Skip To My Lou

(album: Baw Baw Black Sheep - 2021)

One, two
Yeah, yeah, uh

I came a long way, from the [?]
I'm the wish in your eye, never far away, yeah
I'm always around, I'm always (always)
I'm always around, I'm always
From the hallway (no) to the Broadway
Do a switch, check the tide, and I'm always
Round, I'm always around, I'm always (always)
Always around, I'm always (yes, yes, yes)

All creeping and crawling, streets be the playgrounds
Catch up plenty mornings
On your plates, I feast, leftovers
I'm a [?] the persona
Legs I grew [?] when I'm walking
Street lights kept awake, me when I'm stalking
In your household, dirty dishwater
You can find me anywhere, stationary gobbling
Looking for my next meal, build me a fortress
Slipped through your backdoor, slept in your toilets
If you squash me, I return stronger
Is it just me? Still awake, stalking
Hard on the outside, soft in my closet
Insects rule, who the black man's prophet?
Something in the air got soul for your gossip
Say you got next, face first on the vomit
Okay, uh

I came a long way (yeah), from the [?] (mmh)
I'm the wish in your eye, never far away, yeah (yeah)
I'm always around, I'm always (always)
I'm always around, I'm always
From the hallway (yeah) to the Broadway (mmh)
Do a switch, check the tide, and I'm always (woo)
Round, I'm always around, I'm always (always)
I'm always around, I'm always (always)
Always around, yeah, I can't let you down (always)
I'm always around, I'm always (always)
Always around, I'm always (always)
Always around, I'm al (always around)
Always around, I'm al (always around)
Always around, I'm (always, always)
I'm always around, yeah (always, always)
I'm always around, always

And you could call me up
Graduating knee-high to beehive in a barbershop
Far from the days when my old lady used to line me up
(Goddamn, your mama fucked up)
My forehead used to feel long as hell
Before my hairline would grow back
Mind is scared to go back to school, or to go back lying
It never mattered, just shattered my lenses
But no excuses, nigga had to have perfect attendance
No acting stupid, you got class today, lying around like it's Sabbath day
Who in the hell did you ask [?]? Jeez, boy
[?] I wish I could remember, but I didn't read up my history
First time I came home with my hand full of splinters, yes, I
Ran from the switch, I couldn't stand [?] birthday
Candles and wishes and missing teeth
Restoring my temple where the clippers be
Wish you were here with me (uh) 'cause

I came a long way (yeah), from the [?] (mmh)
I'm the wish in your eye, never far away, yeah (yeah)
I'm always around, I'm always (always)
I'm always around, I'm always
From the hallway (yeah) to the Broadway
Do a switch, check the tide, and I'm always
Round, I'm always around, I'm always (always)
I'm always around, I'm always (always)
I'm always around, yeah, I'm always round (always)
Always around, I'm always (yeah)
Always around, I'm always (always)
Always around, I'm al (always around)
Always around, I'm al (always around)
Always around, I'm (always, always)
I'm always around, yeah (always, always)
I'm always around, I'm al (say what, say what?)
...

I'm around, I'm around
I'm around, I'm around
I'm around, I'm around
I'm around, I'm around
I'm around, I'm around
I'm around, I'm around
I'm around
Always around you, yeah
