Myndstate - Potential lyrics

Yo yo let me talk Hear the freedom in my speeches, off these teachings Reach off the power like leeches Overtime hours aim reaching for champagne showers Cower under the roof, we lie awake under the truth It's power no spoof, while we lie awake in silence Hear my drive from the brake screeches, no violence Don't lie around and wait for timeless features Don't mistake the fakes for greats, it's never too late to sand these beaches Stand out from niches, get on TV with Lorraine I ain't talking about quiches Because our potential is waiting Because our potential is waiting Because i ain't no stereotype so don't put me in a box I'm thinking outside it, my pad's got no locks And i ain't got no tattoo's, there's no ink on this skin Just the ink on my paper, but my words are growing thin It's absurd like my sin, and it's lost like my patience I feel i'm on the right track, but the train's left the station A lost generation, trials and tribulations If this is all there is where can we find motivation So i look to commuters, packed in London trains Follow like sheep to stay 9 to 5 at computers Coz there's so much competition, and life is an audition Yet f** thinking i need your permission to be a musician To envision a tradition of no suits and no boots They strangle like straight jackets, don't try to dispute But we keep going around, forced into play like a throw-in All ups and down but still a constant plateauing, in a daily routine No excitement of not knowing in the queue for caffeine Yo yo let me talk Because our potential is waiting Because our potential is waiting Because our potential is waiting Everything we dream is possible to create, this fate, and Daymares at daytime, nightmares come alive But you still see my vision when i close my eyes Do you even realise the disguise you've kept hidden in the skies While bed ridden, drawn to the light like flies Discovering states when it gets late, no taxes or hates Ride on the inflatables, are we plain fools with platefuls Or desperate take it alls Just swim with your pools of idea We don't just educate from schools, we just don't use our tools at all here Yo yo let me talk Yo yo let me talk Yo yo let me talk Yo yo let me talk
