victor ray - sticks and stones lyrics
[intro: victor ray]
i never needed
i never needed you
oh, let alone anyone
we can leave this dead and gone
i never needed
i never needed you
oh let alone anyone
we can leave this dead and gone
oh
[verse 1: victor ray]
grew up in a city known for cheaper alcohol
where the dreamers go to wipe their mind of every single thought
where the clouds are grey enough to block out every star
until the thought of ever reaching them is lost, no
the only to see them was to run far away
only way to touch them was to work every day
but the, the thought of failure plagues my heart and my head
and i can’t get this weight up off my chest, no, no
[chorus: victor ray & strandz]
sticks and stones can’t break my bones
no, words won’t bring me down
mama told me, “stand up tall
don’t let them take your crown”
even when you touch the sky
they’ll say you’re on the ground
sticks and stones can’t break my bones
no, words won’t bring me down, yeah (yeah)
[verse 2: strandz]
and they ain’t break my bones (look)
but we can do damage with a stick, no stones (yeah)
in this whip full of chrome
i’m a pr+ck, i know (uh+huh)
in this mad city, gotta be a psycho just to call it my home
why you think we fly more? (huh)
if you don’t see the tears, that just means he cried more
in here, you stay for life, or sacrifice your mind for (shh)
that military mindset, he don’t wanna die yet
he did it for survival
[chorus: victor ray]
sticks and stones can’t break my bones
no, words won’t bring me down
mama told me, “stand up tall
don’t let them take your crown”
even when you touch the sky
they’ll say you’re on the ground
sticks and stones can’t break my bones
no, words won’t bring me down, yeah
[verse 3: kojey radical]
my only thoughts walkin’ through all the p+ssed+stained staircases
was, “do it on your own, less people to catch a case with”
the ones that play the bravest needed a mask to feel like jason
these days i’m less involved, but been adjacent to the stainless
i’ve been around the world and i, i, i
still can’t find no peace in my mi+ind
even with a knife in my back, i left behind
i was juugin’ off the super cell, but can’t rewind
time don’t pull up, bad man ah go forward with the sticks and stones
these days, i’m done talkin’ to ’em
talk or i can show ’em how to walk and hope they follow movement
made it look too easy
now they thinkin’ that there’s nothin’ to it
[chorus: victor ray]
sticks and stones can’t break my bones
no, words won’t bring me down
mama told me, “stand up tall
don’t let them take your crown”
even when you touch the sky
they’ll say you’re on the ground
sticks and stones can’t break my bones
no, words won’t bring me down, yeah
[verse 4: victor ray]
i wanna use the gifts i’m given
i’m spendin’ days and nights and weeks up in the kitchen
not just tryna make livin’
i’ve been tryna make a difference
i’ll make a change and some change on the side
so my family can never want for nothin’
i’ve been sufferin’
i’ve been thrivin’ and i’ve been in between
i’ve been on the road to riches since i was like seventeen
pocket full of dreams of stadiums singin’ back at me
in reality, it’s just faces passin’ on the street
i’m tryin’ desperately to make them stop and notice me
maybe that will stop these doubts from creepin’ in and chokin’ me
hopefully, look
the biggest battle is the one against myself
the enemy of my potential and my mental health
but i’ll never let that voice under my skin
i’ll never let him in
i’ll never let him in
i’ll never let him win
so i’ll remember from whence i came
i used to find a comfort in these whispers
but i’m glad that i can finally say
[outro]
i never needed
i never needed you
oh, let alone anyone
we can leave this dead and gone
i never needed
i never needed you
oh, let alone anyone
we can leave this dead and gone
