No One Knows

(album: Against All Odds - 2009)

[Dappy:]
Oh-woah
Yeah
Na na nai

[Dappy {Dappy & Tulisa}:]
One day, it's gon' be over
I can see the end of the tunnel, it's getting closer
I remember being seven and feeling like I was older
Seeing things I shouldn't have and then quickly became a grown-up (Yeah)
All we wanted was money, but we never seemed to get it (Get it)
One minute remaining, there was never any credit
Here we are, ten years down the line, nothing's changed
My aim is to put my mortgage down in my mother's name
{When you're hopin'}
And the only thing you're looking forward to is the giro that you're claiming
There's something called recession keeps messing with your brain
Will I live to see the sun? 'Cause here, it's always fucking raining

[Tulisa & Dappy:]
When you're hoping and you're dreaming
And you can't feel what you're feeling
And you can't give 'cause you're hurting
And it seems like nothing's working

[Tulisa (Tulisa & Dappy):]
No one knows your name
No, no one knows your name
(Can't keep fighting)
(Something has to change)
Don't need a helping hand
See, no one understands
(However this ends)
(Hand in hand, we'll remain)

[Fazer {Dappy & Tulisa}:]
I remain strong always
Cah' the only change I ever see is death, strain, and more pain
We can't get no jobs but regardless, we're trying all day
Make sure you carry on going 'til everyone knows your name (Uh)
To all the single baby mothers, it's gon' be alright (Yeah)
To all the mandem who be hustling every night
When the revolution comes, I'm going dressed up as a soldier
I put my armour on and I won't sleep until it's over, let me show ya
{When you're hopin'}
And the only thing you're looking forward to is for someone to start blaming
'Cause what they tell us on the news is highly entertaining
Will I live to see the sun? 'Cause here, it's always fucking raining

[Tulisa & Dappy:]
When you're hoping and you're dreaming
And you can't feel what you're feeling
And you can't give 'cause you're hurting
And it seems like nothing's working

[Tulisa {Dappy} *Both*:]
No one knows your name (Your name)
No, no one knows your name (Your name)
*Can't keep fighting*
*Something has to change* (To change)
Don't need a helping hand
See, no one understands
*However this ends*
*Hand in hand, we'll remain*

[Dappy:]
Yo, this is more than a dream (Uh)
Though it's further than we see, I know we'll get there

[Tulisa:]
If I slow down, I will get weak
If I can't stand and I can't reach
Everything we need is closer than it seems
If I slow down, I will get weak
If I can't stand and I can't reach
Everything we need is closer than it seems

[Tulisa {Tulisa & Dappy}:]
No one knows your name (Oh)
No, no one knows your name (Your name)
{Can't keep fighting}
{Something has to change}
Don't need a helping hand (Helping hand)
See, no one understands
{However this ends}
{Hand in hand, we'll remain}

[Dappy:]
Oh-whoa
Yeah
