lauryn marie & liz moss - cardboard castle lyrics

[verse 1]
way back when i was in school
they all would laugh at the heart on my jacket sleeve
i couldn’t follow the rules
i broke the ceiling and left no apologies

[pre+chorus]
you say my head’s in the clouds
but now i’m seeing stars that you’ll never see
you’re trying to bring me down
saying i’ll live in a cardboard box on the street

[chorus]
you don’t need to pity me ‘cause
i’m drowning in currency
made of joy, made of truth
that’s all i need to use
it’s not all in my head
baby don’t you forget
while you’re there bragging ‘bout your diamond shackles
i’ll be dancing in my cardboard castle

[verse 2]
and now a couple years down
the road, i paint every town with those school+kid dreams
you laughed at my paper crown
but now it’s shining with my golden symphonies
[pre+chorus]
you say my head’s in the clouds
but now i’m seeing stars that you’ll never see
said that i won’t make it out
now i forget your name but you sure know me

[chorus]
you don’t need to pity me ‘cause
i’m drowning in currency
made of joy, made of truth
that’s all i need to use
it’s not all in my head
baby, don’t you forget
while you’re there bragging ‘bout your diamond shackles
i’ll be dancing in my cardboard castle
in my cardboard castle, oh

[bridge]
swimming up, up, up, up
because the battle’s in my blood, blood, blood, blood
through the water see the sun, sun, sun, sun
just a glimmer is enough, nough, nough, nough
to keep me going

swimming up, up, up, up
because the battle’s in my blood, blood, blood, blood
through the water see the sun, sun, sun, sun
just a glimmer is enough, nough, nough, nough
to keep me going
[chorus]
you don’t need to pity me ‘cause
i’m drowning in currency (one, two, three, four!)
made of joy, made of truth
that’s all i need to use
it’s not all in my head
baby, don’t you forget
while you’re there bragging ‘bout your diamond shackles
i’ll be dancing in my cardboard castle

[outro]
my cardboard castle
in my cardboard castle
my cardboard castle
