lyrics

I always find myself asking myself
Is the juice worth the squeeze cos I’ll be testing my health
When I push it on a daily, birds chirping save me

Like they’re asking for help
From a brother not even helping himself
I’ll be lookin to the sky like bro these cards that you dealt
Where’d you find em?

And are the people in the garden sitting next to mine
feelin the same pressures that I’ve got on my mind?
Cos I doubt it
Words fell well quick
Times on my side I got this beat from my

Brother from the same kind
Sittin under the light
That hangs above his head while on his keyboard he types
Ideas from his mind projecting ever so fine
To the laptop on his desk the kids got time on his side


While I sit here with the wind blowing passing the time
Thoughts cross my eyes I think I’m getting tongue tied
Cos the drama of the world around stops me in my
Tracks I had a plan but now I ain’t getting by

New routines I think are calling I ain’t getting this back
The missed calls from my old ones left me getting the sack
And if I think I’m getting comfy then it’s matter of fact
I ain’t progressing at the right speed only myself to thank

Questioning the writer in this haze of a month
But the people sat around me in their ruts they still slump
The cat on the roof of the shed to my left
Sits quietly contemplating while I struggle for breath

The neighbors in the distance walkin cutting the grass
While the sun hits my body but my legs it’ll pass
So my body heated evenly is a myth that’ll last
Till the summer sun hits properly I won’t get caught in the draught
