King Krule - You Took Your Time lyrics

[Verse 1: King Krule] Now did you see me, I k**ed a man They all stayed down, but he chose to stand And girl, when did it hit you deep To watch his mind seep Across the pavement, beat down, slaps the meat Each and every single one of your feet That you will ever know The limitations of a clone They kept me on my throne The silk space of time Covered in a trace of slime It's not here to appear for the tears The mere hatred that flows through the years The silent calm, washed violent charm Held in the depths of a tyrant's palm Expect the ides, to lay by his side And bear with the sight of just another man's mind [Verse 2: King Krule] I must mistake the high Cool these breaks, these stakes will lie I was not born to be taught I was born to be exposed in the storm And held awhile In the hot heat in the mother Sat by the feet of your lover Feet down, decede one another I dug through these graves to uncover A pile of bones mixed with violent tones Forced through the earth with these silent drones I'll seek through time, evading the mimes I'll breathe in time and of the guide's sign [Verse 3: King Krule] You trust these snakes to die? With all the ways you trace the climb Go up the ladder, made from the latter Made even sadder, but he born to an adder I'm on the depth of a bridge You took your time to plant a seed A seed of hate, the plagues you played So bear witness to the strength and states You want to be the body of song Are you strong across this glum Pinnacle of crumbs See these hands and see what they crave to be done You are, you are this useless art that's gone too far You are, you are You are a body of song You pave me down to the dirt and scum Look what I've become See these hands, these actions that I've done Walk bear beaten down Black blue brains out This drain will be clogged Let their brains be drowned Walk bear beaten down These Black beat brains out These drains be clogged These brains be drowned [Outro: King Krule]
