picket fences Lyrics

Wish I could shrink the world

And place it in your palm

'Cause I want to see you smile

My troubles feel so calm

Cause you got real estate inside my head

So why don't you come stay with me instead

And I finally got up out my fucking bed

Cause I hang on every word you ever said

And I'm out the streets for good this time, I swear

I'm happy where I stand, couldn't you tell?

And I'll give you my heart for us to share

Just promise to me that you will always be there

Cause I said this all before, and every time I end up

Being told that I'm doing too much or never enough

My world was flipped the day I fell in love

Shit… I gotta act like I been here before

Cause girl you make me 17 again

But that's the age I took my first L to the chin

Yet here you are digging your nails into my skin

These days it's getting harder to pretend

How much time we got to spend

Till we get to have our picket fence

Living room we turning on the Grinch

Fell in love ain't been the same since

How much time we got to spend

Till we get to have our picket fence

Can we fast forward till then?

Said you done carved every letter of your name into my psyche

Etched every detail of your face into my brain I swear that imma make you wifey

Just as long as you be true with me, it's spite me

It's a world full of violence, streets full with riots

But when you inside this home ain't gotta worry bout the fighting

Girl I'm Glad I made you like me

Hope that you like me

I ain't been inside a church in years

But I got everything I prayed for, it blew up in my face, so much hurt and tears

But I can't give up on myself that's so much worse than fear

Just let me get back on my feet I'll make it work from here

Not good at catching on to something when it first appears

You can't assume if you don't ever say a word it clear

I picked the worst career

But you still be so supportive damn I think I found my person here

I'm all yours baby,

Aim too high, they'll always fall short baby

Close to the goal like a small forward baby

You make me feel 100 feet tall, lord save me

Cause if I trip and fall, it's a long way down

The reason why I wanna let it all play out

They always in games I'm just all played out

Can't wait til I see you my fit is all laid out

I got a couple dollars to my name, some chips and a soda

I ain't think that I could ever get this chip off my shoulder

Heart so cold like it's sent from Minnesota

I'm drunk on you I take a sip then it's over

Fighting for you, may as well enlist I'm a soldier

Put my hand up in your hip then we dip, like I showed ya

We never the screen when we sit on the sofa

All I wanna do is kiss your lips like I'm 'posed to

How much time we gotta spend

Til we get to have our Pickett fence

Take me out the game to watch rent

I fell in love ain't been the same since

How much time we gotta spend

Til we get to have our Pickett fence

Can we fast forward til then

I said I'm all yours baby

The way you looking at me imma fall for it baby

Said you hard handle give me all your crazy

It ain't PG-13 I ain't Paul George baby
