Watch Me Go by Packy Lyrics
[Verse 1: Packy]
I wish I never felt trapped, never felt alone
Always knew that someone cared I had a place to call home
But I don't
It's weird, man, I got these numbers in my phone
But no one calls to say "Hey, how are you man, what's goin' on?"
They always want something, try to take something from me
I wish I never felt used, never met a phony
But they're all over the place, and tried to take what I sliced to make or end up eating a piece of cake without asking for a plate first
I wish my hard work would pay off automatically
And all the fame and money would fall from the sky magically
But the reality is I'm still broker than my jump shot
And all I got to show for myself are these stupid thoughts, so
[Chorus: J Knox]
One day I'll see all my dreams come to life
I'll be so clean, be so cool, own my strife
Take home my painter and do something nice
I want to take off, break off, stand back, now
And watch me go
[Verse 2: Packy]
I wish I didn't know what love is, never felt that
Never thought I had a second half 'cause now I want that
Warm fuzzy feeling that always seems to leave me
I tell her she's my everything but she never believes me
I wish relationships didn't have to be hard
And I wish I never scarred when I let down my guard
Now I'm flawed, and I feel like they're all staring at me
Damn, I wish they wouldn't judge just by looking at me
Don't ever judge a book before you know it's story
I mean the cover might be nice but the pages might be scary
I wish it were all rainbows and fairies
Yeah, this ho can Dory and you never ever have to worry, but
[Chorus: J Knox]
One day I'll see all my dreams come to life
I'll be so clean, be so cool, own my strife
Take home my painter and do something nice
I want to take off, break off, stand back, now
And watch me go
[Verse 3: Packy]
I wish all my music were great, dopest shit around
Wish I never had the key, fillin' up from the underground
I wish the world would know my name every time I grace the stage
Could make thousands, go insane
Recite every song I made
But it's a constant struggle to stay true to yourself
While trying to avoid being overlooked on the shelf
I wish it all were easy, I was constantly inspired
And I could write all day and night without ever getting tired
But instead, I go to work late and then worry I'll be fired
'Cause all I do is daydream about the things that I desire
I wish I could stop wishing that it would become reality
Oh, maybe I should be careful with all this wishing, but
[Chorus: J Knox]
One day I'll see all my dreams come to life
I'll be so clean, be so cool, own my strife
Take home my painter and do something nice
I want to take off, break off, stand back, now
And watch me go
(Go, go, go, go)
[Verse 4: Packy]
I wish it all came easily
I wish I could spread my wings and fly so you people would believe in me
I wish I knew how much you really mean to me
I hope that when I reach my dreams of bigger things you're still part of my scenery
I wish she noticed that when she's in the picture it's hard for me to focus
She's the furthest thing from happiness
To love, she be the closest
It's a rollercoaster and I'm only getting older
But I'm hoping when it's over there's a rope to grab ahold of
It's sorta torture when your boy supports you in your ambition
And say you're wishing too big and aborts you in your mission
They're the first to say "I told you so"
It hurts 'cause they're supposed to know I need them
But the song goes
[Chorus: J Knox]
One day I'll see all my dreams come to life
I'll be so clean, be so cool, own my strife
Take home my painter and do something nice
I want to take off, break off, stand back, now
And watch me go
Take off, break off, stand back, now
And watch me go
I wish I never felt trapped, never felt alone
Always knew that someone cared I had a place to call home
But I don't
It's weird, man, I got these numbers in my phone
But no one calls to say "Hey, how are you man, what's goin' on?"
They always want something, try to take something from me
I wish I never felt used, never met a phony
