Alessia Cara - Know-It-All Lyrics






Wild Things

Fedez
Alessia Cara

Find table space to say your social graces
Bow your heads, they're pious here, but you and I, we're pioneers
We make our own rules, our own room, no bias here
Let 'em sell what they are sellin', there are no buyers here

So gather all the rebels now, we'll rabble-rouse and sing aloud
We don't care what they say no way, no way
And we will leave the empty chairs to those who say we can't sit there
We're fine all by ourselves

So aye, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin', we make our breaks, if you don't like our 808s
Then (oh) leave us alone, cause we don't need your policies
We have no apologies for being

Find me where the wild things are
Oh my, we'll be alright, don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are
Oh my, we'll be just fine, don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the

Siamo schiavi che gridano ad un padrone che è sordo (wild things are)
Perché se il conto non torna c'è sempre un tornaconto
E ci trasformano in servi senza renderci conto
Siamo costretti a viaggiare con le catene a bordo
Una generazione fondata sul "Me ne frego"
Tra la falsa applicazione di chi si frega le mani
Migliori prestazioni con i debiti da record
Semplicemente scimmie cresciute tra i primati
Aggiungi somme e sottrazioni e sono somministrazioni
Siamo le contraddizioni delle controindicazioni
Sempre accusati di essere senza motivazioni
Ma perché imputazioni sono solo amputazioni
È vero siamo in milioni ma non ci sono ribelli
Perché è senza ribelli che loro fanno i milioni
Quindi scappiamo da qua e lasciamoli soli
Quelli che se ne vanno sono sempre i migliori, uh

I lose my balance on these eggshells
You tell me to tread
I'd rather be a wild one instead
Don't wanna hang around the in crowd
The cool kids aren't cool to me
They're not cooler than we are

So aye, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin', we make our breaks, if you don't like our 808s
Then leave us alone, cause we don't need your policies
We have no apologies for being

Find me where the wild things are
Oh my, we'll be alright, don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are
Oh my, we'll be just fine, don't mind us, yeah

We will carve our place into time and space
We will find our way, or we'll make a way, say hey, hey
Hey find your grace, don't you hide your face
And let it shine (shine), shine (shine), shine (shine)

So aye, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin', we make our breaks, if you don't like our 808s
Then leave us alone, 'cause we don't need your policies
We have no apologies for being

Find me where the wild things are
Oh my, we'll be alright, don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are
Oh my, we'll be just fine, don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are

Stone

So much on my mind
I think I think too much
Read between these lines
Unspoken weight of words
But time comes to rest when you are by my side, it blurs

And I will follow where this takes me
And my tomorrows long to be unknown
When all is shaken, be my safety
In a world uncertain, say you'll be my stone

Change in every wind
The sands of time don't know our name
Oh, nothing's sure, but surely as we stand
I promise I will stay the same
And I've never seen forever
But I know we'll remain

And I will follow where this takes me
And my tomorrows long to be unknown
When all is shaken, be my safety
In a world uncertain, say you'll be my stone
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Be my stone
In a world uncertain, say you'll be my stone

Oh, steady me, be my source of gravity
While my world's unraveling
Say you'll never change, ooh, oh

And I will follow where this takes me
And my tomorrows long to be unknown
When all is shaken, be my safety
In a world uncertain, say you'll be my stone
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Be my stone
In a world uncertain, say you'll be my stone

Overdose

Oh and I overdose
Boy I want off of this roller coaster
You take me high just to bring me down
Oh, and you bring me down (down)

I'm trying not to take too much
I'm in over my head
Over love, oh I over trust
Give me the chance to pick up the pieces you left me in
Why did I let you in?
Overzealous, I'm over this
Oh I'm over us
Over and over
I let you under my skin and it's over
I promised never again you'd come over
Something takes over me
I can't control this hallucinogen

Oh and I overdose
Boy I want off of this roller coaster
You take me high just to bring me down
Oh, and you bring me down

Oh and I overdose
Boy I want off of this roller coaster
You take me high just to bring me down
Oh, and you bring me down

We fight, we laugh
Detox, rehab
Letting go of what we had
Ohh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Over trying
Over lies
Over crying
Over-traumatized
Over-worked and moreover I'm done
Over and over
I'm falling under your spell, call me over
I'm runnin' back to this hell are we over?
And didn't you say we were through?
Why can't I get over you?

Oh and I overdose
Boy I want off of this roller coaster
You take me high just to bring me down
Oh, and you bring me down

Oh and I overdose
Boy I want off of this roller coaster
You take me high just to bring me down
Oh, and you bring me down

Boy I come crashing (crashing)
Down from the high and wondering (wondering)
Wondering why this ain't over
Let it just be over
Sobering thoughts taking over my mind

Oh and I overdose
Boy I want off of this roller coaster
You take me high just to bring me down
Oh, and you bring me down
Oh and I overdose
Boy I want off of this roller coaster
You take me high just to bring me down
Oh, and you bring me down

Stars

Knock on my door, boy come home
You stay in my head
Lay in my arms, why won't you?
It's been way too long
What you waiting on?
Cause I've been laying here
Learning what the memories won't do
See I need you and baby I need to
Let down my guard and give you my scars
Open up my heart

We could be stars...
We could be stars...
We could be stars...

Rap on my window, come home
It's been a while, so stick around
Why don't you?
'Til the end of time
Say that you'll be mine
An uphill climb fighting what the heart
Really wants to do
See I need you
And sometimes we need to
Shed our facade and be just who we are
All broken and torn, then we could be stars

Oh we could be stars...
We could be stars...
We could be stars...

Piercing lights in the dark
Make the galaxy ours
Kingdom right where we are
Shining bright as a morning
You'll never be lonely
Just promise you'll love me
I'm never too far
And we'll never part
And we could be stars

Oh we could be stars...
We could be stars...
Oh we could be stars...

Just find way to get home
There's a space in my heart
Open arms for you to run to
Baby close your eyes and take the leap
To make believe in fairytales
I'll meet you there
Oh yea, I'll fall too
See I've wanted you here
All along but my fear
Just keeps haunting me won't let me go
So it's hard to say I love you

We could be stars...
Oh we could be stars...
We could be stars...
We could be stars...

Scars To Your Beautiful

She just wants to be beautiful
She goes unnoticed, she knows no limits,
She craves attention, she praises an image,
She prays to be sculpted by the sculptor
Oh she don't see the light that's shining
Deeper than the eyes can find it
Maybe we have made her blind
So she tries to cover up her pain, and cut her woes away
'Cause covergirls don't cry after their face is made

But there's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful

She has dreams to be an envy, so she's starving
You know, "Covergirls eat nothing."
She says, "Beauty is pain and there's beauty in everything."
"What's a little bit of hunger?"
"I could go a little while longer," she fades away
She don't see her perfect, she don't understand she's worth it
Or that beauty goes deeper than the surface
Ah oh, ah ah oh,
So to all the girls that's hurting
Let me be your mirror, help you see a little bit clearer
The light that shines within

There's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful

No better you than the you that you are
(no better you than the you that you are)
No better life than the life we're living
(no better life than the life we're living)
No better time for your shine, you're a star
(no better time for your shine, you're a star)
Oh, you're beautiful, oh, you're beautiful

There's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful

River Of Tears

Still got the flowers that you sent
And the note you wrote that said
That we're meant to be forever
I keep them all as evidence
In a drawer under the mirror
Filled with empty promises
I don't know why
I keep letting you lie to me
Hard as I try
It seems I can't break away
I thought that you would be the hero
Come and save the day
But you're a villain
Your sins unforgiven

I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
The river of tears has washed me clean
Go 'head and wish me well
I'll cry a wishing well
I'll fly before I fail
I'll set sail and drift away
So I won't need you here
Love sinks and hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears

I catch your scent in every wind
And I recall the love we had
I can't pretend that I don't miss you
Every now and then
But the hurt is for the better
Moving on, it's now or never
Lost in the tide, I can't keep my pillows dry
Like there's a sea in my eyes
I realize that sometimes life brings you flowers
Then it builds you coffins
And far too often
We end up falling to our demise

I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
The river of tears has washed me clean
Go 'head and wish me well
I'll cry a wishing well
I'll fly before I fail
I'll set sail and drift away
So I won't need you here
Love sinks and hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears

Cry me a river, build myself a bridge
I'm over this, can't let memories become the death of me
I'm glad to see everything that you are
And I believe that you are everything I needed
But I don't need no more

I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
The river of tears has washed me clean
Go 'head and wish me well
I'll cry a wishing well
I'll fly before I fail
I'll set sail and drift away
So I won't need you here
Love sinks and hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears

My Song

Tune in to find my peace and solitude
These empty rooms spin, and I embrace the flaws of being human
The black and white, and sometimes the greys that stay for days
The in-between times, the meantimes that make this song of life sing
Play, rest, repeat, read exactly what is written on the sheet
"Don't deviate," they say
But I will play what's best for me
I'll press the keys and pull the strings, create a symphony that's mine

And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song
And the verses I write will speak for me
Good girls don't make history
So I may never be what you assume (it's my song)
Don't want your hooks or auto-tune (it's my song)
If I'm off-key then that's alright with me (it's my song)
Oh, and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone (it's my song)
My song will carry on

Let go, I let my voice be heard, then listen for the echo
My own reverb is playing 'cause I'm a movement
There's dissonance, sometimes I make mistakes
Oh, I'm human after all, I'm not your expectations
But play, rest, repeat, that's what they ask of me
Just stick to this melody and stay between the lines
But I'll play what's best for me
I'll ring the bells and crash the cymbals, my harmonious design

And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song
And the verse I write will speak for me
Good girls don't make history
So I may never be what you assume (it's my song)
Don't want your hooks or auto-tune (it's my song)
If I'm off-key then that's alright with me (it's my song)
Oh, and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone (it's my song)
My song will carry on

In my time here, I wanna be revered and remembered
Oh, let them say I came, I conquered
So I won't fear and I can't blend in
You can't replace me and you cannot erase me
'Cause my song will live on beyond time

And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song
And the verses I write will speak for me (it's my song)
Good girls don't make history (it's my song)
So I may never be what you assume (it's my song)
Don't want your hooks or auto-tune
If I'm off-key then that's alright with me
Oh, and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone
My song will carry on
And I'll spend my life (my life) penning my song (my song) my song (my song)
And the verse I write will speak for me
Good girls don't make history
So I may never be what you assume
Don't want your hooks or auto-tune
If I'm off-key then that's alright with me
Oh, and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone
My song will carry on
