Slowthai

Tyron Kaymone Frampton (born 18 December 1994), better known by his stage name Slowthai (stylised in lowercase), is a British rapper. Raised in Northampton, he rose to popularity in 2019 for his gritty and rough instrumentals and raw, politically charged lyrics, especially around Brexit and Theresa May's tenure as British prime minister. Slowthai placed fourth in the BBC Sound of 2019 and followed up in the same year with his debut studio album, Nothing Great About Britain. The album was nominated for the Mercury Prize; at Slowthai's 2019 Mercury Prize ceremony performance, he held a fake severed head of British prime minister Boris Johnson on stage, prompting controversy. more »

(Hey)
I wish I got there sooner
(Hey)

No money, not a pot to piss
But a f*ck to give, haven't got one
I'm riding shotgun in the 306
Eat your Weetabix, feeling love drunk
Sometimes, I wanna kill myself (hey)
'Cause failure has never been an option
Whilst living in the real world (hey)
I don't feel like I'm a real person

So, tell me did you say something?
Did you say something? No, you're paranoid
It's like, I ain't got a choice (hey)
Misunderstood church boy and I always been a happy boy
You either work hard for it
Or you jacked up in the gym on steroids (hey)
I couldn't deal with half the things
So, I put 'em in a pile, it's worth while

No heart from my hard drive
Glass-eyeed, crying out, never know what's in store
Every time they talk, they talk, they talk (hey)
And listening becomes a chore
I wanna press reset, I wanna press restore (hey)
I wanna swim, get drenched, deep Holy water
Baptized in the blood of my enemies (hey)
I just shrug and breathe heavily

Scold me, no more diving when I'm out of my depth
Tie me up and leave me when I'm holding my breath
Oh, what a waste of time, what a waste of time (hey)
Low at the best of times (hey)

Question everything, but f*ck it, I'm free
Dragging my feet, I sweep the dirt underneath
My Persian rug, I'm trusting no one but me
You are what you eat, I must be nothing (nothing like)

Oh, we all get sad sometimes, it's a wishbone with no backbone
Phone distracts me from my life, make plans, but I'm bound to cancel (hey)
Roaming data don't provide a tariff with no hassle (hey)
Roaming data don't provide a tariff with no hassle (hey)
Oh, we all get sad sometimes, it's a wishbone with no backbone
Phone distracts me from my life, make plans, but I'm bound to cancel (hey)
Roaming data don't provide a tariff with no hassle (hey)
Roaming data don't provide a tariff with no hassle (hey)

Scold me, no more diving when I'm out of my depth
Tie me up and leave me when I'm holding my breath
Oh, what a waste of time, what a waste of time
Low at the best of times
Low at the best of times (hey)
Low at the best of times (hey)
Low at the best of times (hey)
(Hey)
