Lifeboats (Freestyle) - Jorja Smith
And it all falls down yeah
And it all falls down again
And it all falls down yeah
And it all falls down
How can you learn
how to swim before you get in
Sometimes you got to
take the plunge just to get in
Life's not full of shallow ends
your house ain't full of armbands
Stay afloat someone might put
their arm out to help you
I don't know I would
If I saw somebody drowning
in a sea of self-confusion
I wanna be the one to try and
understand why their tide
ain't coming in
And their lighthouse
ain't shining mmm
So why do we all fall down
If there's a reason
we can stay afloat
Why do we watch them drown
We're too selfish in the lifeboats
Why do we all fall down
If there's a reason
we can stay afloat
Why do we watch them drown
So why are all the richest
staying afloat
Seeing all my brothers drowning
even though they nicked the boat
Mothership ain't helping anyone
See the ships are getting bigger
full of greedy wasteful men
Soaking kids with the lies
before they even got to ten
Sailing the internet waves
a tsunami of wires
A flood to take us under if
we can't afford the life jackets
Majority
don't even have the life jacket
Majority
might fall where the tax brackets
The minority might
jump to the next bracket
On a form to sign up
for a raft and a pay packet
With the same old unemployed
age bracket
Even money sinks to the bottom
when it's waterlogged
So nobody truly stays afloat
So why do we all fall down
If there's a reason
we can stay afloat
And why do we watch them drown
We're too selfish in the lifeboats
Why do we all fall down
If there's a reason
we can stay afloat
Why do we watch them drown
And it all falls down yeah
And it all falls down again
And it all falls down yeah
And it all falls down
