Caye - Merry Go 'Round lyrics
[Caye - Merry Go 'Round lyrics]
And 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
See, when I was a kid, I be staring at PBS
Or playing tag at 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
'casue life's a gift and I
Saw it as a blessing whenever I went 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
As if I was just messing?
And things have changed, now that I am 17
I start to realize that
People often never dream
Sad to question how more on why we disagree
And why we so mean
I'm wondering why so few people
Have had a dream
And I'm wishing that it will
Just all slow down
I'm just trying to 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
And 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
La la, lalalala la la lalalala la la
Lalalala la la
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 limit's
Oh, I got suspended
Shouts to Chancelor Bennett
Teachers acting offended
Really they just pretending
My parents on my ass saying 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
Hoping nobody could see me
Peacing to Hollywood
And it has been like a dream
I just haven't woke up it's time to grow 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
And 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
La la, lalalala la la lalalala la la
Lalalala la la
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
See, when I was a kid, I be staring at PBS
Or playing tag at 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
'casue life's a gift and I
Saw it as a blessing whenever I went wrong
