Menace
Mr. J Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fall into lies with the love of a menace
How much your soul give way
All the love long take form of a sentence
Pray fragments show for a break
Show your deuce hit clubs where the ten is
Do the topspin score for the pain
Fall into lies with the love of a menace
How much your soul give way
Fall into lies with the love of a menace
How much your soul give way
All the love long take form of a sentence
Pray fragments show for a break
Show your deuce hit clubs where the ten is
Do the topspin score for the pain
Fall into lies with the love of a menace
How much your soul give way
I assume when they say pretty hurts
They meant the hooked not the ring
Fool's gold look good in the dirt
But wear and tear blistering
Gained rough hands to make it work
And yet my strength withering
The roses are dying
Your tulips keep lying
While my two lips eyeing
The shape of your island
Your waters keep flooding
Am I posed to be licking your wounds or under your stomach
Emotionally punching
The size of my shoulders can't carry my heart if it plummet
Earth isn't crumbling
But why does our world keep on playing the sounds of a trumpet
Increase the percussion
Cuz I can't keep crashing into the one thing I'm in love with
Rivals play home and away
Both hate into enemies
Both already know how they play
Just like when you facing me
Mirrors can't fool anything
Reflect on who you were being
Hot heads get cool when they're seeing
The real side that knew you were fleeting
Baby I'm dying can't cover these scars
Baby stop crying I'm parking the car
We can't keep lying this bad for the heart
When I pump the brakes and you drifting afar
You love the crash course you call it your art
The picture don't paint how we really depart
Delaying red flags and the luggage from start
Just to unload when the clock fits you sharp
Fall into lies with the love of a menace
How much your soul give way
All the love long take form of a sentence
Pray fragments show for a break
Show your deuce hit clubs where the ten is
Do the topspin score for the pain
Fall into lies with the love of a menace
How much your soul give way
Fall into lies with the love of a menace
How much your soul give way
All the love long take form of a sentence
Pray fragments show for a break
Show your deuce hit clubs where the ten is
Do the topspin score for the pain

The picture don't paint how we really depart
The image we project doesn't accurately depict the painful way we're separating


Delaying red flags and the luggage from start
Ignoring warning signs and emotional baggage right from the beginning


Just to unload when the clock fits you sharp
Only to reveal the burdens when it suits your timing perfectly
