I survived it you and I know that
I designed you but they don’t know no no
When I get scared and retreat underneath my two shells
The king waits for me brave and silently
He won’t punish me like the others have done
Like Cleo who sought the warmth of other suns
Held by an army of love in return
That he did not deserve
They don’t know but you and I do
The role of you the role of you
Perfectly casted and played by us two
Played by us two
Cleo destroys me over and over again
My grace it belied all the torment I knew as your friend
Standing for you but discarded at whim
‘til I learned to use my own legs by its end
But I’m crawling
I’m barely crawling
They don’t know but you and I do
The role of you the role of you
Perfectly casted and played by us two
Played by us two
I did not deserve it over and over again
I did not deserve it over and over again
I did not deserve it over and over again
deserve it over and over again
I did not deserve it over and over again
deserve it over and over again
over again
over again
over again
over again

in a place much worse then most music can catch in/on to, am streaming the album until the music can. have more faith in Hiatus Kaiyote as soundallies then a presenter could assume or guess. I love you all significantly, there's a mango honey vape, thc9 bluerazzgummies and organic cigarettes if you come through however🙏. BeatsaNdBuds
