You've been working hard you got so far

Getting up each AM for the blue line

Interchange to South London

3 jobs on the weekly

Running on empty

I wish I had a pound

For every time I did that route

I've been seeing signs this could all change

Luck coming my way

The goals are racking up

But my defences are down

Find myself questioning

Everything I ever knew

But somethings in the air that ain't right

I could tell you

But you wouldn't believe a word

Turn a corner and there you are

Whether it's good or bad

Happy or sad

Why are you so paranoid

Acting like the whole world's watching

You gotta give it up

Before it gives you up

Cos I can't lose you now

Why are you so paranoid

Acting like the whole world's watching

You gotta give it up

Before it gives you up

Cos I can't lose you now

Second guessing all my moves

Replaying memories

(What does it prove)

When I can't trust myself

I can't trust nobody else

Find myself wondering

What and who can really help

(Really help)

I know I'm intense, wanna progress

Wanna impress, want the best for us

But I didn't buy a one way ticket

To some past experience

I can see it in their eyes

They know something classified

And I don't care to stick around

What I might find out

But somethings in the air that ain't right

I could tell you

But you wouldn't believe a word

Turn a corner and there you are

Whether it's good or bad

Happy or sad

Why are you so paranoid

(Paranoid)

Acting like the whole world's watching

(Whole world's watching)

You gotta give it up

Before it gives you up

Cos I can't lose you now

Why are you so paranoid

Acting like the whole world's watching

You gotta give it up

Before it gives you up

Cos I can't lose you now

Why are you so paranoid

Acting like the whole world's watching

You gotta give it up

Before it gives you up

Cos I can't lose you now
