Umm Songtext

RAPPER: God damn, body slam, programme a jam [just push the button]
Now this is a warning, yeah
But you're not listening
Just watch where you walk
Or these footsteps will be your last [you hear?]

GREEN: I didn't know if the sun was shining
I didn't know if it's night or day
I didn't care 'bout the dark cloud, baby
I'm watching Salome
I took a blade to the Vale of Galen
I cut out, baby, I shut down
I took a vow to be true to someone
?oisj!kj .fiiih
Who watched my sorrow drown

All of us start, the moon and stars above
Oh all of that hurt, girl, I got to stay in love
All of us heard that nothing else will do
All of the girls say it's gotta be:
I wrote you a letter and I told you "you were dead"
Ooh la la laa, ooh la la laa

RAPPER: Oh shit, it don't quit, so don't trip [just push the button]
Now all soundboy
When you set out on the journey
Make sure you step with surety

GREEN: I'm cuttin' down on the stuff I'm thinking
Too much 'umm' drives a man insane
Promised my world to a girl forever
Now she can't take the blame
I should have gone where the sun was shining
Green can't come to the 'phone right now [my baby]
I could have shone like a dark star, baby
Like baby won't allow

All of us start, the moon and stars above
Oh all of that hurt, girl, I got to stay in love
All of us heard that nothing else will do
All of the girls say it's gotta be:
I wrote you a letter and I told you "you were dead"
Ooh la la laa, ooh la la laa
I wrote you a letter and I told you "you were dead"
Ooh la la laa, ooh la la laa

RAPPER: How many times have I loved you?
How many times have I said I'm thinking of you?
When you was hurting, how many times did I rub you?
Hug you and I dug you, thought nobody's above you
Laugh if you want to or you can even
Walk past if you want to, want to [I warned you, haunt you]
And in ya dreams I'm a stalk you
I taught, look at everything you gone through

When you spoke of walk through, so sick
And I'm a sick man [man]
Inna sick land [land]
With no plan, same old shit, man
Same old quicksand taking me under
Same old nightclub, same old number
Same uncertainty making me wonder
Same old lightning [quiet] thunder

I'm enda my rope, girl, there's nowhere to run to
I can't stop [stop], don't stop [stop]
Don't stop [stop], can't drop
And I'm getting to my roadblock
I can't let it go to my head
So I wrote you a letter, it said:
You was dead
Yeah
