homecut - time difference lyrics

verse 1
[j-live]
ay-yo, 6 am in the atl
nyc seems miles from here
like the minute big ben being seeing the light
before i even rolled out of the bed
jump on a chat for the toll free business
hands on keys like ears to the ground
holla at my overseas peoples in an instant
trade food for thought swaps words for sounds
[homecut]
the sounds at the venue checked, head downtown
‘round ten pm, …chow with my friend
i’m…late turning up and she’s watching the clock
sharing a cuppa mint tea at this persian spot
says the “old her’ s” gone, since she’s learnt lot
when a temporary lover, made-her permanent mum
now works a s-x line to, earn some crust
mid-conversation,(what?) midnight: i gotta run (cos its time)

[chorus]:
time difference, the difference in time
we trying live in these difficult times
uk to us, ls to ny
testament, j-live
things look different with time
time difference, the difference in time
we trying live in these difficult times
uk to us, ls to ny
testament, j-live
things look different…

verse 2
[homecut]
first-hand on 3, weave through second-hand smoke
new bohemia closed, so i catch a cab home
couldn’t properly chat, with my pal at the show
apologetic text message tapped into ma phone
he’s stand-up bloke, b-boyed when we were younger
became policeman, in his london borough
see i thank god for the seasons that we livin’ with
getting through meantimes, like the greenwich meridian
[j-live]
deejay at greenwich vilage, today’s mission
grab a camera full of landscapes and friends
can’t miss a moment cos you never know when this life might come to an ends
catch a value of a dollar and it don’t make sense
now i’m trying to make a punds out of fifteen pense
see i don’t get gas like sight for sound
contemplating how the modern day cipher sounds

[chorus]:

verse 3
[j-live]
from 3 o’clock to 6 then i get to la guardia
two days before i need jfk
almost missed my flight with a close encounter
from the biblebelt c cycles here in the a
and it ain’t no different in the empire state
from forty-one to fifty, the shots hardly miss me
at 8 o’clock reach harlem according to plan
10 o’clock i start the party with the settlement jam
[homecut]
jam on toast, 10 o’clock, i think maybe i changed?
raised my game and moved on, well, then again maybe i ain’t?
…the time zones of life jetlag me now
been undergrad, unemployed now i’m underground
i understand this: “freedom means sacrifice”
jump online, contact the j-live
leave the house, say a prayer, grab my plane ticket
hear the sound of children, playing in the distance…
