Leon Zervos - Déjà Vu lyrics
[Pre-Chorus: Jeswon & Tuka] Same sh**, different day shift Late night, hit the light switch I used to feel safe in this blanket I used to dream bigger than inside of my eyelids But tonight I'm wide-awake Waiting for them sheep to count Wishing I could find a way to break the cycles I've built ‘Cause right now I'm freaking out [Chorus 1: Jeswon & Tuka] ‘Cause it's true, I've been sleeping I've been sleeping on my dreams for way too long That's why you hear me saying Déjà vu Maybe one day I'll wake up ‘Cause I've been waiting on that day to come for way too long That's why you hear me saying Déjà vu [Verse 1: Jeswon] I bought a ticket for the lottery And I got every single number right But I left it in the pocket of my grotty jeans That were ruined when I threw them in the tumble dry So now I'm sitting here staring out a window pane Satisfied with this fat slice of humble pie And I ain't really down with this f**ing rain but I'ma stick around for the sunny side Up at the crack of dawn, home in the dead of night No time to dedicate, no time to set aside Instead I get in line, I wish that I had it all Slave to a dollar sign, pa** me the Panadol I've been on the edge, I've been tripping tripping Yo, can I get a grip, I've been slipping, slipping Yo, let me reminisce on this feeling, I'm feeling Sick of hearing one day, I'ma make a k**ing but don't [Chorus 1: Jeswon, Tuka & Venessa Caspersz] I've been sleeping on my dreams for way too long That's why you hear me saying Déjà vu Maybe one day I'll wake up ‘Cause I've been waiting on that day to come for way too long That's why you hear me saying Déjà vu [Chorus 2: Jeswon & Tuka] I reminisce so much, déjà vu I reminisce so much, déjà vu Like Pete Rock and CL Smooth Ayo, I reminisce over you, my god, déjà vu I reminisce so much, déjà vu I reminisce so much, déjà vu Like Pete Rock and CL Smooth Ayo, I reminisce over you, my god [Verse 2: Tuka] I got a fire in my belly, you can see it in my eyes Inspired by the many who could reach for the skies Or light up the room in the dark with the vibrance of youth Stay wise to the truth in your heart An indigo child, spilt from the movement of stars Soon to depart, only visitors sightsee All I see is me and my team Tryna add a dash of future that we scooped from the past Flying at light speed, I been riding on a pipe dream And it's got you thinking what one might be Do you know the difference? Do you know what I mean? Homie, be chill like ice tea, can you go the distance? Tai chi, can you flow with me still? Or are you sickened ‘cause my poetry's ill? Do you remember now we're older thinking back about the road that we built? Are we over the hill? If it could only be real [Pre-Chorus: Jeswon & Tuka] Same sh**, different day shift Late night, hit the light switch I used to feel safe in this blanket I used to dream bigger than inside of my eyelids But tonight I'm wide-awake Waiting for them sheep to count Wishing I could find a way to break the cycles I've built ‘Cause right now I'm freaking out [Chorus 1: Jeswon & Tuka] ‘Cause it's true, I've been sleeping I've been sleeping on my dreams for way too long That's why you hear me saying Déjà vu Maybe one day I'll wake up ‘Cause I've been waiting on that day to come for way too long That's why you hear me saying Déjà vu [Chorus 2: Jeswon & Tuka] I reminisce so much, déjà vu I reminisce so much, déjà vu Like Pete Rock and CL Smooth Ayo, I reminisce over you, my god, déjà vu I reminisce so much, déjà vu I reminisce so much, déjà vu Like Pete Rock and CL Smooth Ayo, I reminisce over you, my god
