letra de 17 candles - grimm dreamurr

17 candles to blow out this year
but i cannot ’cause i know the bank accounts in tears
gotta save the money stack the bread and share it with my peers
when my blossom blooms imma buy mum a chandelier

it felt like i’d been 16 for 16 years
that’s probably why i cried 256 tears
for all the people that i’ve wronged, the ones that end up in my songs
but to them i had a brave face to prove that i was strong

back when i was 15 didn’t know no better
i was stupid, i was reckless, didn’t wear my sweater
but i was sweating every singlе time i went up in the room
had my mind racing, had mе thinking, what i do?
14 was pivotal, song about it soon
but that was the year my mental health was doomed
i didn’t want a life bro i wasn’t in the mood
but then a devil in disguise made me hit resume

13 was hazy or is my mind just lazy
or maybe instigating getting mugged is just crazy
that’s right but don’t worry right now i’m all good
just tryna represent how your neighbours know the hood

back in 12 days and i ain’t talking bout christmas
to be honest i could think of 12 ways he missed it
i really wanna tell him how bad i truly missed him
but if i ever had a chance you can be sure i kissed it

goodbye to 11
and if i die, i’m going heaven
i ain’t even gotta try, you see the levels
but you know i’m gonna fly against the wind like a rebel

got 10 years left till i’m almost 30
10 years ago me and life were so flirty
live it to the fullest even when it gets dirty
funny how the ones i love tend to hurt me

back when i was 9 i started my fourth year
but that ship sailed time ago, to the north pier
my first institution was cold and they wouldn’t let me expand
they wouldn’t let me grow, do the best that i can
when i was 8 i had my existential crisis
my mind was way ahead and bro i’m talking lightyears
thought i could take it to infinity and beyond
but nowadays it feels like the buzz is just gone

7 was the year of gymnastics for me
did cartwheels and handsprings and aerials with glee
but now it’s all different cos my body’s getting old
my bones are gonna freeze cos my muscles getting cold

back when i was 6 i didn’t know what to believe
i played with all the sticks that used to fall down from the trees
i never was a climber though that job was down to them
i loved to be outside in the square with all my friends

round when i was 5, what a time to be alive
i had a puppy called lexi
i don’t like to talk about her cos it just stress me
coming home from school she give me hugs and just bless me
wanna walk? yes please
wanna talk? h-ll no

round when i was 4 i had the fortitude to dodge all the walls and hit the mirrors
guess that’s 28 years bad luck, tell me what’s different
if i’m 17 now, i’ve got 11 left
will it be good luck season or will i just be bereft
will they charge me for a reason or will i just be arrested
you’re coming for the king? that’s treason no question
i’ve burned this candle too long, light the next one
[interlude]

back when i was 3 i just wanted to be free
simple rhymes for simple times
don’t need no dictionary i just played pictionary
don’t need no lexicon a hexagon was my vocabulary
six words was all i needed, just concise and not conceited
i could write it i could read it, let me say so you can hear it
“i love mum, i love dad” without them there’s no rap
i’m not taking that’s back and that’s that

when i was 2 my sis was 12
and i ain’t even gonna delve into how much i love her
i got bars up on the shelf but you gon’ need a ladder
cos i ain’t putting no one above her

cos she the one, when i was 1
in her arms was where she held me
now the thought of her everyday it just propels me
this is my 17th candle what can you tell me

0, now i’m at 0
bro i got 0 time, i had 0 lines
i had nothing on my mind, didn’t even have a mind
just a light that could shine, a light that was mine
a light that followed me even in my dreams
i got a life that can tear can all your fabric at the seams
and i promise you this light and life ain’t as it seems
my light is evergreen
now i’m 17
