Roundabouts (R.I.P Kay Mellor) Lyrics

I've been down and out couple thousand times

Round and round like round abouts

Bouncing round just ride it out

I've been down and out couple thousand times

Round and round like round abouts

Bouncing round just ride it out

A couple years ago I turned bad and I lost my way

But now I'm making up and I swear I've got plenty of days

I've got plenty of time to be changing in plenty of ways

Now that I've found myself and I'm finally finding my way

Now that I've realised life ain't always about that race

Lifes about taking time and always showing that grace

And I know negative vibes they do often take place

And negative thoughts they try knock you back from your break

I've been in many bad gaffs and many bad hoods in states

I seen life turn dark in the blink of an eye watch face

I seen life turn dark when I broke and I've lost my mates

One knife one shot one op that's all that it takes

And We need to guide these people

And we need to make them realise

That it all ticks round like closewise

We need to make them see it right

It doesn't cost nothing to be polite

There's always an option to having a fight

There's always going left instead of right

This life that we got right now it's bright

And I swear that the light ain't going out

I'm still flowing now swear that I'll never bounce

I be on the main stage you be looking Micky mouse

I been in my girls crib you be in your momma's house

I've been riding I've been

I've been riding I've been

I've been riding I've been

I've been riding I've been

Down and out couple thousand times

Round and round like round abouts

Bouncing round just ride it out

Now I honestly know that I ain't ever gonna go stop

Nah I ain't gonna stop till I hit the top or I hit my peak

I'm out here writing and rhyming lyrics and slapping on beats

Man I'm out here doing music thing and I do it all week

It wasn't always like this nah cause the river run deep

I was all sidetracked back then it's like I was asleep

I got a little help from someone and I took that leap

I couldn't of done that by myself so now it's all peak

And I've gotta thank person

But I've gotta do it indirectly

Filled up my heart up when It was all empty

Gave me something so I had plenty

Opened so many doors so now that I'm gonna go and do a hella lot in my twenties

Do it all trendy

I was all Kenzo

Now I'm on Fendi

Living like Presley

But

Without love

Without kindness

Then what have we got

You could have unlimited money unlimited cars but when will it stop?

All we need is eachother

When will that penny drop?

All we need is eachother

Cause each others's all that we've got
