Lyrics:
I hold my ear to a shell
I hear something that no one can sell
You know I should live by the sea
‘Cause I feel invisible in every city
And I know this feeling too well (too well)
Of being alive at your own funeral
Going ‘don’t give up on me’
Going ‘don’t give up on me’
Please, I’ll be the best I can be
I’ll be the best I can be
Don’t give up on me
I’ll come out of my shell
‘Cause I want the cake and I wanna eat it as well
I will live in leaves that crunch under your feet
I wanna be heard if I can’t be seen
And I know this feeling too well (too well)
Of being alive at your own funeral
Going ‘don’t give up on me’
Going ‘don’t give up on me’
Please, I’ll be the best I can be
I’ll be the best I can be

Love how open slowthai allows his sound to be. This man shows no fear.

Slowthai and James Blake ordering takeaway at their own metaphorical funeral. Of course.

Metaphorical. Right. I love your delusion you have on life. 😁 Even Jesus had to Cross that path. And he spoke several times, saying that he knew his destiny, and was never happier.
How did this not make the album?! This version is so good!

James Blake is all I can think about these days. He really does his stuff amazingly. And don't get me started on Slowthai. Never disappoints
This whole album tho 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO FOR LIFE IS NOT SAME!! God this whole album is a masterpiece.
"Like being alive at your own funeral, going don't give up on me". I've never heard that expression before but I know that I've felt it a hundred times. It's perfect
This video makes me nostalgic about the Life Round Here video with Chance years back.
This album is a 10/10...perfect

Lyrics: [James Blake] I hold my ear to a shell I hear somethin' that no one can sell You know, I should've lived by the sea 'Cause I feel invisible in every city And I know this feeling too well (Too well) Of being alive at your own funeral Goin', "Don't give up on me" Goin', "Don't give up on me" Please, I'll be the best I can be I'll be the best I can be Don't give up on me [slowthai] I never been one for horror movies I fall asleep under your tongue, I hope you choose me The shadow silhouetting the sun, I'm glued to your feet I live in the shadows of, mmm, under the loose leaves I spread my wings, I got a nose bleed I been the dust on top of trophies, the rust that makes it homely The crust that no one wants, I was forgotten, I've gone moldy They pressed mute, can you please pass the controller? Been the rabbit in the lights and they already ran me over [James Blake] And I know this feeling too well (Too well) Of being alive at your own funeral (Funeral) Goin', "Don't give up on me" (Don't) Goin', "Don't give up on me" Please, I'll be the best I can be I'll be the best I can be Don't give up on me

I agree, in every song he does, it's always James Blake who has the most moving presence
One thing I love about James Blake is he has songs like this I’d come by it again months later and listen to it once again and my entire opinion on the song just changes

fr. this was me with Assume Form. i came back to it last year and became obsessed with the 2nd half of that album, the somberness' in the 2nd half was not something that stuck out to me the first time, but with a little life experience and some time away that changed lol.
Slowthai’s verse always gives me chills. I listened to this song in the car for the first time since I got over my first big heartbreak months ago. I started crying for the first time in months. Such a beautifully heart wrenching song
Wasn’t expecting this to sound this good, got chills 🥺
these two especially when tohether literally produce a special emotion in me
Finneas ain't got nothing on JB. This is Mozart vs Salieri. When the Eternals want to sit back and chill to a concert, they call up James Blake. What a gift to an ungrateful world. Thank you James. You really touch people.

The man takes me to a space somewhere between earth's home and my future home. I only get so close to the new home when I fly to that space. Its as though my spaceship hasnt got the fuel to get me there. Which is fine.... I need his tunes in my ( LIFE )so earth for now is where I'll stay. 😍
