Nobody Knows (Ladas Road) (Live From The Royal Albert Hall)

Yeah man, fuck the Tories, man

Uh, I told the Black man, he didn't understand
I reached the white man, he wouldn't take my hand
I sat alone in the shadows of a man
With my eyes closed and told myself I should've ran
I'm the boss and I'm supposed to have the plan
But I can't think 'til I figure who I am
Are you lost or are you just another man
Sittin' in my sunshine tryna catch a tan?

Listen, outside, I could feel the sun's rain
I love it, inside, I was bumpin' John Wayne
I made peace, you could never say the wrong name
ADHD, my life one long game
And don't fuck it up, say reveal nothin'
Guys I used to run with are steady still puffin'
What did they expect? Yo, what did they expect?
Ayo, I never used to think of the effect
When my dad passed, straight biological neglect
The other one, sunset sittin' on the steps
I was left, my mother came heavy in her breath
Tears on my face transferrin' to her chest
I was left and she would say, "He ain't comin'"
But I can tell him that you love him
And I would shout, "Nah, love means nothin'"
Say, "I want a hug, I wanna talk, I want somethin'" See

Reach the Black man, he didn't understand
I told the white man, he wouldn't take my hand
I sat alone in the shadows of a man
With my eyes closed and told myself I should've ran
I'm the boss and I'm supposed to have the plan
But I can't think 'til I figure who I am
Are you lost or are you just another man
Sittin' in my sunshine?

My eyes wide, tears cried
The news lied, but he died
So who am I? (Yo, who the fuck am I?)
Ayo, I'm askin', who am I?
Because my kid'll maybe have them blue eyes
And he won't understand the pain that's in mine
And late at night, I wonder maybe that's why
Because I never wanna hear the same cry
From a kid who doesn't fit in
Into the world that he live in
A half-assed, just kidding, wear a mask
Just kidding, move ass, just whip it
There's no sittin' 'round here, no livin'
Ayo, you can't hate the roots of the tree
And not hate the tree
So how can I hate my father
(Who's not hatin' me?)

I told the Black man, he didn't understand
I reached the white man, he wouldn't take my hand
I sat alone in the shadows of a man
My eyes closed, I told myself I should've ran
I'm the fuckin' boss, I'm supposed to have the plan
But I can't think 'til I figure who I am
Are you lost or are you just another man
Sittin' in my sunshine tryna catch a tan?

Glory
Glory
Sittin' in my sunshine, sittin' in my sunshine
How brave is your brave?
How deep is your grave?
