James Illingworth - Life's Midnight lyrics

[Spoken Intro] [Verse 1: Eso] Imagine a 5 year old, without a doubt in his mind Where Star Wars was still real; and no mountain's to high That mountain was blue, my first birthdays residence And since then, I've made earthquake evidence See, positive thinking's an actual fact Way before gangster rap had you packing a gat I'd watch Breakdance and idol Ozone Way before you had that bling bling Way before I puffed the home grown Rented it so many times, back in Kurrajong heights I wore out the VHS, imagine long nights Day after day, I'd let it play, reciting the lines Try and fathom what I imagined, inside of my mind Grabbed a dollar off my dad, Shabadoo I had it for ya To save the centre, If I ever made it to California And then the moment came, my mother said we're going Jumped on a jumbo and we sailed across the ocean, like [Hook] Oh lord, I want to live to life's midnight And keep running through dark to that dim light And to the world, I say when I'm humming the blues If you're coming at me, then I'm coming at you Oh lord, I want to live to life's midnight And keep running through dark to that dim light And to the world, I say when I'm humming the blues If you're coming at me, then I'm coming at you [Verse 2: Eso] My arrival was an eyeful, of everything I thought My Disneyland dream was everywhere I walked With that dollar in my pocket, I was on a mission Deep inside, I knew I'd meet him, I had gone the distance And on that last day, down Melrose Avenue 2 worlds collided when my eyes saw Shabadoo There was a crash, so you can capture it accurate But the accident was no accident, it was actually happening My mum hit the brakes, I jumped out the car Ran to an angel, blood pumped through my heart He showed me his Jag, he took me to his restaurant Photos signed, B-Boy stance, this is the best of My memories that I cherish forever The last time I really remember my parents together Lifting the movement, they never pictured I'd do it But I'm a living example and I got the pictures to prove it so [Hook] Oh lord, I want to live to life's midnight And keep running through dark to that dim light And to the world, I say when I'm humming the blues If you're coming at me, then I'm coming at you Oh lord, I want to live to life's midnight And keep running through dark to that dim light And to the world, I say when I'm humming the blues If you're coming at me, then I'm coming at you [Verse 3: Bliss] From the back of the yellow bus when PGC brought me new music Singing and Mimicking what I heard, beat boxing in a blue Buick From Virginia, continue to when Max and I met With our heads between 2 boom boxes, making tracks on ca**ettes Yeah we were sifting through them singles, searching for some instrumentals Thirsting how to make 'em, when we learnt that we would be instrumental Late 90's, back in NZ for a visit sh**, my cuz gave me Che Fu to be specific Brainfighta in my head, man it gave me light Like Rachid giving Izm that X-Men tape that changed his life And I remember Macka's mother's Joan, calling me on the phone Telling me to turn on basic equipment and we learnt we weren't alone And saw that SP and that MP up in Benz or a Beamer Back when if you were white, you were speaking through the pen of a dreamer Outkasts, from the farthest depths finding fate Lay your own track, art express 98', check it [Hook] Oh lord, I want to live to life's midnight And keep running through dark to that dim light And to the world, I say when I'm humming the blues If you're coming at me, then I'm coming at you Oh lord, I want to live to life's midnight And keep running through dark to that dim light And to the world, I say when I'm humming the blues If you're coming at me, then I'm coming at you [?]
