Instead

Roy Raviv


I never said I love you if you want me to
But then that was the most I ever said to you
I never thought I’d be conflicted with my aspirations
Allegations only thing keeping me far away from you

I may not be able to see the forest for the trees
Renovations of the super seams
Tried to crack em and they couldn’t breathe
I can’t handle any make believe
Hazy trees and shady dreams
Singing til I’m heard and visually they will see
Put in effort into calling it I couldn't leave
And that’s the time for them to just fuckin listen and breathe
Ain't no fuckery I’m going back to Tel Aviv
(Tel aviv)

Iet me get drunk in my villa
Mixing ice with my sprite
Coldest nights they been over for a while
They don’t wanna see me do it they don’t wanna see me fight
They don’t wanna see me climb so imma show em what it do
Im'a show em who the real one in the lime light
They gon' see me when the time flies
Thinking lesser when the times right
Will only pay off with my late nights

Yeah
Life, in the place by the lake in the house where I lay my head
Time movin fast outside but I'd rather just stay in bed
Head in the clouds by the Sun where it rains but can't get me down
When I commence maybe I'd like to work but I'll dream instead

This that new shit you been requesting for months and shit
This that passing up the blunts when you been puffin that’s it
When I see you you’re just the perfect one hopping into the whip w funs
Never going back to California with the Sun yeah yeah
Because I like to wear my coat out singing 'til my throat can’t Bear to let another note out, yeah
And I been swung within a period of time
Collecting up my thoughts and letting out within the rhymes
Thats just the way that it goes
The way I taught myself to get my shit outside of the doors
But just to think where I could be when I’ll be cruising on tour
Instead of staying in my house by the lake in my bed lets just
Go to the place in the clouds where it rains that it can’t get me down
No that can’t get me down
One day they’ll say to me: Roy just come around
And I’ll be far away and livid
They’ll regret and I’ll be livin

Life, in the place by the lake in the house where I lay my head
Time movin fast outside but I'd rather just stay in bed
Head in the clouds by the Sun where it rains but can't get me down
When I commence maybe I'd like to work but I'll dream instead
