Young Fathers - Low lyrics

rate me

Hmm, did I see you planting seeds in the forest?

Is it for the green of the dollars?

Now don't go telling me it's for the needs of the poorest

Now I'mma take a shit in your palace

I just want to make life easy on your eyes

You just want to ease me with your lies

Last from the convoy playing with the old toys

Instant tomorrows, handcrafted sorrows

All-star bravery, imaginary jargon

Cryptic by business, I'll see you in hell

Sipping on a quick fix elasticated dimwit

Sucking on a thumb, marching to an old hit

Tiger in an envelope, paper boy, puppet rope

Scratchings on a blank tape, stealth like utopia

Marriage in a gas mask, little girl, black clad

Drugs for the lawyer 'cause we appreciate

Cut to the chase, twelve grand in the case

Testing out the cannons the evidence is damning

You lied to me, me, me

You lied to me, me, me

You lied to me, me, me

TV news said keep you head above water

My willingness CHOCKED IN MY SLEEP

Tell-Tale shoes won't get me home in an hour

The further I go I COULD FREEZE

The shine is truly faded relieved of his duties

Behind the veil is fury, unadmittent optimist

Undercover pessimist

Baby showered in my father's sins

But I was born to be the better part of him

That was always on the checklist

Take my humanity, end up like a mannequin

Thinking like a charlatan was easy, now it's challenging

So take my humanity, end up like a mannequin

Thinking like a charlatan was easy, now it's challenging

Time to get going

City's getting low

Time to get going

City's getting low

Time to get going

City's getting low

Time to get going

City's getting low
