Peace lyrics
by Moses Sumney
[Intro]
I've got to find some peace of mind
I've got to find some peace of mind
[Verse 1: Little Simz]
She was sixteen trekking through the rain just to build (I've got to find some peace of mind)
To now, whipping beamers out of town though the hills
She thinks about where she begun and what it takes (I've got to find some peace of mind)
All the choices, her L's and her mistakes
All you can do is try, try your best (I've got to find some peace of mind)
So, if you can't give her wisdom, at least just give hеr grace
The weight of thе world been causing her to retreat (I've got to find some peace of mind)
How can we sleep when there's murders in the streets?
Guilty taking a bite, but knowing she gotta eat
A time we should be praying for nothing other than peace
A time we should be holding each other through all the grief
God gave her the gift of delivering you a speech
[Chorus: Little Simz, Miraa May]
Don't be afraid when you're falling, you're falling (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Tryna find yourself on the way (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Don't miss your calling, your calling
I've got's to find some peace of mind
[Verse 2: Little Simz]
They didn't let you in when you waited (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Thinking on how to balance a day shift
One thing you never harbour is hatred
I know the space you're in is sacred
All of the tools are at your disposal (I've got to find some peace of mind)
How can you be the greatest but noble?
The mountain moves, the climb is steep
Who are we looking up to as moguls?
Royal, empress (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Life riches in excess
Minimalism don't mean you spend less
Love is the currency and it's endless
Don't be a victim of your reality (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Yo, it can be draining getting through each day
And sometimes we ain't got the capacity
All I'm really needing is clarity
We all need something we can believe in (I've got to find some peace of mind)
But everything's happening for a reason
In your heart you will always be home
So make peace with what you outgrow
[Chorus: Little Simz & Moses Sumney, Miraa May]
Don't be afraid when you're falling, you're falling (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Tryna find yourself on the way (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Don't miss your calling, your calling
I've got's to find some peace of mind (I've got to find some peace of mind)
[Bridge: Moses Sumney]
I, chasing after empires online (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Wishing I could falsify the grains of time
But my sleep's been weak (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Seven generations of needin' relief
How do you find it? (I've got to find some peace of mind)
When the son's the patriarch?
Ooh
How do you find it? (I've got to find some peace of mind)
When the sun is dimmer than the stars?
[Outro: Miraa May]
Broken and defeated, I need help, feels like I'm losing control (I've got to find some peace of mind)
I close my eyes, feel the rain (I've got to find some peace of mind)
Pray to God, know I gotta let it go
I won't stop trying, no (I've got to find some peace of mind)
'Cause I deserve it all
Yeah, yeah
I gotta find some peace of mind
Mm-mm
