lyrics
I am never textbook, too busy tearin’ pages out
Wallpaper my bedroom with it, on a daily basis now
I’m sorry, killed the game, the grief will come in stages
Try to say I dumb it down, I think I take it back to basics
Get addicted, overplay it, you love it then you hate it
Tryin’ to be an overnight sensation, up until the day I wake up famous,
Man, I play this game to win, or flip the board to end it
Never been too good at losing, so why don’t we stop pretendin’?
Let’s be honest, I been putting on this whole façade
Nonexistent fan base, I've been takin’ stages, no response
But when I drop the mic I’m bankin’ on that silence
for a second then a standing ovation, that secondhand applause
Simplicity my signature, I’m runnin’ that, you too busy stuntin’, sad
I be myself, I’m lovin’ that,
Leave it all on stage, not a chance I’ll act my age,
When I’m done I sign Shakusky at the bottom of the page
Chorus
We’ll keep it goin’ all night, dancing in the streets, we don’t need to sleep
With all the city lights so bright, we’ll be goin’ til the city shuts down, goin’ til the city shuts down,
We’ll keep it goin’ all night, dancing in the streets, we don’t need to sleep
With all the city lights so bright, we’ll be goin’ til the city shuts down, goin’ til the city shuts down,
We’re never growin’ up
My persona’s immaturity, you know this
Just a kid who’s bangin’ pots and pans until you notice
Crying for attention, attention my only motive
Guess I better wrap this up because I’m quickly losing focus
Just show me where the show is, no mistakin’ that
Haters gonna hate, but I just shrug it off, I’m wavin’ back
Tomorrow’s looking better every day I’m not just sayin’ that,
Cashin’ in on talent ‘til the day I have to pay it back
You hatin’? Sad, I’m busy puttin’ work in while you’re tweetin’
Preparing for young retirement the way I spent my weekend
Fortune, fame are frequent in my plan, I am pursuin’ it
Whether or not it happens, I still had my fun
Lemme be clear for bit of a minute
I’m winnin’ and killin it, pushin’ my limits
As long as you listenin’ I’mma be grinnin’ and
whistlin’, kickin’ it by definition
Listen to me, I’m introducin’
Said I won’t stop ‘til I’m losin’
So sorry to all of the has-beens,
I’m takin’ the game as the new kid
Chorus
And I’ve been runnin’ in circles and goin’ nowhere so quickly,
but man, I really don’t mind, I’m just havin’ fun yeah no kidding
And I’ve been runnin’ in circles and goin’ nowhere so quickly,
but man, I really don’t mind, I’m just havin’ fun
Chorus
