SAULT - 9 Lyrics

You can make it out, but you gotta lead
Wipe your tears, wipe your blood
From your sleeves
Your father lived in the dark so you won't see it
A broken man's spirit has no warranty

One day you'll make it
One day you'll be free
Before you lose yourself
Don't forget to dream

First time so high, your future is gold
Higher, I am going high up
To new (?), A good chance yeah
And you go, and you go, and you go, go as you go
And I know, and I know, and I know

I know that you're feeling rough even when you let us see your heart
The rough can scare people
And I am made of love

The rough can scare people
And I am made of love

Let your light shine (?)
You are perfect, know this dear
Trust the feeling in your soul
Lead the way to your miracle
Miracle, miracle, miracle

And I am made of love
And I am made of love

Growing up in East London, uh
It was never about like the whole "gang" stuff, the whole "gang culture"
It was more of like, just a collection of friends
It's gonna be that very cliché, innit
So everyone says, but
You were just with your mates, you just kinda hang around your friends, like
Whether it be oh you know, who lived on your road
Lived in the same flats as you
Could be your mates who went to the same youth club
Like just from the same general area
So, you know, that was, that was how we kinda got grouped
The names and the crew names
And stuff like that came from more, you know, sometime
Some of it was actually, you know you're proud
The area's got reputation, and you know
You'd say you're from there, or whatever
Or you'd say you were from this part
Because you were literally from that part
Even
Yo man, this was like, before, you know, mobile phones
This is old school, youth club days
Where, you know, you literally had to go and see see your mates
You'd go and travel to find them
So, you know clearly
You're gonna describe your mates from like the area like
"Oh where you're going, I'm gonna see such and such from
Or I'm going to see 'dem lot from over there"
Literally, so you know, you know
I don't know, um "Mark, Darren and Dean will be them lot From over there"
And then you know, sometimes things happen, you know
An argument or you know, sometimes it's just thrown on you
The names are given to you because you're just from the area
People say yeah "They're those guys"
The words you use to describe yourself
That's what people say that you are
