Knaan - Gold In Timbuktu lyrics
rate meWhen I am old and lonelyWould you still be there for me'Cause now I have all of my strengthAnd you have all your beautyWhen you're gold in TimbuktuWill I still come look for youLet's swim in the deep endMake it warm that we canFor you, for meBuried in the deep endLife is one big weekendYouth! One day you have it and thenPoof! It's gone with the windIt's a kin to the endAnd no matter how you fight itHow you light it, how you write itTime is the pen out of inkPoof, and I'm a living proofI used to have it all young and uncoofThese days I hear on everything on delay'Cause I wear an air piece just to hear what he sayWhen my son visit, I don't know why I get lividMaybe I'm jealous of his ageMy memories vivid I was just like himYoung like him, Had a mouth on me a tongue like himBut now I'm feeling much weakerClosest thing to my heart is a mandatory gripperAnd my eyes ain't what they used to be eitherBut here's me singing promise from la VitaWhen I am old and lonelyWould you still be there for me'Cause now I have all of my strengthAnd you have all your beautyWhen you're gold in TimbuktuWill I still come look for youLet's swim in the deep endMake it warm that we canFor you, for meBuried in the deep endLife is one big weekendPush! One day you comin' and thenWoosh! You'd be surprised how easy isTo be enticed and feasting lifeWithout the least of dreams sufficeSo watch it fly fear to flightSo I'm busy chasing a decent sizeTush! and I ain't never been a wussHave more arms than an octopusThose days I never thought of old ageI never thought I'd see the hair in my nose grayBut life goes on how ironicIf I could do it over I'd probably smoke chronicBut still follow the footsteps of prophet MohammedI probably turn every lie that I told honestI be an equal terrorist I give the middle finger to my therapistAnd flush my sedatestI'll have a baby with a feminist and name him sexistLife's a contradiction on my check listWhen I am old and lonelyWould you still be there for me'Cause now I have all of my strengthAnd you have all your beautyWhen you're gold in TimbuktuWill I still come look for youLet's swim in the deep endMake it warm that we canFor you, for meBuried in the deep endLife is one big weekend
