Carousel Lyrics by Nick Kopel

TheComeUp

2021

[Verse 1]
It’s been a long life
I’ve been through many long nights
I remember laying in bed holding my knife
I can easily say I was a kid trying to survive
I don’t think you understand how far I strive
But now it’s my turn to drive
So I dive head first
I burst open a world I used to live alone
Wake up in the morning putting on Deodorant and cologne
Wanted to smell nice for the pretty ladies
But at the same time ignored every single Daisy
I couldn’t date someone while shit at home was happening
Laying in the pitch black imagining
A bеtter place
Trust me baby girl I will nеver forget your face
I was catching a case of wanting to chase you down the hall
Ask you for your number and if I could call
But I said fuck it my chances are small
Then I remembered home
I don’t even have a phone
When I was younger we played sticks and stones
I did date this one girl
She thought I wanted to kiss quick
I decided to give up cause I wasn’t dealing with that shit
Just wanted to talk face to face
Anywhere is better than this place
Nothing can replace my memories of dread
I just hope I can replace them with this bread
Back in the day I was hanging on by a thread because I didn’t have a gun to put to my head
One day one was brought into the house
I was gonna but then I thought of my mom and sisters
Not that I would miss her but where would I be when he hit her
I didn’t do shit but At Least I was a witness
My thoughts might be vicious but the fact I tell them are business

[Verse 2]
One day he threw a coffee cup
Almost hit me in the head
He thought I was mom but she was still in bed
I brushed the pieces off and walked out
Said I’m going to school
You will never understand my type of fuel
I swim in a pool of memories
That I will repeat for centuries
Writing my own documentaries
I felt like I was alone for so long
And so I hoped I’d write a song
But god help me be wrong
But I know I’m not
So I thought
What if I brought this shit to your attention
Who else would have a connection
Use this as a reflection
That even when you’re down you might have a suggestion
Intuition is what made me a musician and my mission is to have you listen
I want enough money to keep distant
Upload music consistent
Be able to make this commitment to my fans
I have big plans and they in action
All I need is a reaction with passion
I need to gain some traction
This is my distraction
All I need is someone to believe to water my seed
I’m doing my part to succeed
I grew up to be a different breed
Guess it was from all those nights I didn’t get to feed
