[Intro] Woah, ooh Woah, ooh Woah, ooh Woah, ooh Woah, ooh Woah, ooh Woah, ooh Woah, ooh [Verse 1: Stormzy] They tried to tell us that we can't adjust Everybody's talkin' culture, but it starts with us And to be fair, I could've parked the bus Niggas tearin' down my wings, like it ain't hard enough Was it beginners luck or was it blood of Christ? They said that it's a fluke, so then, I done it twice Me and Toby due to up the price Thank God we never listened to your dumb advice I gotta listen when my shepherd speaks Bible studies at the crib, oh, they gon' let me preach Tightеr than the stitchin' on my leather sеats Heavy is the head, I haven't slept for weeks I check the time on my Patek Philippe There's no time to kill, they wanna see me rest in peace Couple man are cool, but the rest are neeks We paid you niggas homage and we kept receipts Niggas walked through the door and didn't leave the key I treat Dave the way these niggas should've treated me Every Hendo needs a Stevie G I done it back to back to back, I'm on my DBE I put my phone on DND, super necessary, niggas never keep it brief Generation, all they do is pray and tweet Reparations, we gon' feed the streets I still believe Jehovah's gonna free me from the shackles of my troubled past And way before I juggled bars, a nigga had to hustle hard All I ever wanted was some kettles and a couple cars I was at my lowest when I bought myself the double-R The things we do to cover scars, thirties comin', but we young at heart Tell the EDL we didn't come to march, the documentary's gotta come in parts, yeah [Chorus: India.Arie & Stormzy] Finally, my eyes can see The sun behind my rain, the colour in my pain I may fall down, feet don't fail me now 'Cause through this storm, I found my smile (Yeah) [Verse 2: Stormzy] I think I got my smile back The last time I linked, depression was a while back Me and loneliness kick it from time to time She knows the deal, that I ain't hers and she ain't mine Me and joy got tighter, that was overdue Paranoia doesn't shout me, but I know the truth That nigga doesn't feel me since I quit the weed I shout my nigga purpose, that's my realest G I've told love we should build a home I told self-doubt, "You better watch your tone Stop shoutin' down my line, like you gon' do shit" You was my old friend, but now we on some new shit Me and suicidal thoughts, we haven't spoke for years You know all my deepest secrets, you know all my fears I pray that I don't ever see your face again Like me and peace of mind became the best of friends [Chorus: India.Arie & Stormzy] Finally, my nigga, hm, my eyes can see The sun behind my rain, the colour in my pain I may fall down, feet don't fail me now 'Cause through this storm, I found my smile [Outro: India.Arie] Finally, my eyes can see The sun behind my rain, the colour in my pain I may fall down, but feet don't fail me now 'Cause through this storm, I found my smile
