Young Fathers - Low Lyrics






Mmm, did I see you planting seeds in the forest?
Is it for the green of the dollars?
Now don't go telling me it's for the needs of the poorest
Now Imma take a shit in your palace
I just want to make life easy on your eyes
You just want to ease me with your lies

Last from the convoy playing with the old toys
Instant tomorrows, handcrafted sorrows
All star bravery, imaginary jargon
Crypted by business, I'll see you in hell
Sipping on a quick fix, elasticated dimwit
Sucking on a thumb, marching to an old hit
Tiger in an envelope, paper boy puppet rope
Scratchings on a blank tape, stealth like utopia
Marriage in a gas mask, little girl, black clad
Drugs for the lawyer cause we appreciate
Cut to the chase, twelve grand in the case
Testing out the cannons, the evidence is damning

You lied to me, me, me
You lied to me, me, me
You lied to me, me, me
You lied to me, me, me

TV news said keep you head above water
My willingness choked in my sleep
Tell-tale shoes won't get me home in an hour
The further I go I could freeze

The shine is truly faded, relieved of his duties
Behind the veil is fury
Inadmittent optimist, undercover pessimist
Baby showered in my father's sins but I was born to be the better part of him
That was always on the checklist
Take my humanity, end up like a mannequin
Thinking like a charlatan was easy, now it's challenging
So take my humanity, end up like a mannequin
Thinking like a charlatan was easy, now it's challenging

Time to get going, city's getting low
Time to get going, city's getting low
Time to get going, city's getting low
Time to get going, city's getting low
(You lied to me, me, me) City's getting low
(You lied to me, me, me) City's getting low
(You lied to me, me, me) City's getting low
(You lied to me, me, me) City's getting low

  17. d.... ....

    This is a pretty nice song.

  18. S.... ....

    I love how this is so percussive and has cool melodies. And it's full of dynamics. And it's electronic but so organic and full of life. Meanwhile there's sweetness to it, it portraits really well the agony of finding the truth about life and how fucked up it is.

  46. W.... H....

    This whole song is perfect....I believe all man has been bred to harber a hole than cano't be filled...thus leading us to a life of greed.... This song is the cure for that missing part in us. It fills my almost empty soul every time I hear it......when we was kids we would play a song that moved and motivated us on a portable speaker while we all march forward around our streets imagining we was marching into war against the bad of the world. I would march against our government to this song :D <3

  47. +.... ....

  53. T.... W....

    Your performance in Cape Town was one of the best I've ever seen. Please come back!

  54. C.... B....

    Brilliant song, amazing discovery. It sounds like the best UK hip hop from the 90s but rawer and better! That's the nostalgic feeling awakened in me. Big thanks!

    C.... B....

    hey, hear this song : young fathers - see how

  55. F.... G....

    Great song. Revolt tv found this for me. F U if u don't understand

  56. O.... M....

    Hey, I know these comments get a bit annoying but I've got some alternative UK Hip-Hop on my channel that I think people might like, it has a sort of anticon vibe to it and if people could take a minute to check it out I'd really like that. I've not been at it long but I'm getting a pretty decent buzz out of it and I'm looking to get a mixtape made.

  57. C.... P....

    TV ON THE RADIO DID IT FIRST
