taking things for granted - joy oladokun lyrics

[verse 1]
in the school yard when i was a kid
i gave everyone my address
said come on over
and it turns out that n0body did
swimming alone’s how i spent my eighth birthday
and sometimes it feels like i never got out of the water
i never got out of the water even though i did

[chorus]
sometimes it feels like everyone’s looking at the surface
and it’s not happening on purpose
but they’re taking things for granted again

[verse 2]
i’m learning to write my wrongs
and speak up when i feel like i’m not being listened to
but some story entered my bones
when i was far too young to know not to listen to
what people say
’cause everybody’s feeling the pressure
of a world that keeps trying to end us everyday

[chorus]
sometimes it feels like everyone’s looking at the surface
and it’s not happening on purpose
but they’re taking things for granted again
[outro]
sometimes it feels like i never got out of the water
i never got out of the water even though i did
sometimes it feels like i never got out of the water
i never got out of the water even though i did
sometimes it feels like this world’s got nothing for me
getting blank stares in return for what i give
sometimes i feel a thousand eyes looking down at the surface
and they’re watching me drown on purpose
oh, they’re taking things for granted again
