maverick (br) - kid in a cage lyrics
[chorus]
overcame the rage
of my parents day after day
like a baby goat
i was a in a cage
tried to communicate
that i was never ok
did they ever listen?
no, there’s no f+cking way
try to k!ll myself as a form of escape
but that sh+t didn’t play
look, here i am today
how many times you tried to k!ll yourself?
wait, i guess eight
as an adult?
no! i was only eight
[verse 1]
but nowadays my problems are mine
and i never tried to be the guy
with mental declines
benzodiazepinеs
to stabilize
my crazy mind
trying to cope with life
but is hardеr than it seems
i know you try your hardest
but the hardest truth
your efforts don’t make noise
they have no volume
never gave me love, attention
only gave me food
you got me into this mess
and i’m the one who’s ungrateful?
you were so f+cking bad
so bad, no one can match
wish i was dead instead
of raising a son like that
you’re the reason why i am depressed
can’t even get up the bed
but you’re gonna blame everyone
but your f+cking ass
and you don’t even know half
the things i had to mask‘
cause in some crazy way
i felt like i had to protect
your mother f+ckin’ neck
from who i am, i guess
but now i don’t give f+ck
i couldn’t care less
[chorus]
overcame the rage
of my parents day after day
like a baby goat
i was a kid in a cage
tried to communicate
that i was never ok
did they ever listen?
no, there’s no f+cking way
try to k!ll myself as a form of escape
but that sh+t didn’t play
look, here i am today
how many times you tried to k!ll yourself?
wait, i guess eight
as an adult?
no! i was only eight
[post+chorus]
i know i’m not great
never had a f+cking cane
for support in my lane
alone in this crusade
you’ve always bent me to your will
like i was a mercedes
this boy is still a kid
but one day will be the greatest
i know you were ashamed
by the look on your face
and the things that you said
yeah, i could feel the hate
[bridge]
he was a dad to me
now he is dead to me
never wanted that to be like this
and i was a cool kid
grown and accused
of being wrong for whatever reason
[chorus]
overcame the rage
of my parents day after day
like a baby goat
i was a kid in a cage
tried to communicate
that i was never ok
did they ever listen?
no, there’s no f+cking way
try to k!ll myself as a form of escape
but that sh+t didn’t play
look, here i am today
how many times you tried to k!ll yourself?
wait, i guess eight
as an adult?
no! i was only eight
[post+chorus]
i know i’m not great
never had a f+cking cane
for support in my lane
alone in this crusade
you’ve always bent me to your will
like i was a mercedes
this boy is still a kid
but one day will be the greatest
i know you were ashamed
by the look on your face
and the things that you said
yeah, i could feel the hate
never had a f+ckin’ pound
but i’ve always been a weight
there were days when you made me feel like a king… checkmate
there were days when you made me feel like a king in a checkmate
in a checkmate
like a king in a checkmate
i was trapped in a checkmate
[pre+chrous]
i know i’m not great
never had a f+cking cane
for support in my lane
alone in this crusade
you’ve always bent me to your will
like i was a mercedes
this boy is still a kid
but one day will be the greatest
[chorus]
try to k!ll myself as a form of escape
but that sh+t didn’t play
look, here i am today
how many times you tried to k!ll yourself?
wait, i guess eight
as an adult?
no! i was only eight
only eight…
