Speed Of Plight

(album: hugo - 2022)

Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Missed another birthday, was shelling overseas
Photo of police on my road, belly of the beast
I've been hidden in the East
So I'm on my P's and my Q's
Tryna find a piece of my youth
'Cause on them late nights, we be getting bruised
The people wanna dance, they don't wanna hear the truth

(Check)

They got no loving for no niggas on the news, sorry Alfa
But they won't listen if I sing the blues like a blood
And yo, we learnt nothing from the crud
We just lost a lot of figures in the city that we love
Yo, it's bugged, 'cause they be looking to above
And I'm like, "Bruv, look at what's in front of you
Look at what love can do, look how they corrupted you
Tryna put trust in any others instead of trusting you"

The world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Shit
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Check
Is it only me?

Check
I've still got this bad taste in my mouth
Still the most hated face in the South
I'm still tryna find the grace in my house, but I made it out
Picking up the pace and I bounced
So shut your fucking mouth
Yo, I was living in the fucking drought
It's a wonder not one of us fucking drowned
Yo, they were walking past, but wouldn't help a brother out
So I had to stack my money and make my mother proud
Nobody does it so I did it by myself
I see my brother's ashes sitting on my shelf
Trust, collecting dust, but yo, I didn't scream for help
Saw the championship running, I was coming for the belt
Yo, I want it all
I want the money and the fame
The funny in the pain
Want the summer in the rain
Yo, I want it all
Until there's nothing that remains
If I didn't make the currency
At least I made a change

Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Check
Is it only me?

The world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Shit
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Is the world moving fast for you as well?
Ayo, I can't tell if it be only me
Check
Is it only me?
