Lesley Meaning
| [[Verse 1: Dave] Look They say the universe, it works in a strange way And it must be true because We ain’t from the same background or same place But me and Lesley ended up on that same train I’m talkin’ every day I used to wake up around seven or eight To catch the 9:06 from Norbury Station Two different worlds in the same location and One day, we ended up speakin’ And I would talk about college, she would talk about meetings And how she’s plannin’ on leavin’ How she hates what she does, but she needs it I asked her what she was doin’, it’s the weekend And she said, she said [Chorus: Dave & Ruelle] I don’t know myself I don’t know myself no more [Verse 2: Dave] She used to be the life of the party for true And now she goin’ out hardly ever Her man got her in the yard forever And her friends wanna help, but it’s hard to tell her Hard to let her know that her man’s possessive and aggressive And she can’t even see it, but for them, it’s clear as day she’s in a situation Her friend Hannah had a man that was manipulative So she could see it from a mile off Turtleneck jumpers, makeup around the eye spots All the signs were there But Lesley made it seem a light affair Said it wasn’t right to share Her boyfriend, he was a mystery man I didn’t know much about him, but he’s been in the can Name’s Jason, he’s a bad boy with no reasonin’ To be honest, I don’t know what Les sees in him ‘Cause she’s a good girl with a sweet heart But they’ve both got demons and a deep past You know opposites attract, apparently I never heard her talk about her family ever, uh-uh He was all that she had Until they had an argument and he stopped callin’ her back And I don’t know if there was more to the story than that ‘Cause she plays things down, but according to that He went missin’ one day, in the mornin’, he ran She’s doin’ overtime, strugglin’ affordin’ the flat ‘Til she lost her job, it fucked all of her plans Couldn’t pay the rent, borrowin’ and callin’ for cash But Hannah, she was there for her, cared for her When I saw Les, she told me , [Chorus: Dave & Ruelle] “I don’t know myself I don’t know myself no more” [Verse 3: Dave] Les sayin’, “I got nothin’ to live for It’s been raw, but David, I ain’t never been this poor There’s no income, my boyfriend left me So how the fuck am I gonna survive when this kid’s born?” And I said, “It’s a blessin’ as mad as it is And Les, I never even knew that you were havin’ a kid” Bro, she’s four months pregnant, young and neglected Single, but I don’t think she wants to accept it So she’s still textin’ exes, tryna get this Back on track, but I don’t think that she gets it It’s emotional obsession, clinical depression Life is a lesson And you ain’t gotta sit and cry ‘Cause, Lesley, livin’ in this gift called life There’s no better gift than the gift of life So can you handle it? [Chorus: Dave & Ruelle] “I don’t know myself I don’t know myself no more” , [Verse 4: Dave] But that changed her perspective Late in December, her baby’s expected to drop She’s accepted, excited, electric, pumped Only got to wait a few months Her and Hannah had lunch, told her she’s pregnant And they’re the closest of bredrins So she didn’t stunt to tell her, “I think that it’s an error You ain’t a mum for a day, you’re a mum forever Whatever, and you and Jason break up whenever If I’m honest, that’s somethin’ you should have done together” She doesn’t know that her and Jason goin’ out again And Jason doesn’t know that Lesley’s carryin’ a child for them She had daydreams of settlin’ down with Jason Better ’cause now they’re together, it’s wild Feelin’ like she needs to call her friends and tell ’em ’cause while She’s lettin’ him down, but most of them are never around She calls Hannah the next day Still tryna figure out the best way To tell her that she’s gettin’ back together with an ex-flame So she left her a voicemail Like, “Yo, Hannah, it’s Les, can you call me back? I wanna talk about the baby, you, me, Jason, all of that I’ve been feelin’ like I need to get my aura back I used to be so fucking confident But these days, I swear that , [Chorus: Dave & Ruelle] I don’t know myself I don’t know myself no more” [Verse 5: Dave] It’s 3:30 Lesley was meant to get a scan, but today, I think she’s goin’ home early Tryna talk to Jason, tell him ’bout the kid Addressin’ any reservations, have that conversation Middle of the summer and it’s rainin’ Waiting at the train station, hella cancellations So she gets a taxi, sittin’ in a backseat Blue jean jacket and a maxi Actually tired and her legs are achin’ Touched the destination Way faster than the cab driver’s estimation She put the key in the door She couldn’t believe what she see on the floor Some size-five trainers, ragin’ Tears in her eyes, but it’s cool ’cause they must be the neighbor’s And Jason’s in the bedroom fully naked Lesley runnin’ up the stairs, but she’s makin’ noise And she can hear Jason’s voice Sayin’ “hide in the closet”, but he’s made his choice So she bursts in sayin’, “What kind of person Would cheat on his pregnant girlfriend?” Jason sayin’, “What the fuck? You’re pregnant? What the fuck? You weren’t even gonna tell me, I mean, what the fuck? What do you want from us? Nah, you ain’t in love, you just wanna love” Lesley tellin’ Jason, “I don’t wanna love I don’t want a you and I, I don’t want a us And also, I don’t wanna talk loads One more line before I dash like Morse code Open the wardrobe” And Jason’s on the edge “‘I just wanna see if she was prettier than me, slimmer than me Maybe your baby’s similar to me Maybe you wanted someone thicker than me, fitter than me To satisfy you quicker than me I got your baby in my stomach and you did this to me What did I ever do to you for you to finish in me? I didn’t believe my girls, but they were thinkin’ of me And give it to me, the wardrobe, give me the key’ I was pullin’ at the door, but Jason’s bigger than me Literally, I remember viscerally Jason pullin’ from behind me, now he’s grippin’ on me White flashes, eye gashes, when he’s hittin’ me, see I just wanted to disappear, I wasn’t livin’ for me Physically, I shut the fuckin’ door as quick as can be He’s outside askin’ why I made him do what he did Using a kick to open up the room that I’m in I’m feelin’ afraid, barricaded with a chair in the handle I’m hearin’ sirens, I just wanna run away, but I can’t” Jason’s gone by the time police are comin’, they saw That there ain’t no one else in the house and feds are runnin’ through the door shoutin’ “We have reports of an argument with a woman” There’s blood all over the floor and it’s splattered onto the wall Lesley’s on the bed and she’s tryna speak to the feds She’s deep in the stress and it’s meters above her head If anything, she couldn’t even say anything But she’s got this really sharp pain where her belly is So they call an ambulance, Lesley didn’t plan for this Police are in the room tryna find the missin’ piece of the puzzle Until they stumble on somethin’ that’s kind of random It’s a phone in a wardrobe It had five missed phone calls from Jason And also a couple other numbers, so they’re thinkin’ that it’s no help Until they play the voicemail Like, “Yo, Hannah, it’s Les, can you call me back? I wanna talk about the baby, you, me, Jason, all of that I’ve been feelin’ like I need to get my aura back I used to be so fucking confident But these days, I swear that [Chorus: Dave & Ruelle] I don’t know myself I don’t know myself no more” [Verse 6: Dave] She felt sick to her stomach, she started panickin’ Mind rattlin’, tryna understand what Hannah did Battlin’ the shame ’cause the situation embarrassin’ She’s tryna fathom it, betrayed by her own garrison Meanwhile, she’s on the bed tryna manage this Piercin’ pain in the stomach, she couldn’t handle it Now she’s waitin’ for an ambulance Look And I know she’s strong But when I heard about what happened, I was over-shocked Her nose was gone, her jawline shattered and rocked They said her baby was the reason she was holdin’ on She’s dozin’ off, doctors gettin’ no response Her heart rate slowin’ down and they don’t know what’s wrong Picked her up, got her out the home And onto the stretcher for good measure, but she’s fadin’ out, oh She took damage to the brain and now She’s in a coma as we speak, but I ain’t sure if she can make it out You see, this time that I’m takin’ out To tell you this story, it’s more than a song or track It’s a message to a woman with a toxic man I’m beggin’ you to get support if you’re lost or trapped I understand that I can never understand And I ain’t sayin’ that it’s easy but it must be right Some of your sisters, aunties, mums, or wives Are fucked inside and they will never touch on why I’m touched ’cause I’ve seen women that I loved or liked Cry a little red tear through a bloodshot eye This shit’s awful, no matter what culture, it ain’t normal Men try and twist it and make it seem like it’s your fault In that train full of people that you’re takin’ How many Lesleys are runnin’ from their Jasons? [Outro: Ruelle] Angel without wings Like the day without the night to bring her peace A song without a voice A spark without a flame A child without a name Oh, it’s just wrong Like an ocean without a shore A soldier without a war How can we do this anymore? A song without a voice A spark without a flame A child without a name Oh, it’s just wrong [Interlude] Well, we’ve made a massive amount of progress in this last year, haven’t we? Feels like a long journey And I must say it’s been a pleasure to watch you mature and grow in thought And in your career and life You’ve opened up immensely I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t miss these sessions But you know, you can never stop learning about yourself So you’re always welcome I’m just happy you’re at a place now where you feel You understand your emotions and are in control] |
