Mac Miller - Circles Album Lyrics

Circles

Well, this is what it look like right before you fall
Stumblin' around, you've been guessing your direction
Next step, you can't see at all
And I don't have a name, I don't have a name, no
Who am I to blame? Who am I to blame though?
And I cannot be changed, I cannot be changed, no
Trust me, I've tried
I just end up right at the start of the line
Drawin' circles
Mmm
Well, I drink my whiskey, and you sip your wine
We're doing well, sittin', watchin' the world fallin' down, its decline
And I can keep you safe, I can keep you safe, mmm
Do not be afraid, do not be afraid
You're feeling sorry, I'm feeling fine
Don't you put any more stress on yourself, it's one day at a time
It's gettin' pretty late, gettin' pretty late
Damn, and I find
It goes around like the hands that keep countin' the time
Drawin' circles

Complicated

Outside it's cloudy but I like that better (better, better)
Behind the wheel, but still ain't on my way
Some people say they want to live forever
That's way too long, I'll just get through today

Without any complications
Does it always gotta, does it always gotta
Gotta be so complicated?
Well, I'm way too young to be gettin' old

Mm, and all I wanna do is look, but I can't see, baby
Who you talkin' to while you talkin' to me, baby?
Let me, let me know if I can see you later
We could make it easy

Inside my head is gettin' pretty cluttered (cluttered, cluttered)
I tried but can't clean up this mess I made
'Fore I start to think about the future
First, can I please get through a day?

Without any complications
Does it always gotta, does it always gotta
Gotta be so complicated?
Well, I'm way too young to be gettin' old

Some people say they want to live forever

Without any complications
Does it always gotta, does it always gotta
Gotta be so complicated?
Well, I'm way too young to be gettin' old

Blue World

(It's a blue world)
(Without you)
(It's a blue world)
(Alone)

Yeah
Well, it's a mad world, it made me crazy
Might just turn around, do 180
I ain't politicking, I ain't kissing no babies
The devil on my doorstep bein' so shady
Mm, don't trip, we don't gotta let him in
Don't trip
Hey, yeah
I let it go but I never go with it
Uh, yeah, okay

Cool as Fall weather
F*ck the bullshit, I'm here to make it all better
With a little music for you
I don't do enough for you
Without you it's the color blue, ooh
Don't trip, I was in the city, they was talking that shit
Had the homies with me, all of a sudden they split
We ain't even worried, we just laughing, that's rich
You know how it goes, it ain't broke, don't fix

Hey, one of these days we'll all get by
Don't be afraid, don't fall

Think I lost my mind
Reality's so hard to find
When the devil tryna call your line
But shit, I always shine
Even when the light dim
No, I ain't God but I'm feeling just like him
Ooh, don't trip
See I was in the whip riding, me and my bitch
We was listening to us, no one else, that's it
That's a flex, just a bit, let me talk my shit
Say my hand got bit

Yeah
Well, it's a mad world, it made me crazy
Might just turn around, do 180
I ain't politicking, I ain't kissing no babies
The devil on my doorstep bein' so shady
Mm, don't trip, we don't gotta let him in
Don't trip
Hey, yeah
I let it go but I never go with it
Uh

Don't trip
Don't trip
Don't trip

Well, if you could see me now
Love me then hold me down
My mind, it goes, it goes
It goes, it goes, it goes

Well, it's a mad world, it made me crazy
Might just turn around, do 180
I ain't politicking, I ain't kissing no babies
The devil on my doorstep bein' so shady
Mm, don't trip, we don't gotta let him in
Don't trip
Hey, yeah
I let it go but I never go with it
Uh

Hey, one of these days we'll all get by
Don't be afraid, don't fall in line

Good News

I spent the whole day in my head
Do a little spring cleaning, I'm always too busy dreaming
Well, maybe I should wake up instead
A lot of things I regret, but I just say I forget
Why can't it just be easy?
Why does everybody need me to stay?
Oh, I hate the feeling
When you're high but you're underneath the ceiling
Got the cards in my hand I hate dealing
Yeah
Get everything I need, then I'm gone
But it ain't stealing
Can I get a break?
I wish that I could just get out my goddamn way
What is there to say?
There ain't a better time than today

Maybe I'll lay down for a little, yeah
'Stead of always trying to figure everything out
And all I do is say, "Sorry"
Half the time, I don't even know what I'm sayin' it about

Good news, good news, good news
That's all they wanna hear
No, they don't like it when I'm down
But when I'm flying, oh, it make 'em so uncomfortable
So different, what's the difference?

When it ain't that bad
It could always be worse
I'm running out of gas, hardly anything left
Hope I make it home from work
Well, so tired of being so tired
Why I gotta build something beautiful just to go set it on fire?
I'm no liar, but sometimes the truth don't sound like the truth
Maybe 'cause it ain't, I just love the way it sound when I say it
Yeah, so what I do?
If you know me, it ain't anything new
Wake up to the moon, haven't seen the sun in a while
But I heard that the skies still blue, yeah
Heard they don't talk about me too much no more
And that's a problem with a closed door

Good news, good news, good news
That's all they wanna hear
No, they don't like it when I'm down
But when I'm flying, oh, it make 'em so uncomfortable
So different, what's the difference?

There's a whole lot more for me waiting on the other side
I'm always wondering, if it feel like summer
I know maybe I'm too late, I could make it there some other time
Then I'll finally discover
That there's a whole lot more for me waiting
That there's a whole lot more for me waiting
I know maybe I'm too late, I could make it there some other time
Then I'll finally discover
That it ain't that bad
Ain't so bad
Well, it ain't that bad
At least it don't gotta be no more
No more, no more, no more, no more
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hey
Mm, hey, mm

I Can See

I'm so close, I can taste it
The man on the moon keep playing
Practical jokes, planet of mirrors and smoke
That I fade away in
You be complaining
And I can't explain it, I guess
Nothing compare to the feeling of feeling amazing
Now I'm switching location
'Cause Heaven too far when you live a basement
I'm looking for balance, I'm in an oasis

Well, I need somebody to save me, mm
Before I drive myself crazy
And all I know
If is live is but a dream then so are we
Show me something, show me something, show me something
And all I know
If is live is but a dream then so are we
Show me something, show me something, something I can see

Yeah, don't tell me to stop
Let me keep goin' until I cannot
Life is a fantasy until you wake up in shock
Hitting the ground, I'm hitting the ground, I fell from the top
You never expect to drop, so hold on
But that's just the way it goes
Your God don't wait for no one
And when that's all you know
It keep you on your toes
You got so far to go
But look at where you came from

And all I know
If is live is but a dream then so are we
Show me something, show me something, show me something
And all I know
If is live is but a dream then so are we
Show me something, show me something, something I can see

Everybody

Everybody's gotta live
And everybody's gonna die
Everybody just wanna have a good, good time
I think you know the reason why

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Everybody's gotta live
And everybody's gonna die
Everybody gotta live
I think you know the reason why

Yeah, sometimes the going gets so good
Yeah, but then again, it get pretty rough
Yeah, when I have you in my arms, baby
You know I just can't, I just can't get enough

Everybody's gotta live
And everybody's gonna die
Everybody gonna try to have a good, good time
I think you know the reason why

Saw a blind man standing on the corner, baby
And he couldn't hardly tie his shoes
Yeah, harmonica, guitar strapped around his neck
But he sure could, he sure could play the blues

Everybody's gotta live
And everybody's gonna die
Everybody gonna try to have a good, good time
I think you know the reason why

Yeah
Feel like I've seen a million sunsets, yeah
If you're with me I'll never go away
Yeah, that's when I stopped and I took a look at my baby
She said, "If you're with me, I won't go away"

Because everybody's gotta live
And everybody's gonna die
Everybody gonna try to have a good, good time
I think you know the reason why

Woods

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, things like this ain't built to last
I might just fade like those before me
When will you forget my past?
Got questions, ask, you know the stories

Yeah, and you need to let me know
When you're leaving where you go
Can I come?
Do you believe me, are you close?
Yeah, even if you don't
That'll get you sprung

Do I, do I, do I love?
Can I, can I, can I get enough?

Yeah, don't run away, love
Hey love, heartbreak will have you bankrupt
Too many days in a daze, better wake up
I put your face in a place where the space was
Nobody make you feel like you but (do I?)
And you don't know what you should do
You just looking for someone to make you move, ooh tell me (do I?)

I make this planet feel like home
Miss us, first time the door is closing
So far beyond all our control
You say this all so close to broken, yeah

It's so much better when you wait
Forever and a day, that's all I got
Put it together then it break
All the energy it takes, it never stop

Do I, do I, do I love?
Can I, can I, can I get enough?

Yeah, I never slip, I never fall
I tried to tell you 'bout a better life
And get involved, big or small
It's been my fault
I keep it safe, it's in the vault
Blindfold her, keep it going 'til we hit a wall
Yeah, I'm never going through the motions
I'm just tryna lay your body down slowly
We can only go up
We can only go up

Do I, do I, do I love?
Can I, can I, can I get enough?

Hand Me Downs

I'm thinkin' maybe I should thank you
Oh baby, I should buy you another round
'Cause you care and I'm swear that I'm here but I'm there
It's gettin' harder to hunt me down
Get away to a place with a lake, such a great view
Leave the bank, couple hundred thou'
I made it but hey, once I build it I break it
That might just break me down

And all l ever needed was somebody
With some reason who can keep me sane
Ever since I can remember
I been keeping it together but I'm feeling strange

Get away when it ain't really safe
And it don't seem right
But what's new? You get used to the bullshit
And screws, they go missing
It's likely they might be, but

You remind me
Shit, I need to stay in line
You damn-well are a great design
You despite bein' an only child
Say you need more of a family 'round
Let's turn these jeans into hand me downs
Down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down
Down, down, down

Yeah, well I'm just being honest, my conscience ain't doing bad
Because I try to minus the problems that I attract
And half the, time the wheels that's in the back of my mind
Just keep on turning 'til the tires flat and burn until the fire crack
I do not lie, though facts may seem a little far-fetched
That's only 'cause I may be make-believe and full of darkness
When I'm stuck between a rock and hard place
Walk and drop in change inside your empty guitar case
That's charity, um
I move carelessly, that's why I'm always trippin'
I guess it's like electrolytes, you help me go the distance
Not too efficient, but the way it's always been
Until the day we have to meet again

Get away when it ain't really safe
And it don't seem right
But what's new? You get used to the bullshit
And screws, they go missing
It's likely they might be, but

You remind me
Shit, I need to stay in line
You damn-well are a great design
You despite bein' an only child
Say you need more of a family 'round
Let's turn these jeans into hand me downs
Down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down
Down, down, down

That's on Me

That's on me, that's on me, I know
That's on me, that's on me, it's all my fault
That's on me, that's on me, I know
That's on me, that's on me, I know

Time moving slowly, I'm bouncing my head off the wall
I know nobody that knows where we're going at all
Don't, don't, don't, don't let me down
And I'll pick you up, I'll help you get around

That's on me, that's on me, I know
That's on me, that's on me, it's all my fault
That's on me, that's on me, I know
That's on me, that's on me, I know

I'll let it go
I'll cut the strings
Today, I'm fine

I don't where I've been lately, but I've been alright
I said, "Good morning" this morning and I'll say, "Goodnight"
Don't, don't, don't, don't wait around
We'll take the stairs that gets us into there
It's unfair when I'm bein' too proud, but

That's on me, that's on me, I know
That's on me, that's on me, it's all my fault
That's on me, that's on me, I know
That's on me, that's on me, I know

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, why don't you wake up from your bad dreams
When's the last time you took a little time for yourself?
There's no reason to be so down
Rather fly around like there's no ground
And I, I bet you with you had these
'Cause carryin' this weight'll break your glass knees, yeah
Don't need no chauffeur, f*ck the backseat
No, I stay behind the wheel and never half speed

Get the f*ck out of my car, this ain't a taxi
They love to see me lonely, hate to see me happy
Call me what you want, she call me daddy
Got a knack for getting nasty everyday, we keep a tally, yeah
Oh, it's true, I want it badly
Hit the zoom, I be moving like a athlete
(Now concentrate) no reason to be that upset
I'm busy tripping 'bout some shit that still ain't even happen yet
I keep it honest as honesty gets
Don't know why I'm always talking if I'm not making sense
I spent my life living with a lot of regrets
You throw me off my high horse, I'll probably fall to my death

(Bad behavior) it's obvious you not on your best
I might just pull your card if it's on top of the deck
Gimme, gimme what I need and then I'm onto the next
That's what we calling cause and effect

Yeah, why don't you wake up from your bad dreams
When's the last time you took a little time for yourself?
There's no reason to be so down
Rather fly around like there's no ground
And I, I bet you with you had these
'Cause carrying this wait'll break your glass knees, yeah
Don't need no chauffeur, f*ck the backseat
No, I stay behind the wheel and never half speed

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Surf

Yeah, yeah, surf

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey

Said where are you going? Can I come too?
The whole world is open, a playground for me and you
And we could be fine, shit, who the hell knows?
It's your eyes and your ears and your mouth and your nose
Head and your shoulders, your knees and your toes

I dream of this moment, will it come true?
The whole world, they know it, they just waiting for me and you
And she, just like I, got her head in the clouds
Don't need to be lower, before it's all over, I promise we'll figure it out

I ain't comin' down, why would I need to?
So much of this world is above us, baby
They might tell you that I went crazy
I'm just tryna read you
Ooh
Ooh, ooh

I know we try
And the days, they go by
Until we get old
There's water in the flowers, let's grow
People, they lie
But hey, so do I
Until it gets old
There's water in the flowers, let's grow

Let it go, let it be
We're all we need today
Let it go, let it be
Mm, mm, mm, mm

Yeah, well, sometimes I get lonely, not when I'm alone
But it's more when I'm standin' in crowds that I'm feelin' the most on my own
And I know that somebody knows me, I know somewhere there's home
I'm starting to see that all I have to do is get up and go

Going, going, going, before I'm gone
I gotta get going, going, going, before I'm gone

Hey, and I know we try
Days, they go by
Until we get old
There's water in the flowers, let's grow
People they lie
But hey, so do I
Until it gets old
There's water in the flowers, let's grow

Once a Day

Once a day, I rush
Once a day, I fall asleep with you
Once a day, I try, but I can't find a single word

I wonder what they know
I wonder if they ever even cared at all
I wonder, do they see their own reflection in the rain
And look away?

Everybody keep rushing
Why aren't we taking our time?
Every now and again, baby, I get high

Don't ask me what I think
It never really mattered what I had to say
I just keep waiting for another open door
To come up soon

Don't keep it all in your head
The only place that you know nobody ever can see
You're runnin' low on regret, no tears that's keeping you wet
I think you getting it now

But everybody keep rushing
Why aren't we taking our time?
Every now and again, baby, I get high
And everybody means something
When they're stuck on your mind
But every now and again, why can't we just be fine?

Once a day, I rush
Once a day, I fall asleep with you
Once a day, I try, but I can't find a single word
