switch out the light - the lafontaines lyrics
(chorus: jamie)
i know that you would rather die than hide
don’t save me from the fight
don’t bury me alive
i know you waited half a life to try
so who am i to find a way across the line
(verse 1: kerr)
they tell me that i’m nothing; i’m walked over and p-ssed on
15 minutes later, these imitators don’t last long
i don’t catch a wave, or deal with the skulduggery
i am the result of dealing my own currency
caution, when fake love is often
bury me with nothing but pride inside my coffin
feel it coming, i swore it when i was young
like a shot from a loaded gun, i be the one – like
anybody, who anybody can see the p-ssion
i went running wild, and doubled down on the action
my people in the city, i can raise them like the roof
all that trouble in my youth, made me fire in the booth
now that hunger in my stomach, got them baited when i roar
they wouldn’t let me in the gate, so i tunnel through the floor
now they carry me with harmony and caution on the side
caution on the side
(chorus: jamie)
i know that you would rather die than hide
don’t save me from the fight
don’t bury me alive
i know you waited half a life to try
so who am i to find a way across the line
(verse 2: kerr)
give me that symphony songbird, go sing me that
mirror that, all of my dark days, get rid of that
show me light, show me the motion when i be moving right
black or white, f-ck is the difference when you switch out the light?
know i’m right, closed off vivarium
black mirror watch, like tank life aquarium
the border closed, i don’t know what we achieved
we’ve been k!lling overseas, now its time to f-ckin’ leave?
like hold back, give us a minute i don’t condone that
all around the map, i don’t think we really own that
if you want a tight circle you can move in a huddle
but in the city where i’m from, that will get you in trouble
with some bigotry, hickory d-ckory dock symmetry
say the wrong thing with the wrong colours so flippantly
literally, there’s division in the west, there’s division in the east
we just need some f-ckin’ peace like – hold up
(verse 3: kerr)
i don’t wanna f-ckin’ preach, but i’m coming from the streets
i’ve been raised up off that tonic, that’s the belly of the beast
steady living in the shire, like it got me on a hook
i got trouble on my mind, probably younger than i look
look, pray i bring that fire or at least a little heat
i promise that when i fail i’ll get back up on my feet
i got shelter from the rain, when i’m running with the troops
i would rather die now than be cut off from my roots
(chorus: jamie)
i know that you would rather die than hide
don’t save me from the fight
don’t bury me alive
i know you waited half a life to try
so who am i to find a way across the line
