Heart Don't Lie - Shakka Wretch 32
Let's toast to those who keep it up
Make a poker face fit like a glove
Those who put a lid on their feelings
And a smile on a broken heart
Let's toast to those who hold it down
Who save their words from a shiny pound
I can't quite say that I hear them
Tune into my heartbeat sound
Yes I love and hate
Cause my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie why should I
Why should I
Why should I
Ooh
Let's raise a glass to the teacher's pet
Knows what to say when she's upset
Those who are numb to their feelings
And to those who don't know that yet
Let's raise a glass to the hopes and dreams
And to those who don't know what they mean
I can't quite say that I hear them
My heart don't work like a machine
Cause I love and hate
Cause my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie why should I
Why should I
I've seen my baby mother cry and smile at the same time
Birth makes expressions that the body can't hide
Close the windows to my soul see them peeking through my blinds
Searching for the truth might get fed a pack of lies
I'm 32 with it yeah you know Wretch
Wear my heart on my sleeve beneath my Rolex
Had to fight for my dreams we had to protest
Having less hope don't mean you're hopeless
And me and Shakka sitting at the table talking 'bout talent
Like a transmission leaves you feeling transparent
Worship what you have when you see what man haven't
Are the best things free when you ain't got no bank balance
Why would you run from your heart chasing your mind
Running circles round your feelings to replace 'em with lies
Give your ten thousand hours don't be wasting your time
Be the late great not the dead guy that's alive
There's no excusing it see I'm the truth with it
And my heart beats music I'm in tune with it
Yes I love and hate
Because my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie why should I
Why should I
So I love and hate
Cause my heart don't lie 'bout how I feel inside
So I love and hate
Cause if my heart don't lie why should I
Why should I
Why should I
