21 Grams (feat. Hilltop Hoods)

Did you ever believe

Yeah, this life owes you more than you have?

Try and take it from me

No, oh, got nothing to lose but twenty-one grams

Just let it all go, don't fuck with your man

When the weight of a soul, just twenty-one grams

Just let it all go, send love to your fam

When the weight of a soul, just twenty-one grams

It ain't but twenty-one grams, ain't but twenty-one grams

Just twenty-one grams

One life here to foster, no time here to squander

Grew wiser and stronger, yet still tryna conjure

A little ray of sunshine in a quagmire

For the prize on offer, we divide and we conquer

If I fight any longer, I'ma start looking like all my rivals

And in time, will give rise to a monster

Gotta be more to life than sort of like every morning rise and shine

I wanna see all the lights on tour life then immortalised in time

What's the weight of a human soul?

Does it change if bruised or old?

Famine or fame, man it's all the same

That's what you stand to gain verse lose it all

All that glitters ain't gold

What's royal is loyalty shown to your fam

What's the weight of your soul?

They say it ain't nothing but twenty-one grams

Slow dance with the devil

He asked for my signature written in blood

I won't bow to that level, know I can do better in death

Hope my spirits have risen above

But yo, will I be judged on the good and bad that I've done in my life?

When I'm writing these songs, I'm righting my wrongs

That's how it feels with each word I recite

Like I'm earning the right to be making amends

Apologies given to all of my friends

If ever I dissed you, know that I didn't mean to offend

Did you ever believe

Yeah, this life owes you more than you have?

Try and take it from me

No, oh, got nothing to lose but twenty-one grams

Just let it all go, don't fuck with your man

When the weight of a soul, just twenty-one grams

Just let it all go, send love to your fam

When the weight of a soul, just twenty-one grams

It ain't but twenty-one grams, ain't but twenty-one grams

Just twenty-one grams

And I, can't help but feel a little blessed

Like yes, I'ma do it better than the best I can

I'ma get it in with whatever I have like damn by chance

Do you wanna take my hand, do you wanna dance in the middle of the street like me?

Side-step it to the left of the center

'Cause I've never been a fan of that right wing bullshit and negativity

Check it out, I don't mean to preach, this is not an anthem

Tuka's on a rant, let me pen a bit of peace, fuck a hand gun

If your head's buried in the sand

Then understand I'm just tryna get a bit of free in me

Get a bit of free in me

Dive deep, sight-seeing the earth on Cloud Nine

Dreaming, free as a bird

Try to focus when the scenery blurs

Bringing life into this world

Like's bringing a grain of sand to the beach, but

Thing is that this little girl's like ten point five grams of you, me, love

Everything from our past is passed on

It survives, it's alive in our daughter

You ever think there's a link when we pass on?

She might have passed on five and a quarter

Immortalized, I thought that I had everything I wanted

It all was lies, there's more to life, couldn't put my finger on it

My daughter's eyes, I see my parents and your parents, too

Apparent when you stare into her eyes

And she got a pair like you

Did you ever believe

Yeah, this life owes you more than you have?

Try and take it from me

No, oh, got nothing to lose but twenty-one grams

Just let it all go, don't fuck with your man

When the weight of a soul, just twenty-one grams

Just let it all go, send love to your fam

When the weight of a soul, just twenty-one grams

It ain't but twenty-one grams, ain't but twenty-one grams

Just twenty-one grams

Just twenty-one grams

Did you ever believe

Yeah, this life owes you more than you have?

Try and take it from me

No, oh, got nothing to lose but twenty-one grams
