Caye - Merry Go 'Round lyrics
rate me(Hook x2)
In the merry-go-round
Even tho I'm broke
I know I'm still a child
At the bone, cause that merry go round
Even tho I'm on my own
I'll always be a child
At the bone, cause that merry go round
(Verse)
See, when I was a kid, I be starrin' at PBS
Or playing tag on recess, feeling no need to be stressed
Could get whatever I want with just a simple request
Playing the part with no rest and come on in refreshed
It's like it's a gift and I saw it as a blessing
Whenever I was wrong, we moved on and learned a lesson
I never felt the need to take a hit or blow the rezin
But now the feeling's gone, is it I was just messing?
And things have changed, now that I am 17
I start to realize that people often never _____(?)
Sad to question how more on we disagree
And why was so mean, I'm wonderin' why so few people have had a dream
(Pre-Hook)
And I'm wishin' that it will just all slow down
I'm just tryna forget all that I know now
That's why I breath in slow and let the smoke blow out
So pass to the left until that green go brown
(Hook)
(Interlude)
La la, lalalala la la
La la, lalalala la la
La la, lalalala la la
La la, lalalala la la
(Verse 2)
Yo, I throw it back a couple years, just for a minute
Spin it like a record, play it back until the finish
Listen to me tell it, lemme reminisce
See, it was forth grade when I first exceeded limits
Oh, I got suspended, shots to chest for Bennett
Teachers actin' offended, really they just pretendin'
My parents saw my ass sayn to pick who my friends is
Sit with it repentant, man, I never understood
How could all this punishment possibly lead to good?
Fuck a time out, I'mma live it how I should
I dipped out, while I hid my head under my hood
Hopin' nobody could see me piecin' that Hollywood
And it has been like a dream, I just haven't woke up
It's time to go up, hopefully before I blow up
You know what? I just keep on giving no fucks
Cause if the living isn't great, then you should probably smoke up
(Hook)
