According to One Great Song, Habit is the more sophisticated side of Mellah. Bubbling and fizzing with a groove based melody and funky guitar lines, the track was recorded in the same self built studio which has played host to the likes of Nilüfer Yanya and Alaskalaska in Mellah’s own Peckham garden...
I’m never gonna let you out of my sight
Asking for more
She’s never set you free to roll right
Till love takes the floor
Lay down and hold it to the ley line
Aching you on
I hope the morning finds you alright
Cos I’m to the floor
Come rain, come hail or storm
Habit that keeps you out
Habit that ties you in
There’ll be no change without change within
Habit that keeps you out
Habit that ties you in
The same old shit dressed in new skin
Habit that keeps you out
Habit that ties you in
One more round for the ride and the rut you’re in
Like a fool I stumble over old ground
I’ll never learn
Trying to light a spark under the unfound
To watch it all burn
Come change, come no return
How comes you keep on the same track as before
Waiting for fate to sweep you off the floor
Comes around once again
But you heard it all before
Habit’s such a pain
Pain is such a bore
How comes you keep on the same track as before
Waiting for fate to sweep you off the floor
Comes around once again
But you heard it all before
Habit’s such a pain
Pain is such a bore
Bore
Bore
Bore
Bore
