Jay2 - Ringmaster Lyrics

Got scratches all over my hands
From tryna claw the bricks of my regret
But now they're going down, down, down
Crash to the ground
Sometimes we are in a circus
We are in a circus
Time is a thief, now days are gone
Imprisoned by things that were all wrong
Seeing life through iron bars
Pry them apart
Breaking the cuffs that bind me
I'll wear my scars so proudly

Falling from the tightrope
Feeling the wind around my face
As I'm floating, floating
Running with the lions, I am free now
Sometimes we're in a circus
We are in a circus
I have admission
Don't need permission
To live my life now

I am the ringmaster
Calling the shots
And I take the reins
Never gonna let myself be led again
I'm done waiting for it
Not gonna hold on to my madness
Soak it up with kerosene and light it up with matches
Taking the whip cause I run the show now

Bound by beliefs and thoughts that were not mine
I was chasing dreams on borrowed time
My worries almost made me drown
Screaming, but there was no sound
I was tied up, now I'm in the spotlight
Shadows applauding me while I'm

Falling from the tightrope
Feeling the wind around my face
As I'm floating, floating
Running with the lions, I am free now
Sometimes we're in a circus
We are in a circus
No more submitting
No clock to punch in
Gonna live my life now

I am the ringmaster
Calling the shots
And I take the reins
Never gonna let myself be led again
I'm done waiting for it
Not gonna hold on to my madness
Soak it up with kerosene and light it up with matches
Taking the whip cause I run the show now

Leaping across mandala's fire
Reaching a state of something higher

I am the ringmaster
Calling the shots
And I take the reins
Never gonna let myself be led again
I'm done waiting for it
Not gonna hold on to my madness
Soak it up with kerosene and light it up with matches
Taking the whip cause I run the show now

I'm done waiting for it
