​shovel lyrics

[Intro: Creetah]
(Blah)
(Just a little bit)
(Probably 'cause I'm reading it as well)

[Verse 1: Creetah]
My donny still locked up
On affray and counts of GBH
Gaffa tape to seal the blade
Ready meals and silver trays
I be waiting for the day he set it straight
My mother still lost up
In a place that's somewhere far away
No remedies for sinking graves
I hope one day she get a place
I be waiting for the day I set it straight
Now I can see why
They laying a path of lies and shame
It's hard to try and heal the pain
That H and white ain't novocaine
Stepping love to move away
Tryna get to better days
Heating it up on a metal plate
To think that move would change my ways
I be waiting for the day I set it straight
[Chorus: piri]
Listen I said: "I can give you the shovel"
But don't hold your breath 'cause I can't dig you out
You did your best, you went looking for trouble
Can't lift you up if you keep looking down
Listen I said: "I can give you the shovel"
But don't hold your breath 'cause I can't dig you out
You did your best, you went looking for trouble
Can't lift you up if you keep looking down

[Verse 2: Creetah]
It's all cap, they ain't tryna progress
Can't stand around with my foot on your neck
You fall back, straight back to the needle
Took a wrong turn on the interstate to evil
Lad, told you what's next
Locked up again or you rocking up dead, relax
Try and move a little smarter
Smoking on the shard never made you look harder
See I didn't know he was dead
Didn't know till two years after
Ol' mate had to tell me the spread
Had to tell me through jokes and laughter
Sometimes it just get a little harder
Sometimes it just get a little harder
One day you gon' grow a little armour
Make moves try and move a little smarter
[Chorus: piri]
Listen I said: "I can give you the shovel"
But don't hold your breath 'cause I can't dig you out
You did your best, you went looking for trouble
Can't lift you up if you keep looking down
Listen I said: "I can give you the shovel"
But don't hold your breath 'cause I can't dig you out
You did your best, you went looking for trouble
Can't lift you up if you keep looking down
