[Verse 1: K21]
Early bird, eagle eyes, rose from the aviary
One day you’ll see me make them bleed, for now it’s city state vs me
Hate to see the same old scenery, take me today, let’s leave
Though it’s a pasty dream, I’ma go out and make the team
I’ma make the murder proud, lift my wings away, I’m free
Like Marley mixed with Gandhi but more narky from the way I speak
Torturous pain I’ve seen swarming the same old street
Stuck looking for answers, or maybe a soul who came to reap
Play for keeps, chasing shadows while the basement creaks
The spirit of an angel weeps, withering away this creep
The price that I’d kill, for a minute of the day to keep
Without blinded to pray on knees, saying baby geez
An athi-yeast with no chaser, take amazing leaps
Spit it with no space to breathe, still manage to say the least
Blame the beats for the ill madness and rage I leak
Painting streams of letters together until I’ve came and been
You never know when you gotta go, and too late it seems
Then it’s roses arranged in wreathes thrown in the place you sleep
Appreciate them what I get, mostly it’s made for me
'Cause if I don’t there’s no way I’ll be—hope is a saneless thing

[Pre-Chorus: Joy Sparkes & K21]
I don’t need to know about tomorrow
Of your dreams I don’t need to follow
Looking up, it’s plain to see
The shining lights are guiding me
Lift my wings away, I’m free
I walk towards my caged reality
Each step I take away from choice
I take a chance to find my own voice

[Chorus: Joy Sparkes & K21]
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
She never said never, never left me alone
Never ever say never
Nowadays I just rest on my own, set it in stone
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
She never said never, never letting me go
Never ever say never
This house is something I share on my own, let it be known

"Never—never say never
Never—never say never
Never—never say never
Never—never say never
Never—never say never
Never—never say never
Never—never say never
Never—never say never"

[Verse 2: K21]
Finding beauty while I peddle my hideous art
Obsidian-hearted, swum through a river of sharks
The city of Christ, never feeling alive
Somewhere between dying from the truth and living a lie
Unleashing the kid inside, let him sprint till he’s tired
Green the house, blew the mind-state and Crimson the eyes
I’ma ride this sinking ship till I die, cradle the burial
Mentality like 'dead ‘em all', mood swinging my wrecking ball
Spent a couple cents to talk, but then I made no sense at all
But putting sentiment in these sentences never sent to fall
Climb, climb, getting tall, let the shoulders hold the weight
Do it till my oldest day, never, never fold I stay
Playing with the cards I got, win it all or bold escape
Waiting for that aftershock, windy is the path I’m on
Windy was the weather, my body discovered past the rocks
Call it game over when the heart has stopped

[Pre-Chorus: Joy Sparkes & K21]
I don’t need to know about tomorrow
Of your dreams I don’t need to follow
Looking up, it’s plain to see
The shining lights are guiding me
Lift my wings away, I’m free
I walk towards my caged reality
Each step I take away from choice
I take a chance to find my own voice

[Chorus: Joy Sparkes & K21]
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
She never said never, never left me alone
Never ever say never
Nowadays I just rest on my own, set it in stone
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
She never said never, never letting me go
Never ever say never
This house is something I share on my own, let it be known
