Goodbye
Razakel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, (goodbye)

(chorus)
goodbye, goodbye
to all the artificial people in my life
I never wanted you around me, so be on your way
now that I finally got a name, all the sudden you wanna stay
(interlude)
now everybody wants to come around me, down and be my homie, right
now everybody likes my shit like I got a fucking dick, right
but I know who's got my back and who's been here the entire time
I got my own family behind me and we're ready to fight

I'm so sorry I'm not that bitch that you wanted me to be
I'm so sorry it took me this long to finally see
I'm just your prisoner held captive, how I long to be free
but I never will be, because you own that part of me
I'm only 22 years old and all I ask is to be happy
but I can't cause you play daddy and constantly hover above me
it's gone, it's non-existed, it's finally deceased
love died inside of you and then you killed it in me

(chorus)
goodbye, goodbye
to all the artificial people in my life
I never wanted you around me, so be on your way
now that I finally got a name, all the sudden you wanna stay

(interlude)
now everybody wants to come around me, down and be my homie, right
now everybody likes my shit like I got a fucking dick, right
but I know who's got my back and who's been here the entire time
I got my own family behind me and we're ready to fight

Mommy, Daddy, look what you've done to me
I'm so broken, I'm so hopeless
all because you never believed in me

you're so blind, you can't see, so I scream fuck your god
fuck your cross, I think for myself, I'm not lost or brainwashed
but there's a war inside my heart between the two things that I want
but could never have both, is what I've always been taught
so I gotta be strong, I gotta keep moving on
no more sad songs, I shoulda stayed alone all along
try in realize, understand my sight
I've had a rough, fucked up life, but he came along and opened my eyes

(chorus)
goodbye, goodbye
to all the artificial people in my life
I never wanted you around me, so be on your way
now that I finally got a name, all the sudden you wanna stay

(interlude)
now everybody wants to come around me, down and be my homie, right
now everybody likes my shit like I' got a fucking dick, right




but I know who's got my back and who's been here the entire time
I got my own family behind me and we're ready to fight
