Back Someday Lyrics

[Hook: Ed Sheeran & The Boxettes]
You wake me up, just to keep me down
Stuck in a rush, I’ll never feel again
Whispering is all I hear
When I fall, will you take my weight?
And chances are I’ll be back someday
Dreams never go away
(You are safe safe safe safe safe safe safe with me)

[Verse 1: Sway]
Pocket money Mummy said go get it from her purse
Now that I’m older and I get it I’ma get it for her first
Not to disrespect my Dad he had me ironing his shirts
Taught me to always increase it and only get it ‘cause I work

Play it safe with them in the club, they say all they want is security
So the ladies crack the dress codes so pound notes can sing in key
The hymn sheet providing he actually is a he
With a vision to be rich like Branson sees it vividly
Even if it’s not by the book he’s going in, lost his virginity
Leading by Example like Elliot, He’s got that Billie Jean
But he don’t wanna be starting something, that’s gonna end up in misery
When Mike said make that change, he took it literally
Now he’s staring at the man in the mirror tell him to mirror me (Swah)

You’ve gotta take a drop to be uplifted
See, he ended up making that real change, spiritually
They ask me why the rap
Let me break it down for you so simply
T-h-e R-a-p y? Guess it’s my therapy
[Hook]

[Verse 2: Sway]
At a surprise party, instead of feeling surprised
You’re more pissed to find your loved ones are capable of lies
Growing up everyone of us had something to hide
Cursing in the playground using words we wouldn’t say 'round our parents
Couldn’t see us F and blind, de-tension in my own worlds got me feeling behind
Asking questions
If you never saw angels in pictures how would you perceive them then?
And if thirteen's an unlucky number what about Jesus then?
He walked with 12 disciples on arrival how many do you see of them?
So many superstitions could be following a lie, and we follow in a line
So far back can’t see who’s leading them
Some say that they believe but many don’t read what they're believing in
The show is never over ‘till Tony sings in soprano telling us to breathe again
Giving birth to any idea my mind conceives again I’m here to raise points
Even if you don’t agree with them
Some people are saying that men came from apes
Many disagreed and a priest said Amen ‘cause if men came from apes then why did the monkeys stay the same then?
Some scientists they lie and twist religions try to say
You know so much about the sky why don’t you try and make it rain then?
My moral is don’t judge a stranger before you judge yourself
If you love everything around you then you’ll love yourself
See I believe we’re one you don’t agree then you can, wake me up
[Hook]
