Star Cast - Ratchet Life Lyrics






Whatever happened to you
And all of the things that you knew
Before you were twerking and dropping it low in the club
Doing too much
And now that you're rollin' with Molly
You've become the life of the party
Such a rebel in a cold, cold world

The ratchet life
You want the ratchet life
You hide behind your disguise
But I know the truth
You ain't bout that ratchet life
Won't last til the morning light
You're still putting up a fight
What do you have to prove
I just miss the old you

Head to toe dressed in all black
Picture perfect, she did that
You're trying so hard to forget who you are that
You're blinding yourself but oh well
Put your dark shades on and just keep having fun
Baby like you do
Who else lied to you?
Think you don't need nobody but you're really scared of it all

The ratchet life
You want the ratchet life
You hide behind your disguise
But I know the truth
You ain't bout that ratchet life
Won't last til the morning light
You're still putting up a fight
What do you have to prove
I just miss the old you

One selfie
Two swisher sweets and three bottles of Jack
Four bundles of imported hair
Five little thots
Chasing the fame
Tell me how long do you think it will last

The ratchet life
You want this ratchet life
Just throw away your disguise
Cause I know your truth
You're so much more than this ratchet life
Won't last til the morning light
You're still putting up a fight
What do you have to prove
I just miss the old you

The incredible you
The glorious you, unforgettable you
Irresistible you

  1. G.... W....

    I love these girls so much. Every time I’m down, I listen to them!

  2. j.... _....

    I just break down in tears when it's starts over and over I just miss the old me

  3. A.... M....

    Sorry, but I like June’s Diary versión so much more, specially Gaby’s version 🙌🏼

  4. j.... ....

    Anyone else relistening to all the songs after finding out about not having a season 4

  5. K.... M....

    Still my favorite song

  6. O.... M....

    this song is so soothing

  7. M.... B....

    This song is so powerful. I know people close to me that do this but wanted some much more. Its like they give up on all those dreams and goals and I see them going out all the time, posting crazy things, even stripping and more. I still think of when were were little and dreamed of owning our own businesses, singing, getting married and moving away. I did and got into banking but they stayed and seem stuck. it hurts. No offense to the women who do, I just know this is not what they wanted for themselves.

  8. T.... P....

    I love you 😘💯♥️❤️♥️😘♥️❤️♥️❤️❤️💯❤️😘❤️♥️♥️❤️♥️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️😘❤️♥️❤️❤️❤️♥️❤️😘❤️😘😘

  9. B.... A....

    Ryan has a beautiful voice but I feel like this takes away from the Doo-Wop version that Gabby gave. Hopefully it'll be on Junes Diary's album.

  41. t.... d....

    Love this song go Ryan

  42. J.... C....

    This My Song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    J.... C....

    Jayllie Climaco This song was written by my daughter Crystal Carr who's also singing background vocals to help ryan in vocals, Ryan sung beautifully, My daughter made a deal with STAR only, they did a wonderful job, this song is about my daughter sharing a few of her choices to be herself as she transitions into womanhood, we raised her to write, sing and share to others because this is her gift. Many assume that group wrote it or are original owners because they see them on YouTube singing it, (that's called leaking) they had nothing to do with this song and better not say they did, everything does not begin on YouTube. I cannot respect that because they used my daughters music for exposure trying to get "famous" allowing others to assume is as bad as lying, my daughter also wrote "SO SICK" Deon is her partner and my daughter added him so he could get a percentage trev Le is the producer, she's in other songs and vocals you'd be surprised and has written other songs and many more to come mom @mizty_2one5 IG 😊

  61. h.... t....

    Currently my favorite song from Star, along with Little Bird. I feel like especially in times today, a lot of people can relate to Alex (me lol). She clearly states in this song that the way she acts isn’t the real her. She’s just putting up and image cuz it looks good. This song really gets me in the feels.

  62. D.... E....

    Ryan vocals are fire ];

  63. S.... M....

    Anyone got the lyrics? My school talent show is coming up & I wanna do this song, would be much easier to catch the melody if i knew the words.

  64. R.... S....

    This is so beautiful... P.S. they did not steal from June's diary. They bought the rights to perform it.

    Tell me how long do you think it will last

    The ratchet life
    You want this ratchet life

    her voice is so beautiful I'm crying right now.

  84. D.... R....

    It's sad June's Diary song was taken from them, but at least Ryan was the one to sing it. She's the only one who would have done it justice.

    Just gotta hope we get an album from JD soon. 😔😔

  85. M.... ....

    Stfu with the June’s diary comment... Regardless the song was relevant to the storyline, you don’t just steal copyrighted shit!! This girl sang tf out of it, maybe JD did too but who cares 🤷🏾‍♀️

  86. S.... G....

    This is the first time I'm hearing this song on star & I fall in love with it & I love me some Ryan Destiny she's so beautiful & talented & kill this song so y'all need to stop with all of the negative comments & enjoy this version of the song too 😍😍😍😍💜❤💜❤
