Guitar In My Room
Guitar In My Room Lyrics
I'm in a room with my guitar, I'm tryna prove that I'm a star
But I hate when we keep distance 'cause it's a difference with response
Keep it natural the first day, we gon' watch Tubi in the car
Ask me what's my motivation, I say, "The trenches," she say, "Why?"
[Refrain: Lil Durk]
I was takin' non-prescriptions, them drugs
I wanna ask for your permission, don't judge
Before you ever get a job, get a gun
Gotta hit a thousand girls before you fall in love
[Verse 2: Lil Durk]
Gotta say you older just to get inside the club
Inside the house starvin', went to school to get lunch
Had to dress for funerals before I ever dressed for prom
Had to dress for funerals before I ever dressed for prom
[Chorus: Lil Durk]
Accept me, please
Accept me for me
Don't judge me off my past life, nah
I want you to believe
[Verse 3: Lil Durk]
All type of girls be on my line, but I ain't chasin' them though
We always around our friends, let's take vacations alone
Your last boyfriend wasn't fun, he had you stayin' at home
And I know that you was mad 'cause you was stayin' alone
For example, his friends came over, he made you stay in the room
For example, just think you with me whenever you stare at the moon
See your life is a scary movie, I can hold you in my arms
Can't cover your face with the makeup, I know who you are
Don't get your titties and ass done, I like who you are
It make you so insecure about whoever you are
I was takin' non-prescriptions, them drugs
I wanna ask for your permission, don't judge
Before you ever get a job, get a gun
Gotta hit a thousand girls before you fall in love
[Chorus: Lil Durk]
Accept me, please
Accept me for me
Don't judge me off my past life, nah
I want you to believe
[Post-Chorus: Lil Durk]
I'm just tryna tell you who we are (Are)
I'm just tryna tell you who we are (Are)
I'm just tryna tell you who we are (Are)
I'm just tryna tell you who we are
[Verse 4: Kid Cudi]
Hmm, who we are
Tellin' all your girlfriends that I'm your star
Caught you in a dream, I hit you with that sauce
If we aim at the moon, no, babe, won't fall
She said she miss that feeling
A real nigga that is so appealin'
Keep it low, baby, I'm not leavin'
Soakin' up your glow, we take it slow
If there's problems, I'll solve 'em, no lie
You never had a nigga catchin' all the signs
It's time, babe, lost in the lights
Everywhere I'm at with you I'm fine (You)
It's hazy, baby (Baby) give me the honey, honey (Huh, huh)
She fuckin' with the alien, she know it, know it (Yeah)
Now watch me handle it, she threw it back, I'm diggin' in that
I give you A1, want some more? Now girl, that's a bet
Oh-oh-oh-oh
She said she never wanna come down (Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
She want that magic (Yeah-yeah), kinda like a drug
She want that magic (Yeah-yeah), gotta get that love, love
Hmm
Mmm
Hmm
Mmm

No. “Guitar In My Room” marks the first collaboration track between the two.
It’s the highest honor when two worlds are unfamiliar with each other and the audience didn’t know they can come together and make something beautiful. One of those artist being Durk, is a close collaborator of mine and a really good friend with mine. I don’t know what it is, but he trusts me with anything and I’m very thankful for that and it goes both ways. The other artist is Cudi. […] That one was just so exciting for me because Cudi is one of my all time favorites and people can say whatever in the world they want to say about him, and it just simply couldn’t change my mind on how I feel about him. When I sent him the song, I didn’t hear back from him. I texted him and I didn’t hear back from him. I’d just assume he wasn’t into it. He calls me a month later and was like “Yo, I love this song. I just got around to check it out. Is it too late to hop on it?” I was like absolutely not. Please do. It’s funny because then I bring it back to Durk and I’m like “Hey, I know you’re probably not hip to Cudi but he’s an absolute legend,” and Durk knows that, he probably doesn’t know a ton of Kid Cudi records himself. So, he was like “Cool, I trust in your vision, let’s go!” Then Cudi calls me the next day and he was like “Yo, I don’t know too much about Durk. Can you tell me a little bit more about his music and his range on how he sings?” It was so funny and then putting them on a group chat and seeing them converse. There’s a really special thing to say about trust and I’m just very honored to have some of these people’s trust. That’s the best way I could put it.
