Repetitive by Maggie Lee Lyrics
(Verse 1)
It's a game you're trapped in
Flying, crashing
Feeling like you're trapped in
I told 'em they could have it
They told me to never be stagnant
They told me to never start bragging
Repetition is known to form habits
They told me to always find balance
They told me that they saw talent
I told 'em it was just practice
I've practiced
I'm rotating on an axis
It's a game formed around tactics
You're tactless
You're an actress who ain't adapted
You're a captive who ain't been captured
Moving forwards but still go backwards
You want structure but still stay scattered
Repetition is known to form habits
You're captured but not held captive
Thinking, damn, how I let this happen
So worried about distractions, I got distracted
My hearts on my sleeve, but I wear a jacket
Sometimes it's hard speak, so I stick to rapping
Spent a couple grand on the latest fashion
Open the packet and it lacked compassion
Everyone's attracted so it's got me asking
This shit ain't lasting, but my chips is cashed in
I took two trips just to wind up last man
Money is the means so get to stacking
I've stacked it
I'm captive
I'm rapping right past this
Flying the fastest
Got no time for my feet to be dragging
Scrapes on my knees and my nerves is racking
Hit me in my sleep, but I heard them clapping
Fingers at me, but it's you who's slacking
(Verse 2)
Tried with the kick, then I pull up and whip
Keep it zip, you gotta be quick
Shoot your shot, but you just throw bricks
I'm just trynna rhyme like Mick
Skeptic but I'm not homesick
Butty thick but her mind ain't in
She checked out
You scared now?
On the prow with her hair down
I've checked in
Checked out
I'm riding with the top down
Look at me I'm hot now
Blessings start to fall down
Starting on my countdown
Preparing for the come down
Looking up like, what now
Looking down like, fuck ya'll
You wanted proof, then don't you move
Few minutes in the booth and I'll bring it to you
I got the truth, don't go down smooth
I have something to prove but don't need it from you
You say we're cool there's no heat in the room
I say it's cold and you say I assume
I tied to be bold ended up in a tomb
I thought the truth helped the flowers bloom
The sky is blue
(Verse 3)
The sky is blue, It's not new news
I just flew, landed on the moon
My heart started pumping, thumping, jumping
Can't hold on to nothing, touching something
My phone stay jumping, buzzing, bumping
I'm sorry to discuss it, fussing, stunting
Tried to say fuck it, loving
Came in Stunting on some hundreds
It was only peace you wanted
Can't nobody take it from ya
Say you want it but aren't gonna
And when something turns to nothing
Don't pretend that it was sudden
Man you watched it and did nothing
You don't like the box it comes in
Sadly that is what the sum is
(Outro)
They told me to never be stagnant
They told me to never start bragging
Repetition is known to form habits
They told me to always find balance
They told me that they saw talent
I told 'em that it was just practice
I've practiced
I'm rotating on an axis
It's a game formed around tactics
It's a game you're trapped in
Flying, crashing
Feeling like you're trapped in
I told 'em they could have it
They told me to never be stagnant
They told me to never start bragging
Repetition is known to form habits
They told me to always find balance
They told me that they saw talent
I told 'em it was just practice
I've practiced
I'm rotating on an axis
It's a game formed around tactics
You're tactless
You're an actress who ain't adapted
You're a captive who ain't been captured
Moving forwards but still go backwards
You want structure but still stay scattered
Repetition is known to form habits
You're captured but not held captive
