Vultures (MJ Cole Remix)

They're circling 'round but I need more time

My freedom is priceless and so is my peace of mind

I shouldn't have to pay for mine

If they were bees 'round my baby I would kill them

But they hover in packs and what a sorry excuse for men

There should be no excusing them

Cause they are dragging my faith out of me

It was not for the taking

Look the vultures are perching

And they are dragging my faith out of me

Everything I believed in

Look out in the waters they're lurking

Cause they are dragging my faith out of me

It was not for the taking

Look the vultures are perching

And they are dragging my faith out of me

Everything I believed in

Look out in the waters they're lurking

Quietly violent like a bad dream

They pursue day and night

They never rest like a hunting beast

A shadow in the corner of my eye and at the heels of my feet

Do they see any good in all this somehow?

I could charge them for murder cause they're killing my spirit now

It shouldn't be allowed

Cause they are dragging my faith out of me

It was not for the taking

Look the vultures are perching

And they are dragging my faith out of me

Everything I believed in

Look out in the waters they're lurking

Cause they are dragging my faith out of me

It was not for the taking

Look the vultures are perching

And they are dragging my faith out of me

Everything I believed in

Look out in the waters they're lurking
