Deranged
Choirboy Dank Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something wrong with my brain right
You don't know me you don't know a fucking thang
perfect
I'll be gone by the daylight
Coming from where we from
There ain't really nothing
Said I'm gonna run away and never stop running
Cause Imma be ... Something
Just has been that never was if I let em tell it
Should be on dead and gone
or cookin in a celly
Had something stupid tugging at my dirty soul
Just a snowball rolling through some hellish roads
Hopeless don't know really where we fucking going
Broken we all got our ways of coping
Could be the pills the smoke or the styrofoam
You don't know me you don't know what it like at home
They said I'm crazy screwed up Deranged
Something wrong with my brain right
You don't know me don't know a fucking thang
I'll be gone by the daylight
Coming from where we from
There ain't really nothing
Said I'm gonna run away and never stop running
Know you gotta dream but c'mon why you so stubborn
Cause Imma be ... something
She been working baby's hungry and the moneys spent
picked up some extra shifts
It barely covers rent
Gotta smile through the pain cause she needs the tips
Wish they could look me in they eyes not stare at my --
Been trying to hold my voice back for so long
Swear one day the whole world gonna hear my songs
Got a dream and I know I'm not the only one
Gotta show her baby girl how to do it all
They said I'm crazy screwed up Deranged
Something wrong with my brain right
You don't know me don't know a fucking thang
I'll be gone by the daylight
Coming from where we from
There ain't really nothing
Said I'm gonna run away and never stop running
Know you gotta dream but c'mon why you so stubborn
cuz Imma be ... SOMETHING
