Deception Lyrics

Deception lyrics

[Intro]

Shake it off. Lord, I won't do this song

This is a fight
with myself

I wanna gain much wealth

I wanna live by myself

But I'm surrounded by..

I'll keep that to myself

I'm so
stupid



[Verse]

Well hello my little friends and look at them
run

I'm still at home with no ends and look at them run

Hopping in a
tricked out Benz and look at them run

While I'm clocking in as a temp look
at them run

It is too late now to affect the whole world, or is it just
dated now?

They could care less who invaded now

Really am I silly
with the dreams of the milli'?

Top billing with a big fat record
deal-ly

First I buy a house way up on the hill-ly

Then I get a
girly dressed like Mr. Furley

Met her in Nashville or was it Philly?

Her hair so curly and look at me burly

But my dream deferred, I felt
the same words that Langston heard

I watched them pass and it seemed
absurd

A decade of dreaming

And it seeming that they just run away
with my verbs

And its..



[CHORUS]

Deception. Look at
them dancing in the field goal

Deception. I look at me and I'm getting
old

Deception. How many records have I really sold?

Deception.
Whoops I did it again boy. (2X)



[Verse]

Ten years ago I woke
up with a dream in my hand

Ran for a couple of yards, but tripped and fell
to my hands

And then got up because the Lord Almighty told me He can

Ran for a couple of more, and tripped and fumbled again

And people
asking what you getting up for go get a job

but I gotta carry out this
dream or my life I rob

And when I'm gonna work for 45 years up in the
mall

And when I'm old and gray wondering where's my calling?

And
I'd rather die now than never wonder how

Never ever try
