Santogold - L.E.S. Artistes lyrics

rate me

What I'm searching for to tell it straight, I'm tryin' to build a wall

Walking by myself down avenues that reek of time to kill

If you see me, keep going, be a passby-waver

Build me up, bring me down, just leave me out, you name-dropper

Stop tryin' to catch my eye, I see you good, you forced-faker

Just make it easy, you're my enemy, you fast talker

I can say I hope it will be worth what I give up

If I could stand up mean for all the things that I believe

(x2)

What am I here for? I left my home to disappear is all

I'm here for myself, not to know you, I don't need no one else

Fit in so good the hope is that you cannot see me later

You don't know me, I am an introvert, an excavator

I'm duckin' out for now, a face in dodgy elevators

Creep up and suddenly I found myself an innovator

I can say I hope it will be worth what I give up

If I could stand up mean for all the things that I believe

(x2)

Change, change, change, I want to get up out of my skin

Tell you what, if I can shake it I'm 'a make this something worth dreaming of

I can say I hope it will be worth what I give up

If I could stand up mean for all the things that I believe

(x4 mix)
