Mattafix Lyrics

You cannot be certain,
You cannot be sure.
All those times that I took for granted left me wanting more.
Now that I've awoken,
I'm ready to adore
Though my heart is broken I'm wiser than before.

Won't somebody tell me where is love?
I know when I see her face,
She will soon replace the pain that I've uncovered.

Where is Love?
And why does it hurt so much?
And will I measure up if I get to hold her?
The angel on my shoulder.

You can be disheartened,
Made a fool again.
You can't see the future,
And who knows how this ends.
Now I hear you calling,
The dance has just begun.
Head and heals I'm falling are you gonna be the one?

Won't somebody tell me where is love?
I know when I see her face,
She will soon replace the pain that I've uncovered.
Where is Love?
And why does it hurt so much?
And will I measure up if I get to hold her?
The angel on my shoulder.

Tell dem already but we tell dem again.
Tell dem already but we tell dem again,
How she left me and she gaan her way.
She left me and she gaan her way.

Tell dem already but we tell dem again.
Tell dem already but we tell dem again,
How she left me and she gaan her way.
She left me and she gaan her way.

Won't somebody tell me where is love?
I know when I see her face,
She will soon replace the pain that I've uncovered.
Where is Love?
And why does it hurt so much?
And will I measure up if I get to hold her?
The angel on my shoulder.

She left me and she gaan her way.
She left me and she gaan her way.

The angel on my shoulder.

She left me and she gaan her way.
She left me and she gaan her way.

Their first full single, "Big City Life", released by EMI on 8th August 2005 was a considerable hit, managing a #15 peak on the official UK chart, a big feat for a UK R&B/hip-hop group, and topped the charts in Germany, Czech, Austria and other European countries. Their third single, "Passer By" was released on 24th October 2005, unfortunately missing the UK top 75. The single preceded their debut album "Signs Of A Struggle", which was released a week later on 31st October 2005.

The fourth single from their debut album, "Signs Of A Struggle" was "To & Fro", which features backing vocals from former Sugababe Siobhan Donaghy. The single was released as a download only single on 13th March 2006.

Big City Life debuted at #19 on the Australian Music Charts and reached #1 on the New Zealand Singles Chart.

Signs Of A Struggle was a Triple J feature album in April 2006.

In April 2010, Marlon Roudette made a video appearance where he spoke about recording and making the record in his home-based studio. However, via Facebook, it was announced that Roudette and Hirji had gone separate ways, due to their different new ideas for future projects, which has brought abundant attention to fans. He is yet to come up with his new artist name; whether to stay with the name Mattafix, or choose a new stage name; perhaps his own. "Mattafix presents...Marlon..." was a quote from a late 2010 YouTube video, as an updated possibility for his album title and/or stage name. Marlon Roudette has confirmed that the new album is "not a radical shift but definitely different. More instrumentation and more in depth musical compositions." Marlon Roudette has stated that the album is pretty much completed, but the album is still being "fine tuned". His first solo album Matter Fixed was released on 2 September 2011. His sophomore effort Electric Soul on 8 August 2014.
