Slowthai - ​i know nothing lyrics

I know nothing i keep getting older

My whole generation misguided
We are one and the same it cuts me deep
I pray understanding that I won't be heard
I'm in line like everyone else
There's no exception
I lay still with my legs
Shaking out of anxiety
Some people ain't comfortable
With their sexuality
It must be awful to wake up and live a lie
Society tells us we need money
We need a mortgage
We fall into what's expected instead
Of what we want
Greed fuels the hungry and no
One gives a fuck
We rely on a system that's failed us
We're in prison waiting for a day off
Social media distorts our
Perception of reality
'Cause everyone seems happy, in fact
They're miserable and that's why they need
Gratification from strangers

Sometimes, I look in the mirror and reflect
On what I used to be
Before the people I loved started using me

I know nothing, I'm just getting older
I know nothing, I'm just getting older
I know nothing, I'm just getting older
(I know nothing)
I know nothing, I'm just getting older
(Getting older)
I know nothing, I'm just getting older

My whole generation misguided
We are one and the same it cuts me deep
I pray understanding that I won't be heard
I'm in line like everyone else
There's no exception
I lay still with my legs
Shaking out of anxiety
Some people ain't comfortable
With their sexuality
It must be awful to wake up and live a lie
Society tells us we need money
We need a mortgage
We fall into what's expected instead
Of what we want
Greed fuels the hungry and no
One gives a fuck

Sometimes, I look in the mirror and reflect
On who I used to be
Before the people I loved started using me

I know nothing, I keep getting older
I know nothing, I keep getting older
I know nothing, I keep getting older
(I know nothing)
I know nothing, I keep getting older
I know nothing, I keep getting old
I know nothing, I keep getting older
(I know nothing, I keep getting older)
