The Island lyrics
by MOSSBACK
[Part 1: MOSSBACK]
Why can't you ever listen? Just sit and listen, behave like children
It's crippling our decisions, emotional extradition
Sending me to the island until I'm talking different
How many pieces missing?
I used to think I needed you but now I need some distance
What's the source of the friction?
Need a dictionary to flesh out the description
You take me for granted, you take my presence for a given
Truer words have never been written, talking in circles until we collapse
And nothing changes other than air condition
I know I have my issues; I think about 'em all day till the sun dies
The pride, the rage, the spite, the hate
I'm trying to fight, despite my fate
I'm doomed, the lessons I learned
Destined to repeat, so let it burn
I never felt more alone than when you turned myself against me
[Bridge: MOSSBACK]
While you were planning distance, I was seething all night
Even through the questions, I don't f*ck with your eyes
You'll received the message, but you don't see the light
Grasping at the feathers so the bird won't take flight
[Part 2: SALIVA GREY]
(Aye, yuh)
Why you steady f*cking b*tching? You never listen
You pulling my strings, won't ever get it, f*cking pessimistic
No pot to p*ss in, but the fullest kitchen
Been doin' all right then I be reminiscing
Really missing the worst times had me ack'in different
But followed by all of my thoughts of emptiness indefinitely
Feelin' like I'm out of body, too proud to stop me
I've been dreaming of a double homi, do it muh'f*cka, try me, yeah
Why you pressin' me, guess you ain't look at reflection
You know better than I (Why?)
You gon' question the blessings, so f*ckin' deceptive
When it's in front yo' eyes (Aye)
Know these lessons are weapons, but yet no hesitation
You still wanna fight (Why?)
Won't invest in the present but want the heaven well f*ck it
Just go and die
[Outro: MOSSBACK & Sailva Grey]
Why can't you ever listen? Just sit and listen
Behave like children, it's crippling our decisions—
Why can't you ever listen? Behave like children
W-W-Why you steady f*cking b*tching
J—just sit and listen, behave like children, it's crippling your decisions—
Aye, yuh
—Listen? Just sit and listen, behave like children, it's crippling—
W-W-Why you—W-W-Why you steady f*cking b*tching
Behave like children, it's crippling your decisions— J—just sit and listen
Behave like children, it's crippling your decisions, emotional extradition
Aye, yuh
Sending me to the island until I'm talking different
W-W-Why you—W-W-Why you steady f*cking b*tching
Emotional extradition, sending me to the island until I'm talking different
How many pieces missing? I us—
Emotional extradition, sending me to the island until I'm talking different
How many pieces missing?
