A Gift & A Curse

Текст песни Devlin - A Gift & A Curse

You wanna see the best of me
You gotta see the worst of me
You wanna see the gift of me
You gotta see the curse of me
You gotta see the world I've seen
You gotta see the dreams I've dreamed
Now nobody sees me at all
The rise and fall

You'd have to see what I've seen
Be what I've been to achieve these dreams
Be a teen on a UK street
Scared for your life getting chased through the night
Now the world's getting ruthless
You gotta ride out, everybody's on a hype
And the manner's gone stupid, so have I
All you ever do is bring me down
I'm living up to the name that you gave me tonight
And now I'm signed
It's like everybody wants me to live a lie
I ain't chirpy, I'm dirty, I come from a place
Where the good die young and the bad die when it's their time
This ain't a screw face
Just know that my head's inside two worlds, so my new name's Two-Face

You wanna see the best of me
You gotta see the worst of me
You wanna see the gift of me
You gotta see the curse of me
You gotta see the world I've seen
You gotta see the dreams I've dreamed
Now nobody sees me at all
The rise and fall

I've showed you the gift, let me show you the curse
You get big then vultures emerge
And so-called friends try poling your bird
Once again I gotta roll on the curb
And I try live my life with morals
But find myself in many more quarrels
So I seek salvation in words
I'm Emily Rose, I got a gift and a curse
The reason I flourished and grew
Might be the reason I feel malnourished and blue
I felt the pain of the world
My arteries run to the chambers of hell
All I know is from a young man's view
I've seen some things that were made in this world
Sometimes the grass is greener
Sometimes it's quite hard to tell

You wanna see the best of me
You gotta see the worst of me
You wanna see the gift of me
You gotta see the curse of me
You gotta see the world I've seen
You gotta see the dreams I've dreamed
Now nobody sees me at all
The rise and fall

Head in the sky but my hands on the floor
Heart that does not know surprises in store

You gotta see the world I've seen
You gotta see the dreams I've dreamed
Now nobody sees me at all
The rise and fall
