/// PAPAYA LYRICS
[verse 1]
she say
don’t stay too long
out in the summer
skin turn darker than
the ground down under
but shooting stars falling fast
i wonder
gravity knows,
i can’t stand another

reckless
how she pick and rage
we too helpless
gonna call me names
i’m a brown babe
tell me who’s to blame
she low grade
beatin me to shame

saying paint it
and erase
rinse it
chemical face running
down the drain
lather in pain
crying out suds for the purity gain

damned, petty
broken, empty
a nightmare unkind
leaving me blind for the
last time free me
from my haunted life
looks like she gone mad
huh too bad

[prechorus]
kaya matamis (that's why it's sweet)
pagkagising ko (when I wake up)
dahil wala akong pakialam (because I don't care)
natatangay sa malayo (carried off to far away)
nahuli sa pagitan (caught in between)

[chorus]
‘paya papaya
skin on fire f-fire
‘paya papaya
ima start up a riot

[verse 2]
i say
don’t stay too long
under the shade, just a
little light now we sunmade
feeling high and sacred,
i’m liberated but constellations
got me jaded

complexion decay
like the milky way
my thoughts stay afloat
but i’m feeling weighted
retrograde adrift in vain
so i cut the glass
and i let it wane

like lush fruit close in the sun
i’m ripe picked not overdone
this feeling like nectar,
imma savor
i’m Iit up tonight
glowing like an ember

cancer in a sky
tell me no more flight with nothing to hide,
intuition delight don’t you dare deny
my love to retrace
my splendor embrace
