[00:23.37]This year slammed the brakes
 We stood still whilst the world changed 
 So unclear in just one take 
When all we got is hope 
 We stood still watched the clubs close

 Industry took a beating
 No raves in this season
Lockdown it’s like groundhog day
Face-to-face we’re not speaking 
 Miss the vibes when I stand on stage 
Young hearts we’re depleted
[00:52.68]Gimme the mic I wanna feel it
Can’t see my mum on the weekend
She ain’ t getting no younger 
 All night we’re just sleeping
[00:58.32]1 hour for the fresh air 
Day by day it’s repeating
 Yeah I know it’s for the greater good
We want the cases decreasing 
 Tryna go slow like nature would
 But months pass it’s fatiguing
[01:07.32]Yeah this timeline passes slower than a snail 
It’s like we’re on the side, wait for our turn like Gareth Bale 
 Working on myself to welcome everything I’ve got
 Cos I lost a couple friends up in this period, it’s been a lot
 This ain’t the status quo for me, I’ll probably lose the plot
[01:20.37]It helps to focus on the good things, we’re just searching for our spot, yeah 
4 walls in this box 
 Panicking heads at the shop
[01:26.58]2020’s it’s a flop

 This year slammed the brakes 
 We stood still whilst the world changed 
 So unclear in just one take 
When all we got is hope 
 We stood still watched our clubs close

 We stood still watched our clubs close
[02:32.13]
 New phrases and cliches 
Mask on it’s the sequel 
Many night shifts in the hospital 
No PPE for the people
Government they’re so callous
 The policy it’s medieval 
Gatekeepers they won’t let you in 
Let the bottom starve it’s so evil 
Populism man it’s killing us 
 Migrants the new target
 It’s a classic case of deflection
[02:49.77]But the headlines yeah they start it 
It’s so frustrating 
My family work the hardest
 Education is paramount
[02:55.32]Otherwise the winters are harshest

 But what the future holds depends on every heart
 Do we want to see a time where empathy ain’t on the chart?
 I know these months have been so tough on all our dreams
 But resilience it’s prevalent throughout our history 
 And in the cold you see the human in our beings 
 Without the need to front we see togetherness for what it means 
3 zoots and I’m lean 
 Man I got love for the scene 
2020 yeah it’s peak 

[03:19.89]This year slammed the brakes 
 We stood still whilst the world changed 
 So unclear in just one take 
When all we got is hope 
 We stood still watched our clubs close
