Ryan Oakes - Castles lyrics

[Hook: Delaney Kai] Life in the fast lane, we play our cards Praying we'll find out just who we are We built us a mansion, from broken hearts And filled all the emptiness with broken parts King of this castle, I wear the crown Hoping it lives on when I reach the ground The demons in my head, all dance around I'm facing this bottle, and praying they drown [Verse 1: Ryan Oakes] b**h I been the king of this castle, I built it from the gravel Been slaving everyday with no shackles, I figured that i'd tackled The work and all the battles, a**ociated with this life I'm everything but fragile I heard they wanna come for me Well that's company, homie that's luxury, people wanna f** with me Luckily I got me a foundation, and a location good for when it gets ugly Yeah, don't tell me slow my roll Homie give that sh** a rest and put that sh** on parole I give my heart and my soul, until I'm reaching the goal Of having everything I wanted so I'm building a mote I'm isolated alone, I'm working up till it's late See I been battling with destiny and wrestling fate They always try to get the best of me they testing my pace Man I can how much i want so imma never escape And so I learned to embrace, all of the pain to be great And then I learn to erase all of the things in my way And then you learn to replace all of the things in the gape That left you empty wanting more and then it's finally straight And now I'm finding the strength, to try and shepherd the cattle Who stuck in a capsule living life in their shackles Tryna though the day, they tryna get through these battles And never let them into these castles, Oakes [Hook: Delaney Kai] Life in the fast lane, we play our cards Praying we'll find out just who we are We built us a mansion, from broken hearts And filled all the emptiness with broken parts King of this castle, I wear the crown Hoping it lives on when I reach the ground The demons in my head, all dance around I'm facing this bottle, and praying they drown [Verse 2: Ryan Oakes] I need everyone wake up, ya'll building your own funeral Sitting inside a cubicle wishing your life is beautiful Its inexcusable, if your happiness isn't mutual With everything your doing, your living is so unsuitable And all of its removable, people think they're trapped In a history repeats itself cycle of the past Yeah simplicity a sweet and safe life until you smash In the mysteries of could've been then everything will crash Then everything will burn, and the only thing that's left Is the person in the mirror tryna swallow their regret Overthinking every night and realizing they're depressed Tryna get through every day cause they're a motherf**ing wreck I don't mean no disrespect, but this sh** is your life You wanna waste it in an office knowing you don't get it twice And you won't second guess it for a second till it bites You in the a** up on your d**h bed when you wish you did it right Normal can't suffice, everybody gotta destiny They settling for less than they deserve its in the recipe Pa**ion equals profit perseverance is your weaponry To build you up a motherf**ing legacy Everyone pretend to be happy through out all these battles They stuck in they capsules and they bound to their shackles See I'm here to tackle, flip the world the world on its axles And show 'em how to give up these castles, Oakes [Hook: Delaney Kai] Life in the fast lane, we play our cards Praying we'll find out just who we are We built us a mansion, from broken hearts And filled all the emptiness with broken parts King of this castle, I wear the crown Hoping it lives on when I reach the ground The demons in my head, all dance around I'm facing this bottle, and praying they drown
