Castles

B.o.B - Castles

Splendidyang

Everything I ever said

Everything that I have done

Tryna show her it's my time

Building mansions in my mind

Now that's all so yesterday

I'm just lighting up my fire

Tell the world I'm sick, goodbye

You ask me why

I'm building castles in the sky

I'm building castles in the sky

I used to ride around town in a whatchu call it

Looking like a demo rapper, feeling like a dusty wallet

Getting fired, then hired, then re-fired

The idiot's guide to how to build an empire

I show you how to stretch, show you how to pop

Got a watch from my wrist and a watch from my pockets

Rolling from the base line, bottom to the top

Got bullets on speed dial. Yea, I call shots

Now you can't act like you never heard of me

Cause I'm so 3rd degree, everyday I'm burning leafs

I'm in my castle and I'm never coming down

They always said I have my head in the clouds

Everything I ever said

Everything that I have done

Tryna show her it's my time

Building mansions in my mind

Now that's all so yesterday

I'm just lighting up my fire

Tell the world I'm sick, goodbye

I'm building castles in the sky

I'm building castles in the sky

I used to fantasize about the baddest girl I couldn't get with, never

Couldn't get a number, couldn't even get a digit

Then I saw the light, now my nights are proud explicit

I be lost inside the guns, you would've sworn I went missing

God deals pain

Got the whole hood saying damn by the rain, came a mighty long way

No GPS on start of navigation

We self-made ******, shoutout to my operation

It started in my mind then it started taking **** (ok)

I still cannot believe that these have yet to take the place

I'm in my castle and I'm never coming down

It's no wonder why my head is in the clouds

Everything I ever said

Everything that I have done

Tryna show her it's my time

Building mansions in my mind

Now that's all so yesterday

I'm just lighting up my fire

Tell the world I'm sick, goodbye

I'm building castles in the sky

I'm building castles in the sky

Building castles the size of coliseums

Thirty thousand feet up, I swear you gotta see 'em

Cruising altitude with a foolish attitude

Heading for the moon, maybe Mars, maybe Venus

Building castles the size of coliseums

Thirty thousand feet up, I swear you gotta see 'em

Cruising altitude with a foolish attitude

Heading for the moon, maybe Mars, maybe Venus

Everything I ever said

Everything that I have done

Tryna show her it's my time

Building mansions in my mind

Now that's all so yesterday

I'm just lighting up my fire

Tell the world I'm sick, goodbye

I'm building castles in the sky

I'm building castles in the sky

Building castles the size of coliseums

Thirty thousand feet up, I swear you gotta see 'em

Cruising altitude with a foolish attitude

Heading for the moon, maybe Mars, maybe Venus
