Tricky/Terry Hall Lyrics

I confide to anything
I reveal my secrets to anyone and everyone

So I have to hide from everything.
To preserve my privacy and maintain my secret, I have to keep things from everyone including you

Everybody wants a piece of me.
Everyone wants to own me or has interest in what I possess

Rinse the origin and cease to be
Get rid of the beginning, forget about the origin and stop existing

Sit back and let it happen,
Relax and let whatever ensues come to pass

Let us take your time away
Allow others to take your time and do with it as they please

I don't understand you.
I can't comprehend what you're all about

I don't want your time of day.
I am not interested in what you have to offer me

If you're gonna walk, might as well walk your way,
If you plan to embark on a journey, you might as well take your own desired route

Always walk the whole ways,
Always complete the journey you have started

Forget the punk, I pack the funk.
Do not mind the weak or cowardly, I am the one to fear

I'm gonna take a piece of you.
I plan to take a part of you for myself

Making money for good health, but first I learn to see myself
I am first focused on understanding who I am before I can accumulate wealth and maintain good health

You've promised me poems
You have assured me that you will deliver literary works

You've promised me poems
You have assured me that you will deliver literary works

You've promised me poems
You have assured me that you will deliver literary works

I rue the day that I ever met you,
I regret the day that I ever met you

And deeply regret you getting close to me.
I am terribly sorry for being close to you

I cannot wait to deeply neglect you,
I am eagerly waiting to completely ignore and abandon you

Deeply forget you, Jesus believe me,
I am determined to forget you completely, without any doubt

You promised me poems.
You assured me of creating literary works

You might have been my reason for livin'
You could have given me a reason to live

I gave up ungivin', gave up everything.
I had to abandon a lot of things, even the things that I could give up

We were a right pair of believers
We used to be the perfect pair of followers

A couple of dreamers, so how come
A couple of people with big goals and aspirations, so why is it that

You hate me?
You now have strong feelings of disdain and contempt towards myself

You promised me poems
You assured me of creating literary works

You promised me poems
You assured me of creating literary works

You promised me poems
You assured me of creating literary works

You promised me poems
You assured me of creating literary works

Dreamed of ringing voices,
I had some fantasies about hearing lovely sounds

They contemplated choices.
They were assessing various options

Taste like a rare kiss,
It feels like a special and extraordinary event

To heighten my awareness.
To take my understanding and knowledge to greater heights

With all fairness, greatness, with gratitude.
With equal opportunities, show respect and honor in equal amounts

And simply rhymes with attitude
My poetry is simple but is full of confidence and boldness

Now do promotion and TV, and ya still can't see.
Despite popularizing myself on TV and other platforms, some people still cannot appreciate me

We down the hill cascade
As we descend down the hill, we get louder

And keep away the masquerade,
We hide our true identities and intentions from our audience

Dreamed of ringing voices,
I had some fantasies about hearing lovely sounds

And you promised me poems
You have assured me that you will deliver literary works

And you promised me poems
You have assured me that you will deliver literary works

And you promised me poems
You have assured me that you will deliver literary works

And you promised me poems
You have assured me that you will deliver literary works
