[Verse 1] She read my palm in a backroom glow, Said fame would find me — steal the show. I dreamed of stages, dreamed of lights, Woke up to a thousand likes. They know my face, not my name, I'm a meme, a walking shame. She said fame — but not the price, Now I'm famous for bad advice. [Chorus] Ice cube, ice cube, cold and clear, She gave me a crown, said hold it near. Ice cube, ice cube, almost gone, It melted in my hands, melted in my hands — Ice cube, ice cube, cold and clear, Fame, love, money — a puddle in the sand. Ice cube, ice cube, nothing left, Had it all for a second, then it disappeared. [Verse 2] She said love would find me — got a man who can't spell my name, Got the arms, got the chest, nothing in his brain. Beautiful and bored, sitting in a café, And I'm supposed to call this a flame? He's got the looks, he's got the car, But he don't know who I are. She said love — I got a wall, And I'm supposed to call this all? [Chorus] Ice cube, ice cube, cold and clear, She gave me a crown, said hold it near. Ice cube, ice cube, almost gone, It melted in my hands, melted in my hands — Ice cube, ice cube, cold and clear, Fame, love, money — a puddle in the sand. Ice cube, ice cube, nothing left, Had it all for a second, then it disappeared. [Verse 3] She said money — I got a raise, Enough for one coffee and shoes on sale. Rich in promises, poor in pay, And the fortune teller's laughing all the way. I count my coins on the kitchen floor, Enough for a dress, but not the store. She said gold — I got a dime, And I'm supposed to call this mine? [Chorus] Ice cube, ice cube, cold and clear, She gave me a crown, said hold it near. Ice cube, ice cube, almost gone, It melted in my hands, melted in my hands — Ice cube, ice cube, cold and clear, Fame, love, money — a puddle in the sand. Ice cube, ice cube, nothing left, Had it all for a second, then it disappeared. [Outro] …icecube… …melted in my hands… …she read it wrong…
