[Chorus]
I think I drank too much
I'm still afraid of growin' up and slowin' down too soon
When the fireworks go off balloons will fall the ball it drops
This is New Years
I wanted to let you know
I thought of you, It's all for you
I changed the way, I thought of you
Revolving you, the sun, the moon
And seasons change, they fall for you

[Verse 1]
The runaround, exhausted you
The snow we watched, defrosts to rain
It's pourin' down, on top of you
The words we want, to take away
So we take back the shit that we say cause it got in the way
All the feelins that stay will escape
But repeatedly come back on days like today
To display this array on my day, on my face it is written
I can't stop and listen
I'm sittin' here wishin' that I could dismiss it
But the money and women don't help with decisions
There's no place like home but I'm focused on livin'
Don't know my limits
The sky is my feelin'
No fucks that I'm givin'
I might need a minute
Dear Lord I've been sinnin'
I'm holdin' my hands and I pray for forgiveness
I might need a minute

[Chorus]
I think I drank too much
I'm still afraid of growin' up and slowin' down too soon
Slowin' down too soon
When the fireworks go off balloons will fall the ball it drops
This is New Years
I wanted to let you know
I thought of you, It's all for you
I changed the way, I thought of you
Revolving you, the sun, the moon
And seasons change, they fall for you

​blackbear

blackbear is the stage name of LA-based producer and singer-songwriter Mat Musto, popularly known for co-writing Justin Bieber’s “Boyfriend,” in 2012. Some of his first collaborations were with the likes of Pharrell Williams, MGK, and Childish Gambino. Later, Musto reinvented himself—he coined the name blackbear from a previous EP titled Year of the Blackbear. Under his new name, he started leaning more towards rapping and an R&B-oriented style.

His first mixtape Sex included collaborations with his peers James Blake, Maejor Ali, and “Boyfriend” co-writer Mike Posner. The Afterglow followed in 2014.

In 2015, blackbear released “idfc,” as the lead single from his debut album Deadroses. It increased his fan following and revenue, earning him millions of playback streams and a spot on Billboard’s Uncharted List of Undiscovered and Upcoming Artists. The second single, “90210,” included a feature from G-Eazy—blackbear made an appearance in his 2014 track, “Remember You.”
