Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip - Angles текст песни

Things in life aren't always quite what they seem,
There's more than one given angle to any one given scene
So bear that in mind next time you try to intervene
On any one given angle
To any one given scene

My name's Mark, I go to Uni and College,
Don't socialise that much,
I just revise and build knowledge
At times I find that I become a virtual recluse
And let my belt of interaction hang decisively loose
But I came here to learn, that's the life that I choose
And if people think I'm boring then they can bring their abuse
See, a lot of people think I'm boring and say that maybe
I'm a weirdo and maybe I'm gay but that's cool,
'Cause when I get a good job and good pay
I'll get a house for just my brother and me some day
That's the reason I'm here,
Just to build for my future
If it means better grades I'll even sleep with my tutor

Thing's in life aren't always quite what they seem,
There's more than one given angle to any one given scene
So bear that in mind next time you try to intervene
On any one given angle to any one given scene

My name's Paul,
I've been a guard for six months and the shop that I guard is better
Than most dumps and I like it here, my boss is a pro,
He's taught me tricks of the trade other guards wouldn't know
He's taught me in this game there's some rules you gotta bend
And not to forget these thieving pricks ain't your friends and
Appearance is key there's a message to send and above all it's
Your fellow guards to defend
Today my boss was stabbed by some low-life psycho,
He's in hospital now so every night that's where I go,
He's on the brink but he's showing no fear though 'cause if he dies there,
He'll be dying a hero

Things in life aren't always quite what they seem,
There's more than one given angle to any one given scene
So bear that in mind next time you try to intervene
On any one given angle to any one given scene

My name's Keith, I ain't so much a racist
But if one reached out their hand I'd decline their embrace
I work security in a shop, in charge of 5 other guards,
I got all their respect 'cause I run this shit hard
I nicked one kid today, didn't show enough respect and attention
I grabbed him by his neck as my form of redemption
Didn't do no harm, just made sure that it hurt,
It ain't going by the book but believe me it works
Then I sent him on his way, this little shit knows the score now
I saw a little bit of fear, he won't darken my door now
That's what I do, stop these kids from decline, do what their parents won't do
Put down some boundaries and lines

Things in life aren't always quite what they seem,
There's more than one given angle to any one given scene
So bear that in mind next time you try to intervene
On any one given angle to any one given scene

My name's Billy I've been beaten since I was three,
Mum died when I was born and Dad takes it out on me
He ain't a bad man, He just gets drunk and feels alone,
I tend to go for walks and hope he's asleep when I get home
Don't like to talk about it though As I said, it ain't his fault,
It only happens when he's drunk as a last resort
Wanted to get him a gift, to show my support,
But had no money and I stole and I guess I got caught
At times like that, I tend to switch of my mind,
Stare blankly into space and let what happens unwind
I seemed to anger this guard, he put his hands around my neck,
He said it's time for me to learn some manners and respect
It hurt But I've had worse before,
It made me realise life is just a series of wars
I went straight home that day and locked the bathroom door
Took a blade to both wrists, they won't hurt me no more

Things in life aren't always quite what they seem,
There's more than one given angle to any one given scene
So bear that in mind next time you try to intervene
On any one given angle to any one given scene

My name's Mark and today I was told my brother is dead
I returned home from university, tears on his bed
On his pillow I found his suicide note and read
What had happened that day and what had fucked up his head!
The anger I felt there are no words to express,
I filled with so much rage there is no way to digest
I grabbed a knife, I went to town, it was time to regress
Back to an eye for an eye, last breath for last breath
I went straight up to the counter,
I said I'd like to speak to the guard
Who nicked my brother on Tuesday of this week
As the girl knocked on the door and disappeared out of sight,
I put my hand in my pocket, gripped the knife tight
This was it, as she pointed me out to the guard,
My hand began to shake I held the knife so hard
As he approached me, there was nothing to say
I stabbed that Fucker eight times, before they could take me away

Things in life aren't always quite what they seem,
There's more than one given angle to any one given scene
So bear that in mind next time you try to intervene
On any one given angle to any one given scene
