manik mc – trust lyrics

intro + vocal sample

you dont trust me?
no!
then there’s nothing i can do to help
you wanna help me?
certainly

pre + chorus + jehst

if the world was to burn who am i to grieve?
still i take it on my shoulders my heart on my sleeve
if the world was to burn who am i to mourn?
treat it like the last time every time that i perform

verse one + confucius mc

eye of the storm
destroyed until the mind is reformed
hope the world will be left to the kind and the warm
we step to the stage when its time to perform
tryina elevate way above all the lines that were drawn
the live tapestry
where they stay slicing life drastically
and each face is elegantly placed where it has to be
catch the beat in the midst of catastrophe
blue crooked flame in my hand sitting placidly
where trust issues keep us all distant
the pen and the sword absorbed in my short mission
we distort vision, reaching for truth
but falling short of wisdom
named and numbered compliant in this corporate prison
pay the price, keep the soul on ice
book a table for the lost serving soul on rice
you may decide to hold on tight or simply let go
falling forever, drowned in a thousand echos
where fried chicken is king with a thousand tescos
and tryina do an expose will get you exposed
the stress rose while i bless flows
while young ladies stack pennies and pounds to make their chest grow
im tryina live and let go but moments cling to me
an instrument just playing my part in this broken symphony
all hail the unknown force that keeps it all moving
the biggest waves always starting with a small movement

pre + chorus + jehst

if the world was to burn who am i to grieve?
still i take it on my shoulders my heart on my sleeve
if the world was to burn who am i to mourn?
treat it like the last time every time that i perform

chorus + manik mc & jehst

speed it up and then we slow it down, down
seeking shelter in this broken town
all we know’s a broken home, and a frozen frown
you best be stepping up or else they’ll have you stepping down, down

verse two + manik mc

i’m living impulsive with no patience
signal to the sky with my shoulders in rotation
looking empty eyed, we’re all products of no nation
exclamate the deep, spit the speech and close the quotations
a world of no colour as this paint drips on pavements
meditations of a vagrant, know our fate is ever changing
life is what you make it, minds i’m penetrating
many mics i’m devastating, time we rise to the occasion
as we strive for elevation, rolling papers when the moods right
blast away the darkness til we’re dancing in the moonlight
striving for perfection tryina tighten up them loose rhymes
its colder by the day and family i ain’t tryina lose mines
thats why the mandem stepping straight, at least we try to be
let that sentence sit, soaking up the irony
(soaking up the irony)
and if this world was to burn i ask myself who am i to grieve?
no way to change my mood
i watch a rainy day fading from a grey to a navy blue
what was we meant to prove, thinking that we chase the truth
walking talking cliches just tryina shake them labels loose
they gotta know this life ain’t roses and dandelions
walks by the riverside, dancing with the dragonflies
stuck up in this pantomime, watching our talents die
living in a sh+tty manor dreaming of a paradise
since fifteen we been munching beans like its pac+man
lyrics hitting minus degress like this is lapland
coming out the city where the pipes smoke and gats bang
we walk the same streets the pied piper and the rats ran
tryina shake the spirits out the back of my brain
cos they been whispering on my shoulders til i’m actually insane
they stay preying on my fears, had me hating on my peers
my visions clear, since i put them back in their place

pre + chorus + jehst

if the world was to burn who am i to grieve?
still i take it on my shoulders my heart on my sleeve
if the world was to burn who am i to mourn?
treat it like the last time every time that i perform

chorus + manik mc & jehst

speed it up and then we slow it down, down
seeking shelter in this broken town
all we know’s a broken home, and a frozen frown
you best be stepping up or else they’ll have you stepping down, down
