loyle carner - pollyfilla lyrics

[verse 1]
trying not to be the man i didn’t want to be
to be the person that you want to see
the night falls, i’m the one you meet
stopping at the shops and buying something sweet
yo, i was willing, we was able
yeah, put a living on the table
the little image that i cradle
to empathise with the villains in the fable
that we relate to, because it shapes you
i started doing everything that they do
visions of a father that would taint you
yeah, shatter like the glass that i was chained to
becausе i made you, anyone could make you
yеah, but it’s your father that could raise you
ah, only a mother that could save you
we never had enough, still we make do
[chorus]
yeah, to break the chains and the cycle
the days that are vital, the place as an idol
yeah, see the name’s in the title
the days, a disciple, this pain, it was my fault
yeah, ’cause wide awake from the chains in the thread
all the pain that could stays in your head
yeah, i understand, yo, i’m whiling
no man is an island but you know i’ve been trying

[verse 2]
yeah, but is it good enough?
yeah, shiver through my hoodie as i pull it up
cycle through the city, thinking stupid stuff
acting like i’m quiet but i could erupt
and i did
flashing back when we was kids, i see my father blow his lid
yeah, i used to say i hate the crib
hate the doors, hate the fridge, hate this f+cking house i live
’cause there’s holes in every wall and now there’s holes in every wall
when it was me and i’ve been taken for a fool
i hold my son, yo, i’ve been trying to play it cool
but i’m the villain in the story, the exception to the rule
did the pressure bussed a pipe, build a diamond?
the anger puts a fella on an island
yeah, you hear the bang, feel the silence
ah, but you know i’ve been trying
[chorus]
yeah, to break the chains and the cycle
the days that are vital, the place as an idol
yeah, see the name’s in the title
the days, a disciple, this pain, it was my fault
yeah, ’cause wide awake from the chains in the thread
all the pain that could stays in your head
yeah, i understand, yo, i’m whiling
no man is an island but you know i’ve been

[verse 3]
when i was younger, yo, i wanted to be famous
now that i’m older, yo, i wish that i was nameless
the world’s aimless, no one gives a f+ck
time’s of the essence, i was running out of luck
getting stuck for a couple bucks, tryna bust a nut
filling up my plate but wasn’t filling up your cup
yo, i say it’s f+cked, they even k!lled the wolverine
that was the only father figure that i’d seen
i was lost, trying to find something to believe
all them aches and the pain, yeah, from crying on my knees
i was saying please, all this air that i breathe
weren’t a waste, the glass chin staying on my feet
i close my eyes and i listen to you sleep
yeah, find some peace
