L.F.O. - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Sampha]

Cleared out my direction, went forward (You know), yeah

An unknown intersection, I'm floorin' (Yeah), stallin', stallin'

Nothin' ain't normal

Deadpan out here-here lookin' cautious

Have the lifespan of a mere mortal

But I can't spend it all bein' cordial

'Cause my nature is far from forceful

Ooh, but don't send me

'Cause I can go straight to that dark side if you tempt me

Screamin' "let go", screamin' "let go", but don't let me

I guess my mind's eye just went blind

And blind sight just took flight

I was reckless, I was flyin' high, oh

[Verse 2: George Riley]

Heavеn is so far away

Wrong becomes right evеry day

What you do, it's all the same

I play the game, I'm here to stay

I'm here to stay, here to stay

[Chorus: George Riley]

Knowin' there's nothin', there's somethin'

You had been movin' a different direction

I could have been somethin' to you

To you, to you, to you, to you, to you

[Verse 3: George Riley]

I have been changin' my opinion

I didn't mean to be ambiguous

Yes, I just like bein' different

That's my decision

Knowin' there's nothin', there's somethin'

You had been movin' a different direction

I could have been somethin'

I don't know if this will work out

But I keep it and I move it

And I hold on, and I let go

And it's over, I don't notice how I

Really could be somethin', but I'm

Changin', movin', losin', higher

I, no-no

[Chorus: George Riley]

Knowin' there's nothin', there's somethin'

'Cause you had been movin' a different direction

I could have been somethin' to you, to you

I could have been somethin', oh

[Bridge: Sampha, George Riley]

Can't freeze me out

I'm on the move and I see it now

Can't freeze me out

I'm on the move and I see it now (I'm seein' down)

Knowin' there's somethin'

Movin', direction

Direction, I could have been somethin'

[Outro: George Riley]

I'm so far out

Can't hear me shout

Too deep in now

I'll freeze you out

It feels good
