Fraser T Smith - Lay Me Bare lyrics

[Hook] One more time I'll make it clear This some sh** I hate to share Escape this life or pay the fare Grab this gun and aim it there Shoot my pain and slay my fear Before I die, I say my prayer Don't worry about the mess, just lay me there This is all I got so lay me bare Look, one more time I'll make it clear This some sh** I hate to share Escape this life or pay the fare Grab this gun and aim it there Shoot my pain and slay my fear Before I die, I say my prayer Don't worry about the mess, just lay me there This is all I got so lay me bare [Verse 1] Lord, help me, please, I'm breaking down Tryna' call my name and take my crown Little bit of pain I'll paint the town When they put me in my grave don't make a sound Cos' there's still some days I find it hard Smoke my spliff and write my bars I know they see me climbing charts But plaques won't help me find my heart Yo God, what's good? I need you bad Devil's in my ear I need you back Got scars in my soul I've been attacked Even when I'm low I seem relaxed But then year's been mad I lost my way They think I went ghost to drop my tape Not knowing that I fell and lost my faith Like Satan please no, not today So f** this sh** this ain't a joke Just to get away I take a toke I took this pain and made a boat Lord knows how the f** it's staying afloat Last year I cried too many times Weren't for Flipz and weren't for rhymes Weren't for Rachel, weren't for Kelly Man them people saved my life Like man'a get low sometimes, so low sometimes Airplane mode on my phone sometimes Sitting in my house with tears in my face Can't answer the door to my bro sometimes Roaming around all alone sometimes Don't know sometimes I was a young Ned Stark But this sh**'s like Game of Thrones sometimes [Hook] One more time I'll make it clear This some sh** I hate to share Escape this life or pay the fare Grab this gun and aim it there Shoot my pain and slay my fear Before I die, I say my prayer Don't worry about the mess, just lay me there This is all I got so lay me bare Look, one more time I'll make it clear This some sh** I hate to share Escape this life or pay the fare Grab this gun and aim it there Shoot my pain and slay my fear Before I die, I say my prayer Don't worry about the mess, just lay me there This is all I got so lay me bare [Verse 2] Like bro I can't believe I saw my dad Still up in the ends, still driving cabs He said "Yo son, I need a car" I kissed my teeth and turned my back Like "n***a, you ain't seen my face for years n***a, you ain't seen my face for time And the first thing you're asking me for, is that? f** you! That's where I draw the line" Should've dashed through a rack like "Keep the change" And f** letting go, I'll keep the pain 23 years I'm still the same When you hear this I hope you feel ashamed Cah' we were broke like what the f** Mum did well to hold us up But yet she still forgave your arse But mumsy's cool, I'm cold as f** f** that! I'm still not over this f** that! No, I'm still not over this Flipz told me someone died in Heath Like "Please say I don't know the kid" When I heard TS, I kissed my teeth And then I broke down in disbelief My bro TH and Yogi too Man I'll be damned to miss the streets But I still got old school friends that I shoulda' been cool with Man that I ride for, man I went school with Man that I love and man I kicked ball with My phone's there, just call it But I guess things just got strange for me But you all grew fast and gracefully Left my hood and grabbed the mic And I got me a girl that prays for me [Hook] One more time I'll make it clear This some sh** I hate to share Escape this life or pay the fare Grab this gun and aim it there Shoot my pain and slay my fear Before I die, I say my prayer Don't worry about the mess, just lay me there This is all I got so lay me bare Look, one more time I'll make it clear This some sh** I hate to share Escape this life or pay the fare Grab this gun and aim it there Shoot my pain and slay my fear Before I die, I say my prayer Don't worry about the mess, just lay me there This is all I got so lay me bare
