Never Felt

When you gonna stop being lost though

When are you gonna find your place

Why you gotta act like concrete

You just gotta pave your way

You aint gotta be a saber tooth, say the truth

You’re an elephant in every room

Your invisibility is hard to miss

And if you’d like to wander into my life

Please do cos it’s top of my list

I can sleep all night but there’s no quick fix so…

When are you gonna stop being lost though

When are you gonna find your place

Why you gotta act so grumpy

You just gotta change your face

You aint gotta be a dinosaur, find your door

Sent that flare up then I got help

Pain kept flaring up I’m like well

Never quite felt like anyone else

Anyone else

With all the money in the world

I can’t buy a presence I’ve never felt

Never felt

Never felt

Never felt

Never felt

Never felt

Never felt

When you gonna stop being lost though

When are you gonna find your place

Why you gotta act like concrete

You just gotta pave your way

You aint gotta be a saber tooth, say the truth

My dads got dread locked in his dreadlocks

When I think about how about my dread locks

I tread soft

Don’t wanna disturb the history

Twisted truths

Compact tales stemming from distant roots

Too intertwined to even try and sift your fingers through

I wonder if removed

This parcel weighs so heavy on his head

There’s a lifetime in those dreads

Willow light draping through that shoulder shade

Dealing with old wounds and cuts around the shoulder blades

Aged on them nice though

Black don’t crack

Same goes for his emotional state

Locked in the cage reinstated

Every time he wears a hoody or gets caught in Holland Park

You aint trimming my hedges can you please stay off the grass

This isn’t any grass

You look like Bob Marley

Sticks and Stones heal but it’s your words that will harm me

Its all the words that stung

We curse that tongue

Reverse that grunge

The first black punk

The first black punk

I said the words that stung

We curse that tongue

Reverse that grunge

The first black

I’m never felt it just you by my side

I wanna feel it

Come and see me this weekend

I never felt it, just you by my side

You’ve got my number

So call my, call my phone
