Lump Sums

Yo, yo
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Yo, yo
Let's go, let's go
Look

Work is never done, mind is never settled
Life is never simple, times getting stressful
But they have been forever, keeping pressure on us
Keep the faith, love will never die, evil never prospers
Look out for imposters, loud and obnoxious

Confined in small spaces with you
Making issues out of nothing, screwing up your facial tissue
When you mess up, they can't wait to diss you
Do well, then they act shy
But when you're gone, they claim to miss you
Was tryna uplift, but still staying stuck

What is elevation when you don't know which way is up?
I'll staple shut my mouth before I make this up to be
Something other than it is, I'm aiming up to reach chances that I see
Thought that we were due some good luck
I guess that karma didn't reach, you gotta chance it, but believe
Fools sound as if they're trying to be targets when they speak
And the drama did increase, it was laughable to see

I was tryna uplift, but still staying stuck
What is elevation when you don't know which way is up?
What is celebration if it isn't with your loved ones?
Belief and dedication pay you back in lump sums
I was tryna uplift, but still staying stuck
What is elevation when you don't know which way is up?
What is celebration if it isn't with your loved ones?
Belief and dedication pay you back in lump sums

Could you lend me a hand? Pass the pick and the spade
Before I put my foot into it, whilst I'm digging my grave
I'm running 'round in circles, a figure of eight
Hopping over every hurdle that they stick in my way
You look disgusted, as if I took a shit on your plate
But isn't this great? Wishing for a sizzling steak

Tryna get a bite, bro, I'm missing the bait
Oh well, guess there's plenty more fish in the lake
The repairman, every time I fix it, it break
Slow and steady is the motto, but this isn't a race

If it was, I'm running on a flat tyre
Setting traps like Dick Dastardly, it backfire
That's why I press pause on the world and strap Kyah
Before I put my paws on your girl, I'm sat by her
They say I chat shit when I rap (Fat liar)
But everything will get revealed as it transpire

I was tryna uplift, but still staying stuck
What is elevation when you don't know which way is up?
What is celebration if it isn't with your loved ones?
Belief and dedication pay you back in lump sums
