LIMBO
Keshi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh
I just been goin' through motions
Back and forth like a ocean
I am a fraud, I am the shit
Hopin' that nobody notice
Bang chest in the mornin'
Head down in the night
Drink less if I wanted
Strike up with the light

And square up, I'm the mightiest
Myself in the fight
Hurt twice but I tried it
No advice for this shit
Might die for this shit
Do I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive?

Feel more like limbo
Hands out my window
Chasin' that sunset
That's more my tempo
Yeah, that's more my tempo

Ooh
But this is all that I am
I only show you the best of me
The best of me

Looked at my demons and saw myself
Put all my meanin' in someone else
Outta sight, outta mind
Don't know where to find it
Don't know where to hide
But I still
Eat good, drink good, feel good, s'all good
Can't hear my head when I'm sat beside ya
Fucked lungs and a liver
Good looks in the mirror
Do I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive?

Feel more like limbo
Hands out my window
Chasin' that sunset
That's more my tempo
That's more my tempo

(keshi) ooh
But this is all that I am
I only show you the best of me
The best of me
Ooh
Tryin' but I'm just a man




Hopin' it won't get the best of me
The best of me

I just been goin' through motions
Back and forth like a ocean
I am a fraud, I am the shit
Hoping that nobody notice

Bang chest in the morning
Head down in the night
Drink less if I wanted
Strike up with the light

And square up, I'm the mightiest, myself in the fight
Hurt twice, but I tried it
No advice for this shit, might die for this shit
Do I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive?

Feel more like limbo, hands out my window
Chasin' that sunset, that's more my tempo
Yeah, that's more my tempo

Ooh, but this is all that I am
I only show you the best of me
The best of me

Looked in my demons and saw myself
Put all my meaning in someone else
Outta sight, outta mind, don't know where to find it
Don't know where to hide, but I still

Eat good, drink good, feel good, it's all good
Can't hear my head when I'm sat beside ya
Fucked lungs and a liver, good looks in the mirror
Do I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive?

Feel more like limbo, hands out my window
Chasin' that sunset, that's more my tempo
That's more my tempo

ooh, but this is all that I am
I only show you the best of me, the best of me
Ooh, tryin', but I'm just a man
Hopin' it won't get the best of me, the best of me

I've just been goin' through motions, back and forth like a ocean
I am a fraud, I am the shit, hoping that nobody notice
Bang chest in the morning, head down in the night
Drink less if I wanted, strike up with a light
And square up, I'm the mightiest
Myself in the fight, hurt twice, but I tried it
No advice for this shit, might die for this shit
Do I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive?
Feel more like limbo, hands out my window
Chasin' that sunset, that's more my tempo
Yeah, that's more my tempo
Ooh, but this is all that I am
I only show you the best of me
The best of me
Looked in my demons and saw myself
Put all my meaning in someone else
Outta sight, outta mind, don't know where to find it
Don't know where to hide, but I still
Eat good, drink good, feel good, it's all good
Can't hear my head when I'm sat beside ya
Fucked lungs and a liver, good looks in the mirror
Do I feel alive, feel alive, feel alive?
Feel more like limbo, hands out my window
