Melanie Martinez - Piggyback lyrics

[Verse 1] I was three years old All I wanted was the music and My parents were doing everything they could To move away from our place working over time always While I sat up in my grandma's project building coloring, oh Moved to a small town and Started to, started to grow Poetry written, I’m singing and dancing, oh Photographs, painting, cartoons That's all I know That's all I know, oh I have one best friend to this very f*cking day Since we were five years old and I f*cking moved away I wish I never did cause she’s the only one who sees me For who I really am instead of how many I reach, oh [Pre-Chorus] Trusted too many fake people while I was still young Gave them the benefit of the doubt, I was so wrong I cut them off and they came for blood cause they know They ain't getting no more [Chorus] I’m so done with playing piggy back, oh Swear to god I wished y’all all the best, oh You’re lying your way to try to gain a piece of me When you could never come close cause I know my destiny I worked hard for my sh*t Put my love in this sh*t Now you’re trying to k** my name for some fame What is this? Tried to help you do your sh*t Encouraged you to work on it Was a good friend and you used that to your advantage [Verse 2] Now I’m 22 and I've had a crazy year of Isolation from all the plastic people here I cannot wait for the day I can finally move away Back to New York City where the realest people really stay, oh Oh, spent this whole time writing away my heart and my soul The people I surround myself with have hearts filled with gold Love and empathy are things that we hold so close Trying to learn and evolve [Chorus] I’m so done with playing piggy back, oh Swear to god I wished y’all all the best, oh You’re lying your way to try to gain a piece of me When you could never come close cause I know my destiny I worked hard for my sh*t Put my love in this sh*t Now you’re trying to k** my name for some fame What is this? Tried to help you do your sh*t Encouraged you to work on it Was a good friend and you used that to your advantage [Outro] I’m so done with playing piggy back, oh Swear to god I wished y'all all the best, oh You're lying your way to try to gain a piece of me When you could never come close cause I know my destiny
