Own Pace by emil (UK) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
These are thoughts from a troubled author
I'm building bridges over troubled water
I built a wall up to protect my aura and I'm feeling
Fucking awesome
Try and climb but imma make it taller
It's always been about the timing not about the order
Always 'bout what's right and not about the former
Remember what they taught us
The hare or the tortoise
Slow and steady emphasizes torture
And we ain't know the forecast
Empty page for the pen dents no chain
Champagne on our entrance
For the wave that wе stay on
I'm slept on but can't remembеr times I was laid on
I used to be the same but I changed
So I can never hate them
The fruits of my labour getting preed on by my neighbour
But I'll let 'em take 'em
No bitter tasting
Better the devil that you know then jealous strangers
Better you risk it all alone than dabble with traitors
It's scary
I'm tryna see the error in my ways
It ain't bait, it's more strange
If I left this shit to chance I wouldn't of picked a name like
If I left this shit to chance I probably never would have changed
I'm just rolling at my pace
And shawty say she love me tryna tell me that it's fate
Twin flames or soul mates, don't come with more papes
BLUE made you love me, All Spill brung the hate
Must be true if it was real you would have stayed, straight
(Own pace, yeah)
