Testo Truce - Illy
Testo della canzone Truce (Illy), tratta dall'album Two Degrees
Yeah
And it goes like this
Love at first sight grassed you on the greenest
Your music to their ears, symphony completed
You see it and you believe it
From top of your new era to the soles on your Adidas
You couldn't put a foot wrong even if you wanted
It's magic in your moves, they all tell you that you got it
But that vibe got a shelf life and the clock's ticking
You can tell when it felt right, then it didn't
And they say it's gone to your head
Dammit, it was all love when you wasn't a threat
And scare yourself to death, expectations ain't met
Second guess every move, that paranoia don't mean it ain't true
It's on you, no one hear you calling for help
Battle lines in your mind in a war with yourself
And you drown in the shots ringing out all around
Yelling, "Man down, man down, man down"
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know the breaks
And I know, I know, I know, I know it's all to lose
But I know, I know, I know you are not your mistakes
So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce
Yeah
Pre-empting my own fate
Feel me fading away at the going rate
Convinced an inevitable fall from grace
Fear mixed with hating myself for shit that I can't change
Put my opinion over anyone else
You think there's anything they're saying I ain't thought of myself?
Fuck it, I'm nothing less than that, a fraud, man
Better if I wasn't here, wrestle those thoughts to the floor
Like a fuck-up I defeat myself before my turn
I prefer to assume the worst than to get hurt
When success and self-worth lines blur
Perfect storm of outside force and self-saboteur
'Cause the world's scratched the surface, barely sinks teeth in
But personal demons could tear me to pieces
I know they say to know you're not alone
But no one else inside this fucking war zone like
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know the breaks
And I know, I know, I know, I know it's all to lose
But I know, I know, I know you are not your mistakes
So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce
Yeah
So this is how it ends
Bitter getting by with a little help from your friends
Going without, accepting what I within
Self-respect and self-forgiveness, that's a hell of a thing
And if it's out of my hands, in control
Then I don't really talk about that anymore
Won't always be the good days, for sure it'll storm
But you can't feel the black cloud above till it's gone
Yeah, but live and let live, coup de grâce
It gets heavy but just know this too shall pass, man
Solace is a promised land
Two hands, either end of an olive branch
And it can all change without reason
My inner peace still a long shot but I'm reaching
I know it when I say it's all good and I actually believe it
Believe it, believe it, yeah
And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know the breaks (And I know the breaks)
And I know, I know, I know, I know it's all to lose (Yeah)
But I know, I know, I know you are not
Your mistakes (You are not your mistakes)
So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know the breaks
And I know, I know, I know, I know it's all to lose
But I know, I know, I know you are not your mistakes
So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce
And sometimes I'm like, "Fuck it, why even try?"
Then a message from a fan will say I saved their life
So just know, inspiration, that's a two-way street
I drive myself crazy, then you save me
So let's see where the new day leads, let the motor run
I know it can be hard tryna open up
But at the heart of the matter, man, it's only love
And if you don't know your own story, no one does
