Take It Slow (feat. Loyle Carner)

I'd like to protect mine You like empty threats and coalitions Demon time Rum and lime and this little spritzer Keep in my mind I was fine but this little hiccup's Got me lying in my bed Meeting 4am again More lines of speak to me Let me in I'm good I'm fine Think I've got this friend Yeah stress makes for better tales But sex makes for better sales A slave to this very world From little girls to grown women From they won't let us inside Now we own the buildings This isn't a manifestation of my imagination This was written long before my parents got aqua tinted So I'm stating What God has put in plan Let no man Take that vision And Take your cans And make them cannots I've got the gems right in my hands I'm feeling just like Thanos I'll put dent up on your van If you try cross my lane A little splash up in a puddle You can't ride this wave We're trying to break a fucking system And effect some change And you want spend change Imma switch that pain Cause I can't feel that pain So take it slow For me And I'll be there For you Hold you down I can Take it slow Take it slow Just take it slow For me And I'll be there For you Hold you down I can Take it slow Just take it slow I'll take it slow Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food Alright Reputation Reputation Reputation Yo I lost my reputation And at the same time Found my inspiration In the silence of the basement Patient Because I'm good enough I see these people on the bus Heads down Instead of looking up Swiping for the love Views and likes Comments like a drug I had to turn around And pull that plug How can I fucking win Comparing others to my kin Comments on the colour of my skin Got me flicking through A couple say that I'm the king A couple say that I got this double chin It's fucking grim I spend the next hour Looking in the mirror Wonder if I'm really getting bigger My hair thinner Heart breaking as I grow a little bitter Getting jealous to the glamor and the glitter But it's not real life Close my eyes Had to take my time Realise that the life I find Is not the life online Locked my phone off And walked outside And looked up to the sun that shines So take it slow For me And I'll be there For you Hold you down I can Take it slow Take it slow Just take it slow For me And I'll be there For you Hold you down I can Take it slow Just take it slow I'll take it slow Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food Hands up bless man Mek I come through You're a badman calm down Thought become food
