Glow In The Dark (Single 2021)

Текст песни WizKid and Skepta - Glow In The Dark (Single 2021)

One time, one time

I knew what it was to be black
Way before I was on the GQ cover
How you gonna question me about colour?
What you know about Nelson Mandela?
Man, I get anti as ever
Yeah, I can do serious, I can do mean
Tell a supremacist that I'm supreme
Oh, everybody's woke now
Guess I'm just lost in a dream
But still, I'm predicting the future
I said this is how shit would go
The streets at an all-time high
The government at an all-time low
Politicians tryna get tickets to come to the shows
I shake hands with a long arm, never get close
Can't see me, I stay ghost
Man, I move like cigarette smoke

We've been growing apart
Been through the wars and I can show you the scars
Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard
They should've told you that I glow in the dark

We've been growing apart
Been through the wars and I can show you the scars
Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard
They should've told you that I glow in the dark
Oh yeah

They would love to see me on a pushbike pedaling scores
18 pound 40, I was accepting shorts
Fast forward, see me on TV collecting awards
One night with the gang
Now she can't understand
Why she used to hang around with them eediat man
I Nintendo Switch it, fam, I got the game in my hands
I'm a different species
Summertime, got a new swag for the beaches
Look in my wardrobe and it's all reference pieces
You should see how the price goes up as the money increases
I don't chill with them
'Cause I can't deal with the disheartening speeches
When I say I'm out, then I mean it, hm

We've been growing apart
Been through the wars and I can show you the scars
Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard
They should've told you that I glow in the dark

We've been growing apart
Been through the wars and I can show you the scars
Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard
They should've told you that I glow in the dark
Oh yeah

I can be my own worst enemy
But I gotta be my own best friend
I need to take the advice I been giving to them
Man, are on a low frequency
I can't see them again
I'm on a high vibration, feeling blessed, grateful
Them man are thirsty, need hydration
Please don't compare me to them, that's a big violation
Man, I got no direction and it's showing
See how the game can trick you without you even knowing
We're livin' in the dark but I keep on glowing
My mum gave me the seeds I'm sowing
My dad gave me the tools
And the water to keep them growing
So when they tell us to go home
Fam, I know where I'm going

We've been growing apart
Been through the wars and I can show you the scars
Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard
They should've told you that I glow in the dark

We've been growing apart
Been through the wars and I can show you the scars
Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard
They should've told you that I glow in the dark
Oh yeah
