Yesterday

(album: Vintage Modern - 2017)

[Hein Cooper:]
Yesterday I said my
Prayer for you
Now I feel that I
Won't be by your side
Yesterday I said my
Prayer for you
But not realise
This is my goodbye

[360:]
Yeah, have you ever been dogged
By a best mate or even by a friend that you got?
Well, you been getting 'em wrong
They put a knife in your back to get ahead in their job
You been definetly getting 'em wrong
All this hatred, where the hell have they been getting it from?
Every time you succeed like you're setting 'em off
It's like your life is something that they're envious of
Don't get jelly when they win though
Anytime they're killing, go and cheer for 'em
Don't be happy when they get low
Hit 'em up and let 'em know you're here for 'em
Throwing hands what you're getting ready for
Never been a friendship where there's never any flaws
In the rulebook there's forever been a clause:
'Never bring a life down just to get ahead in yours'
Yo, tell 'em

[Hein Cooper:]
Yesterday I said my
Prayer for you
Now I feel that I
Won't be by your side
Yesterday I said my
Prayer for you (said my prayer for you)
But not realise
This is my goodbye

I feel that I
Realise
My goodbye
It's my goodbye

[360:]
Yeah, I know it hurts to get backstabbed
Your first reaction, you wanna go and stab back
It doesn't work, there's nothing worse
It's undeserved, now they're spreading lies and it fucking hurts
They prob'ly did it out of vanity
What's killing, they were meant to be your family
The shit'll burn, but give 'em worse
Live and learn, swallow your pride and be the bigger person
That's the problem with friendly competition
Only gonna end as opposition
You don't ever wanna get in that position
Tell 'em but they never gonna listen
Yeah, if you do that's some shit that you'll regret it
Either isn't gonna end well or isn't gonna end
Forgive 'em, start wishing 'em the best
'Cause while they praying that you fail, go and hit 'em with success
And kill 'em

[Hein Cooper:]
You gotta know, you gotta know
How you've betrayed me
And you wanna know, you wanna know
I hope you make it
Until you grow, until you grow
Out of this hatred
You'll never know, you'll never know
Until you change it

Yesterday I said my
Prayer for you
Now I feel that I (feel that I)
Won't be by your side (by your side)
Yesterday I said my
Prayer for you (said my prayer for you)
But not realise
This is my goodbye

I feel that I
Realise
My goodbyes
My goodbye
I feel that I
Realise
My goodbye
It's my goodbye
