lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’m a prisoner to the city
I was born with a chain on my neck
I used to think the bright lights were so pretty
But now they’re gone and I think I’m a wreck
We can’t dig holes in the pavement
But that’s okay, we lived in the sand
We’re sinking and need someone to save us
So hoist me up with your fragile hands
Locked up by taxis and transit
A silver cigarette tucked in your ear
Heat’s dropping and I can’t stand it
I’m still looking for what I wanna hear
[Chorus]
I get sucked into my own mind
Cast out from my own kind
I always say the wrong thing at the right time
Painting structures, bases punchline
Pretty faces, hotline
Changing paces combine
Give us more time
[Verse 2]
My rhymes are young but my reasons are ancient
And I forget what I do with my lungs
Petrified people from strange places
Tell me who I am, lead with your tongue
Give your wrist and I promise I’ll take it
Why don’t you follow me into the world?
Know your enemies: friends who can’t fake it
The paper crane, it tends to unfold
[Chorus]
I get sucked into my own mind
Cast out from my own kind
I always say the wrong thing at the right time
Painting structures, bases punchline
Pretty faces, hotline
Changing paces combine
Give us more time
[Bridge]
Break me out of here
Whispers ‘round my ear (Changing faces)
Break me out of here (Changing paces)
Whispers ‘round my ear (Changing faces)
Ah! (Changing paces)
