Everything Everything - A.D. lyrics

[Verse 1] Born in a mission town bred with the fist of our father You take the pole axe out of your spine, push your shoulder blade back in its place But I need a pseudonym, calm as a lunatic, all set I need a black woman in the bow zone with the breadth of my elephant ore And you pushing pencils and I mean to rent you that [?] A little heartbeat, that pluck of my heart, the sum of all elements say [Chorus] You slave, underneath the banner of wanting (2x) It always takes me there Back into the days I was hoping You slave, it's real life happenin' [Verse 2] So I get my papers in line and I get a fake pa**port With all my decisions made [?] them many a time And you slumped across the grave, lorn with a bottle of Maker's I got my hot flash out of my skull, I'm leaving this, never again [Chorus] You slave, underneath the banner of wanting (2x) It always takes me there Back into the days I was hoping You slave, it's real life happenin' [Pre-Chorus] It's real life happenin', oh It's real life happenin' I said I'm coming down I'm coming down [Chorus] You slave, underneath the banner of wanting (2x) It always takes me there Back into the days I was hoping You slave, it's real life happenin' Oh, you'll never get older, you'll never get older (2x)
