Circus
High Knights
Are you celebrating who you are while acknowledging what makes you you? I believe we have all once been pure but never been perfect. The differences we have between each other makes like a kind of freak show or circus so to speak. I am a clown in this freak show and I am happy with that.
The Lyrics
Verse 01
I’m a clown and a freak in this circus,
free thinker,
definitely not worthless
and unique under the surface.
I believe in what we got in our hands,
and what we don’t have
we don’t understand.
I accept the greatest architect
that designed land may
have screwed up,
somewhere in his plans
when he created man.
Maybe not? Maybe this is meant to be.
What reality you live in?
Same shit different century,
you gotta stay driven.
whats the balance yo?
I’m feeling like I’m on a tight rope,
no suspension only suspicion.
I need to get a grip
definitely with my cash flow,
I can’t stop. once you hit the break
your broke, ya know!
(Chorus)
Once pure,
Never was perfect.
I’m a clown, a freak in this circus.
You ain’t ever gonna hold me down.
Never ever gonna control me now.
Live it up! Never ever gonna give it up!
Verse 02
I ain’t one to look up-to,
But I have stuck through,
times when I did some stuff
I didn’t want to.
Call it rough when life goes against you.
If only my friends knew,
what I don’t do when I
spend time with them.
Something I won’t sacrifice
to come out winning.
It sucks! we must play
amongst the bucks,
lay next to the ones we cuss.
we’re all in the system.
It’s all make believe.
Fake goals to tackle.
Keep your eye on your watch.
Keep your hand on your ball
and your mind on the plot.
Ask why and you stop.
Try to get to where you want!
Just do you man,
no matter what the measures you got.
(chorus)
Verse 03
I’m not ordinary, I’m sort of scary.
Wanna pick a bone with me?
Problem is I got too many.
I’m fishing for all the answers
why all the time,
but I picked the wrong jetty.
I’m crazy I’m insane!
A little outta my mind.
At least I’m honest.
Half the world
don’t even know themselves,
so they chasing their tails.
Me? I’m raising my sails!
About to go to sea,
swim among the whales.
Free willy maybe outta my depth.
Not a care if anybody
will ever notice me,
or show some respect, so to speak.
Let me down if you wanna
by being a fake.
But your only killing yourself
being somebody you ain’t.
(chorus)
