Start From Scratch Lyrics by S7VEN

Sankofa

2019

[Intro]
S7VEN

[Chorus: Gidds Jerubbaal]
Here’s a little saying when the path turns black
You only live once
You can’t come back
So anything you do, you put your heart in that
There’s no such thing as failure when you start from scratch
Here’s a little saying when the path turns black
You only live once
You can’t come back
So anything you do, you put your heart in that
There’s no such thing as failure when you start from scratch
Yeah, look

[Verse 1: Gidds Jerubbaal]
Introspection got Gidds reflecting on many lessons
A kid from Streatham with good intentions but I should mention
I’m stubborn-headed but nonetheless I ain’t missing blessings
A double tick and it’s blue that means I got the message
I’m conflicted but gotta stress it it so depressing
Cause being broke and frustrated ain’t the best combination
No excuse just an open statement
I’m flawed (floored) like home renovations
Not sure that’s deodorant fragrance
I’m over anxious
But there’s valleys and peaks
You’re overzealous one day
Then you’re sad the next week
That shit happened to me
You gotta balance with ease
Stay strong, and balance like a circus trapeze
The only option
Cause life is shorter than this roach I’m tossing
Rather die enormous than live dormant that’s just how we on it
Went broke and set up tracks Macaulay Culkin
I gotta keep it pushing like a door in forward motion

[Chorus: Gidds Jerubbaal]
Here’s a little saying when the path turns black
You only live once
You can’t come back
So anything you do, you put your heart in that
There’s no such thing as failure when you start from scratch
Here’s a little saying when the path turns black
You only live once
You can’t come back
So anything you do, you put your heart in that
There’s no such thing as failure when you start from scratch

[Verse 2: Gidds Jerubbaal]
I’m all on my own
Got no-one to phone
In between a hard place and a rock or a stone
Just lost my home
It's cold when I walk on the roads
I'm tryna figure out the options I hold and they’re very slim
I turned my house to a home, now its derelict
I pray wishing for hope, I’m never settling
My way resulted me broke, I had less of it
If I change blessings will flow, like its raining in
I play to win
Cause life’s a gamble
Take control, grab the handles
God won’t give me challenges I can’t handle
Not here to preach on the tabernacle
But it’s not black or white like Michael Jacko
It’s pain and a bag of hassle
No pain no gain
Embedded in my brain
I didn’t work this hard to remain the same
My mantra whenever life stress me?
Empty whats full
And fill what’s empty ‘cause

[Chorus: Gidds Jerubbaal]
Here’s a little saying when the path turns black
You only live once
You can’t come back
So anything you do, you put your heart in that
There’s no such thing as failure when you start from scratch
Here’s a little saying when the path turns black
You only live once
You can’t come back
So anything you do, you put your heart in that
There’s no such thing as failure when you start from scratch
