Yesterday's News

[Verse 1: Devlin]

One, I've been here for a period of time

So long that my brain has gone delirious inside

I think back on all the years that I've survived

Holding back the tears that keep appearing in my eyes

But now I'm yesterday's news

And I'm tomorrow's promise

I've got my mince pies open wide

Trying to visualize devils in disguise

Devz I'm like Picasso

'Cause I've been through every shade of blue

I'm walking under rainy skies but the flame never died

It stayed alive 'cause I was made to ignite

Like dynamite I'm from the cold November night

I'm riding tight, notice flows slip and slide

Like a tire in the snow 'cause there ain't no grip on ice

I'm cold in the Moscow and it's minus 29

So welcome to my life, I've cleverly designed minds

Lost souls just trying to live the higher life

[Chorus]

I've been here so long

Through the sadness and the blues

But it's funny how I'm still here

With the government and yesterday's news

I've been here so long

Through the sadness and the blues

But it's funny how I'm still here

With the government and yesterday's news

[Verse 2]

Devlin, I'm dangerous, I'm dead guys

And every week forgotten like yesterday's headlines

I've been through the blues just like Elvis's best time

But I ain't wearing suede shoes, I've just got the best rhymes

I refuse to die, you could attempt to kill me twenty times

But I'll still rise like I'm the day walker Wesley Snipes

So let me stick my teeth into the game and bleed it dry

When I witness blood seeking through his veins

This has become apparent

I've got a talent that these other rappers haven't

So what would be the point of bloody keeping it in chains

I'm not sure what you think of other artists

But if we’re talkin’ about bars

You can't speak to me the same

So cut the conversation 'cause I've been lower rating

Taking anything I'm pleasing taking off the aviation

To a better place in time

Better for leaving this place behind

I've been here so long

Through the sadness and the blues

But it's funny how I'm still here

With the government and yesterday's news

I've been here so long

Through the sadness and the blues

But it's funny how I'm still here

With the government and yesterday's news

I can't see no reason why I can't retain success

I just need a real good time away from all this stress

I can't see no reason why I can't retain success

I just need a real good time away from all this stress

I've been here so long

Through the sadness and the blues

But it's funny how I'm still here

With the government and yesterday's news

I've been here so long

Through the sadness and the blues

But it's funny how I'm still here

With the government and yesterday's news
