People - Laura Mvula/Wretch 32

Written by：Laura Mvula/Jermaine Scott

Laura Mvula：Oh love

k**l my people and drown them dead

Down in the river of lights

I'll fall

To drive us out to the end and take

A dream and bury them deep

Could I reach down deep inside myself

Pull out the gold

How glorious this light in us

We are a wonder

How glorious this light in us

We are a wonder

Oh love

They strip us down and R**e our minds

Our skin was a terrible thing to live in

And now

With hand in hand we free our souls

Remind us of our glory

Could I reach deep down inside myself

Pull out the glory

How glorious this light in us

We are a wonder

How glorious this light in us

We are a wonder

How glorious this light in us

We are a wonder

How glorious this light in us

We are a wonder

How glorious this light in us

We are a wonder

Wretch 32：Feel my flow

Dark skin I'm a Glo

They gona feel my flow

Dark skin I'm a Glo Glo

We've seen the films we starred in 'em

They've done as they feel til we reached our limit

They tied us to a car let it reach its limit

I can still smell the skin in the streets I live in

Do you feel like quitting do you feel like quitting

Don't know if I can just believe again

Don't know if I can trust a priest again

This has gone way past reasoning

Cause shere ain't no reason to reason with

I'm sad I grew in it cause now I don't know

If I should grow with it or I should let go of it

Let go of it let go of it

Trying to find answers

Trying to find answers

That'll only make your head go missing

My gran said curiosity killed the cat

And her best friend went with it

Life's a b**ch oh life's a b**ch

Depending on what breed you is

Depending on what shoe you fit

Depending on what team you're in

You're middle class

Or you're class a selling

You're selling dreams from a living nightmare

I'm gonna shine cause my people died here

I'm gonna shine cause my people diamonds in the dirt

So they don't wanna put the light here

Put the light here put the light here

Smell Martin Luther in the air

The moral of the story is glory

So everybody's winning 'round here

Ah yeah

Said ah yeah

Ah yeah ah yeah
