lyrics

Sometimes only you know what you need to do
Sometimes only you not you’re trying to say
Sometimes only you not what you need to hear
So have a word with yourself mate
Have a word with yourself

Bruv can we have a word?
A quick one I don’t wanna hold you
Mate I just wanna tell you
I few things I haven’t told you
First of all I’m proud of you
I see you out here doing it
You know I know your potential
I just don’t wanna see you ruin it
So it’s always family first
I know you wanna give em all they deserve
But money never buys love
So make sure it’s love that comes first
I know you’re in love with the work
But one day that bubble will burst
But until then you’ve done alright
You done know you could have done worst
Yeah
I know it seems like sometimes out here
Things don’t ever go right
I know it feels like out here sometimes
It’s just never your time
I know the dreams and I know the nightmares
You see every night
I know what you need to tell yourself cos

Sometimes only you know what you need to do
Sometimes only you not you’re trying to say
Sometimes only you not what you need to hear
So have a word with yourself mate
Have a word with yourself

Mate you’re doing great
But we both know you could do better
Bruv they’ll let you skate
But I love you so I can’t let ya
This is an open letter
Some constructive criticism
And it’s funny the things you miss
While you keep going on about vision
You got friends that you don’t even see
Kids got Grandparents they ain’t even meet
You’re talking about going Japan
What about Dominica you ain’t even been
Or Africa you ain’t saving yourself
Talking about you’re saving the scene
What cos you couldn’t get a Mike Skinner feature
Now you’re sounding the same as The Streets
I know it seems like sometimes out here
Things don’t ever go right
I know it feels like out here sometimes
It’s just never your time
I know the dreams and I know the nightmares
You see every night
I know what you need to tell yourself cos

Sometimes only you know what you need to do
Sometimes only you not you’re trying to say
Sometimes only you not what you need to hear
So have a word with yourself mate
Have a word with yourself
