London Gloomy Day:
(Piano intro)
Turn back time to yesterday
I'd give anything to see your smile
Baby would have walked a million miles
Turn back to the day I met you
And now I'll never forget you
(Instrumental)
You said I made you laugh like you haven't had in a while
I'd do anything to see you smile
You said baby I'm too far away
Here it's a London gloomy day
I said I'm just a teenager barely have some life left though
Baby I'm gonna save you
I don't care if it's far away
I like London anyway
Gonna have picket fence
Gonna have you on the mend
You're the one I had to say
On a London gloomy day
(Instrumental)
(Rap)
Fast forward
Now I'm nothing but a street cat
Happiness is a lie, big fat
Nothing but an optical illusion
You're asking me to go back
(Song)
Baby I only had my heart broken once before I met you
It's been pounded to dust here in the present
Honey I'm a grownup
You think I'm gonna save you?
Love is not enough, I'll tell ya
(Chorus)
Turn back time to yesterday
You said I'm too far away
It's a London gloomy day
You said babe I wanna marry you
Because to me you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen
To me
Can't stop thinking about you
But now you gotta go
It'a not safe for you here
It's a London gloomy day
And I'm too far away
Run away from me
Turn back time to yesterday
You said I'm too far away
It's a London gloomy day
(Sound of a broken clock)
(Rap)
Ha
Hey princess
Where the fuck you think I'm from?!
You think I ain't seen death before?
Here you don't have to be from the slums
You think I'm smiling, chewing gum?
Babe I'm nothing but a street cat
Look laid back
You can't notice all the shit I carry on my back
I'm good like that
Backtrack with a rock-filled backpack up the fuckin' Everest
Keepin' an eye on demons that never rest
Bitch I dare you to come talk
See I still love you
But on you I'll turn my back
By now it's too little, too late
Back's been turnt on you and the whole world
You weren't here
So much more shit has happened
I don't know how the fuck you were always so optimistic
Can't afford to be realistic?
Eyes as blue like the morning sky
Hair as fair as the sun in winter
You were so warm
You're my favorite place to visit
But honey please be realistic
I will never be optimistic
Look at the light and you can't see the darkness
The monsters get bigger and better and faster
Can't look at you
Gotta keep a gun pointed at their teeth
Baby YOU run away from ME
Yeah, I could make a mess of your captor
But my days on this earth are counted
Tell me how am I gonna find you
On a city way bigger than mine bruh
I don't believe in fairy tales, mind you
I don't like London no more
My destination's been rerouted
Where the fuck you think I'm from
You know where I'm from
You know better than anyone
(Piano)
(Singing)
Baby now I'm too far away
How am I gonna get to yesterday
It's better for you to just stay away
I'm a London gloomy day
(Instrumental)
Here it's always a London gloomy day
