lirik lagu johnny salami - lease on love
[intro]
man…
you ever wake up next to someone and feel lonely?
not ’cause they did you dirty… but ’cause they ain’t it
like… the dream of love still breathes, but this ain’t that — it’s survival
i gave up the streets, the games, the late nights…
thought i found peace
turns out, i just found a padded cell with a bed
and the warden? she sleepin’ next to me
let me talk
[verse 1]
used to be a dog — nah, i was a doberman
tally marks on backs, no cap, i kept a notebook in
salami out the ziplock, swingin’ like a pеndulum
now i’m watchin’ netflix bored, with this gentlеwoman
used to blow racks on fits, now i budget brands
she said i’m selfish ‘cause i miss who i f~~in’ am~
she throw shade like an awning over sunny lands
but she need me — i’m the crutch to her rubber band
we was fireworks, now it’s just gaslight smoke
she want a ring, i want sp~ce like a nasa quote
she got attitude worse than a pastor’s dope
and i got options, but i ain’t the type to pass the hope
could’ve been married to the game, now i vent alone
d~ck used to start wars, now it ain’t gettin’ known
i need peace, not a piece that just fetch my phone
she say “we soulmates”… nah, just rented homes
[hook]
i’m held hostage by hope, can’t cheat, can’t leave
built a home on quicksand, now i sink, can’t breathe
was a king with the charm, now i limp off the throne
tryna fix what we broke, with a heart made of stone
can’t run, can’t fake it, and i sure can’t beg
still remember when your touch made my third leg beg
but now i’m drownin’ in silence, in a house full of screams
guess love ain’t what it seems when you outgrow the dream
[verse 2]
used to tell jokes, now i just hold my grin
feel like i’m locked in the game — no gold to win
she want me home but i roam ‘cause i loathe her kin
even her voice make me flinch like a poke to skin
she don’t smile, she complain like it’s therapy
i’m prayin’ for a cheat day from this monogamy
yeah, i could cheat — but my soul got integrity
so i sit with this pain like a felony pedigree
i made peace with demons, now i’m dancin’ with debt
she homeless without me, so i’m trapped in her net
i stay strong for the bills, for the check i sweat
but d~mn, i miss nights i ain’t regret who i met
used to be drippin’ sauce, now it’s ragu sad
had thots on my meat like a drive~thru ad
now i’m stuck in this h~ll with her attitude bad
tryna find me again through the value of dad
[hook]
i’m held hostage by hope, can’t cheat, can’t leave
built a home on quicksand, now i sink, can’t breathe
was a king with the charm, now i limp off the throne
tryna fix what we broke, with a heart made of stone
can’t run, can’t fake it, and i sure can’t beg
still remember when your touch made my third leg beg
but now i’m drownin’ in silence, in a house full of screams
guess love ain’t what it seems when you outgrow the dream
[verse 3]
she say “i changed,” but growth ain’t selfish, boo
i ain’t cold — i’m just done bein’ melted through
can’t build with bricks made of h~ll and glue
i need peace, not a bed i yell into
i used to chase l~st like a sprinter’s race
had cheeks on my lap like a dinner plate
but i gave that up, tried to imitate
what love look like — but this ain’t the inner faith
my smile’s a mask with a bruised~up core
i ain’t heartless — just can’t do this bruise no more
got dreams in the attic that i choose to store
but i’m tired of dyin’ slow behind a closed wood door
yeah, i miss me — the old me fly
now i argue ‘bout dishes and the groceries dry
i can’t breathe, i can’t build, i can’t cope or lie
so i’m steppin’ through the pain just to hope and try
[hook]
i’m held hostage by hope, can’t cheat, can’t leave
built a home on quicksand, now i sink, can’t breathe
was a king with the charm, now i limp off the throne
tryna fix what we broke, with a heart made of stone
can’t run, can’t fake it, and i sure can’t beg
still remember when your touch made my third leg beg
but now i’m drownin’ in silence, in a house full of screams
guess love ain’t what it seems when you outgrow the dream
[outro]
they say real love is patient, real love is kind…
but what happens when patience turns to paralysis?
and kindness becomes currency?
she depended on me… i depended on the lie
we built a life on fear of being alone
but sometimes… letting go is love
and sometimes…
you gotta lose who you became
to become the man you were meant to be
