    Blanket

    by Imogen Jennifer Heap / Peter Akinrinlola

    Music is my blanket
    Music is my blanket

    Emotionless this city lies
    Cruel it is, it clouds my eyes
    The dark the dark
    Shades of my day
    I live inside this place
    Locked up inside my little cage
    Always tense and filled with rage
    Above the concrete fields below
    With you I wanna go, wanna go, wanna go

    Music is my blanket
    Music is my blanket

    I see only what I wanna see
    I’ll be only what I wanna be
    My blanket covers me, yes

    Yeah, check it
    Now as a yout man I was body poppin breakin on the lino
    Traded in my lino for a pad and a biro
    Used to stand in line just so as I could sign my giro
    But now my ends meet in the best way that I know
    (Hat, snare, kick) and the beats that go boom
    See the music I consume to escape the doom and gloom
    All the beats and melodies keep realities at bay
    But what happens when the records done and starts to fade away

    Alone within myself again
    I try to veil away my pain
    The dirty grey surrounding me ’round
    And now I hear no sounds

    I feel like Melle Mel from way back in the days
    As I wonder how I keep from going under
    I got trouble on my mind like my name is chuck d
    And like marvin gaye it makes me wanna holler
    When the music hits me I feel no pain
    That’s why I gotta put you on again and again
    I take the needle off the technics and put it in my vein
    All my troubles get crushed as the rush hits my brain
    And away goes trouble down the drain

    I see only what I wanna see
    I be only who I wanna be
    My blanket covers me

    Music is my blanket
    Music is my blanket

    I see only what I wanna see
    I be only who I wanna be
    My blanket covers me

    Music is my blanket
    Music is my blanket

    You are my living world
    You are my living world
    You are you are you are my
    My only living world…
