lyrics

Dare I dream of you
Dare I breathe the same air you do
Dare I swim with you
Dare I dream the same dreams you do
You do
You do
You do

Perpetual and harrowing
Precludes my view I settle in
My girl is such an optimist
We can't agree on everything
She holds me down an lifts me up
I wish I shared her point of view
I can only count on these ten toes
Can't let no-one else see me through

I just can't concentrate
When the thoughts get too loud
I see grey, heavy clouds
All around now
I just can't go for mine
When the worlds bleeding out
All this hate raining down
On my timeline

I just can't concentrate
When the thoughts get too loud
I see grey, heavy clouds
All around now
I just can't go for mine
When the worlds bleeding out

Dare I dream of you
Dare I breathe the same air you do
Dare I swim with you
Dare I dream the same dreams you do

Logged out
Don't hit my line man not now
Day in day out like what now?
New day same shit my lockdown
I hate these apps
They be low key crack
I be doing my work
But I get distracted
Hop on the gram
I can't help reacting
I lost my voice
Now I can't even rap

Cuz all I see if looting
Shooting, riots, nooses
Killer cops, they loosed em
If you surprised then you stupid
Politicians been folding
They killed that boy in holding
White hoods, they getting emboldened
If so, me and mines on road then

At home and abroad, it's doom and gloom
Memories follow me round like ghouls
It's my fight so I can't exclude
In the deep end, no swimming pools
Don't be alarmed most days I'm cool
Gotta offload though, that's that truth
Might not be as full on for you
Cuz it ain't your kin and it ain't your crew

I got no time to chill, uh
Still climbing that hill
And on top of that
I'm in my feels
Got old scars that still ain't healed
Trying to take this pill and smile
So be mindful before you dial my number
Of all the stress I'm under
I know you gon' ask for something
Yo

Dare I dream of you
Dare I breathe the same air you do
Dare I swim with you
Dare I dream the same dreams you do
You do
You do
You do
