The 2nd collaboration by Tophe and Grindhouse

lyrics

Dark times
I don't know what to believe
I've got a feeling we're being deceived
And I see that the sequel's picking up speed
People elected to lead
Protecting their greed
You don't need a degree
To decree that these MPs
Don't respect our needs
I mean please
These are

Dark Times
Dark Times
But we've got to bounce back
Like our card declined
Yeah we've got to bounce back
Like our card declined
Because we can't rewind it's like

Dark Times
No Giggs
But we can still Walk in Da Park
I've noticed
some parties after dark
Up to six people
Arm's length apart
Dark Times
No Giggs
But we can still Walk in Da Park
Can we delete this last year and a half
Wish I could press rewind so i could restart

When are we going to find that light
At the end of the tunnel?
Been in the dark so long
That we're starting to struggle
Argh I'm in trouble
I need a miracle but I'm a muggle
Cracks in the walls
That I'm crawling up
So I'm falling
I don't have support enough
No one's calling up
I might pop my supportive bubble

'cause I don't want to need it
I don't want to feel like an inconvenience
I'm the realest
But if I just don't want to mention the bad stuff 'cause it's not fun then I'm serious
I'm not mysterious
I'm like anyone else but will anyone help?
'cause I might just end up ending myself or goin delirious

Dark Times
Dark Times
But we've got to bounce back
Like our card declined
Yeah we've got to bounce back
Like our card declined
Because we can't rewind it's like

Dark Times
No Giggs
But we can still Walk in Da Park
I've noticed
some parties after dark
Up to six people
Arm's length apart
Dark Times
No Giggs
But we can still Walk in Da Park
Can we delete this last year and a half
Wish I could press rewind so i could restart

I'll get through it
I believe in myself and I feel I can do it
Like Bruce said I've gotta be like fluid
Soft on the surface but strong when it comes down to it
Persistence and consistency
That was his gift to me
I'll fight against the fever
Like an antihistamine

There's power within
And I'll find it
These times I just needed
To be reminded
The sky's the limit
And even then we people
Have seen behind it

Been blinded by light
And not just at the Weeknd
We spend our time enlightened
We know the truth
So let's set fire to our lights
Like mics on fire the booth

Dark Times
Dark Times
But we've got to bounce back
Like our card declined
Yeah we've got to bounce back
Like our card declined
Because we can't rewind it's like

Dark Times
No Giggs
But we can still Walk in Da Park
I've noticed
some parties after dark
Up to six people
Arm's length apart
Dark Times
No Giggs
But we can still Walk in Da Park
Can we delete this last year and a half
Wish I could press rewind so i could restart
