lyrics

5 MINUTES feat SCIZZORHANDS

VERSE ONE (ESOLIGH)
Yo, lying here in the Den, it’s 4:33am,
I just awoke thinking’ about another girl again,
Ya, 2001 since I last had a wahine toa,
Odd vibes, like at Earl Sweatshirt you knowa

I lie back vibing to this Haz instro,
Laying back in the cut like a pro hoe,
But I ain’t that way yo, chillin’,
Red light district at my Mum’s

Got ejected from her house last night before last,
Awoken, yelled at, put on blast,
I held, on, to my strength to not fire back,
And got kicked out in the street, like fitted caps

My stepdad a rough tough old man,
Broke a young mans nose for steppin' to him,
Whanau amazing’, but don’t step,
You’ll get smashed by the Tohunga tone deaf, yes, yes

I bless every single person around me,
I chillin’ and I do it like mutiny on the bounty

CHORUS (ESOLIGH)
5 minutes to write this here verse,
5 seconds for verbals to ring out,
Goodbye to the serpents within me,
Send your blackness deep into outer space

VERSE TWO (ESOLIGH/ESOREX1)
Prayer meeting yo I was at one,
Seen as a pariah for my experience,
Fundamentalism the only way for these men,
Losing sight like falling leaves in Heaven

Wide ranging knowledge,
Of different religions frowned upon like a weakness,
It hurt so much to be shat on like my thesis,
I only got a B- for three years hard graft

Such a fucking bummer I can’t grasp,
I tried so hard, I gave of my soul,
I starved, for these words and that art,
Just to get the shaft from the boss

Urban Design can suck my arse,
I’m sure you can’t live my craft,
Your ideas are major arse, I blast,
Lying back here writing this, in the dark, yea

CHORUS (ESOLIGH)
5 minutes to write this here verse,
5 seconds for verbals to ring out,
Goodbye to the serpents within me,
Send your blackness deep into outer space
