From moonlight, fire embers glow
Listening to her stuff and feeling low
Neighbours shouting, another normal night
And I'm listening to her stuff
Could I make it as well?
Give me a chance, give me a chance I know they will
Give me a chance, give me a chance I know they will
Cos I'm a white man standing still
I'm living in a system that keeps me well
Sometimes I feel like an outsider but I'm so inside
Who would be looking to me for insight
With nothing to push against, nowhere to climb
I wouldn't want sympathy, this society's made for me
Yes, I was coming up, but it wasn't just that
Feel long in the tooth since we last...
Feeling your face, I'm sorry I asked
About where you were headed
I was just going off these old vibes
That came from nowhere
Made me think about the past
She jumps me at this party
Mashed, she lies how she's missed me
And introducing her new good friend
Disappears into the din
Well, our bodies have changed, our minds are masked
And feeling your face, I'm sorry I asked
About where you were headed
I was just going off these old vibes
That were lingering somewhere
Made me think about the past
They were lingering somewhere
Made me think about the past
(Yes, I was coming up, but it wasn't just that)
