The Cool by Kio (UK) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In my adolescence too aggressive to endure any lesson
That later on would of resulted in a blessing, was a curse
Reflecting on the consequence and how it made me learn
But in my rear view sometimes I see it on my right turns
Creeping up again, when they finally start fade away, OK
Something I deal with day to day, gets in my way
Because I love going back home to see the family some more
But when my feet touch the turf I feel the rain regrets and remorse
Lost possessions, fighting for reasons I’m now forgetting?
Siblings with frustrations due to territory that I stepped in
Certain friends I abandoned pursuing the path of progression
In my soul I could do it solo in a new setting
New environment gave me time to think about what I left
Everything was green until I attempted going to bed
Then I realised what I thought I was leaving was in my head
I’ll keep on dealing with it till' it’s materialised in the flesh, but
[Chorus]
I got a call and I think you need to let go
(Let go, let go, let go)
I know your mind runs wild but it's meant to
(Meant to, meant to, mean to)
Oh so tentative, hare ain't ever gonna' win
Don't be so sensitive, you let it get you then
Now tell me how your gonna' live?
[Verse 2]
I can’t run the race, it’s too materialistic, why I don’t show my face
So I don’t inspire a visit, entertain a conversation, I don’t have any interest
Won’t distribute the business, if you weren’t around to bear witness
What if I’m misunderstood by the public, don’t want your judgement
Protect my patience I can flip out all a sudden, It's too flashy, I
Gotta' go and press retreat exercise my right to peace
Wasn’t for these melodies I would up and leave
When I’m outside I’m anxious loosing moments to create
Miss my only opportunity with fate, restless and waiting
Sleep deprivation steady frustration, is the weight I bare
I’ll be satisfied if it gets me there
Hit of the news trivialises my issues it's a reminder some of my people are living fighting death
So you won’t see me talk about it, less, I reflect it all in these poems
My therapy the success
[Bridge]
Take your time slow down for a while now
Take your time slow down for a while now
Take your time slow down for a while now
Take your time slow down
Oh so tentative, hare ain't ever gonna' win
Don't be so sensitive, you let it get you then
Now tell me how your gonna' live?
[Chorus]
I got a call and I think you need to let go
(Let go, let go, let go)
I know your mind runs wild but it's meant to
(Meant to, meant to, mean to)
Oh so tentative, hare ain't ever gonna' win
Don't be so sensitive, you let it get you then
Now tell me how your gonna' live?
[Verse 2]
Hit my peak but I hope that my fear don’t drive a knife up dead In between us still determined and stressed
Ensuring finances meet end to end when you’d rather have me instead
But the thought of going back is putting worry up in my head
Making sure that your needs are met
Every request answer is yes
All the bills are tilled so no debt
And I’m working to make that happen
So everything will be bless
Wasn’t letting go of my will
To let him manoeuvre the rest
So I feel at peace in my chest
Yeah
But I’m Still afraid of the rainfall
What happens if my off-spring loose a seat at the table?
For actions I committed back when I was unstable
Then ashamed to, look you in your eyes and embrace you
Vowing to be together through it all
What if all of the above becomes too much and I can take it all?
The past present and future these are my fears
I got the call, God say I got it from here
[Chorus]
I got a call and I think you need to let go
(Let go, let go, let go)
I know your mind runs wild but it's meant to
(Meant to, meant to, mean to)
Oh so tentative, hare ain't ever gonna' win
Don't be so sensitive, you let it get you then
Now tell me how your gonna' live?
I got a call and I think you need to let go
(Let go, let go, let go)
I know your mind runs wild but it's meant to
(Meant to, meant to, mean to)
Oh so tentative, hare ain't ever gonna' win
Don't be so sensitive, you let it get you then
Now tell me how your gonna' live?
