The Breakup (Shikwa) - Riz Ahmed



The Breakup (Shikwa) --- Britain’s broken up with me We had our ups But now it’s broken down Lemme break down the whole fuckery Fuck buddies turned toxic Intertwined now we got kids Built her up she left me broke Cant believe I let her fuck with me I was a mogul had the bling and the girls Grit and the pearls My stash was a quarter of the cash in the world Then this stray pale chick came to trade I laid with her, made me pay she straight slithered And then stayed I couldn’t kick her out She saw I was at war with myself And I’m a fool Couldn’t decide who I was So easy to divide and rule Had me locked down Beat me red and blue til I knew Right was white and not brown When they make you hate yourself You hand over your crown She moved in I was a guest Unwanted in my own house Stole my shit, broke my dick, starved me scarred me, She got paid off my back still her piggy bank charged me Then she had beef with some German next man Went to war for her twice, lost my left hand Only then I emptied all her shit out the bed stand Threw her out, but she carved me in half, a part of me’s still dead man She was gone though Thought I was finally free Try get back on my feet My phone flash and I see she keeps calling Answer the phone she keeps bawling Says now’s she’s broke and the way she’s living is appalling She needs building up, restoring Told me her soldiers have all fallen Asked rush like the wind bringing the warmth in a sob story and I bought it The truth is I looked up to her and needed soothing And thought if she accepted me my worth would be proven So I moved in - yea Had a few kids - yea A future of mixed cultures but I was so fucking stupid Didn’t stop to think how badly it would just confuse them Daddy, why does mum hate me, she looks and says “who’s this?” Came home one day she changed the locks My brown and white sepia sapna gone to pot Says she blames me for how lately she feels lost How she ain’t what she was and our kids don’t show no love So now she’s taking back control And she wants me to fuck off Told the feds I’m dangerous insane and trying kill her off Had no time to explain to them the snipers took their shots I’m heartbroken and I’m homeless, trying to work out who I was Before I was told I’m only good for sweat and blood and sweat and cock Britannia trying to thrown me out Brittney baby please stop I thought we had a special thing I know that we can make it up Brittney if you break up with me then I might just break up This will either be the end of the or be the wake up Brittania breaking up with me, this the breakup
