[Intro: Little Simz]

Enter the void

En-en-enter the void

En-en-enter the void

En-en-enter the void


[Verse 1: Little Simz & Ryan Nile]

Enter the void (void)

It starts with a young boy

Walking on the land where they turn you down

If you're trying to start to amp and make noise

(What happened to your light?)

Where you gotta make the entertainment for yourself

'Cause there ain't nuttin to enjoy

Only joy was conveyed through his voice

Little nigga wasn't trying be employed, nope, nope

Had dreams as bigger than dreams (dreams)

Had a heart full of gold that was bigger than me (me)

Little Jimmy didn't care for no enemies (enemies)

Listening to 2Pac sipping Hennessy (Hennessy)

Didn't really see the point to get a degree

But, daddy would disagree

Little Jimmy was a child of three (three)

Mummy saying "Look at this child in me" (me)

This that shit that makes you wanna leave (leave)

Jimmy was a smiler (smiler)

Through the pain and darkness

It wouldn't matter, no

Cos he'd always be smilin' (smilin')

Golden child is so profound

And was broken now

Older now, not golden now

And only doubting himself

Now playing round with his health

All his people are now gone, well they're either dead or in jail (jail)

This that shit that made him wonder if he was living in hell (hell)

Thinking "How can this the plan, when I gave my heart to world?" (world)

All I wanted was love

And now my life is a fail

Oh well (oh well, oh well, oh well, oh well)

Oh well (oh well, oh well, oh well)

[Chorus: Ryan Nile & Little Simz]

What happened to your light?

What happened to your light?

Funny how it changed, ain't it funny how it changed?

Funny how it changed, ain't it funny?

Enter the void

En-En-Enter the void

Yo, en-en


[Verse 2: Little Simz]

Well, Little Jimmy had a little jimmy (little jimmy)

Now this is where its getting sticky

Baby mummy ain't ready to be a mummy

Well, I've got my baby and he's coming with me

And he go wherever I go (go)

He know whoever I know (know)

Shit was all good in our young days

But its changed now 'cause we've grown, oh (oh)

Jimmy looking back and he thinking how did it happen

One minute he at the top and another he back to trappin'

Man this ain't not good going back to black (black)

Singing didn't work so its back to rap (rap)

Me and you that's back-to-back (back)

Never tell a lie when I gas the track (bitch)

And that's petrol all in your face (face)

Now he's taking hits the face (face)

'Cause that green it won't go to waste (waste)

Clearly he don't care about no light

He's in a dark place (dark place)

Ain't no smile on Jimmy's face

That shit be awkward and plain (plain)

No more, hopes and dreams

He's just bumming round an estate (estate)

At 40 years of age

Oh well (oh well, oh well, oh well, oh well)

Oh well (oh well, oh well, oh well)


[Chorus 2: Ryan Nile]

What happened to your light?

What happened to your light?

Light


[Verse 3: Little Simz]

We're going to get into the mind of Jimmy

I control the time, it won't change the past

Wrote the sign when I quote the lines

And these great minds that ain't made for us

You can see that I'd pray for us

If I knew how to break out

Out of the system that just be slaving us

They say they want them frowns

Well fuck that because you won't be changing us

You better your shit won't last

Been too long and it's gone too far

And I don't know where I'm heading

Fuck! I don't know where I'm heading

They say that the code is embedded

In our souls until we have fed it

All the roots you know that I lead it

When I speak you know that it's

Light

[Chorus 3: Ryan Nile & Little Simz]

(Little Jimmy)

(It starts with a young boy)

What happened to your light?

What happened to your light?

(It starts with a young boy)

Enter the void

En-en-enter the void

What happened to your light?

What happened to your light?

(It starts with a young boy)

To your
