kathrynhollowoak #starshopping #lifeofart #alligatorskull #brassalligator #thebrassalligator #stlantiques #fineartandantiques #lilpeep #songlyrics #starsinthesky #allofthestarshaveareason #lookattheskytonight #claytonmo #laduemo #darkartwork #⚱️🐊 #waitrighthereillbebackinthemorning #stlmo #stlsmallbusiness #gothboyclique #gothicphotography #frontenacmo #designstl #mybloodyvalentine #happyvalentinesday Who wants to play some bridge?

Now, now, now.... This is my world, this is my arena The TV told me something different I didn't believe it..... I stand here in front of you today all because of an idea.... I could be who I wanted if I could see my potential.... And I know that one day I'ma be him Put the gloves on, sparring with my ego, Everyone's greatest obstacle, I beat him, celebrate that achievement Got some attachments, some baggage I'm actually working on leaving.... See, I observed Escher, I love Basquiat.... I watched Keith Harring, you see I study art.... The greats weren't great because at birth they could paint.... The greats were great 'cause they paint a lot..... I will not be a statistic, just let me be No child left behind, that's the American scheme... I make my living off of words And do what I love for work And got around 980 on my SATs Take that system, what did you expect? Generation of kids choosing love over a desk..... Put those hours in and look at what you get..... Nothing that you can hold, but everything that it is.... . Ten thousand Ten thousand hours felt like ten thousand ants Ten thousand ants, they carry me Ten thousand hours felt like ten thousand ants Ten thousand ants, they carry me . Same shit, different day, same struggle.... Slow motion as time slips through my knuckles.... Nothing beautiful about it, no light at the tunnel For the people that put the passion before them being comfortable.... Raw, unmedicated heart no substitute Banging on table tops, no subs to toot I'm feeling better than ever man, what is up with you? Scraping my knuckles, I'm battling with some drug abuse... I lost another friend, got another call from a sister and I speak for the people that share that struggle too... Like they got something bruised My only rehabilitation was the sweat, tears and blood when up in the booth... • #brassalligator #thebrassalligator #relentlesspursuit #pursuitofpassion #10000hours #10000hrs #stlouisdesigner #stlantiques #thebrassalligatorantiques #macklemoreandryanlewis #lifeofart #bewhoyouwanttobe #basquiat #escher #artstudy #passionoverposition #passionbeforecomfort #⚱️🐊 #pursuitofhappiness #nightowls #constantgrind For the the finest selection of antiques and curiosities in St. Louis, make sure and shop The Brass Alligator. #⚱️🐊 • Pepys’ Memoirs and Diary 1659-1669.

Oftentimes people limit design potential by trying too hard to have an entire room “match” with pieces from the same period. This shot of our client’s space shows how the classic lines of a Chesterfield accompanied by mid century pieces can create an eclectic and interesting space that feels natural and not forced. I must admit, this looks even better in their space than it did at the shop!!! • Thank you again Rebecca! 🖤🙏🏽🖤 🛋SOLD🛋 #stlantiques #stlsmallbusiness #stlsmallbiz #stlouismo #eclecticdecor #eclecticliving #eclecticlivingroom #cigarleather #tuftedsofa #brassalligator #⚱️🐊 #vintagesofa #chesterfieldsofa #laduemo #claytonmo #brentwoodmo #maplewoodmo #frontenacmo #stldesigner #thebrassalligator #stlouisdesigner #principlesofdesign We love it when a celebrity pops in from time to time!
