Circus lyrics

by

Nas


[Chorus]
Come join our circus where we all wear masks
Lying while our fans are expected to last
Could it be that the trick is on us?
Masquerading like we are the ones
Can you blame us?
It started as fun
Didn't know that the game must be won
Sorry

[Verse 1]
Never did I lie; never did I mean to trick y'all
But they told me this how they get rich, y'all
Make a hit song, same lame lyrics, same bass, same kickdrum
Buy the record, you became a vic-vic-victim
b*tch can't front, get what I want, neck, hands and my wrist numb
Sick none, diamonds on my wristband
Who I'm talking to? You, you and my biggest fan
Thinking that ya girl got it all, and I got the best man
Best hair, best legs, need a break
You in my face, asking K, what I'm puttin' out next year
Is it gonna be real freaky? Critics wanna come critique me
Are you gonna be more grunge, rock and roll like back when you dropped before?
But get back, before I get ill
Black love, black mask, listen to some real black love
That's all I have, that's all I have
[Chorus]
Come join our circus where we all wear masks
Lying while our fans are expected to last
Could it be that the trick is on us?
Masquerading like we are the ones
Can you blame us?
It started as fun
Didn't know that the game must be won
Sorry

[Verse 2]
Musicians, magicians, tightropes, strobe lights, Lion tamers, entertainers, Sold Out Nights
Dressing rooms, costumes, who's doing who? Gossip rumors
Groupies just too much, everybody's like, "Let's do lunch"
That's why it doesn't matter
That's why I'm not a rapper
Still spit a few bars, might never hear this song
Label might say "Hell naw, get a new female star
She don't have to sing, she don't have to bring anything
Get her some new earrings, fly her off to Beijing
Book her shows in Wyoming, David Letterman and Conan"
Your advance just alone and doesn't it all sound grand?
Number one on SoundScan, just keep the clubs bouncin'
Join us

[Chorus]
Come join our circus where we all wear masks
Lying while our fans are expected to last
Could it be that the trick is on us?
Masquerading like we are the ones
Can you blame us?
It started as fun
Didn't know that the game must be won
Sorry
[Bridge]
How can I shake this circus clown?
What does the ringmaster need from his crowd?
Should I dive through the circle of fire?
No, I'm just gonna be me

[Chorus]
Come join our circus where we all wear masks
Lying while our fans are expected to last
Could it be that the trick is on us?
Masquerading like we are the ones
Can you blame us?
It started as fun
Didn't know that the game must be won
Sorry

[Outro]
Can you blame us?
It started as fun
Didn't know that the game must be won
Sorry
Can you blame us?
It started as fun
Didn't know that the game must be won
Sorry
Can you blame us?
It started as fun
Didn't know that the game must be won
Sorry
