Melanie Martinez - Piggyback lyrics

Your rating:
[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 kill 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 kill 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
