Day By Day

Wake up dreaming middle of the night
Pick up the pen in hope that I write
Just one lyric to say how I feel
Identity crisis hot on my heels
Always felt inferior
Smash that window to my interior
Back in one-nine I thought that I knew
But I didn't have a clue, now I see clearer
Don't make horrorcore don't make grime
Don't make rap just because words rhyme
Didn't make this for the shows or the roads
It's for those who know that they're out of time
Still fearing death by lung cancer
Agoraphobic ain't taking a chancer
Stare at the wall holding my phone
Getting pissed off coz my best friends never answer

I like holding hands
Crack it open my emotions canned
I've made a whole lot of stupid decisions
Now I treat fivers like I treat ten grand
Shoulda stacked P's but I stacked box logos
Looking for the one to give my last rolo
Just like Skepta I'm still getting thoughts
Of my girl up and down on her ex like a yo-yo
Guess who's puking again
Thought I was cured I was fluking again
There's a monster inside nowhere you can hide
And I think he's killed off the human again
Stay down like chopping some timber
Holding a mic, don't let the fun linger
Personality splits onstage
They're wiping away the tears with gunfingers

I threw out the black ski mask
And I don't spit like I got three gats
I'd rather write a Pokèmon bar
Get a manicure done and go and cop three cats
I don't give a damn about views
Cherish the memories I'll never lose
Did I wish too hard on a shooting star?
Do they secretly think that my head's lost screws?
I never move boukie
I am who I am and I'd rather be me than you
And you don't have to choose me
All that I want is life to go smoothly
And I might lose fans for this
But I couldn't give a damn it's fine for me
I don't think I've ever been happy
'Til I realised I was non-binary

I ran out of stories and went through hell to be here today
But in the end I don't think it matters
The world's still turning day by day
I ran out of stories and went through hell to be here today
But in the end I don't think it matters
The world's still turning day by day

The world's still turning day by day
