Testo Tokyo Proverbs - Stalley
Testo della canzone Tokyo Proverbs (Stalley), tratta dall'album Pariah
Yeah, yeah, wise man said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, wise man said, wise man said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ain't no fear, wise man said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no doubt, oh, yeah
Ain't no wise man said, correct
They told me good ones ain't supposed to die (Ain't supposed to die)
And girls don't cry (They don't cry)
Guess that all was a lie, get high
Tryna face my pride (Tryna face my pride)
I need a moment to myself, a bit of privacy (A bit of privacy)
Seems everyone who hurt try to confide in me (Try to confide in me)
Shit, I hurt too, they just don't be tryin' to see
Turn blind to the flame that be burnin' in me (Burnin')
It's hot and all this pressure be boilin' my blood (Boilin' my blood)
All this hate around really be spoilin' my love (Spoilin' my love)
Who do I trust? This thought constantly screwin' me up
Confusin', I'm stuck, I need motion (I need motion)
Tryin' not to be emotional and stay focused (Stay focused)
Away from vultures, it's like I was
My happiest when at my brokest (Nah)
Nah, that's not fair to say
'Cause even on those sunny days, it was fairly gray (And they say)
The stick that sticks up gets hammered down (Gets hammered down)
The minute you don't stand up, you stand down (You stand down)
It's always criticism when you stand out (When you stand out)
But if life ever knocks you down, hold ground (Hold ground)
It's what you make out of life's
Lessons (It's what you make out of it)
You got your sight and you're not breathless (You're not breathless)
Just stay firm on your word (Stay firm)
And live through this Tokyo Proverb (Proverb)
Dance like a monk in diamonds (Dancin')
Guess you can say in many ways, I'm shinin' (Shinin')
Change the climate by changin' who I am
Redefinin' who they thought that I'd be
Lost and forgotten, new boy, they tried me
They expectations short, they must be 5'3"
Ain't no shortcuts, my roads keep winding
No whining, this timing's just to find me (Me)
And you know God's timin' is perfect (Perfect)
All that time shapin' and moldin', it's so worth it (So worth it)
Sometimes I feel a heart less in my soul purpose (Soul purpose)
I ain't perfect, but I perfectly inserted this grit
So anything I get, I earned it, firm grip
I ain't lettin' go of a goal I ain't get yet
On myself, I place a bet
And you know I'm here to win, I ain't take an L yet
The stick that sticks up gets hammered down (Gets hammered down)
The minute you don't stand up, you stand down (You stand down)
It's always criticism when you stand out (When you stand out)
But if life ever knocks you down, hold ground (Hold ground)
It's what you make out of life's
Lessons (It's what you make out of it)
You got your sight and you're not breathless (You're not breathless)
Just stay firm on your word (Stay firm)
And live through this Tokyo Proverb (Proverb)
