The xx - Not Just Me lyrics
[The xx - Not Just Me lyrics]
I've been sleeping pretty late I don’t even
Know how to feel this pain
I shiver, cower, lost all my power
Soaked wet in this pouring rain
This is a game, we have to play
Play till the day when we get tamed
What a waste, what a shame
Is this the reason why you came?
Give me a reason to keep on dreaming
Apples of Eden eaten as treason
And every season is a new demon
Strangle your feelings
All the purges I survived you can't even tell
Navigate across the pond into
The gates of hell
I do not need first aid go help someone else
Sell my soul on amazon, free shipping as well
Ay, grinding it out till I break
Working so hard till I go insane
Ain't got no overtime pay
From September to May
Don’t you try to escape
Hate it, Fake it, Make it, Take it
Do you know the way?
Took this pen and I wrote this rap
Trying to find a way to get out of this trap
Too many haters but not enough dabs
Is it time yet to take an eternal nap?
And I know there are things that
Are too hard to crack
So if you can't untie them
Give a little smack
When life gives you poison gas
Put on a hazmat
Evolution leaves only absolute mad lads
Your turf, my turn, please, make the way
Better treat me better if
They wanna save face
Isn't it fantastic born in the human race?
But hold up wait, am I really seen the same?
Eight nation invasion can't bring
Us into no subjugation still got motivation
To each my friend and friendly acquaintance
Tell you a little secret the key is patience
Feels cold at the moment when
They bulldoze your hopes
But a rope around the throat is
Not the way to cope
Even though what you showed
Was better eightfold
You gotta go solo to a higher threshold
Don't lose control you're made of gold
Don't be sold at the price of a piece of coal
Wanna play equal? But, you at a casino
Well at least it is not just me, no
Know how to feel this pain
I shiver, cower, lost all my power
Soaked wet in this pouring rain
This is a game, we have to play
Play till the day when we get tamed
What a waste, what a shame
Is this the reason why you came?
Give me a reason to keep on dreaming
Apples of Eden eaten as treason
And every season is a new demon
Strangle your feelings
All the purges I survived you can't even tell
Navigate across the pond into
The gates of hell
I do not need first aid go help someone else
Sell my soul on amazon, free shipping as well
Ay, grinding it out till I break
Working so hard till I go insane
Ain't got no overtime pay
From September to May
Don’t you try to escape
Hate it, Fake it, Make it, Take it
Do you know the way?
Took this pen and I wrote this rap
Trying to find a way to get out of this trap
Too many haters but not enough dabs
Is it time yet to take an eternal nap?
And I know there are things that
Are too hard to crack
So if you can't untie them
