Chance the Rapper affinity for childhood takes many forms, whether it be his trademark overalls, his appreciation of the television show "Arthur," or the title of his new mixtape Coloring Book. On "Smoke Break," one of the mixtape's standout tracks,Chance raps about the burdens of adulthood and his desire to return to the simpler days -- to take pause, slow things down with a smoke break.
The song features a top-notch verse from Future. His performance here makes one wonder if he should rap on these sorts of gospel-inflected, uplifting beats more often.
Quotable Lyrics
Truth being told, we used to movies and bowl
We used to Netflix and roll
I used to pass her the smoke
She used to laugh at my jokes
You pat my back when I choke
Wish we were stuck in our ways
We way too young to get old
