Role Models Lyrics

[Intro]
[?]

[Verse 1]
They question my gangster, they say that it's fake
Rockin' Dickies and band tees, I'll play you in skate
Surrounded by villains I cannot escape
I can't stand these niggas, the things that they say

[Pre-Chorus]
Then I found light in the darkness
Listenin' to James, Scott and Ye
Locked in my room, you can't stop it
One more song, I might fly away
Every word feels like a drug

[Chorus]
Role models
Take me high, take me high, oh, oh
False idols
Give it up, give it up, oh, oh
Never the right time
Life doesn't feel right
Role models
Take me high, take me high, oh, oh (Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
[Verse 2]
I was seventeen
On my nigga shit, stuck in their fantasies
Ain't no love for me (Ain't no love for me)
Ramen noodles or starve? Just go to sleep (Oh, ooh-woah, woah-woah, woah-woah)
Swimmin' inside of the dark
Ain't got nobody to call (Yeah)

[Pre-Chorus]
Then I found light in the darkness
Listenin' to James, Scott and Ye
Locked in my room, you can't stop it
One more song, I might fly away
Every word feels like a drug

[Chorus]
Role models (Oh-oh)
Take me high, take me high, oh, oh (Oh-oh)
False idols (Oh-oh, oh)
Give it up, give it up, oh, oh (Oh-oh)
Never the right time
Life doesn't feel right
Role models
Take me high, take me high, oh, oh (Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Outro]
There's a storm coming
That's okay, it can't be worse than what she's done to me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
