Текст песни Messiah Complex (feat. Lowkey) - Brotherhood , Lowkey

70 years ago you wouldn't necessarily know
What the fuck is going on in the Middle East, you wouldn't know
If you've got that much information
And that much bad and sad and sorrow all around the world
That you have at the end of your finger tips
How are you supposed to live a happy, unscathed life

I try my best
I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest
Try my best
I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest

Imagine life if I just cared about myself
Only cared if I could sell
I'd probably have a fair amount of wealth
And significantly less stress
But that ain't me
Just hope they listen when I express
Look, I've never been the best dressed
Fuck drip, focused on the next step
Gotta get this bar off my chest
Guess it's bench press
With all this cortisol
God could've caught a soul
Humans weren't designed for all this stress yet
It's all we know
Full of advice that I should take too
Gotta live my life, there ain't a take 2
I should be doing more but I need cake too
Could've took the safe route
Still want that apartment with the bay view
Trying to find a balance
Between my happiness and the planet
Trust, if I can make it happen I will
My mind is manic and still
I could never not care
Know I can do better
Even though I'm not there
Always try my best

I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest
Try my best
I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest

I ain't perfect look I'm far from it
I've just had enough of always acting like we aren't bothered
Harsh topics everyday leave your heart rotten
I just couldn't bear to never chase what my heart wanted
Been some years and though we're yet to see a move that left a mark
Or make a large profit
Or make it chart topping
I'm making music, not for groupies though, this fame is a drug
I've seen so many lose their way and leave their face in the dust
Overthinking as I'm rolling up
I'm old enough to know my age is a plus
So many lost and never got to see this life as a gift
That's why I'm skiving these shifts that couldn't pay me enough
See, since a young'un I've been honing my craft
And I ain't ever letting go it's like I'm 50 and his trolling of Ja
Been broken apart
Older now I'm opiate-calm
Some people always trying to prove that their cojones are large

I try my best
I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest
Try my best
I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest

In this journey of life, twists and turns
I see turbulent times as gifts to learn
I see murderous minds like Mr Burns
I see verbalists grind but miss their turn
Still searching to find their wings to earn
The ill serve as a sign the system hurts
We spill words on the lines, it's literature
If mills circle your mind, it's this you yearn
Broken silence
There's no denying we got flaws
Some wanna hurt others, some are trying to stop wars
Some sell weapons that kill, some mop floors
Some live a horror film, some are eating popcorn
Met those that see farthest
Set goals, meet targets
Vexed souls seen carnage
Kept so clean hearted
Success, such stress
Right for me to fear that
All I know, Brotherhood inspired me from years back

I try my best
I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest
Try my best
I ain't perfect
Although I'm blessed
The wicked never do so
How can I rest
It's not easy living with this constant feeling in my chest

I ain't perfect
I ain't perfect
I ain't perfect
Hoo ooh
