California Dreams and Southern Words
He’s a North Carolina man, with the weight of the South,
Met a girl from the coast, always runnin' her mouth.
With her golden sun rays, she took him away,
But the words that she spoke, man, they made him stray.
Girl, you’re livin’ in a dream, but I’m stuck in the grind,
Every word you throw my way, feels like you’re blind.
Shut it down, baby, just hear what I say,
’Cause love ain’t a game, and I’m tired of the play.
He said, “You talk too much, can’t you just stay still?
Every time you interrupt, it’s like a bitter pill.
Bring me your love, don’t complicate the night,
I’m sick of the drama, just want it to feel right.”
Girl, you’re livin’ in a dream, but I’m stuck in the grind,
Every word you throw my way, feels like you’re blind.
Shut it down, baby, just hear what I say,
’Cause love ain’t a game, and I’m tired of the play.
Took her to the sunset, under the golden skies,
But all the pretty visions turned into goodbyes.
You’re chasin’ your fantasies, while I’m grounded on earth,
Maybe it’s time to face what we’re really worth.
So take your California dream, I’ll stay down in the South,
Words can cut like knives, but I’m done with your mouth.
If you misbehave, girl, you’ll reap what you sow,
These negative thoughts, they just steal my glow.
Girl, you’re livin’ in a dream, but I’m stuck in the grind,
Every word you throw my way, feels like you’re blind.
Shut it down, baby, just hear what I say,
’Cause love ain’t a game, and I’m tired of the play.
So here’s to the silence, let’s find some peace,
In this tangled mess, let the chaos cease.
You wanted the dream, but I’m stuck on the ground,
In this North Carolina heart, no peace can be found.
