[Little Simz - Full or Empty lyrics]
I wear my heart on my sleeve for this life
Waking up from a dream, is this life?
Do my words cut deep through this mic?
Lately I've been doing a lot
More thinking than writing
A lot more finding myself, to be precise
And now I've come to a realisation
That I should create the person
To be in this life
People often think that I get too deep
You'd probably understand if you knew me
I've seen my nephew grow within two weeks
Still asking God "why'd you choose me?"
I guess I'll work it out in due time
Look at the moonlight i've seen my options
I'm just hoping that I choose right
He wanna know if I've been
Moving with a new guy
I tell him "do your thing and I'll do mine"
See, this ain't rocket science
This ain't a game, boy
Still conveying the same message
With the same voice
Still applying the same pressure
I ain't eased up
All they talk about is money
And bitches to feel up
What happened to the content?
What you saying?
You can tell that Simbi isn't playing
Everybody's looking for a way in
Celebrities looking for a way out
How the fuck am I supposed to stay now?
Came in fully loaded but it stayed down
Don't come with the bullshit
That's all played out
I'm about to make the scene lay down
You already know that space with me
I need space, guess space is the place for me
And us
We look and all we see
Signs say follow me this way
I won't hesitate
Cause I don't know better, you know
Will you lead me down a full or empty road?
How can we proceed? Listen
I won't rush you if you don't rush me but
That don't answer the question, it's like
How can we proceed? I don't trust you
And you don't even trust me so
What's the point? This ain't going nowhere
When it's raining, it's pouring
No umbrellas, we ignore it
Still these visions are distorted
Don't lose sight of what's important
Don't forget it, here, record it
Moving forward
Last week, I was in a mad race
Listen to this when you're in a bad place
Or you're happy or whatever
I wish I could control the weather
Mind, body and soul was fed up
Tryna find my way home with my head up
Ain't no pressure
Ain't no living life like this
I'm just tryna light my spliff
All praise to the highest
Beat made by Osiris aGE 101 sameness
Been ever so patient while intoxicated
Lowkey I'm frustrated but I play it cool
They don't have to say it, Simz is dangerous
Only Space Age in your playlist
I'm warming up, i tell 'em "you will know
When I have made it"
How the hell can you talk about the realest?
Do you know what real is? I'm the meanest
Everything I do is genius
Probably cause I reside from
Something down to Venus, oh shit
Rain dance on your whole clique
They drop new songs weaker than my old shit
See, I can get a little
Cocky when I'm not myself
But I'm still myself, you feel me, hey?
You feel me? Hey, hey
We look and all we see
Signs say follow me this way
I won't hesitate
Cause I don't know better, you know
Will you lead me down?
Will you take me down a full or empty road?
Food for thought and for your soul
Lord, I'm trying to be good
These demons won't leave me alone
I see you on social networks
Still, I won't pick up that phone
Cause my pride won't let me hang
Yes, I'm ashamed, I know, I know
Been on this path for ages
I could barely see the light
Check in through the day
I'll be gone by night
Then you say I ain't got time for you
Making me feel guilty
That's that shit I don't like
Man, I'm still about, you see me on my bike
No fake friends, that's not my style
I know my life is changing
Where I'm gonna look to when
The paps say smile
We look and all we see
Signs say follow me this way
I won't hesitate
Cause I don't know better, you know
Will you lead me down, down, down?
Take 'em, hey how can we proceed?
How can we proceed? Like
