Rodney - Listen lyrics

[Intro] Listen Listen (Yeah) [Verse 1: Theo] Nothing is promised in life except d**h (Woh!) So if you're gonna live life You might as well live it right I'm sorry to be so blunt I'm trynna prove a point Everyone wants to know What's gonna happen if I don't win I guess will never know Wrote this after I saw myself saying Ye Grammy speech Lost for words Realised that half the things I put in my songs I can't say it to the people I know Tell me what's going down I've been as you say So stuck up Lost in my thoughts (Ah) In my own world (Yeah) That's living the dream Me avoiding negativity Now I look around (Round) Is this a fantasy (Sy) I guess I've kinda lost sight of my reality [Hook: Theo] And I'm like Girl Listen (x3) I'm like Listen (x3) I'm trynna let my songs be heard Let my songs be heard I'm letting my heart beat guide me I'm letting my heart beat guide me But the voice inside me Still sings alone [Verse 2: Theo] I get it We used to be so close Now we are strangers with memories Like what date are we on I've defiantly lost track of time We chose our separate ways But it seems everyone won't admit it So they claim they have it all under control So we fight the distance Message each other things we don't have the guts say in person say in person Is it worse to lack emotion or reason? Matters of the heart and mind You say guys are the same But still hope for the perfect man Yeah that could be a good thing But the good things in my life could be pa**ing me by Like you Yeah you could be living the dream But how often do you realise you are living it We want more and more and more I sometimes I wish we had our old times What we had before You were so down to earth A big part of my world You know the drill you would feel free Break the girl code And you would just call [Hook 2: Theo] And I would Listen (x3) I would Listen (x3) And you would let your song be herd Let your song be heard Let your heartbeat guide you Let your heartbeat guide you But the voice inside you still sings alone [Bridge: Theo] Trynna break through these four walls (break through these four walls) Just lying on my bed (Just lying, just lying on my bed yeah. Just lying on my bed) You can't miss what you never had (Miss what you never had) But you can envy it instead (hoo you can envy it instead, yeah you can envy it instead oh ho) I guess it's easier to commit to a dream Cause I'm much more afraid to believe in us committing I'll be the second to admit it Coz when it comes to you I'm so indecisive These are the consequences You will never get what you want Until you make that decision That what you want is what you're gonna get Sounds simple doesn't it No matter the distance My simplicity has become my complexity [Outro: Dew] Undecided and yet my mind has already been made up Ideas flowing and emotions running wild Inconsistent and yet in a jumbled sort of sequence These are the frustrated expressions Of a patched heart afraid to scar over forever Forgive me Though I have everything to give I have nothing left to hold Now I am running from the walls that once kept me safe They crash down around me Yet the hit the ground so softly Afraid and yet facing you I am brave Look into my eyes and tell me what you've tried to understand Confusion hurt and endless heartache The beginning was almost as sweet to come s it was to end No doubt in my mind But so much disbelief at your indifference Here I stand I have fallen and but I will rise taller than before Because no promises could ever convince me that there was ever truth amidst this all Broken but not tamed Ruthless is life And yet in all of the noise I find solace as I find myself alone
