"Tightrope" lyrics

"Tightrope"

And I've been walking that tightrope, swinging in the sky
They just see me floatin', never wondered why
They just think that I know, I don't, space is way too close
Bouncin' as the breeze goes
I've been walkin' that tightrope, swinging in the sky
They just see me floatin', keep passin' me by
They just think that I know, I don't, yeah-yeah

And I've been walkin' on that thin little string in the air
Tryna get a better view to find a care in the world
And I think I got the juice, take a sip, perfection in the subtlety
Enough to take a break from my trapeze and plant some money trees
I'm way too high
I can't even see the ground
I'm tryna reach the stars, I'm puttin' space between my peers
And now if snakes could fly
I'd be surrounded by these other artists tryna get a part of what I started, just to vent my problems
This ain't the circus, but y'all seen my trips, right? (Right?)
Y'all think you know me, but I ain't a lick
I get caught up on all the analytics, sci-fi on the number crunch
Wonderin' why not a single label put some money up (Why?)
I'm runnin' outta options, outta thoughts to make a song about
This lately got me askin' everybody if I've done enough (I doin' tho?)
Think I'd be done by now
But at least this music business' fun to be around (True)

And I've been walking that tightrope, swinging in the sky
They just see me floatin', never wondered why
They just think that I know, I don't, space is way too close
Bouncin' as the breeze goes (That is why)
I've been walkin' that tightrope, swinging in the sky
They just see me floatin', keep passin' me by
They just think that I know, I don't, yeah-yeah (Ouuu-oh, yeah-yeah)
