lemonade shadows

Verse 1

So much lemonade made beneath the shadows. When you used your eyes, it was out of reach

Made a globe of glass so you’d live inside it, snow is softer than our reality

Home was such a wreck, liability, took on every stain, clean em off with bleach

Brothers build a bond, but I’m broken, can’t fix it with glue like mom’s nativity

Prechorus 1

Traded in my shoebox scenes for all of these heavy things. I’m bigger than my body. I spit out lemon seeds.

Chorus 1

I’ve been trying to lasso our hope. Don’t want to, don’t want to let it get away from you. But I’m at the end of my rope. Just praying we’ll pull through. Someone’s gotta make sure we do.

Verse 2

Remember you were young, you missed 4th and five cuz it was late, and mom made you go to sleep

Now the tables turned you’re behind the wheel and listen to my problems like Migos on repeat

Seen me speed for miles, Beamer flying by, carve my anger out, drag it down the street

Tears roll from your eyes, red eye’s waiting, you’ve been begging me not to leave

Prechorus

Traded in our shoebox scenes for all of these heavy things. We’re bigger than our bodies. We spit out lemon seeds

Chorus

I’ve been trying to lasso our hope.

Don’t want to, don’t want to let it get away from you.

But I’m at the end of my rope.

Just praying we’ll pull through. I know that I’ve been saying that but,

I’ve been trying to lasso our hope.

Don’t want to, don’t want to let it get away from you.

But I’m at the end of my rope.

Just praying we’ll pull through. Someone’s gotta make sure we do.

(Humans trouble me at night, hope I learn someday, someday, ooo

It’s history, it’s a poem, write a poem)

Pt 2

No it don’t swim good, swim good.

Pt 3

It’s amazing how long I’ve been waiting

Hope’s a hard thing to let go

And the television’s always fading

But I’m growing in self-control
