Speed Of Plight Lyrics By Loyle Carner
[Intro]
Check, ayy
[Chorus]
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
[Verse 1]
Missed another birthday, was shellin’ overseas
Photo of police, on my road, belly of the beast
I’ve been hidden in the east, so I’m on my P’s and my Q’s
Trying to find a piece of my youth
‘Cause on them late nights, we be gettin’ bruised
The people wanna dance, they don’t wanna hear the truth (Check)
They got no lovin’ for no niggas on the news
Sorry, Alfa, but they won’t listen if I sing the blues
Like a blood
Ayo, we learned nothing from the crud
We just lost a lot of figures in the city that we love
Yo, it’s bugged ’cause they be lookin’ to above
And I’m like, “Bruv, look at what’s in front of you
Look at what love can do, look how they corrupted you”
Tryin’ to put trust in any other ‘stead of trusting you
[Chorus]
Uh, the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Shit, uh, ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Check, ayy, ayy, uh, is it only me?
[Verse 2]
Said, I’ve still got this bad taste in my mouth
Still the most hated face in the south
I’m still trying to find a grace in my house
But I made it out, pickin’ up the pace and I bounce
Aye, so shut your fuckin’ mouth
Yo, I was living in a fuckin’ drought
It’s a wonder not one of us fuckin’ drowned
Yo, they were walking past, but wouldn’t help a brother out
So I had to stack my money and make my mother proud
Nobody does it, so I did it by myself, aye
I see my brother’s ashes sitting on my shelf, trust
Collecting dust, but, yo, I didn’t scream for help
Saw the championship running, I was coming for the belt
Yo, I want it all, I want the money and the fame
The funny and the pain, want the summer and the rain
Yo, I want it all until there’s nothing that remains
If I didn’t make the currency, at least I made a change
[Outro]
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me, check
Ayy, uh, is it only me?
Said, uh, the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Shit, uh, ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can’t tell if it be only me
Check, ayy, uh, is it only me?
