Lyrics

Round and round on the carousel

Feeling stuck in a repetitive cycle or situation, symbolized by a carousel.

I want to get off but I can't

Desire to break free from the cycle but unable to do so.

Nothing I do ever works out end up right back at the start

Constantly failing or facing setbacks, returning to the same starting point.


Step off of the plane in my home town

Returning to the singer's hometown.

I hate the way you always look down

Feeling judged or looked down upon by someone.

On me you're never gonna think that wherever I am is where I ought to be now

Belief that the person judging will never accept the singer's current situation.

I want to believe in your good intentions

Wishing to trust the intentions of someone.

I always seem let you down

Feeling like constantly disappointing the person.

I'm always failing in your predictions

Consistently failing to meet expectations or predictions.

Push my head in watch me drown

Feeling overwhelmed or suffocated by pressure from someone.


Hold it in, count to ten blow it back out

Attempting to control emotions, then releasing them.

Broken down from a pound to a stack now

Feeling emotionally worn down.

Broken but hoping you'll hear this out

Despite being broken, hoping to be heard and understood.

As the words fall right out of my mouth

Expressing emotions directly and openly.


I don't want to see you in my mentions

Desire to avoid seeing reminders of disappointment or letdowns.

Every time you let me down

Repeated disappointment from the same source.

I'm Better off without my suspicions

Belief that being suspicious is better than being let down.

You're Better off without me around

Thinking that leaving the situation is better for both parties.


Round and round on the carousel

Reiteration of feeling trapped in a cyclical pattern.

I want to get off but I can't

Reiterating the desire to break free from the cycle.

Nothing I do ever works out end up right back at the start

Continued frustration at perpetual failures, returning to the start.


To the start of my memories no one fucking with my art and you defending me

Reflecting on past memories without interference from others, emphasizing defending artistic expression.

It's hard to believe that you got me to see that on my motherfucking own

Surprised that independence was achieved without outside influence.

Is the way I'm supposed to be so

Questioning if independence is the expected path.

I suppose opportunities grow

Considering potential growth opportunities despite uncertainties.

But do I really give a fuck if you won't be at my show

Contemplating whether someone's absence affects the singer's performances.

On and on, always stressing bout the songs that I wrote

Continuous stress and worry about the songs created.

On and on, when the world ends nobody knows

Speculating about the uncertainty surrounding the end of the world.

While the world spins, I got lots of places to go i got some changes

Feeling a need for change and having ambitions to explore.

I want to make I got some money to blow

Wanting to make changes and spend money without restraint.

And on the day I die I can't take that shit with me so

Realization that material possessions don't matter upon death.

Ima try to do something you remember for

Desire to leave a memorable legacy or impact.
