a compilation of my favorite lines of my songs by the artist grandson, part 1. adjusted slightly where necessary for rp purposes. feel free to change pronouns/tenses/etc where needed! trigger warning for drug mention and violence.
i have done bad things, did them to good people.
got no self-control, it’s the root of my evil.
there is war in my head while i’m trying to keep it peaceful.
i’ve been caught up in the riptide for too long, 'cause it’s all i know.
these bad habits, they die too slow.
i get high to leave all these problems on the ground. then, to my surprise, they’re all right there when i come back down.
but if you love me, let me go.
got pulled by the current ‘till i’m running out of breath.
got pulled back down ‘till the water is in my chest.
what you gon’ do when there’s blood in the water?
the price of your greed is your son and your daughter.
look me in the eyes, tell me everything is not fine.
you poisoned me just for another dollar in your pocket.
won’t accept your silence.
when the last tree’s fallen, the animals can’t hide.
the kid’s got a dark side that you don’t want to meet at all.
push too far, you’ll see.
he never went to check under his bed.
he was living with the monsters in his head.
feeling all alone, it was him against them.
you can’t run, you can’t hide.
when i go into the ground, i won’t go quietly.
they gotta bury me face down.
from the rubble, what do i see?
there's a whole damn army thinkin' that they're gonna harm me.
oh, i got troubles that won’t let me be.
i won't get tired, set the town on fire, 'till my troubles got trouble with me.
i’ve been on the run since i was a boy.
i’ve been counted out, left for dead.
wanted with a bounty on my head.
thinkin' that they've won, it's only just begun.
i lose a bit of myself with every selfie.
lose sleep over wealth, it’s not healthy.
finding a new religion on yelp to come help me.
she say she love me at dusk, but at dawn i pack up my things and I'm gone.
never been a perfect soul, but i will not apologize.
and I did a lot wrong I can't make right.
i'm living with nothing to fear out here.
i never learned from my mistakes, until I'm too late to do anything.
i'm lonely, sitting in this crowded room.
all of my best friends like to go and get fucked up.
they talk about all the lives they never got to live.
they're still waiting for some sort of invitation.
oh no, you'll get just what you give.
i'm just reading about flaws that I didn't know I had.
watching ads for things i didn't know i need.
sometimes you gotta leave that city to love that city.
but it doesn't look so pretty to get your hands dirty.
you gotta leave that city to love that city or else you might get trapped.
idle hands are the devil’s best friend.
baby, won't you help me, please?
Won't you help me, down on my knees?
trigger finger will, 'til i get my happy pill.
i'm a gun, i'm a gun, won't you shoot me off?
when I lay down in your bed i get a blood-rush to my head.
no, i never get to sleep at night ‘cause I'm thinkin' 'bout you inside.
i'll do anything, just tell me what you need.
blood on the land from the man that I had to kill.
the goodbye is the hardest part.
we find ourselves back at the start.
but i'm not so brave, and I'm not so smart.
one day you will understand why i pushed you away as i am.
you will find a better man than i am.
if i were you, i wouldn't love me neither.
the boy who fell into the sky had no one there to watch him cry.
how i wish i told a different tale.
we chased the light and his love prevailed.
his blood went cold and his skin went pale.
