Both Sides Of A Smile (feat. James Blake)

[00:00.13] And then, the finer details, who's your Juliet?
[00:06.45] What's the dynamic in the situation between the two leads?
[00:09.80] You know, I guess we're all just
[00:12.62] We're all just, like, looking for a happy ending somewhere
[00:15.91]
[00:40.02] Hey, it's okay (it's okay)
[00:42.58]
[00:45.75] I don't care if no one knows my name
[00:49.31]
[00:52.12] Pain, it's all the same (all the same)
[00:54.95]
[00:57.36] Even if you think it's all in vain
[00:59.99]
[01:02.20] 'Cause I am turning hurt
[01:04.79] Into rose, into rose, into rose, oh-oh
[01:08.17]
[01:10.95] Into rose, into rose, into rose
[01:13.31]
[01:17.58] How could we let it slide?
[01:21.19] Hmm, mm-mm-mm
[01:23.05] Looking back at our lives
[01:26.44] The future's just a lie
[01:29.84] We'll be there, you and I
[01:33.44] Hmm, mm-mm-mm
[01:35.44] On both sides of a smile
[01:40.08] Yeah
[01:40.74] You keep the bread all to yourself and you get mold from it
[01:43.81] You give a good girl a rose and you get gold from it
[01:46.97] Have a child with a rat and you'll get a mouse from it
[01:49.72] You give a woman a brick and you'll get a house from it
[01:52.72] The first time splittin' up always the hardest thing
[01:55.74] Love's a film and I'm just flickin' through the parts I'm in
[01:58.76] I told her, "I don't wanna argue in this car I'm in"
[02:02.47] And that's when she hit me with a
[02:04.39] "Well, I don't get why you would tell me you want me to be your wifey
[02:07.78] When you wanna be Romeo, have me here for the rodeo
[02:10.82] I don't believe you when you gas me up and hype me
[02:13.13] 'Cause you're lusting and these women you're fucking look nothing like me, David
[02:16.88] You find asylum in the countries that you fly me
[02:19.08] And carry all of your guilt in designers bags that you buy me, David
[02:23.10] I ain't askin' you to be someone you wasn't"
[02:26.00] I just wanna fuck with the person I fell in love with, but uh
[02:28.66] Petite waist, sweet face, I'll find another man
[02:32.43] You must have forgotten who the fuck I am
[02:35.06] There's plenty niggas waitin' for chances
[02:37.32] Ask me if I'm taken, I say, "Taken for granted"
[02:40.05] But you know this already
[02:41.55] 'Cause we've spoken already
[02:42.69] Want me to wait 'cause you ain't ready
[02:44.57] Now we're both in our 20s
[02:45.86] I'd date a man before I wait for a man, this ends here
[02:49.17] 'Cause I'll be damned if I give a fucking loser my best years
[02:52.26] Got my own car, own money and my own body
[02:55.62] If I show body, this for me, this ain't for nobody
[02:58.61] I'ma change the lock on the door, think I'm a homebody?
[03:01.55] You won't have a house to fucking live in
[03:03.04] 'Cause you taught me you don't listen
[03:04.78] There's a difference in mistakes and in decisions, David
[03:08.05] The first time was the worst time
[03:10.99] It didn't hurt like the second or the third time
[03:13.32] She put her life on pause
[03:14.78] 'Cause I am turning hurt
[03:17.33] Into rose, into rose, into rose, oh-oh
[03:19.74]
[03:23.18] Into rose, into rose, into rose
[03:25.57]
[03:29.55] How could we let it slide?
[03:32.93] Hmm, mm-mm-mm
[03:35.07] Looking back at our lives
[03:38.47] The future's just a lie
[03:41.55] We'll be there, you and I
[03:45.26] Hmm, mm-mm-mm
[03:47.36] On both sides of a smile
[03:50.82]
[03:58.15] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[04:02.16]
[04:08.66] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[04:14.72] Yeah
[04:16.10] I just came to the area I grew up in
[04:17.93] They can't even see the car but from the engine, they know it's me
[04:20.95] From no fixed abode to the coast of Greece
[04:23.34] I'm most at home in the places I ain't supposed to be
[04:25.98] I grew up seeing mommy count pennies
[04:28.03] Tryna buy a train ticket, but forget sayin' "Woe is me"
[04:31.52] Now I'm in L.A. with the open sea
[04:33.44] They both feel like things I wasn't supposed to see
[04:36.90] Used to be my post, we was close
[04:38.68] Now we argue to the rhythm of a broken beat
[04:41.97] To the beat of a broken heart
[04:43.52] Napoleon Bonaparte meets Joan of Arc
[04:46.51]
[04:48.73] We're both fightin' the sea, this is Noah's ark
[04:51.02] We're lovers with a broken past, grow apart
[04:53.91] Most things that last have the slowest start
[04:56.79] A lotta pain and a lotta tears
[04:58.71] The only reason that I lie, it's 'cause of what I fear
[05:01.53] My girl knows that I'm a fan of charity
[05:03.37] But there's some information I ain't never gonna volunteer
[05:08.65] I wish that I could pay for my sins with a lump sum
[05:11.22] Restore her belief in me with a trust fund
[05:14.02] The money can't buy nothing when the love's done
[05:16.58] I used to cheat with Americans for a living
[05:18.59] I felt nervous every time I got a call from a plus one
[05:21.80] It takes years to build when you love one
[05:24.34] Two and half minutes and it's undone
[05:26.96] Bought my girl a Birkin and she told me that these bitches can't chat to her
[05:29.96] I'm tellin' her that they never could
[05:31.59] You know you love her when you're doin' shit you never would
[05:34.62] Come up off the drugs and bank scams
[05:39.38] How the fuck you think I got the name Santan?
[05:42.18] Run up on me and get a skin tan
[05:44.36] Only when you're gone, they feel your impact
[05:46.94] 19, I had dreams of a wedding ring
[05:49.23] So focused on running our race
[05:51.24] You can ask James Blake, I ain't see the colour in anything
[05:54.17] And then the world got darker than it's ever been
[05:57.65] Real estate, I buss a smile
[05:59.89] International, that's how I'm comin' now
[06:02.38] Mortgage on the yard like 22 hundred
[06:04.63] But the rent's got it covered by a country mile
[06:07.49]
[06:10.16] Feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[06:12.16]
[06:14.40] It feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[06:17.35]
[06:19.87] Feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[06:24.98] It feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[06:28.81] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[06:31.47]
[06:38.87] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[06:41.41]
[06:48.80] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[06:51.05]
[06:58.05] It feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[06:59.85] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[07:03.15]
[07:08.16] It feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[07:09.97] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[07:12.17]
[07:17.87] It feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[07:21.84] (It feels like my luck's-)
[07:24.09]
[07:28.37] It feels like my luck's been runnin' out
[07:30.98] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[07:33.17]
[07:39.08] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[07:41.23]
[07:49.34] Mm-hmm-hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[07:49.51]
