slowthai - push lyrics

Out in the dark he found a road To quietly walk alone Harder the days he learned to know The calm comes after the storm Sit back and watch the rain Breathe out before tomorrow Slow down before you break And you're cast aside Meet me at the back of the bus Beep beep with my hat and my gloves See me, I'm erratic on drugs Do stuff I regret, feel embarrassed tomorrow Wagwan what ya under? Far side of the yonder Far cry from a younger Hard times made me stronger And these drinks makes me drunker, drugs made me fonder Selling drugs gets you richer, that's a royal flush on the river Go HMP for a winter I grew up 'round toxic And people can't sea 'cause live in a pond with some dumb fish I was with sharks outside the park When it's dark, lighters spark, nobody wanna try it with us Pop out like a jack-in-the-box Saying "This what you wanted?" Same ones that will praise you up Be the same ones to say you're done It's all love Non-stop, you get cropped like bud 'Cause no one wanna see you blossom on top From the bottom, yeah, I climbed a lot And people tryna break my thumbs What's good? Be the barber, gotta line it up

When push comes to shove You gotta push System lagging, think we need a reboot Feeling stranded, got me feeling feeble You're never there when I really need you Always land on my feet like a cat out a tree Watch it crumble to sand while I'm gritting my teeth sh*t flies with the magpies He drowned, got baptised Oh well, I guess that's life So now I gotta pass time So quiet, hear a penny drop Riot in my head and it's loud as fu*k fu*k the people tried doubting us I fall on my knees with my hands to God Bite the hand that feeds you If I said I loved you I would never leave you If I said I loved you it's because I need you Call you pancake like I need my treacle Same ones that will praise you up Be the same ones to say you're done It's all love Non-stop, you get cropped like bud 'Cause no one wanna see you blossom on top From the bottom, yeah, I climbed a lot And people tryna break my thumbs What's good? Be the barber, gotta line it up When push comes to shove You gotta push Sit back and watch the rain Breathe out before tomorrow Slow down before you break And you're cast aside
