Testo Taking Things For Granted - Joy Oladokun
Testo della canzone Taking Things For Granted (Joy Oladokun), tratta dall'album Proof Of Life
In the school yard when I was a kid
I gave everyone my address, said, "Come on over," and it-
It turns out that nobody did
Swimmin' alone's how I spent my eighth birthday
Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
I never got out of the water, even though I did
Sometimes it feels like everyone's lookin' at the surface
And it's not happenin' on purpose
But they're takin' things for granted again
I'm learnin' to write my wrongs (learnin' to write my wrongs)
And speak up when I feel like I'm not bein' listened to
But some story entered my bones
When I was far too young to know not to listen to
What people say, 'cause (ah) everybody's feelin' the pressure (ah)
Of a world that keeps tryin' to end us everyday
Sometimes it feels like (ah) everyone's lookin' at the surface (ah)
And it's not happenin' on purpose
But they're takin' things for granted again
Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
I never got out of the water, even though I did
Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
I never got out of the water, even though I did
Sometimes it feels like this world's got nothing for me
Gettin' blind stares in return for what I give
Sometimes I feel a (ah) thousand eyes lookin' down at the surface (ah)
And they're watchin' me drown on purpose
Oh, they're takin' things for granted again
