lyrics

(Verse 1)

I’m sitting in the grass
Peacefully alone,
Laying here forever
Man I’m never going home.
Writing in these books
It’s like I’m filling them with hope,
Rarely space for hooks
I’m writing vividly in bold, yo.
I know I’ll see things differently when I am old
I had a few epiphanies and now I’m stoked.
Everybody’s doing
What everyone else approves,
Especially in music
Stop making it for the views -
I’m making music to deliver you the truth.
I’m making moves and I’m making them real smooth.
You can take my wings away,
I’ve learnt to touch the sky
In like one hundred thousand different ways.
I’m tired of doing the same things on all these different days,
If I can recluse from the matrix another mission fades.
(Another mission fades)
I’ve been sitting waiting,
And over complicating,
I should really take my time so I can hone the basics.

(Chorus)

Basically
We base our dreams on make believe,
But dreams are only dreams until you take a leap,
And we can only speak
For what we claim to see,
Filling up my heart
So I don’t have to feel the vacancy.

(Verse 2)

Who are we real and truly?
We act like life’s a movie
I’m just going with the flow,
There’s water running through me -
And I’m appreciating everything that’s coming to me
I forget to breath sometimes
When life is getting so confusing.
This is art work and it’s hard work,
Kept going straight right up until my path curved.
I 'ain’t never been the same since my heart hurt,
Filling it with laughter,
Now it only half hurts.
Rainy are made to wash the pain away,
But we sit and watch the rain and let the pain invade.
Are we really just afraid of what a change will take?
You will free your mins
When you decide to break the chains.

(Chorus)

Basically
We base our dreams on make believe,
But dreams are only dreams until you take a leap,
And we can only speak
For what we claim to see,
Filling up my heart
So I don’t have to feel the vacancy.

about

natestapes London, UK

My dreams and ambitions have led me here, aged 20, I'm now looking to jump start my music career.
Rap is more than a craft or a job to me. It brings my emotions to life and I feel myself live through it. I hope I can convey this in my songs.
I'm always looking for ways to improve, increasing the possible outcomes of my work tenfold.
My feet are, and always will be firmly planted on the ground.
