lyrics

My hearts on fire
I’m on the edge now iyah
I heard God loves a tryer
I’m still trying
Friends ask if im good
I say nothing I don’t want to be a lair
Retail distraction
Constant buyer
Adds to the fuel
Now the sitch is dyair
I keep telling myself its all good
It’s going to work itself out
I’m trying to make all my moves carefully
You’re not carefree when you vibrate higher
I like brewing alone
I can procrastinate to my hearts desire
I know i said no we phoned formed
But it’s starting to feel like the formulas won
Because i done laps & laps on this circuit
Maybe i should retire
Who gives vibes to the vibes supplier
Friends ask me what’s troubling me now?
Alot of past issues i should of dealt with prior
Distractions made the time fly by us
I’m trying to move more direct not via
I’m stuck in a loop that im trying to break fast
Like fry ups
My insecurities shot me down
Even i let me down
Bare promises that i made to myself but
I cant recollect them now
I must of blocked them out
Brand new regrets my collections…wow
I still find it hard to explain what im stressed about
Rie & Phe is getting older
I’m stuck in my head
But i am the shoulder
Years past but I haven’t grown much
Maybe I’ve missed my peak is the phobia
Fought wars in my head like a solider
Bare letters that i could show Mum
I’m trying to find a way
Maybe it goes away
If i don’t pick my phone up
I kept ignoring what was most important
On edge that’s why i move with caution
Been broke will I for fill my fortune
Be real what have you’re mistakes taught you?
Have they pushed or scorned you?
I said they don’t make any money
So my Girls asking
Why am i making more tunes?
I ain’t got no answers for that
I came this far & its hard to get back
It’s part of my now it’s hard to detach
I want to make art with the scars that i have
I know my life wasn’t as hard as my Dads
Thank Gloria & Francis for that
I’m gonna thank them with every chance that i have
Lied to myself for the 100th time
Self care,it must be nice
Self control on a strong decline
What excuse will i make this time
Rinse & repeat
You know the drill
How many times
I said how many times
I swore that i would change my life
Constantly contradict myself
Like I don’t want to win
Ponder how quick Karma is
Can’t live life without consequences
& really none of us have got long to live
I don’t want to waste my time here
God forbid
It’s a hard pill to swallow when your life don’t look like it did
When your dream might be all it is
When the ones you hurt don’t forgive
I was trying to wait for the right time
Is the time now?
My girl wants kid
I know i should just go find me a job
But I don’t want to quit
Somethings got to give
But anyway who am i?
Take my advice
Or don’t take my advice
Don’t stand still
Run for your life
RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
