Devlin - A Gift & A Curse lyrics

[Hook: Chasing Grace] You want to see the best of me You gotta see the worst of me You wanna see the gift of me You gotta see the curse of me You gotta see the world I've seen You gotta see the dreams I dream Well, nobody sees me, no The rise and fall [Verse 1: Devlin] You gotta see what I've seen Be where I've been to achieve these dreams Be a teen on the UK streets Scared for your life, getting chased through the night And the world's getting ruthless You got a red eye, everybody's on a high And the matters got stupid, so have I All you ever do is bring me down I'm living up to the name you gave me tonight And I am silent, that's why everybody wants me to live a lie I ain't sure being thirty, I come from a place where the good die young And the bad die when is their time, they say this to the face Just know that my head's inside too well so my new name's two face [Hook: Chasing Grace] [Verse 2: Devlin] I showed you the gift, let me show you the curse You get big, then vultures emerge And so called friends try pulling your bird Once again, I gotta roll in the curb And I try live my life with models Prefer myself in many more quarrels So I seek salvation in words So many votes, a gift and a curse The reason I flourished and grew Might be the reason I feel malnourished and blue I felt pain in the world My arteries run through the chambers of hell All I know is from an young man's view I've seen some things so amazing in this world Sometimes the gra** is greener Sometimes is quite hard to tell [Hook: Chasing Grace] [Bridge: Chasing Grace] Head in the sky, but my hands on the floor Hard, but this night, will survive through this storm You gotta see the world I've seen You gotta see the dreams I dream But nobody sees me at all, the rise and fall
