A Gift & A Curse |
| You want to see the best of me |
| You gotta see the worst of me |
| You wanna see the gift of me |
| You gotta see the curse of me |
| You gotta see the world I’ve seen |
| You gotta see the dreams I dream |
| Well, nobody sees me, no |
| The rise and fall |
| You gotta see what I’ve seen |
| Be where I’ve been to achieve these dreams |
| Be a teen on the UK streets |
| Scared for your life, getting chased through the night |
| And the world’s getting ruthless |
| You got a red eye, everybody’s on a high |
| And the matters got stupid, so have I |
| All you ever do is bring me down |
| I’m living up to the name you gave me tonight |
| And I am silent, that’s why everybody wants me to live a lie |
| I ain’t sure being thirty, I come from a place where the good die young |
| And the bad die when is their time, they say this to the face |
| Just know that my head’s inside two worlds so my new name’s two face |
| You want to see the best of me |
| You gotta see the worst of me |
| You wanna see the gift of me |
| You gotta see the curse of me |
| You gotta see the world I’ve seen |
| You gotta see the dreams I dream |
| Well, nobody sees me, no |
| The rise and fall |
| I showed you the gift, let me show you the curse |
| You get big, then vultures emerge |
| And so called friends try pulling your bird |
| Once again, I gotta roll in the curb |
| And I try to live my life with morals |
| But find myself in many more quarrels |
| So I seek salvation in words |
| So many votes, a gift and a curse |
| The reason I flourished and grew |
| Might be the reason I feel malnourished and blue |
| I felt pain in the world |
| My arteries run through the chambers of hell |
| All I know is from an young man’s view |
| I’ve seen some things so amazing in this world |
| Sometimes the grass is greener |
| Sometimes is quite hard to tell |
| You want to see the best of me |
| You gotta see the worst of me |
| You wanna see the gift of me |
| You gotta see the curse of me |
| You gotta see the world I’ve seen |
| You gotta see the dreams I dream |
| Well, nobody sees me any more |
| The rise and fall |
| Head in the sky, but my hands on the floor |
| Hard, but this night, will survive through this storm |
| You gotta see the world I’ve seen |
| You gotta see the dreams I dream |
| But nobody sees me at all, the rise and fall |
