[Verse 1: Jeshi]
It takes two of us just to start a war
Two to tango, just a little more
All you really wanted was awards and a little whiskey chase when you're bored
Live by it, die by that sword
Toxins pouring out of my pores
Try and get what we all yearning for just to yearn some more and get a higher score
In this game of life, yeah, who's losing?
State of confusion, everything lucid
Texts on the chat, "What's everyone doing?"
Should've stayed home, now everything's ruined
Everything's bettеr with cash and real ones that love you and don't need anything back
Digging in a bag and it's dark in thе back
In the mirror eyes look like I got cataracts
Too much turbulence on my plane
Life was dull, need a better grade
Way too much to assimilate
Say I always play the victim game
Woe is me, overstay
Supposed to leave
Tescos, out getting groceries
Fancy a little bit debauchery
And some broken beats
Just another night where the tower blocks so high
Single mum with a pushchair roll by me
Spraying the weed, rotting the mind
Let me show you what insane looks like
We all a little broke inside
Pose and smile, sunny side up
Only booze gonna runneth my cup
Throwin' a strop, oh, what have I done?
[Chorus: LEILAH]
Days go by, I'm in a loop
Fail or fly, time in a loop
Day and night, I'm in a loop
Fade or try, time in a loop
[Verse 2: Jeshi & LEILAH]
I miss mum's calls every single day
Caught up in the game that'll never go my way
Damaging myself, can't help it
The little things you say to me always penetrate
Don't feel good enough, still say I'm great
Six seat sprinter van flying through the rain
Rich or broke, still dying, I'm the same
Bad game of tennis, how the thoughts ricochet
Round and round I feel the carousel go
Life just a rerun of the same show
Same lukewarm tin of beer, same phone
That always die when I gotta find my way home
My way back to you cracked my tooth
Bit off way more than I ever could chew
Rewrite everything I thought that I knew
Throwin' a strop, oh, what should I do?
Do, do not disturb, ways that I think
Underneath tower blocks where it all begins
Underneath your body to forget everything
Get everything made in this world made of sin
We all searching for perfect
Long time ago when I found out it don't exist
All I think about is this
Cut the tension with a knife, all the air getting thin (A loop, a loop)
Yeah, another day where the grey clouds gotta cry
Karma's a thing, know that bitch don't like me (Don't like me)
Goin' in loops, everything's like
Same thing, every single day of my life (I'm in a loop)
We all a little broke inside
Pose and smile till you had enough
Nothing new here under this Sun
Another day gone, now, what have I done? (I'm in a loop)
[Chorus: LEILAH]
Days go by, I'm in a loop
Fail or fly, time in a loop
Day and night, I'm in a loop
Fade or try, time in a loop
[Post-Chorus: LEILAH]
A loop
A loop, a loop, oh
Loop
[Outro: Jeshi & LEILAH]
New captions, new clothes
New baggage in your home
New somebody to hold
But, hold on, we ain't even cold
I'm stuck inside my phone with sweet nothings to resolve
Oh, I'm in a loop, oh, I'm a loop, oh
The world turns, bridges burn, I yearn and sit alone
Oh, I'm in a loop, oh, I'm a loop, oh
...feel it too
Can't be the one, all
