You’ll find me ripping the written out of the pages
watch how I sit on the rhythm
Prisoner with a vision
For four years I never had a place to stay
But it’s safe to say that it kept me grounded
like a paper weight
At 16 years old … I moved out of my home …
I tried to say goodbye and I choked …
Went from sleeping at a subway station …
Mmmm come on and take it back, love
Come on and take it back for us
Don’t you fade into the back, love
No
I tattooed the lyrics onto my arm
whispering everything that happens …
This song’s from the heart cover the planet
I take it back now
Now absence can make your heart ache …
living life on the edge with a close handful of friends …
And every single second knowing
that we’ll never betray
the way we were raised
remembering our background …
My dreams keep me awake at night
written in rhymes, …
Will keep me going through the tough times, dream with me
We forget 90 per cent of it when we wake
But the other 10 per cent it never forget
Dreaming dreams, day to day goals …
You’d find me buskin’ on the street
When it was cold outdoors …
Dreams you own …
And have the utmost faith in it …

Ed Sheeran – Take It Back

Now I’m in town, break it down …
ciao, seems that life is great no
See me lose focus, as I sing to you loud
and I can’t, no, I won’t hush
I’ll say the words that make you blush
I’m gonna sing this now
See, I’m true, my songs are where my heart is …
See, I’m real, I do it all, it’s all me
I’m not fake, don’t ever call me lazy
I won’t stay put, give me the chance to be free …
I sing and write my own tune
And I write my own verso
Don’t need another word-smith to make my tune sell …
I sing fast, I know that all my shit’s cool
I will blast and I didn’t go to Brit School
I came fast with the way I act, right
I can’t last if I’m smoking on a crack pipe …
My mind will always be stronger than my songs are
Never believe the bullshit that fake guys feed to ya …
When I perform live, feels like I am meditating …
‘Cause with the lyrics I’ll be aiming it right …
now I’m on arabian nights
Because I’m young and all my brothers gonna give me advice
Long nighter, short height and I’m gone hyper
Never be anything but a singer-songwriter
The games over but now I’m on a new level …
People think that I’m bound to blow up
I’ve done around about a thousand shows
But I haven’t got a house plus I live on the couch
So you can be the lyrics when I’m singing them out …
So now I’m back to the sofa giving a dose of what the future holds …
Gonna be breaking into other people’s tunes when I chase it
And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift
Into another rappers shoes using new laces
Selling cds from my rucksack …
Nationwide til’ we’re just jack, soon as I get the bus back …
Truly broke, never growing up call me Ruffio …
They say I’m up and coming like I’m fucking in an elevator
‘Cause you need me, man, I don’t need you
You need me, man, I don’t need you
You need me, man, I don’t need you, at all …
