Lyrics
My heart's out West but my feet are down South
Need a break from this town
Too many butterflies floating around
The Thames is full of sharks
They're tryna tear us apart
Am I good enough?
Why did you do that?
Why don't I love myself?
Where is the trust at?
My heart's out West but my feet are down South
There's a pain in this town
A misty history floating around
Forever tryna come in first
You'll end up coming up last
Am I good enough?
Why did you do that?
Why don't I love myself?
Where is the trust at?
Don't end up
Falling through the cracks in the pavement
Don't end up
Falling through the cracks in the pavement
This town has given me so much life
More than I can explain
The people that know they know
And you all know your names
But this town ways heavy on my mind
Cause the more that the people grind
The more that they're shot down
and the barrel doesn't make no sound no
Knock, knock, knock, who's that?!
Anxiety is at the door
He's whispering through the keyhole
Gimme, gimme, more, more, more, more oh
But I don't wanna die a nervous wreck
No I don't wanna lose my self respect
Just wanna do it for myself and my people
