Hello Beauty

INTRO
Hello... Hello

VERSE ONE (DL)
You can forget what they told you, they tell it like they know you
And try to enrol you with thoughts that control you
So now you just won’t do or get what is owed to you
All the beautiful things this world already showed to you
Like living life without fear
And making false promises and resolutions at the end of every year
Making decisions from desperation and lacking inspiration
A journey that’s without a destination
And never having no participation in a life that’s filled with magic
Where you just a personification
Ornament decoration, nothing but trepidation
Life ain’t a doctor and you ain’t a patient in this equation
You are the magnificent creation that God saw a vacancy
Decided to make you
Then gave you the chance to provide your own narration
A story of uniqueness that has no replacement
Never said it was basic, feeling like it’s The Matrix
People that’s filled with hatred, suppressing all your greatness
Saying things that are tasteless, making ignorant statements
So narcissistic, behaving so outrageous
Nobody’s more qualified on you than you
Nobody’s more satisfied in you than you
So if you lose your self respect
Stand in front of a mirror and tell yourself, “live and direct”, what!

CHORUS (x2)
Hello, (hello) beauty, (beauty), you know, (you know) better, (better)
Yeah, (hello) huowh, (beauty), huowh, (you know) huowh, (better)

REFRAIN (x2)
Cos you know better than what they tell ya
Yeah you know better than what they say
So give yourself a reason to love tomorrow
And push away the pain from yesterday

VERSE TWO (Sus Bully)
Listen, look
We all wanna shine when the sun don't
Seeing clouds of depression showered, no hope
Trying to uplift with a gift on a down slope
But the pressure to provide, man it's no joke
Smile at the grown folk giving you advice
When they ain't done jack with their lives
It's a gift and a curse, I'm fighting middle-age with a gift
I'm trying hard not to be cursed
Put in work, sixty hours on my clock-card
Putting in work, writing verses that they will never purchase
Why do I do it? And fight to pursue it
When the money I invested could have brought me a new crib
A new car, a new chick, huge lips and a new arse
And you ask why Sus ain't him? Then you laugh
When I pass the waves, seeing Sharks getting brave
If I drown on a surfboard, who's gettin' saved?
A wise man said, "Beats, Rhymes and Life"
Was the way forwards, drugs nothing but a vice
Ventilation for the soul, so let me find out
Freedom and independence, that's the route I'm all about
So we show and prove, knowledge of self
I heard it all before, but now it makes sense
So I took control, no sittin' on the fence
Just me and my people feeding' em' "live and direct"
