Castles

[Chorus: 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]

Bitch 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, associated with this life I’m everything, but fragile

I heard they wanna come for me (Come for me)

Well that's company, homie that’s luxury, people wanna fuck 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 shit a rest and put that shit 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 I'ma 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

[Chorus: 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, y'all building your own funeral

Sitting inside a cubicle wishing your life is beautiful

It’s inexcusable, if your happiness isn’t mutual

With everything your doing, you're living is so unsuitable

And all of it's 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 motherfucking wreck

I don’t mean no disrespect, but this shit 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 ass up on your death bed when you wish you did it right

Normal can’t suffice, everybody gotta destiny

They settling for less than they deserve it's in the recipe

Passion equals profit, perseverance is your weaponry

To build you up a motherfucking 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 it's axles

And show 'em how to give up these castles, Oakes

[Chorus: 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
