Paperweight by Tehondi Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2020

[Hook]
Life can turn so meaningless in the end
Picking up the pieces tryna build it again
Hoping it won’t all blow away in the wind
Holding down my sanity, paperweight! Paperweight!

[Verse 1]
Ever since the start I knew exactly how it'd end
Either me victorious or forever trying to win
I could never call it quits, cause for me it sink or swim
I'm a walking Loch Ness monster; trapped in human skin
My life shall be a masterpiece; I gave myself a name
Go Cobain for my dreams; trying to keep them in the frame
Failure hits like a Tsunami; losing everything I gained
Every one leaves me more paranoid & less sane

[Hook]
Life can turn so meaningless in the end
Picking up the pieces tryna build it again
Hoping it won’t all blow away in the wind
Holding down my sanity, paperweight! Paperweight!
[Bridge]
Gotta hold it down like a paperweight
Scared to mistakes. One move can blow it all away
World is so fake. Kept it real like I’m Judge Lake
Yea

[Verse 2]
Got the world in my hands; just tryna tighten my grip
Made it so far this time. Won’t survive if I slip
Life’s a bitch! Swear to god she keep giving me lip
I’m tryna make you beautiful; stop changing your fit
And I’m not the good guy; I just chose to be this
I could wake up one day and the roles could be switched
Murder’s what he wrote! (Wrote!)
And he won’t quote the 5th!
No apologies like Yagami my foes only get... L’s!

[Hook]
Life can turn so meaningless in the end (Yea!)
Picking up the pieces tryna build it again (Let's go!)
Hoping it won’t all blow away in the wind (Uh!)
Holding down my sanity, paperweight! Paperweight!
Life can turn so meaningless in the end' (In the end!)
Picking up the pieces tryna build it again (and again)
Hoping it won’t all blow away in the wind (uh!)
Holding down my sanity, paperweight! Paperweight!
[Verse 3]
Paperweight (Weight)
Don’t wanna break. Everything’s at stake
Here to stay (Stay)
No mistake. Trust me this was fate
It's a vibe (Vibe)
Kept it real like I’m Judge Lake
Love hate (Hate)
Use it all to fill the bus tank
All I had to do is put my mind to it
Every time I breakdown, pull aside & fine tune it
Had a whole squad with me; left em all behind due to the
Fact, they settled early; which I find stupid
Okay here we go! (here we go')
Everything crashing down aye'
Tidal wave knocking me around!
Stealing all of my humanity (call it banditry!)
Holding tight to my sanity (to my sanity!)
Everything I built is vanishing. Such calamity
Starting over is insanity. Life is vanity
A broken record forced to keep taking life for a spin
No matter how much i break, I keep pushing to win!
Yea!

[Hook]
Life can turn so meaningless in the end (Yea!)
Picking up the pieces tryna build it again (Let's go!)
Hoping it won’t all blow away in the wind (Uh!)
Holding down my sanity, paperweight! Paperweight!
Life can turn so meaningless in the end' (In the end!)
Picking up the pieces tryna build it again (and again)
Hoping it won’t all blow away in the wind (uh!)
Holding down my sanity, paperweight! Paperweight!
[Outro]
