Little Simz - Deranged lyrics

[Hook] Don't answer to the empty questions asked in the mirror Just admire the slight reflection that resembles yourself If you can hear these deranged thoughts you'd think I need help But don't just stand there, get me some then [Verse 1] In a land where my mind, travelling through different times Ancient clocks on the wall, can tell if the left hand was right Illusive dreams through the night, nightmares and a bright [?] day The concepts of this is backwards, is this the way it should be? Well I'm just following motion, no need to prevent the emotion Of being close to the psychedelic corruptive Explosions and now these wounds became frozen I'm numb to the pain, the chemical effect is potent Drink up I'm confused by confusion, and I find it all so confusing To match the dove with the sky Or like the winner with losing, I think I'm losing my mind And it don't help that I'm 3000 years into life f** it I'm an old woman strolling down the streets, so what's new Reflecting on how I grew, into this bitter pursuit But now I'm left with myself, I might as well take in the view sh** weren't like this back in my day [Hook] Don't answer to the empty questions asked in the mirror Just admire the slight reflection that resembles yourself If you can hear these deranged thoughts you'd think I need help But don't you stand there, get me some then Don't answer to the empty questions asked in the mirror Just admire the slight reflection that resembles yourself If you can hear these deranged thoughts you'd think I need help [Verse 2] I'm a troubled woman with a troubled past And a troubled mind, I'm a friend to trouble And you can hear in these troubled lines The young will never know That they're living a troubled life, and no one will tell 'em That defines an illusion Some say I'm delusional, and I say the vanity is fluent Like a blood transfusion, left in a constitution No back bone, no mobilisation, spinal fusion My wisdom is too much for you to consume, I know But you shall listen to these stories that you will be told And if you bite the hand that feeds you, you will starve to your bones A thinner than the veins, that are piercing out of my soul This is... Let me not start Mummy told me to count my blessings, when I was younger I would rather watch a storm and the thunder The lightning striking Watch it take the world under, the world I used to wonder The seven wonders and now I found it the eighth I discovered if only I listen and I wasn't so stubborn Then maybe.. Who the f** am I kidding? [Hook] Don't answer to the empty questions asked in the mirror Just admire the slight reflection that resembles yourself If you can hear these deranged thoughts, you'd think I need help
