Paper Aeroplane Lyrics

Standing on the rooftop that's a view

Sleepless nights yeah I've had a few

Promised I would see this all the way through

Making history yeah that's what I do

I'm only focused on personal growth

Ain't got no patience for none of these hoes

Taking these hits yeah but I'm okay though

I just keep running cause that's all I know

Came back from a low that call that humbling

Thought that I'd fold but I kept on coming

Got a lot of doubts but if I know one thing

Ain't no mother fucker boutta tell me nothing

Don't need your praise, that ain't what I crave, I need me a break

Get off my case, just give me some space, less you bout pay

This shit ain't a game, pick up the pace, I'm on the chase

Stuck in my ways, this in my veins, this in my DNA

I'ma go out in a blaze like Icarus I'ma fall in to the sun

I feel like I sacrificed more than I should have I've hurt everyone that I loved

I'm trying to change for the better but lately everything has been happening at once

Anxiety getting the better of me all of this shit has been getting too much

This like the smell before the rain

This like the feeling when blood leave your vain

This like the feeling you get you're almost asleep

Then a falling sensation rocks you awake

This like the lick of a flame

This like the cold you feel before the pain

This like a paper aeroplane flying straight through the middle of a hurricane

This like an afterthought I be the underdog

They all thought I would fall been holding down the fort

Fighting to stay on top demons they never stop

Play like a juggernaut this shit is all I got

Truth is I don't even know what I want

I went searching for myself and now I'm more lost

I been chasing the night I'm connecting the dots

I'm blind in one eye so they called me Cyclops

Forget about quality

They just want quantity

Fuck bout what's trending I'll be the anomaly

Life's like monopoly

It's all about property

I am still trying to decide what I want to be

Surrounded by wannabes

I be a prodigy

Shoot for the stars like this shit is astronomy

Got my own philosophy

Don't know monotony

I made it clear I'm not waiting for nobody

Feel like I'm out here fighting for my life

Trying to swim while my hands are both tied

Can't hide from the chaos nah it lives inside

It lives inside

I been trying to find a reason to keep on but honestly

I just don't see what the point is

This world is so callous and cruel sometimes that it all kinda seem so pointless

I say I don't care I'm just scared of the things I can not control

Like no matter what I do right now

It doesn't really matter cause either way I'll die when I get old

I say I don't care I'm just scared cause I'm not ready to let go

No matter what the outcome is

It's never gonna be enough to fill the empty void I got inside my soul

I say I don't care I'm just scared of the truth I already know

That no matter how far I go I'm always gonna criticise it tell myself

I could have done it better though

I say I don't care I'm just scared and I feel like I'm all alone

This like the feeling you get

When you've run out of options they call that the end of the road

This like the smell before the rain

This like the feeling when blood leave your vain

This like the feeling you get you're almost asleep

Then a falling sensation rocks you awake

This like the lick of a flame

This like the cold you feel before the pain

This like a paper aeroplane flying straight through the middle of a hurricane

This like an afterthought I be the underdog

They all thought I would fall been holding down the fort

Fighting to stay on top demons they never stop

Play like a juggernaut this shit is all I got

Truth is I don't even know what I want

I went searching for myself and now I'm more lost

I been chasing the night I'm connecting the dots

I'm blind in one eye so they called me Cyclops
