John Boyega - Single Version
I lost confidence
Stranger in the mirror
Road I'm on is blurry
When will it get clearer
I been falling down
Basement has a cellar
Old me isn't proud
All I seem to wear are frowns
I'm in the deep end
Cry out in a tweet
For some type of release
Mummy isn't pleased
Thoughts needs therapy
I don't know who I be
They told me life's a bitch
Well someone find the leash
Fashionably late
Fabric has a trace
Of tears I have just shed
I'm looking for a mate
No
Looking for a trace
Racking through my brain
Of recollections past
When I confidently said
I know I'm the one
Mission never done yeah
I'm top of the mountain, journey just begun
Know bout where I'm from
They thought I was dumb doe
You thought I was drowning
I'm surfing the flood
I know I'm the one
Mission never done yeah
I'm top of the mountain, journey just begun
Know bout where I'm from
They thought I was dumb doe
You thought I was drowning
I'm surfing the flood
I know I'm the one
Feeling insecure
Never felt this way before
Used to roll with the allure
Life lacks meaning, something more is needed
So I do not fall
Through the cracks of failure's skin
Sad faces, where's the grin
I don't like em, chuck em in the bin
Oh these memories
Of ancient reveries
Proper filling me with glee
Wonder how I can be
In a constant state of bliss
But I'm blending with the mist
It's that smell of defeat
See your soul, it doesn't come with kicks
How you know you alive if you don't bleed a little
You know the strongest people they face the hardest battles
So you got a couple scars
Better run to your mirror
Just to scream it very hard
Believe it
You know you're the one
Mission never done yeah
I'm top of the mountain, journey just begun
Know bout where I'm from
They thought I was dumb doe
You thought I was drowning
I'm surfing the flood
But
I know I'm the one
Mission never done yeah
I'm top of the mountain, journey just begun
Know bout where I'm from
They thought I was dumb doe
You thought I was drowning
I'm surfing the flood
Nah I know I'm the one
I was so lost, never found a reason
To go on, man I'mm feeling defeated
I broke the mirror
Shattered my confidence
Dangerous words in my head only perforated
That thought bubble of freedom
Had to spend time in mountains
Before I realised
I had the power
To move mountains
Whoa
Huh
Imma just get up and go
Sometimes move on your own
If it don't move me
Then I keep my energy
My only remedy
Imma just get up and go (Go!)
Sometimes move on your own (Own!)
If it don't move me
Then I keep my energy
My only remedy
Spitting that fire or singing a melody
That will echo out in years and for centuries
Message of hope all engraved in your memory
Powers always inside you to be what you're meant to be
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, bitch
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, switch
If I don't like it then I flip like a light switch
What you saying, wear a smile in a crisis
Don't need sauce coz I'm rolling with the spices
Huh
1, 2, 3, move
[Epic guitar solo]
