Boys Will Be Boys - CASisDEAD

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Standing there starkers, making it hard to leave

Run it’s course, she can’t believe

Feelings harboured deep

Woman crush for half the scene

Things aren’t what they seem

Shattered heart still on her sleeve

Scarred from our deceit

Discarded card receipts

Black tank, Khaki seats

Tints dark, can hardly see

Parties, hardly sleeps

She’s suffering from fatigue

In love like every week

Every rap nigga she meets — limousines and haute cuisine

Obsessed with being seen, phone the paps, leaving tips

I swear she’d attend the opening of a packet of crisps

I rarely roll to shit

I didn’t like to run the risk of running into some auto-tune twit that’s seen

her tits

I wish I never knew all this

See ignorance is bliss

There’s too many famous names, it’s a long guest list

The rumours had me pissed, I heard that Pro pressed it

She name checked me in the press, that shit I don’t mess with

Nah

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Boys will be

Boys will be boys

Yeah, uh

Been six weeks since I stopped seeing her exclusively

No excuses, our connection just ain’t what it used to be

She used to make herself late for shoots, taking nudes for me

She was hiding the truth

I never knew — it was news to me

She told me that her uncle troubled her when she was six

And ever since then she’s had this strange relationship with sex

Promiscuous and insecure and this is why she drinks

So that she can project confidence, or so she thinks

Show business isn’t the best place to be naive

Men in power pray on stardom seeking starlets like meat

I found her OD’d

Barley, Fentanyl and sweets

Had to drop her to a private hospital on Harley Street

Now we hardly speak

It was a cry for help

I didn’t answer, I just thought she needed to slow it down a piece

And now, when I see that fake smile on the TV

I can’t help but think it’s us that made her like this

It’s deep
