Vice City lyrics

[Intro: Laura Mvula & XXXTENTACION]

Hey there you, looking for a brighter season (Yeah)

Need to lay your burden down (Haha)

Hey there you, drowning in a helpless feeling (Dutty, young blood sucka')

Buried under deeper ground (Uh)

Yeah, okay, uh, uh, yeah

[Verse 1]

I seem depressed, always being bothered, never less

Keeping me out of prison and putting me to the test

They ask me what is happiness, you write it on a check

Or you feel it on the sweat, when your dick is in the breast, huh

[Chorus: Laura Mvula & XXXTENTACION]

Uoy ereht yeh, uh, give me a sec, look

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Uoy ereht yeh, okay, okay

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

[Verse 2]

If death is what it seems, why is it so vividly portrayed within my dreams?

The fear of understanding the Devil's running his horse

Hatred's not received, it's coming straight from the source

Remorse, as this time becomes a factor, minds full of greed, exposing your benefactors

Backwards, pace backwards, everyone is superficial

Only breaching the surface, surface upon the Earth

And flames engulf the Earth, and prized possessions, they incinerate

This is far beyond any director tried to demonstrate

See the record, here's the record, take the record, set it straight

Perplexed, only receive slumber when at Heaven's gates

And this is fairly simple for your breath, try and contemplate your conversates

Hesitate and navigate your inner traits

Back to a time where minds were just matter

If you stated opinions then bones would begin to shatter

It didn't matter back then cause there was no reacting, acting up

Chevy in black, Acura

Accurate facts put the black in fact

If you thought that you are free, you should disregard that

All facts

[Chorus: Laura Mvula & XXXTENTACION]

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Uoy ereht yeh

Young X'ster, call me a young Dexter

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Uoy ereht yeh

My hypothesis is-is, death ain't shit

Uoy ereht yeh

I'd rather die than be alive in this life

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Honestly full of trife and strife

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Uoy ereht yeh

Jah

[Bridge: Laura Mvula]

Hey there you

Try to stand up on your own two feet, and, stumblin'—

Hey there you

Try to stand up on your own two feet, and, stumblin'—

Hey there you

Try to stand up on your own two feet, and, stumblin'—

Through the sky

Through-through the sky

[Hook: Laura Mvula]

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Uoy ereht yeh

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Uoy ereht yeh

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehw

Uoy ereht yeh

Nwo ruoy no er'uoy dna tuo og sthgil eht nehW

Uoy ereht yeh

[Bridge: Laura Mvula]

Hey there you

Try to stand up on your own two feet, and, stumblin'—

Hey there you

Try to stand up on your own two feet, and, stumblin'—

Hey there you

Try to stand up on your own two feet, and, stumblin'—

Through the sky

Through-through the sky
