Playing Pretend Lyrics by Razing

2019

[Intro]
Yeah! Hahahaha!

[Chorus 1]
Stop trying man, you won't get nowhere
Often the hatred got to me, but now that's rare
Because I'm young and stupid and got no scars to rap about
Always doubting, so annoying, wait till they see how I turn out

[Verse 1]
To be honest, those people are probably right
Haven't had it tough, my future lookin' bright
Does that stop me from doing what I wanna do?
Nobody said, "Only cool have rap to choose"
But then again a dull life, don't appeal to others when human
Wanna learn how cool lives stem

[Interlude]
Wait, so what am I even gonna do?

[Verse 2]
I could imagine my life's intriguing when I'm just a middle school boy playing pretend

[Chorus 2]
Stop trying man, you won't get nowhere
You gotta make up stuff or you'll disappear
And it isn't lying if I'm implying I'm lying
So don't start crying, I'm verifying, I'm playing pretend

[Verse 3]
I'm feeling [?], I'm strolling by the road (strolling by the road)
You can see, come to me, try to push your rare hopes
Just like last week when I came to your house (came to your house)
[?] to my aura
But you got up, you'll [?], "Stop, don't meet me again!"
I told him, "Don't listen to love, you'll let him be my best friend"
Now you're on your knees crying [?] smacking your face
[?] in your face
But what can I say? Animals love me, I'm great
Families think I'm okay, and I can manage the hate
With a smile on my face
Seems like I'm from outer space, enemies, they motivate
Thinking they slowing me down, but they just making sure I win this race
Tendency to do things late, destiny I'm tryna make
Apparently, I wasn't made for this, but people can dream, can't they?
Delicately choosing my faith, while you think it'll be a piece of cake
Struggling hard right now, so later on, I'll be great

[Chorus 3]
Keep going man, you are doing great
I love your music, it's fire, ignore all the hate
If you keep this up, you will succeed, there's no debate
Glad I met you before you get famous, mate

[Verse 4]
Hold up, what is [?], please shut up
Under your skin, you're jealous of me
[?]
What's the point of even trying
Remember how bad it was before, well, looking back it's clarifying
At a party when we first met, I said, "Hey, this party's boring lol"
Was just tryna be nice, so I say, "After this, wanna ball?"
But then you started laughing, "Ha, ha! You're that guy!"
"What guy?"
"That guy! Who tries to rap and stuff!"
"Oh, um, yeah, thanks, well I just do it for fun"
"Well I must be wasting your time. You probably got tons of nine-year-olds wanting a song about shapes"
You'd play it off by laughing at me
But you saw my potential and feared I wouldn't stop
I'm not gonna stop
