The Beat That My Heart Skipped – Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip – letras

Every now and then I cower and I need to find empowermentEmpowerment is paramount to how I can begin to mountA plan that I can implementto make a dent on ignoranceInstead of drunk belligerenceand the dissidence of miscreantsEspecially in this instancewith the never ending persistenceto use the words in each sentenceas if they were blunt instrumentsto beat a hole in the defenceof this beauty and her innocencewhich serves to just build resistancein spite of all my good intents.The beat that my heart skippedThis is the beat that my heart skipped when we first metNow that I’ve heard it, it leaves me with a kind of regretNo disrespectBut we left a lot of people upsetAnd what we had wasn’t really what we’d come to expectWell good god damn and other such phrasesI haven’t heard a beat like this in agesTo miss such a beat would have been outrageousBut when you heart skips a beat its ruthless and aimlessShe caught my attention in her fishnetsThen she reeled me in expecting nothing more than kissed necks and quick sexBut that weren’t the case with this platinum princessShe’s attracted my interestSo I wanted to impress’.Upon her all the positive thingsThat come form having more than just a one night flingBut that’s something that’s easier in theory than in practiceSince pick up lines are tacticsTo get prey to the mattressAnd this actressIs practicedIn shunning such theatricsWhen put upon daily by tactless geriatricsSo my genuine advances are met with po-faced scepticismThrowing complements but she just straight elects to miss themHer lips were put on this earth for dispersing wisdomGod forbid I suggest she lets me kiss themBut I really want to know what she thinks of meBecause I’m loving every idiosyncrasyBut I ain’t one to jump through hoops to make a 1st impressionBeen there, done that, learnt the worst of lessonsWe want to be loved for who we appear to be instead of who we areSo I real selves take a backseat behind the pomp and the façadeAnd that’s as true of the rude boys, downing pints and acting hardAs of the kids shunning convention with clinical disregard
