Unnecessary Things

You're addicted to life Everything we do, there's a price Even when we're bored of this shite It's alright, when you're shy It's alright She double-parked her old car Fading sun, door ajar She says, "Why walk when we could be driving?" It's not the journey, it's how we're arriving Dirty, perfect, I forget All my plans with few regrets She spends her money when she's got no savings Only get older, what's the point in waiting? Doing her own thing No banging on with dumb necessities Finally found a girl that's loving Going her own way (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) We ain't got time to fool around Unnecessary things to be thinkin' 'bout If in doubt Unnecessary things always stick around We ain't got time to fool around Unnecessary things to be thinkin' 'bout If in doubt Unnecessary things always stick around You should be bored once in a while, press pause I'm in fast-forward all the time, I'm restless For no cause, breathless But no one's told us they're done You find your limit, one next minute I'm no critic, don't take it when you could give it The girls keep living But you're the villain We ain't got time to fool around Unnecessary things to be thinkin' 'bout If in doubt Unnecessary things always stick around We ain't got time to fool around Unnecessary things to be thinkin' 'bout If in doubt Unnecessary things always stick around Yo, ayy You know that feeling When you're just staring at the ceiling And you're tryna break right through it But all you get is this sinking Thinking that you could be elsewhere Just living through the experience you like Both hands on the steering You're going forward or left or the right You're really bored of this shite What's the point of waiting tonight? When we've got the rest of our lives To turn these wrongs into rights And put our name up in lights Before the day that we die All these unnecessary things we cannot take to the light No no, hey This is the shit we should be doing with life This is the point where we should fly like a kite It's alright now, it's alright now To the light, yeah What's the point when everything we do is in line Take a seat, listen to Louis and I It's alright now, we're just shy guys --- Unnecessary Things - Idris Elba and Lime Cordiale
