Dean - Square Dreams Lyrics

I guess i'm tone deaf for the music I play
I only ever pause when you come over and stay
Coastal region, so close to paradise
Gambles of life, I gotta roll the dice
I used to look at life, as a way to survive
I cut some dead-weight, now all i wanna do is thrive
Coldest desires brought to me by my empire
Her heart stays so cold, but her passion is fire
To wise for the advice that middle age men peddle
Bitter at thirty feeling old and brittle cuss they settle
For what they thought was happy, but it was a mirage
Security over passion, no sports car in their garage
Yeah, So it's just me in my Taj Mahal
Chasing money like a work of art
Work horse pulling the royal cart , it's all heart
I bet my passion makes designer look like clearance at Walmart
So what you do, when it all fails
Trials and tribulations made me far from frail
I pick up the pieces, move money like telekinesis
Took chances with money advances that three letters curtail
It's all love no hatred, for me the hustle is sacred
I remember when I felt, like I was stuck in the basement
But I climbed to the top floor, now I'm drinking champagne
RIP to all the dreams that they never got to attain

Square Dreams as the world go round
Square Dreams as the world go round
Square Dreams as the world go round
Square Dreams as the world go round

They say the one, saves you from a world of doubt
But then why not from the start, figure yourself out
See I see men, that honestly just want an easy life
So they settle for a simple job and hunt for a wife
From their view, they work hard and they invest
But she isn't a bank, so she has no interest
For his boring persona, after the baby showers
He sees her distance, so he buys her some flowers
Shes stuck, realizing he just trapped a bitch
Feels like her whole life was a bait and switch
He comes home with lust, he just wants to feel loved
But how she gonna want him when she feels disgust
Everything is a question, he never took the right of way
She thought he was a captain, but that was all a play
As the curtains fall, nobody claps
How she gonna be a queen if the king gets in the way
There is no kingdom, without a king to wear the crown
So the queen feels the shame, for he was foul to the game
Reality sets in, and the distance grows like mold
So cold her blood beats, when she realizes shes been sold
To the highest bidder, who's gold is made of plastic
And now shes stuck with him until the casket
At twenty seven years old, but she feels so old
Goes out with her college friends, to forget it all
Couple of drinks in, runs into a guy with a gray streak in her hair
Who makes her feel some things, she hasn't felt in years
Quick to forget, about all of the regret
When she gets lost in the moment , you know what comes next

Square Dreams as the world go round
Square Dreams as the world go round
Square Dreams as the world go round
Square Dreams as the world go round

Dedicated to all those who still living a square dream, go chase your own
