rainbows by William Crooks Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, what a long year it's been
But when hasn't a year been long
Not a year go by something didn't go wrong
Tell me, have I always had this hate in my heart?
When the batteries finally run out, will the game restart?
I don't know
I don't know, I hope so
'Cause I've been trying to find a place to put my car into park
It's like that (I don't even have a fucking car)
Running around town, it's all I do
I'm running around town picking up change to buy new shoes
When I was twenty-four, I wanted this pair of Saint Laurent boots
Then the world caught on fire
And it don't make sense anymore
Does the Louis Vuitton help fill the hole?
Did the Gucci shoes help heal your soul?
[Pre-Chorus]
My Nikes worn to the soles
All my clothes, they got holes
And I can still strike a pose
I'm just tryna save my soul
I'm just tryna save my...
[Chorus]
Rainbow in the sky, did you put a wish on it?
Did you follow it home?
Did you get what you wanted?
The life you dreamed, did it heal you?
Will the morning come?
The night's been so long
New day bring the dawn
I don't get no fuckin' sleep around here
The sun won't come up
The night's so damn long
And I'm always fucked up
[Verse 2]
Was it worth it when you killed a man in cold blood?
And you took what he owned
And took from a mother her son
Your only families apart
Was it worth that new car?
Was it worth the picket fence, four kids, and dog in the yard?
You don't even live here, you live behind a gate
Are you scared the boogey man gon' make you pay for all the things that you take?
Well I will
Yeah, I will
The current it pull me under
Cloudy waters, vision blurry
If I could just swim through it
Maybe I'll get to see into my thirties (Fuck)
The future is paralyzing
Past, present, no surprises
Light a candle for each year I haven't died
[Pre-Chorus]
My Nikes worn to the soles
All my clothes, they got holes
And I can still strike a pose
I'm just tryna save my soul
I'm just tryna save my soul, my soul
[Chorus]
Rainbow in the sky, did you put a wish on it?
Did you follow it home?
Did you get what you wanted?
The life you dreamed, did it heal you?
Will the morning come?
The night's been so long
New day bring the dawn
I don't get no fuckin' sleep around here
The sun won't come up
The night's so damn long
And I'm always fucked up
[Outro]
And I'm always fucked up
And I'm always fucked up
And I'm always fucked up
And I'm always fucked up
And I'm always fucked up
And I'm always fucked up
Yeah, what a long year it's been
But when hasn't a year been long
Not a year go by something didn't go wrong
Tell me, have I always had this hate in my heart?
