Aditya Lodha - Late Delivery lyrics
[Verse 1] I'm afraid that my dad is ashamed of priorities I don't set Mother wonder why the whole mess got her so stressed And I do confess all the things that I thought I'd be Were fueled by money that I thought I'd need But I'm only in my room dreaming dreams I've beamed Of things that seem, the things I've seen The pimps that scheme - who missed their teens With drinks that clean the sins of beings Amidst a mist of beats I put a lot of time into my rhymes and now I reap the sheets Theses fruits of labour couldn't seem to fool my failures Head is caught up in the business model versus pa**ion Phantom of the opera is the option I can't fathom Life's a movie, to be frankly candid I'm tryna find the lock to which the keys were handed Walk the talk but I just stick to prancing Cause I am a little restless Money talks a lot, look I'm not tryna spread a message Just a game addict that's tryna fix the glitches Tryna make a difference while tryna make a hitlist I guess I'm a little behind But limits are characteristics of the mind [Pre-Chorus] Here's a clip so I can prove the things that I've been doing with my time now I might be out of line but at least I'm not lying to my mind now [Chorus] I don't really know what you want from me I don't really need you in my head I don't like the things you said Lasted 30 minutes or less and after all the things you did to me I'm sorry for the late delivery [Bridge] I'm lost but confined to the same damn choice Constantly listening to the same damn voice They hate the new me but I'm the same damn boy I'm just two sides to the same damn coin [Verse 2] Now watch me flip the switch And Ma, don't flip your sh** Plenty of things in the sea This the fish I picked You the one that said do what you must But do what you wish So I made a wish The great are only great because they made it through It's destiny and I know that I got a fate to prove I scream all I want but I got weight to lose This the life of Pablo with the Saint removed I wanna take the highway to heaven, come back a year after So I can prove to Ma that true happiness is in laughter What if amidst the mess, my dreams really do shatter? These thoughts are like black-holes, they really don't matter But if I'm s**ed in, everybody please forgive me I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry I hope this music thing works out for me If not, I guess it's back to work-outs for me If not, it's back to dad's factory If not, I don't know what's gonna happen to me (I don't know what's gonna happen to me) Look, I got some rappers asking my favours Asking for bars like they just finished a law semester Want production too? But you know guac' is extra I just keep toppin' on them like some sauces, catch up No beef, bury those that only talk about women and pain That's two pieces of art that can never be framed And love is a piece of heart that can never be tamed Playing God is deciding when you should let it rain And that's never easy Why interfere with someone's light? Someone's fight is someone's right And I don't ever wait for tide That washes on the shores of this beach that is life How can we as a human race decide on what is right? I wanna sum up all these differences that just divide I'm multiplied by all this hate I'm out here tryna be the prime The one that with himself equates formulae to derive The root of all evil, God please show me a sign Am I the final piece that this jigsaw puzzle is missing? The jig is up now that I see it's me who wasn't listening It's me who spent those nights out It's me who wasn't mixing Ironically, those nights out were always spent in mixing Now it's me who wants to be at home, who don't mind all the drifting Away from those that keep me down to seek something uplifting And if I get one wish, I wish everyone would please forgive me It's been cooking too long I'm sorry for the late delivery [Chorus] I don't really know what you want from me I don't really need you in my head I don't like the things you said Lasted 30 minutes or less and after all the things you did to me I'm sorry for the late delivery
