Still to this day is one of my fav hip hop tracks. The beat/sample is incredible, amazing lyricism, bare deep and always hits me differently. Can really relate to the pain leaf was going through. 'you can't run away from yourself' ❤
Timeless, scarecrows perspective was the first HF album a bought. Still coming back to this song on those down days. Much love HF, come back to Aus if the world ever normalises please ❤️
I found Leaf Dog and this song at a time where nothing seemed to go out very well... And here are we now, lifes back on the road and the Hope's still there! Big love from Germany! Needed you when you were there!
Carmel: Don't run away now, don't be afraid Be strong, yeah, be strong now So at day when you wake up and you find out your dreams- blown away Leaf Dog: It's gone away, it's gone away, it's gone away Carmel: At day when you wake up and you find out your dreams- blown away Leaf Dog: It's gone away, it's gone away (Verse 1 : Leaf Dog) I miss my loved ones, sometimes feel like I'm still with em' Know you see me like Houdini mastering escapism Fake grinning, head spinning, the spider web ain't filling The weak fled, they ain't willing, it seems like we ain't winning But fuck it, that's how my life has always been, we can moan all night but I need to learn some discipline I ain't listening- is probably what I would say if I was you, cause I learnt the hard way from all the shit I went through But, sometimes that's how it has to be, messing up and acting free Falling far from the tree, the beat really attracted me, perfect match for me For when I met my biggest fear, heart bleeds, a tear for three people lost in that year Through the crack I peer as I glare at the world today, sniff without a care, 'til I bleed and I start to sway Cause whether sun or rain pelt, living broke or bask in wealth, it don't matter, you can't run away from yourself Carmel: At day when you wake up and you find out your dreams- blown away Leaf Dog: Know that feeling? You might You might not Carmel: At day when you wake up and you find out your dreams- blown away (Verse 2 : Leaf Dog) I'm standing on a fucking edge, mountain's crumbling down the ledge This will be my final pledge, in the morning I'll be dead, drugs flying round my head Lets get mashed, no need to cry, give me ten gurners, two grams and some 2C-I and we can get high Until the stars start to fall, no prevision, triple vision, when the buzz start to rule It seems cool, I just quit school, they couldn't stop it But I consume more than I make from my profit Carnage in my pocket, back rigid out of socket, friends saying that I've lost it Too paranoid to clock it, they can't stop it And I don't know who to trust, bounty's on my head My friends are acting like they ain't fussed I can feel something changing, this will be my inspiration through the dark nights I'm chasing that dream I ain't facing So I cut it off right there and untied the noose, cause my direction cannot be controlled by my excuse

"..I consume more than i make from my profit" Check Leaf getting all Errol Flynn on the mic... Flynn said... "My gross habits far exceed my net income."
why is Dont Flop releasing battles without sound. That is so fucking shit and they need to sort it out!!!! OK, i have turned my speakers on now. Sick battle :)
I know 4 years old. What's pretentious about talking about trying to escape life by abusing drugs, pushing yourself away from people and suicidal. It's not a rare experience for people to go through. Especially if you replace "street" drugs with alcohol.
