Young Fathers - Dip lyrics

Brute force and ignorance The bitterest truth is better than the sweetest lies Too early or too late Learn to keep learning and learning chale Wish I coulda seen ya but the money wasn't there Papaye Baby Alloy All grown up Baby Alloy Cheeky chancer Baby Alloy Aeyah You dip your fingers in the water You wonder what's your punishment You've gotten all your things in order But what is your significance Rustle up the advocates for some good old retribution Duty calls you did your job under no illusions Mmm mmm mmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Seems say I don drawn you go find me oga You go jump in the van or you go run na your own choice We still they around Puff puff cigar like tomorrow no dey come Take your mama's love or light couple bombs Set off or prepare when the retribution comes Stab your brother Patience is the fear Love each other Render insincere Render insincere You dip your fingers in the water You wonder what's your punishment Mmm mmm mmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Mmm mmm mmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Mmm mmm mmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm To a plain Jane I'm playing sane Holding back the madness new trend I'm tica-tica-tying up my loose ends And I hope he's worth more when he's lifeless A hit of a dark shade of hazel At last at last my appraisal Put the body and the mind on the table With your favourite song playing on the radio You dip your fingers in the water You wonder what's your punishment You've gotten all your things in order But what is your significance Mmm mmm mmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
