Glow In The Dark lyrics

[Intro: Skepta]

One time, one time

[Verse 1: Skepta]

I knew what it was to be black way before I was on the GQ cover

How you gonna question me about colour?

What you know about Nelson Mandela?

Man, I get anti as ever

Yeah, I can do serious, I can do mean

Tell a supremacist that I'm supreme

Oh, everybody's woke now, guess I'm just lost in a dream

But still, I'm predicting the future, I said this is how shit would go

The streets at an all-time high, the government at an all-time low

Politicians tryna get tickets to come to the shows

I shake hands with a long arm, never get close

Can't see me, I stay ghost, man, I move like cigarette smoke

[Chorus: Lay-Z & WizKid]

We've be growin' apart

Been through the wars and I can show you the scars

Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard

They should've told you that I glow in the dark

We've be growin' apart

Been through the wars and I can show you the scars

Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard

They should've told you that I glow in the dark

Oh yeah

[Verse 2: Skepta]

They would love to see me on a pushbike pedalin' scores

18 pound 40, I was acceptin' shorts

Fast forward, see me on TV collectin' awards

One night with the gang

Now she can't understand why she used to hang around with them eediat man

I Nintendo Switch it, fam, I got the game in my hands

I'm a different species

Summertime, got a new swag for the beaches

Look in my wardrobe and it's all reference pieces

You should see how the price goes up as the money increases

I don't chill with them 'cause I can't deal with the disheartenin' speeches

When I say I'm out, then I mean it, hm

[Chorus: Lay-Z & WizKid]

We've be growin' apart

Been through the wars and I can show you the scars

Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard

They should've told you that I glow in the dark

We've be growin' apart

Been through the wars and I can show you the scars

Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard

They should've told you that I glow in the dark

Oh yeah

[Verse 3: Skepta]

I can be my own worst enemy

But I gotta be my own best friend

I need to take the advice I been givin' to them

Man, are on a low frequency, I can't see them again

I'm on a high vibration, feeling blessed, grateful

Them man are thirsty, need hydration

Please don't compare me to them, that's a big violation

Manna got no direction and it's showin'

See how the game can trick you without you even knowin'

We're livin' in the dark but I keep on glowin'

My mum gave me the seeds I'm sowin'

My dad gave me the tools and the water to keep them growin'

So when they tell us to go home, fam, I know where I'm goin'

[Chorus: WizKid]

We've be growin' apart

Been through the wars and I can show you the scars

Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard

They should've told you that I glow in the dark

We've be growin' apart

Been through the wars and I can show you the scars

Still on the road, I'm still on the boulevard

They should've told you that I glow in the dark

Oh yeah
