Accountability

[Introduction spoken] Take a seat mate, it's time for you to listen And I ain't rushing anything until I'm done It's been way too long since you've had some of this [Chorus singing] Accountability (Ohh) Without me you've been flying along And you never thought to see (Ohh) The consequences (consequences) Consequences (consequences) [Verse rap] I have a worrying memory from the time I was a child, sitting on the bottom step and asking mum for help. In all the stories that I read a family meant trust, 'cos they must, it's enough, blood and water cause Without it where'd you stand? Concrete foundations turned to sand, and I feel it to this day in the fabric of my life. It is my wound And I thought I'd stemmed the bleeding It is my wound And so I thought I'd introduce you to [Chorus singing] Accountability (Ohh) Without me you've been flying along And you never thought to see (Ohh) The consequences (consequences) Consequences (consequences) [Verse rap] I believe it, I have seen it, an absence of knowing what it means to really mean it. Why speak the truth when it means nothing to you? The better play is greed, gratification, it feels so sating. And I've danced through forests unaware of your traps, searching for gaps and understanding that's lapsed. It is my wound And I thought I'd stemmed the bleeding It is my wound And so I thought I'd introduce you to I thought I'd introduce you to... [Chorus singing] Accountability (Ohh) Without me you've been flying along And you never thought to see (Ohh) The consequences (consequences) Consequences (consequences) [Epic guitar solo] [Chorus singing] Accountability (Ohh) Without me you've been flying along And you never thought to see (Ohh) The consequences (consequences) Consequences (consequences) [Verse rap] So I take stock. No point in climbing down from this rock I thought, it's not, the truth. Because despite your best efforts, mate, I didn't follow your way. When you made me feel shit inside I directed that for change. It's important to me to be better than you, to know there's something real called honour. It is my wound And I thought I'd stemmed the bleeding It is my wound And so I thought I'd introduce you to I thought I'd introduce you to [Bridge rap] Repeat after me I'm an asshole and I can do better Repeat after me I'm an asshole and I can do better Repeat after me I'm an asshole and I can do better Repeat after me I can do better [Outro] And so I thought I'd introduce you to I thought I'd introduce you to I thought I'd introduce you to I thought I'd introduce you to
