Time: 0:53
In the Soviet Union, a scientist is blinded
By the resumption of nuclear testing and he is reminded
That Dr Robert Oppenheimer's optimism fell
resumption
beginning again; beginning again

Toking on that lion 'till I'm spotting the dimensions
Fuck a GPS, ride two too high, they get resumption
I been on a mission, just to get us all that necklace
Lilyjets - Perfect Picture

If you just loved me, showed me that you're there
My love in resumption lost the affection
My candle has burned down
