[English]

Rainbow roses fancy ice - melting inside your eyes

A dream-like reality site - Feelings drifting like the tide

I left my guard down for a minute - I never play with feelings but

I thought you were committed - The way that I'm addicted is specific

It's your vibe it's your mind - it's the things I can't describe

I've been running backwards - Running backwards like a marathon

You're in every moment - I can't control it

Only the senses that tamed me - Keeps doing as it pleases, No

I know I'm an icon - Watch me with the lights on

But she got a hold on me like a python

I don't wanna lose her - Yeah she was my Future

Shot to the chest I was falling for the shooter - I don't wanna I don't wanna have to let her go

I should move on I know - I know I'm an icon

Without you, all lights off - But she got a hold on me like a python

(Yeah yeah) - I gave you my time when I didn't have much

All of my feelings swept under the rug - I'm touring the world but I'm

missing the one who held it down - Music is how I've been venting now

Broken glass I'm bleeding out - Overseas I'm selling out

Private planes I got taste - I got seven golden rings

My accountant called me up said - the moneys stacked to space

What a snake with them eyes - I won't even try to lie

I wish I could let you go - I wish I could say goodbye

I've been running backwards - Running backwards like a marathon

You're in every moment - I can't control it

Only the senses that tamed me - Keeps doing as it pleases, No

I know I'm an icon - Watch me with the lights on

But she got a hold on me like a python

I don't wanna lose her - Yeah she was my Future

Shot to the chest I was falling for the shooter - I don't wanna I don't wanna have to let her go

I should move on I know - I know I'm an icon

Without you, all lights off - But she got a hold on me like a python
