Текст песни The Chase (feat. Courtney Bennett) - Brotherhood , Courtney Bennett

So much of our behaviour is a result of what we don't know about ourselves
We are motivated, we are trying to fulfil ourselves
Because there is that biochemical imperative to get more, to survive
Which as an addict, I experienced and have experienced in extreme
Once I got rid of drugs, I got obsessed with sex
Once I got a hand on sex
I started being obsessed with what other people think of me
Power, fame and money
And what I'm continually recognising is
None of these things can be fulfilling
If you're not connected to who you really are

No trim, spots on my face
No drip
See, I don't need tops with a name like Gucci
Me I'm still Gucci
Never be boujie
Never put rocks in my chain
I just do what I love, don't watch what I make
Everybody gets lost in the chase
I ain't trying to make money fast
Gotta make money last
Already know the hare flopped in that race
I'd die before I spend my life locked in a cage
I take risks like cryptos
You take risks for some sick clothes
Respect if you washed that and got a crib though
Wanna see you win so think bro
Fuck the latest trends
Even if I'm making M's, I ain't made like them
I was anti, chilling with the clique
Best thing I ever did was make new friends so
Fuck all them Instagram quotes
The things that man post
I swear this shit's a panto
You'd think every man's rich
Every girl's thick, wide hips
Big lips to match those but
I don't care if he's got a Benz
I don't care if she just looks good like a lot of men
Even though I'm not a 10
Most people I know are unhappy so why would I copy them
Realness
Just grateful for no illness
Still need fulfilment
You ain't gonna find that 'cause it needs building
Only one life, that doesn't end with children
Trust me
Had enough of this fuckery
I'm just trying to visit more countries
Memories over money like Kama said
Flights, catching them
Why

I don't wanna get wrapped up in the chase
Chasing money, chasing women, chasing fame
I don't wanna get caught up in the chase
I don't wanna watch my life fade away
'Cause time keeps rolling on
Rolling on
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling
And I'm just holding on
I'm just holding on
I don't wanna watch my life fade away

Look
Yeah
The bro's on our own, that's grafting
As time goes the emotions darken
'Cause the road's taking its toll like Dartford
Prayed on my own like save me a go when it's my turn
Nobody answered
Face to the sky
No rain in my eyes
Just hope that I'm holding regardless
How many years
How many times have I heard gas
Hard to know who's not snide
How many promises kept
How many want us to be bodying sets
How many shot lies
Now we're ready to be top like Klopp's side
No kids, hope we show kids what is not right
Always on the chase like Bradley
Man are never like what they claim to be online
I've seen change in my district
Everybody takes on weight to be shifted
I researched the ways of the system
Gotta relearn 'cause it pays to be different
Now I ain't got age on my side
Gotta face facts, man I've got a wage to provide
Gotta make me a business
Or I'm gonna be another that's saving, not making the pictures
This years mad
Lockdown had me searching 'round for more lakes and woods
Makes a change to be wary of insects
All I ever see is all these snakes in hoods
Cha
You even mention race, you'll get vacant looks
Can't wait, till it's changed for good
I tell peeps I

I don't wanna get wrapped up in the chase
Chasing money, chasing women, chasing fame
I don't wanna get caught up in the chase
I don't wanna watch my life fade away
'Cause time keeps rolling on
Rolling on
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling
And I'm just holding on
I'm just holding on
I don't wanna watch my life fade away

This is the thing
When you get the things your culture tells you
You should be doing and you experience them
Now you know
Now you know you can stop chasing the carrot
'Cause you've had a bite out of it
And you're like 'hold on a minute, this is bullshit'

I don't wanna get wrapped up in the chase
Chasing money, chasing women, chasing fame
I don't wanna get caught up in the chase
I don't wanna watch my life fade away
'Cause time keeps rolling on
Rolling on
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling
And I'm just holding on
I'm just holding on
I don't wanna watch my life fade away
