18 Lyrics by Mamba

2018

[Intro: MAMBA]
Ayo DOWG!
Hit me with a different
You know what? Rhythm

[Verse 1: MAMBA]
18
Kinda like the number of times I tried
To pretend
Looking straight into your eyes
When I knew deep inside I was anything
Rather than fine
Too immature to tell the truth
And I even had the guts to ascribe
This fault to you
A facade wall fragile from the very moment it was built
When i realised it was all fake It was already too late
And then I got
Shattered by a power against which little I could do
A storm that shook me like an earthquake
Of unratable magnitude
Got me trapped under the ruins
Of my wall
Even if I were lyrical like Eminem
I will never be able to describe the way shit ached
Even if spiritual as 'Pac all I can say is that I had understood
"Love is pain" quoting Ja Rule
It's a game in which you never can really tell
How much you got to loose, how much you got to gain
Maybe that's the trill and the real reason why it's worth playing
'Know what i'm saying?


[Hook: Elisa Costantini]

Let's get lost in this trance
Get it on with this dance
I want it slow, now I want it fast
Love me like you do
No matter how you would

[Verse 2: MAMBA]

God knows how hard I tried to look into your eyes
And hit my knuckles on the awful fact I recognised
You gave my phony homie the kind of look you used to give me when I walked by
On my mama, jealousy is misery
Made a nightmare outta any fucking reverie
A sorta demon that seized me
I'm still here making the most to buck free
Begot unnecessary and bitter drama
I trusted only when I had already caused a dose of deleterious trauma
Supposing the situation was reversed
It would have been a different scenario of course
It's amazing the way I found my self soul searching while writing down some words
Even single verse
Led me to the truth
Music is my source of realness
Increasing self awareness
This melody is the rhythm of this lyrical epiphany
Now, hold my hands and dance with me
Baby bay bee

[Hook: Elisa Costantini]

Let's get lost in this trance
Get it on with this dance
I want it slow, now I want it fast
Love me like you do
No matter how you would

[Outro: MAMBA]

Remember when
We were sitting on the bench
And I told you that I love you
Tears were flowing down my eyes
And that was because I wasn't telling lies
