girls at the guggenheim - harry mack lyrics

[intro]
yo
yeah, okay, here we go
yeah, yeah, here we go, listen
unh, yeah, c’mon, listen
yeah, okay

[part 1]
this is a true story i’ma bring you live
i’m in my young twenties, a single guy
i live by myself in my small apartment
smokin’ weed in the mornin’ so i can start bent
but today, yo, i wanna go in proud
i wanna get more cultured to increase my style
’cause lately, i been feedin’ my soul and my spirit
by freestylin’ over beats and cookin’ raw lyrics
but i don’t have enough that i can reference
i gotta go to new places wherе i never been
i gotta find some info, sеnd it through my mind
so i figure i’ll take a stroll to the guggenheim
out there on the streets in new york, now you see ‘im
one foot in front the other towards the museum
i’m standin’ outside, i know the architecture is vital
i’ve heard that it’s built like a spiral
i’ve never seen with my own eyes, though
so i open up the door slowly
okay, here we go, g
i’m walkin’ in and i’m instantly filled with passion
a single man with no attachment
so my soul is wide open and my heart is open too
and i’m lookin’ for some love, that’s what i pursue
love from the art that i see on the walls
when i peep out the pieces, my brain starts to evolve
god d*mn, i’m lookin’ up high
it is indeed shaped like a spiral that elevates to the sky
i wonder why it is, the truth is i don’t know
i wonder if that will be useful later on, though
that’s some foreshadowing, i’m movin’ through the room
yeah, suddenly my whole soul is consumed
yeah, i been here for about fifteen minutes
but i feel like the size o’ the display is infinite
i’m not timid, i’m lookin’ around
sometimes i feel awkward by myself with both feet on the ground
i put my hands in my pockets at times and then i wonder
but then i bring it back to the art so i won’t blunder
and suddenly, out of the corner of my eye
somethin’ beautiful, it starts to arise
at first, i figured that it was a piece of art
but it’s not art that is fluttering my heart
i look to the side so that i can finally see
not just one beautiful woman, but three
and out o’ that trio
there’s one that i know was made for me, bro
should i approach her? let’s see—no!
i prob’ly can’t do that, that doesn’t seem right
i mean, let me try to exercise a bit o’ foresight
now my thoughts are rushin’ so fast, i can hardly even understand what i’m really thinkin’
and i feel like it’s a small opportunity that i might miss even if i blink ‘n
now i’m shrinkin’ down in size, okay, take a deep *inhale* inhale
*exhale* exhale, never been frail
feel my feet up on the ground, now i’m feelin’ grounded
now let me think about how i might go about this
now here’s the thing, she does look scrumptious, bro
but i do not want to make her uncomfortable
i mean, i wanna go up and say, “it’s beautiful you found me!”
but i don’t wanna cross a boundary
how would i feel if i was with my boys
and she came up to me? well, i would make the “wooo!” noise!
i’d be mad excited, but that might not go both ways
so should i risk this here today?
and then i start to consider and i start to figure
why did i come here to see the pretty pictures?
i wanted to come to expand my horizons
and it’s true, the art does have me vibin’
but if i’m not ready to take this leap
then it feels like my adventure in culture is cheap
like, if i’m not prepared to stretch my boundaries myself
and do it for my spiritual health
then maybe there’s no way i can be the dopest lyricist
i gotta understand where my heart and my spirit is
i’m buildin’ myself up, i’m ’bout to get loose
“naw, maybe it’s inappropriate” – “but is that an excuse?”
now both sides o’ my brain are startin’ to argue
they both make good points, i don’t know which part’s true
i mean, am i makin’ an excuse because i’m scared?
or will i really make her feel very underprepared?
i’m not sure, i gotta make the choice
suddenly, i listen to my heart for the voice
it says, “mack, go ahead, make your approach
but you gotta use the right strategy to do the most!”
next beat!
[bridge]
okay
we gotta do this
all right, i can’t just go… naw, i can’t go right to her…
that wouldn’t work. k, what could i do?…
okay. all right

[part 2]
yeah, can’t go right to the one
that’s not the way to get this done
if i tried that, before it even starts, it ends
i’m better off startin’ with a friend
i won’t really go there and flirt
nah, see, that would never work
’cause i don’t wanna make the one i’m focused on jealous
yeah, this is the story i’ma tell, bruh
ayo, i’m gonna walk up to the friend, start the conversation there just to make her aware
that way, she can look at me before i’m lookin’ at her and she’ll become aware
hopefully, she’ll like what she sees
yeah, this is my opportunity
they’re standin’ right in front of a famous piece
now i gotta let my knowledge release
i walk up to the side, say to her friend
“heh, doesn’t it seem like like the art never ends?”
right when i said it, she was makin’ a joke
to her friend that didn’t hear me, my heart got broke
so i tried again “um… ahem…
heh, hey, maybe we can be friends?!
just kidding, but don’t you like this art?”
she was like, “yeah, but are you smart?”
i was like, “whoa, comin’ in harsh
yes, indeed, i am intelligent, not a farce
and let me tell you why, this information’s vital
do you know why it’s shaped like a spiral?”
she says, “no, can you explain?”
“well, the shape is meant to disorient your brain
see, it’s meant to be separate from reality
so that the art is not viewed as a fallacy
but rather like an alternate path we could take
an alternate universe, for goodness’s sake
a different way o’ viewin’ the earth, an alternate dimension
that was the purpose of the building invention
the reason for the architecture on the original blueprints
was not to make you feel stupid
but rather to make you feel separate from your day*to*day
so that you can stay for days
and enjoy the artwork without comparin’ it to normal life
yeah, i outperform ya, right?”
then she looks at me and says, “is that true?”
i look at her and say, “yes, i do
…believe it is,” and her friend looks over
and says, “how do you know so much? who showed ya?”
i was like, “wow, funny you should ask me!”
then i start to spit somethin’ nasty
off o’ the top and i look in ‘er eye
suddenly, i feel them real b*tterflies
flutterin’ all inside o’ my chest
and i looked at her and i know she’s the best
it’s time to invest, time to spit my line
but i gotta do it in the form of a rhyme
i say, “baby girl, let’s get busy
i thought it’d be the spiral that was makin’ me dizzy
but, in fact, it’s you, i’m ’bout to faint!”
feelin’ strong right now, not quaint
she almost fainted, her friend, she caught her
then suddenly she brought her
back to upright and i looked in her eyes
but they looked like the heart*eye emoji, she’s fly
then she falls into me for the hug
and we walked out together, this story’s true love
what!
