[Chorus: Kiera-Lorelle]

Cloudy Skies keep passing me by

That's why I feel alive without you

Cloudy skies keep passing me by

That's why I feel alive without you


[Verse One: Tim Ajayi]

Yeah, I think it's time I open up (yeah?)

I mean these days they already know enough (true)

Didn't think I'd ever come to know your love

Didn't think I'd ever have to hold a grudge

Didn't think I'd ever hold an L

Top of the world

Gap tooth getting love from the girls (that's right)

Known as a Role Model, moving like Slick Woods

Why's that?

Soon I'll be on the cover of Elle

I was feeling myself

And rightly so

Cos on the front line I would make United hold

And when it's game time I play full ninety bro

At least I used to, I broke the news they were gonna fly me home

Momma tryna find me dough

I was staying out late tryna find me hoes

3 bottles to the face they would buy me those (damn)

Then I post that pic because they like the pose (like the pose)

Snap snap velour Papi (aye)

Naija boy why you sippin on that Saki (aye)

White girl, calling a boy Daddy

White girl, calling a boy Daddy

She was calling me Zaddy (yeah)

Still it didn't sound right (nah)

She took it to heart

I'm just tryna get my pound right

Tryna do my town right (yeah)

Get my mind right

Last few years I've been living it in blind sight

This one's for the people on my side (people on my side)

Who kept my ship afloat

200K for class no pen for the notes

Open envelope see my scholarship on ropes (fuck)

Hanging on with the tip of my fingers

Started putting baccy in the rizzlers

Trips in the Spring thats Bahamas for a break

But I couldn't send a tenner to my sisters (fuck man)

Forget broke I was broken

I mean I was broke too but that's a result of being broken

Finish up the paper, get the paper rolling

It dont matter the grade I'm smoking

When I walked across the stage my Mum couldn't make it

That was a dark cloud and I couldn't shake it

The only way I know how is to come back and take it

The world's for the taking, God you are amazing


[Chorus: Kiera-Lorelle]

Cloudy Skies keep passing me by

That's why I feel alive without you

Cloudy skies keep passing me by

That's why I feel alive without you


[Outro: Tim Ajayi & Kiera-Lorelle]

Wait wait wait a minute (Wait wait wait a minute)

I'm just tryna get my business (I'm just tryna get my business)

Way way beyond the limits (way way beyond the limits)

If you get it then you get it (yeah, yeah)

Wait wait wait a minute (Wait wait wait a minute)

I'm just tryna get my business (I'm just tryna get my business)

Way way beyond the limits (way way beyond the limits)

If you get it then you get it (yeah, yeah)

If you get then you get it (If you get then I get it)

Through the changes never sweat it (Through the changes never sweat it)

Life will do just what you let it (Life will do just what you let it, let it)

If you ready then you tell it (yeah, yeah)

If you get then you get it (If you get then I get it)

Through the changes never sweat it (Through the changes never sweat it)

Life will do just what you let it (Life will do just what you let it, let it)

If you ready then you tell it (If you ready then I tell it)
