lyrics

*Audience is quiet and curtains open to instrumental*
[Hook: Sampha]
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
There's no need for us to rush it through
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
This is more than just a new lust for you
[Verse 1: Bause]
Hoodie on with some sweatpants
Got too me heat my sweat glands
Got stress man I can't stress man
Too busy wanting to be the best man
Engaging shit for some less scam
My momma feel this shit I say yes mam
buy a crib that's the next plan
For now I gotta make my blessed brand
Or my brand blessed have my voice bless
Success only heard when your family rest
So I work hard and work harder
I take attributes from my late father
ain't in a grave but he been away
Worked so damn hard he had to get away
But I made a way make his absences stay
And create ambition from far away
last conversation we ever had
Was about this girl that's had me mad
Cause she had my heart but she had me sad
Stomped that shit but I never flagged
My white flag for that right stand
Surrender my soul for some nights man
And I love her hard when she kiss me soft
I pray every night that she miss me oft
But I'm getting off from this grey hound
Been stuck too long on this grey ground
These jungle Gyms my playground
Got nothing nothing left to do but say now
Yeah Right now I gotta change
Before my mind start getting strange
I've felt the pain I've felt the rain
Been soaked so long my skin been stained
[Hook: Sampha]
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
There's no need for us to rush it through
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
This is more than just a new lust for you
[Verse 2: Bause]
And I feel deranged or I'm feeling mange
Got a target on my head while I walk the range
But I'm walking tall chin up and all
Closed eyes reach the finish before I fall
Cause before it all got no one there
Got roaches in my room and nobody care
This one girl was always fair
But she gotta find herself so I'm running scared
If she find someone, she losing me
can't find myself to go and breathe You not by me
Will you stand by me or watch me go
Been you from the start can't let you fold
My deck you heart can't let you go
Spitting love on the mic thought I let you know
I want you as my wife get old and grow
Been too long that you've been here
Trust issues brung true fear
But trust the picture it's too dear
it's true dear it’s you dear
Can't get too far unless you near
Since grade 8 you been my one mate
You can it love or you can call it fate
My time on you watch and I'm never late
Your lips on my lips always feeling great
Don't let me dance alone if I come in late
And I've complained, I've fucked up
But you the only that's bucked up
For this sun up till the suns down
Hold you every night is a must now
Stole my heart, gets cuffs now
This shit much more than just lust now
[Hook]

[Outro: Sampha]
Don't give up, on your hopes
And you tell me somethin's gone wrong
Wholehearted, wholehearted, you care, you care
Cause I'm such a dreamer, a believer in a sense
Well if it's all a dream
Then I'm on fire, feels like, I'm on fire
Tell me when I'm lyin', tell me when I'm tryin'
