[Chorus - Emeli Sandé]
I wanna sing, I wanna shout,
I wanna scream till the words dry out.
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid,
They can read all about it, read all about it, ohhhh.
[Verse 1 - Professor Green]
Nothing to hide
And then smothered
Suffered and cried
Jack made me tougher
To trouble I rise
Above all
Expectations forget rep
Ain’t never
When I wanted to get
Hustle
To be I am
Say I had to cash in all my dad’s debt
I wanted to
Instead I said nothing at all
After all
You were never kin to me
Family is something that you never been to me
In fact
Making it harder for me to see my father
Was the only thing that you ever did for me
[Chorus - Emeli Sandé]
I wanna sing, I wanna shout,
I wanna scream till the words dry out.
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid,
They can read all about it, read all about it, ohhhh.
[Verse 2 - Professor Green]
As a kid I looked up to you,
Only thing was I never saw enough of you.
Last thing I said to you was I hated you,
I loved you but now it’s too late to say to you.
Just didnt know what to do and how to deal with it,
Even now deep down I still live it.
I think, I used to blame me,
I wonder what I did to you to make you hate me.
I wasn’t even 5, lifes a journey and mine wasnt an easy ride,
You never even got to see me rap,
I just wish you woulda reached out,
I wish you woulda been round when I been down.
I wish that you could see me now,
Wherever you are I really hope you find peace.
I know that if I ever have kids,
Unlike you i’ll never let them be without me.
[Chorus - Emeli Sandé]
I wanna sing, I wanna shout,
I wanna scream till the words dry out.
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid,
They can read all about it, read all about it, ohhhh.
[Verse 3 - Professor Green]
Everything I have, I give to you
In every one of these lines I sing to you
My job's more like public service
My life just became yours to read and interpret
If you heard it it'd come across a lot different at times
I throw fits when I read how they word things
You see me smile
Now you're gonna have to see me hurtin'
Coz pretending everything is alright when it ain't, really isn't working
[Chorus - Emeli Sandé]
I wanna sing, I wanna shout,
I wanna scream till the words dry out.
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid,
They can read all about it, read all about it, ohhhh.
[Chorus - Emeli Sandé]
I wanna sing, I wanna shout,
I wanna scream till the words dry out.
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid,
They can read all about it, read all about it. |
