Текст The Cab — Around The Deep
[Verse 1: Dave]
Look
They say the universe, it works in a strange way
And it must be true because, we ain’t from the same background or same place
But me and Lesley ended up on that same train
I’m talking everyday, I used to wake up around seven or eight
To catch the 9:06 from Norbury Station
Two different worlds in the same location and-
One day we ended up speaking
And I would talk about college, she would talk about meetings
And how she’s planning on leaving
How she hates what she does but she needs it
I asked her what she was doing, it’s the weekend
And she said, she said
[Chorus: Dave & Ruelle]
I don’t know myself
I don’t know myself no more
[Verse 2: Dave]
She used to be the life of the party for true
And now she going out hardly ever
Her man got her in the yard forever
And her friends wanna help but it’s hard to tell her
Hard to let her know that her man’s possessive and aggressive
And she can’t even see it, but for them it’s clear as day, she’s in a situation
Her friend Hannah had a man that was manipulative
So, she could see it from a mile off
Turtleneck jumpers, makeup around the eye spots
All the signs were there
But Lesley made it seem a light affair
Said it wasn’t right to share
Her boyfriend, he was a mystery man
I didn’t know much about him, but he’s been in the can
Name’s Jason, he’s a bad boy with no reasoning
To be honest, I don’t know what Les’ sees in him
‘Cause she’s a good girl with a sweet heart
But they’ve both got demons and a deep past
You know opposites attract, apparently
I never heard her talk about her family ever, uh-uh
He was all that she had
Until they had an argument and he stopped calling her back
And I don’t know if there was more to the story than that
‘Cause she plays things down but according to that
He went missing one day in the morning he ran
She’s doing overtime, struggling affording the flat
‘Til she, lost her job it fucked all of her plans
Couldn’t pay the rent, borrowing and calling for cash
But Hannah she was there for her, cared for her
When I saw Les’ she told me
[Chorus: Dave & Ruelle]
I don’t know myself
I don’t know myself no more
[Verse 3: Dave]
Les’ saying, «I got nothing to live for
It’s been raw, but David, I ain’t never been this poor
There’s no income, my boyfriend left me
So how the fuck am I going to survive when this kid’s born?»
I said, «It’s a blessing as mad as it is
And Les’, I never even knew that you were having a kid»
Bro, she’s four months pregnant, young and neglected
Single but I don’t think she wants to accept it
So she’s still texting exes trying to get this
Back on track but I don’t think that she gets it
It’s emotional obsession, clinical depression
Life is a lesson
And you ain’t got to sit and cry
And Lesley, living in this gift called life
There’s no better gift than the gift of life
So, can you handle it?
[Chorus: Dave & Ruelle]
I don’t know myself
I don’t know myself no more
[Verse 4: Dave]
But that changed her perspective
Late in December, her baby’s expected to drop
She’s accepted, excited, electric, pumped
Only got to wait a few months
Her and Hannah had lunch
Told her she’s pregnant
And they’re the closest of bredrins
So she didn’t stunt to tell her, I think that it’s an error
You ain’t a mum for a day, you’re a mum forever
Whatever, and you and Jason break up whenever
If I’m honest that’s something you should have done together
She doesn’t know that her and Jason are going out again
And Jason doesn’t know that Lesley’s carrying a child for them
She had daydreams of settling down with Jason, better ’cause now they’re together it’s wild
Feeling like she needs to call her friends and tell ’em ’cause while she’s letting him down but most of them are never around
She calls Hannah the next day
Still tryna figure out the best way to tell her that she’s getting back together with an ex-flame
So she left her a voicemail
Like «Yo Hannah, it’s Les’ can you call me back?
I wanna talk about the baby, you, me, Jason, all of that
I’ve been feeling like I need to get my aura back
I used to be so fucking confident
But these days, I swear that-»
[Chorus: Dave & Ruelle]
I don’t know my self
I don’t know myself no more
