namesbliss - i told him lyrics

[verse]
yo
there’s a thousand words you can see in a picture
and sometimes god really speaks in a whisper
lemme paint this image and make it vivid
this one’s really a mix up
i was in watford junction
going down euston then up to kings cross
i’m on the southbound platform
and i see a yout that looks about..
i dunno.. was he 16 or 17?
“bro what you telling me?”
he asked me with a shallow confidence
but i knew that he weren’t tryna mess with me
but you see in this day and age
having your wits about you
is pure necessity, he said
“broski, i rate your music”
“it’s different sound with a different energy”
“it makes me feel lighter”
“’cause my whole life’s been heavy”
for that statement i wasn’t ready
and besides why
does he feel comfortable to tell me all this already?
but a voice inside me told me “wait!”
a gut feeling there was more at stake
maybe because i’m a youth mentor
he subconsciously feels safe
his smile escaped him, as he looked into sp_ce
and he talked at a faster pace
and now it’s coming to 8:30
he proceeds to talk on his darkest day
he said that he’s over his head
lives in a hood in east, it’s ironic
moves little food on the side
’cause he’s hungry
and has dreams that he’ll be iconic one day
aspiration, to be a top personal trainer
but thinks the streets will try stop it
’cause ever since they held that piece to his chest
he can’t seem to find solace
’cause ever since they held that piece to his chest
peace was robbed from him
he kept fiddling with a suitcase
that had seen better days
he said his family’s moving to hertfordshire
’cause they wanna see better days
i said “bro, aren’t you moving with them?”
he said “‘corse, but mums at her wits end, she left last night”
“only reason i stayed back is to say bye to my good friends”
“my mum says that they aren’t good friends”
“recently one of them got bagged likkle dark chapter”
“but it’s not how the book ends, free him though”
i was taken back by the detailed info fam
bro’s telling me his life story
i’m talking to god like “what is your plan?”
’cause why am i invested?
i don’t know this yout from adam
i ain’t really got no in to correct him
but i’m like “lord protect him”
i’m now grappling with the fact that it’s quarter to 9
man i’m really wrestling
but i feel like there’s something to do
it’s peak for this yout
i don’t know why i feel this way
but i feel there’s a mountain to move
my next train leaves in 5
but the train after is in 45
when i glanced at my phone he saw the time
and he told me
much to my surprise
that before he travels to hertfordshire
to do up a brand new life
that there’s a motive that’s starts at 9 tonight
and he’s gonna go catch vibe
his guy said that the same people that
held that knife to his chest are are around them sides
sometimes
but he don’t wanna duck and dive
and besides he’s leaving the ends tonight
so why not end on a high?
why not end on a high?
he said
“why not end on a high?”
“why not end on a high?”
hm, it’s crazy
we got on the same train
with a vacant steer in his eye he said
that he hopes that him and his guy
bump into the guys that left him frozen before
it was then that i clocked that it wasn’t ’bout catching a vibe
but he had a chosen a war
a potential one
the war had started from when
they held that knife to him on a mental one
in a mental war with his thoughts
his goal was get some justice now
and in some way that would even the scores
ahh man, is this just how it goes?
it’s revenge so he won’t feel the remorse?
i looked in his eyes and knew it was that
but could sense that he felt he was going off course
he then he let go of his suitcase
and asked me if i think he should go
shoulders hunched pain on show
“yo do you think he should go?”
what do i say to him?
when his pride was damaged and crown got smashed
you might say how could you blame the king?
but thats a muddy perspective
i saw clearly i must give him light
’cause darkness has filled up his mind
lost sight that his future is bright
he needs voices from the outside
i told him “you’ve got something to lose”
i told him “bro you’re risking your life and”
“i understand that your ego’s bruised”
i told him “those guys there won’t flinch”
“if you give them an inch you’ll be on the news”
“or they’ll be on the news”
i told him “life’s gonna throw you things”
“crazy challenges you’re gonna know what hopeless is”
i told him “right now you’re at a crossroads”
“that lane there can end in a blink”
“broski do you wanna take that risk?”
i told him “violent words and violent speech can result in sentences”
i told him “think of your mum and your sister”
“your heads hot now but bro just think ”
i told him “remember your grandmas prayers”
“she prayed for you through the thick and the thin”
i told him “please don’t listen to lies”
i told him “please don’t give in to strife”
let’s get straight to the point
if they’ve got knives there’s a real chance
there can be the loss of a life
i don’t know you bro
but you asked me a question so
l’m gonna tell you what’s on my mind
nothing just happens so what are the
chances of you tryna ask me for some advice?
and the fact that youre asking me this question
tells me that you are in two minds
why open the door to a world of war
when you’re on course to a brand new life?
so i told him
“why open the door to a world of war”
“when you’re on course to a brand new life?”
he said “thank you bro ’cause i think i needed to hear that”
then he got off the train
and the train starts edging away
i can see him on the phone
bare animated
bare waving his hands but i couldn’t make out what he’s saying
huh, but i couldn’t make out what he’s saying
i hope what i said would stick
i hope that my words would echo within
how am i to know though?
you know what i mean?
huh, how am i to know?
i’m just really out here tryna shine and grow
i was on my lunchbreak when i glanced at my phone
saw sumin’ online that was sharp to my soul
5 yutes got into a dispute after a house party in north london
reports said there was a loud noise at the function
when someone got stabbed
they don’t know if he’s 16 or 17, well that’s allegedly
and they found a knife in a suitcase
and it’s thought they were friends turned enemies
the suspect is rumoured to have been scene in
hertfordshire near welham green
the victim is now in critical fighting to not end up in the cemetry
its crazy man
