Heart Don't Lie

(album: The Lost Boys - 2015)

[Shakka:]
Let's toast to those who keep it up
Make a poker face fit like a glove
Those who put a lid on their feelings
And a smile on a broken heart
Let's toast to those who hold it down
Who save their words from a shiny pound
I can't quite say that I hear them
Tune into my heartbeat sound

Yes, I love and hate
Cause my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie, why should I? Why should I? Why should I?
Ooh

Let's raise a glass to the teacher's pet
Knows what to say when she's upset
To those who are numb to their feelings
And to those who don't know that yet
Let's raise a glass to the hopes and dreams
And to those who don't know what they mean
I can't quite say that I hear them
My heart don't work like a machine

Cause I love and hate
Cause my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie, why should I? Why should I?

[Wretch 32:]
I've seen my baby mother cry and smile at the same time
Birth makes expressions that the body can't hide
Close the windows to my soul, see them peeking through my blinds
Searching for the truth, might get fed a pack of lies
I'm 32 with it, yeah, you know Wretch
Wear my heart on my sleeve beneath my Rolex
Had to fight for my dreams, we had to protest
Having less hope don't mean you're hopeless
And me and Shakka sitting at the table talking 'bout talent
Like a transmission, leaves you feeling transparent
Worship what you have when you see what man haven't
Are the best things free when you ain't got no bank balance?
Why would you run from your heart chasing your mind?
Running circles round your feelings to replace 'em with lies
Give your ten thousand hours, don't be wasting your time
Be the late great, not the dead guy that's alive
There's no excusing it, see, I'm the truth with it
And my heart beats music, I'm in tune with it

[Shakka:]
Yes, I love and hate
Because my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie, why should I? Why should I?
So I love and hate
Cause my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie, why should I? Why should I?
