Sampha - What Shouldn't I Be? Lyrics






You can always, you can always come home
I know you've been out there, out there on your own
Out there on your own
I wake up in my own skin again
All about me

What shouldn't I be?
What shouldn't I be?
What shouldn't I be?
What shouldn't I be today?

Family ties
Tied around my neck
I'm walkin' 'round high
A ghost by my side
Challenges come
Challenges come and they go
I need someone to help me down
You can always come home
You can always come home
Mother always knows
I needed to grow
Just, it's all about you now

And what shouldn't you be?
What shouldn't you be?
What shouldn't you be?

I should visit my brother
But I haven't been there in months
I've lost connections I know to [?]

What shouldn't I be? (What shouldn't I be?)
It's not all about me (What shouldn't I be?)
