YOU'RE LISTENING TO... the 1950s
LYRICS / TEXT
// intro //
schyeah
// verse 1 //
feel like adam before my eve, walkin' aimlessly, passin' trees
see, i'm wondering if i'm blasphemous or like lazarus
and if i stumble, will God be catching us? i'm asking cuz'
i got so many worries on my mind and i can barely sleep
keep reading my own novel constantly, i'm kinda 上瘾 on
ironic, i'on even trust my circle, but i carry on
and stay in it, remain in it, reshape me till i feel safe in it
all so i don't freak out 'bout if they wanna blair witch me (ah!)
so do i look at them with apathy, kindness or vandal eyes?
my heart, draw some cute doves, 'cuz everything will fade away
i forgot how to be human, are your feelings certain or randomized?
take me back to the 1950s, where everything's black and white, yeah
// chorus //
give me back a truth i can believe
take me back to when God was our king
give me back all the colours i breathed
take me back there, take me back (ah)
bring me there 'cuz the industry now
bring me there 'cuz we're all high and proud
bring me there now 'cuz everything hurts
i don't know if it's better or worse
// verse 2 //
take me to the 1950s, where everything's black and white
to the time where it's all dictated by the labels and the signs
to when everything was obvious, not even a word need to be spoke
to when the higher-ups provided if you was legally broke
to when i get women from wearing madras, not rawdogging her arse up
to when they had some sense of dignity, sixteen, knew when to start up
bet the angels have seen my movie and said that it was a pity
forced chastity just because nobody wanna get wit' me
so i ball, shooting like the og kneuppel
and i lie to myself about not wanting the milk to spill
want me a petite woman that reminds me of the 50s
with values, but i don't have no say 'cuz decree nisi
time flies, guess it's fleeting, 2020s now but my bitches ain't
and my vision fine, dyslexic but that's aight, need me some vision aids
i'm glad i'm still awake, but i live a life where they all spite me
take me back to the 1950s, where i could pull wearing a white tee
// chorus //
give me back a truth i can believe
take me back to when God was our king
give me back all the colours i breathed
take me back there, take me back (ah)
bring me there 'cuz the industry now
bring me there 'cuz we're all high and proud
bring me there now 'cuz everything hurts
i don't know if it's better or worse
