Lyrics
Gotta loosen my grip on the world
Squeeze too tight fingers are curled
Want more than I may deserve
Dreams of subliminal words
Lady Luck don't pin it on her
Yeah I'm uptight expect nothing more
One foot outside of the door
Always plotting and my rhymes rocking
And I smile but I'm flipping the bird
Faking joy has got me concerned
Used to have it, but what happened now?
Motivation blurry, feel self pity
Tappin' my phone feel like sleeping til 10AM
Double espresso and sit my arse down
Raise the bar, plough, now it's half twelve
To the park now, with a dumbell
Rest, blue sky, sit for a while
Gotta make it right, change my life
Bought a Bible, try to meditate
Cos my brainpowers going renegade
Gotta loosen my grip on the world
Why aren't they returning my calls
Hypertext transfer protocol
Messaging passively never meet physically
Sick and tired of the shit in the world
Irritating and keeping me down
Popped a pill, yeah, what happens now?
Numbing for hours and superpowers
But I don't wanna fuck up and build a dependency
Not like the others, I see a path out
Top players don't dope games out
On the bench now, pour my heart out
Been on the sidelines, from the sidelines
From on the sidelines, from the sidelines
Sit on the sidelines, on the sidelines
Til I know I'm right
Daybreak I tap the phone
Thirty unread, time has flown
Gotta get back in the zone
Last night seems overblown
Take a shower, Boss, new cologne
Take a drink, Voss, chug it down
Won't stop me now
All the trouble won't stop me now
Take a tablet of D and B
1,2,3 shot caffeine
Bullet time, no stopping me
Hit a shot of G&T
And the pain of life disappears
There's a day without any fears
I can feign a smile in the mirror
Knowing that my real problem's
Between my ears
Then one night, turning upside down
My life aching heart
I wait a minute cos I thought I had it
Under my control but now I got admit I'm asking
Oooh whyyy
Oooh whyyy
Oooh whyyy
Oooh whyyy
Why you spill blood, why you take lives
Why'd you build me, up just to paralyze
Cos you heal pain, then you amplify it
Every hill pales to the mountainside
Asking
Oooh whyyy
Oooh whyyy
Oooh whyyy
Oooh whyyy
Is it all in my head? Are you there in my life?
Give me a sign, are you here in disguise?
Here on the sidelines, on the sidelines
On the sidelines, on the sidelines
Hands on my head and the sides of my heart
Bargain with God and my wording is smart
On the sidelines, from the sidelines
Sit on the sidelines, from the side-
Cutting me down and destroying my pride
Where are you now are you hearing my lines?
There on the sidelines, from the sidelines
From the sidelines, from the sidelines
Maybe you know when I'm telling a lie
Maybe you'll open a hole in the sky
Give a high sign from the sidelines
Sit on the sidelines
Talking to heaven take me to the sky
Lighting the way and I'm lighting a fire
Never to give up on the ride
Never to know if I qualify
Maybe there's hope of redeeming my soul
Heavens'll open and swallow me whole
Still on the sidelines, on the sidelines
On the sidelines, on the sidelines
Hand on my head and the sides of my heart
Bargain with God and my wording is smart
Never hear back
Was the time right?
Was the time right?
Was the time right?
Was the time right?
Was the time right?
Was the time right?
Was the time right?
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Ooh, Lord, yeah, trouble so hard
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
Don't nobody know my troubles but God
