[MANIK MC, Jehst, Confucius MC - Trust lyrics]
Then there's nothing I can do to help
You wanna help me? Certainly
If the world was to burn who am I to grieve?
Still I take it on my shoulders
My heart on my sleeve
If the world was to burn who am I to mourn?
Treat it like the last time
Every time that I perform
Eye of the storm
Destroyed until the mind is reformed
Hope the world will be left to
The kind and the warm
We step to the stage when
It's time to perform
Tryina elevate way above all the
Lines that were drawn the live tapestry
Where they stay slicing life drastically
And each face is elegantly placed
Where it has to be
Catch the beat in the midst of catastrophe
Blue crooked flame in my
Hand sitting placidly
Where trust issues keep us all distant
The pen and the sword absorbed
In my short mission
We distort vision, reaching for truth
But falling short of wisdom
Named and numbered compliant in
This corporate prison
Pay the price, keep the soul on ice
Book a table for the lost
Serving soul on rice
You may decide to hold on
Tight or simply let go
Falling forever, drowned in a thousand echos
Where fried chicken is king
With a thousand tescos
And tryina do an expose will get you exposed
The stress rose while I bless flows
While young ladies stack pennies and pounds
To make their chest grow
Im tryina live and let go
But moments cling to me
An instrument just playing my part
In this broken symphony
All hail the unknown force that
Keeps it all moving
The biggest waves always starting
With a small movement
If the world was to burn who am I to grieve?
Still I take it on my shoulders
My heart on my sleeve
If the world was to burn who am I to mourn?
Treat it like the last time
Every time that I perform
Speed it up and then we slow it down, down
Seeking shelter in this broken town
All we know's a broken home
And a frozen frown
You best be stepping up or else
They'll have you stepping down, down
I'm living impulsive with no patience
Signal to the sky with
My shoulders in rotation looking empty eyed
We're all products of no nation
Exclamate the deep
Spit the speech and close the quotations
A world of no colour as
This paint drips on pavements
Meditations of a vagrant
Know our fate is ever changing
Life is what you make it
Minds i'm penetrating
Many mics i'm devastating
Time we rise to the occasion
As we strive for elevation
Rolling papers when the moods right
Blast away the darkness til we're
Dancing in the moonlight
Striving for perfection tryina tighten
Up them loose rhymes
Its colder by the day and family
I ain't tryina lose mines
Thats why the mandem stepping straight
At least we try to be
Let that sentence sit, soaking up the irony
(Soaking up the irony)
And if this world was to burn I
Ask myself who am I to grieve?
No way to change my mood
I watch a rainy day fading from
A grey to a navy blue
What was we meant to prove
Thinking that we chase the truth
Walking talking cliches just tryina
Shake them labels loose
They gotta know this life
Ain't roses and dandelions
Walks by the riverside
Dancing with the dragonflies
Stuck up in this pantomime
Watching our talents die
Living in a shitty manor
Dreaming of a paradise
Since fifteen we been munching beans
Like it's pac man
Lyrics hitting minus degress like
This is lapland
Coming out the city where the
Pipes smoke and gats bang
We walk the same streets the pied
Piper and the rats ran
Tryina shake the spirit's out the
Back of my brain
Cos they been whispering on my
Shoulders til i'm actually insane
They stay preying on my fears
Had me hating on my peers my visions clear
Since I put them back in their place
If the world was to burn who am I to grieve?
Still I take it on my shoulders
My heart on my sleeve
If the world was to burn who am I to mourn?
Treat it like the last time
Every time that I perform
Speed it up and then we slow it down, down
Seeking shelter in this broken town
All we know's a broken home
And a frozen frown
You best be stepping up or else
They'll have you stepping down, down
