Modern English Lyrics

It's the change of the tide

It's the counting of the clock

When the city comes in

And fills in all the dots

And you're stuck in a skyline

With a glass ceiling top

Like it 's the beginning of something

So why'd you want it to stop

It's just a refresh of youths

Just a symptom of want

We dress the favorites as scapegoats

And see if they'll prop

Seen that chance isn't random

Seen it take from the have not

Just some common day ramblings

Modern English, all I got

And I

Wonder all the time

If there's good reason

Or something despite

With my head to the car

Red and blue shine likes stars

The same way the night my brother had died

It's dancing round the room

I guess you know the truth

It's something

Waiting or not

Modern english

Yeah it's all that I got

She was the moment

But only for the night

I was messing around

Getting way too high

Till the cop pulled me over on seventy-five

With too sudden a move

A nigga might take flight

But it's never enough

Still a nigga despite

Guess I'm calling your bluff

Hood angels never die

I was trying the set

They trying me for life

It was never enough

I guess we could just try

And I

Wonder all the time

If there's good reason

Or something despite

With my head to the car

Red and blue shine likes stars

The same way the night my brother had died

It's dancing round the room

I guess you know the truth

You trust my life forever

If I could just sight it

Warned of something

Try it

Something still despite it

Oh please tell me why I'm dying

Oh god if I tried it

If you go despite it

Oh if I would light

Enough to indict it

Oh no

Oh no

La la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la
