Testo Shadows - MANIK MC feat. Loyle Carner
Testo della canzone Shadows (MANIK MC feat. Loyle Carner), tratta dall'album Midnight Express
Ayo I'm billing up in Clissold Park
It's out the crib again - every other night
Surfing at a different friends
Caring for your parents gets so hard trying to live with them
It's part of the life resenting all that time you have to give to them
Tensions start to rise - divides growing bigger
They say that time heals - but time can't fix her
Start feeling anger - know that you shouldn't be
Envying what others have - wondering what could've been
Back up in these streets again
Traipsing through East again
Had to duck my yard - she gone and had beef again
She started acting crazy - telling me to leave again
I'm packing up some garms walking Stokey high street again
(Ayo it's me again)
(Can I crash at yours and borrow P again?)
It's just that circular lifestyle
Had to get my head clear - had to sort my life out
It hurts when you look into their eyes and the fire's dim
And yeah it's only growing weaker
Crushed by the tide all the while we just tried to swim
And when that love gets no easier
The pity starts to rise no matter how hard you try resist
Or when you're trying to replace this
Unattached minds trying to thrive in this life of sin
Aware of the time that's remaining
I said you wouldn't understand
I need my mother's hand
Don't need no greed from no other man
Saying all he need is another grand
And so I snap she snaps back like a rubber band
And boom I'm out of the house - different couch
The same words from a different mouth
Saying all we need is to spit it out
Cause she's the one I couldn't live without
Just another browning
They say I'm clowning
Trust - am I waving or am I drowning?
I can't stay - can't blame my surroundings
But can't forget the day that they found him
I couldn't move mountains
Instead I stood still
I couldn't move didn't look real
Don't give a fuck how you feel
It's too ill, ayo it's
It hurts when you look into their eyes and the fire's dim
And yeah it's only growing weaker
Crushed by the tide all the while we just tried to swim
And when that love gets no easier
The pity starts to rise no matter how hard you try resist
Or when you're trying to replace this
Unattached minds trying to thrive in this life of sin
Aware of the time that's remaining
Sat in the kitchen with the lights off
4 In the morning and I can't sleep
Cause every time I drift off it feels like I can't breathe
Hear my ribs bouncing with my heartbeat
Then my vision slows again
It's like I froze again
Clutching at my chest
Feeling like it's turned to stone again
And then that image shifts
We're sat up on that bridge side spinning sticks
Trade my dreams for your secrets
Then the waves turn to static
Reminiscing on young Manik lighting zoots off them matchsticks
Nah it weren't determined and it's hardly planning
And if they never heard me then it hardly happened
I'm standing knee-deep in madness
Trying to pull it loose in the ICU
Hoping mumsy's pulling through
Hoping mumsy's pulling through
Cause we're desensitised - but we ain't bulletproof
It hurts when you look into their eyes and the fire's dim
And yeah it's only growing weaker
Crushed by the tide all the while we just tried to swim
And when that love gets no easier
The pity starts to rise no matter how hard you try resist
Or when you're trying to replace this
Unattached minds trying to thrive in this life of sin
Aware of the time that's remaining
