[Little Simz - Backseat lyrics]
Oh all my life been a black sheep
All my life been the black keys
True I never really was a bad breed
Daddy probably rather me an athlete
Man that nigga move like a taxi
All my life in the backseat
You talk about life is it that sweet?
All these eyes staring at me
I've been feeling real low nigga, lowkey
(lowkey)
How a brave heart feeling so weak? (so weak)
Tattoos on my passport, no sleep (no sleep)
This is what you asked for don't weep
Don't winge, man I'm here and I won't leave
All I wanna do, make songs, blow trees
Wouldn't be honest with myself
If I don't speak
So I make the point to address
'em man you know me (hey)
Got me believing in Buddha the more I proceed
(yuh) oh this life isn't guaranteed (yuh)
All my life felt a cold breeze
In and out but staying up and never down
You hearing me now?
Give me some time and a little space
I'll figure it out
They wanna know my whereabouts
And who I'm around
Been in wonderland for time
Tryna' find our way out
You can hear it my rhymes
I'll be thinking aloud
I'ma be ghost for a minute
Don't get in your feelings
I ain't even wrote for a minute
Not a single lyric man I got a life that is
Crazy most cannot live it
See 'em tryna' sabotage me
Got me fucking livid
All my life been a black sheep
All my life been the black keys
True I never really was a bad breed
Daddy probably rather me an athlete
Man that nigga move like a taxi (yuh)
All my life in the backseat (yuh)
Talk about life is it that sweet? (yuh)
All these eyes staring at me (yuh)
Phone rings and I missed called everyone
All I hear 'em saying is
Look what you've become
This is what you signed up, before you forget
This is what you get, uh
This is what you get
All these eyes in the front row
Hella' pure souls in the front row
Remember seeing J Cole I was in the front row
Couldn't move, was in awe if you must know
Still struggling to find who I trust though
All my life in the cut though (yuh)
All my life caught the bus home
Through the north side
Then I got a pedal bike
Mommy flipped when I got home
Like, people get
Killed out here but mummy I'm
A rider and a fighter
Never been a dickhead in life
Don't ever try me
Don't get it confused 'cause I'm
Humble and I'm quiet
Loud niggas step into Simz and get silenced
I ain't gotta say how but
It don't involve violence
Though I got Gs that are already
In the hair for it
But there's no need, I just want peace
Take me higher
Get an eight from the supplier
Make your mind up
What you mean? What you desire?
Niggas hating but it's cool man, it's a minor
I just do me on my own and I'm the driver
Twenty-three feeling older and I'm wiser
All my life been searched for
What I'd die for
Guess I am the one, the people I'ma fight for
Surely you should know who you rep
Who you ride for
All my life been a black sheep
All my life been the black keys
True I never really was a bad breed
(bad breed)
Daddy probably rather me an athlete
Man that nigga move like a taxi (yuh)
All my life in the backseat (yuh)
Talk about life is it that sweet? (yuh)
All these eyes staring at me (yuh)
Phone rings and I missed called everyone
All I hear 'em saying is, what you become
This is what you signed up, before you forget
This is what you get, this is what you get
All my life been the black keys
