Busy from Another Somethin' by JND/jas0nbeats

(Chorus)
Why won't you leave me be /
Can't you see I'm busy? /
Go bother someone else /
Can't you see I'm busy? /
I'm not giving you my time /
Can't you see I'm busy, now /

(1)
I don't wanna do nothin' but lay in this exact spot /
Let me relax, cotch, pay no attention to the damn clock /
Alarm ringing coz the hands stopped /
Only for a split second, hit snooze and I've lost /

Another 5 minutes never seems to make a difference /
Can't remember any dreams I've had of late they're missing /
Usually, I'm sleep deprived, stay up too late through the week at night /
Hardly fall into the deepest kind /

So when I say I'm busy laying here /
I know I should be getting up, though it's cold and now the rain's appeared /
Feeling sorry for myself, I'm outside again /
Inner-monologue fight's to win another five is when /

The alarm starts chiming in, throwing back the covers /
Feel the coldness rush, as I skulk toward the cupboards /
Reaching for a cup, waiting on the kettles ping /
Working 9-5, pouring some ambition in /

(2)
Another victim of the seasonal cold /
Nose streaming, modern man is yet to beat it's resolve /
No amount of medication seems to weaken it's hold /
Need a week off, I'm told by my body, now the fever's involved /

Can't afford to be defeated, although /
The time off would be a blessing, turn the heating up loads /
Because I'm freezing in clothes, plus my coat still shivering /
Gotta hunt notes, if I don't I'll owe triple when /

My bills come, January always does me in /
Tryna show discipline, could do with Bernard's Watch for a minute then /
I'd maybe settle into getting better /
Doesn't feel I ever will, the virus win's on every level /

I've coughed my lungs up a couple times /
Used at least half a tree to get the snot out-my muffled mind /
I want a decent sleep breathing through my nose instead /
The fever's got me dreaming vivid, sweating out the cold in bed /

(3)
Stands to reason when it's winter, I'm outside again /
And the breeze you wish for in summers nine times the strength /
Take your height, multiplied 5 times in length, vertical /
Hanging on for life as I apply cement /

The storm brewing in the distance is one I resent /
Funny how my time is spent in winter keeping dry your heads /
In Summer climbing under floors, in spaces tiny yet /
When it's pissing down I'm on a roof with slates or tiles to dress /

I feel the pressure on because I've not got long to finish /
The light is fading plus the clouds are looking twice the threat /
Closer still, I see the valley start to darken, as I've often witnessed /
Sheets of rain that move in from across the west /

So now I'm soaking through, my shoulders wet /
Focused as the final slate's positioned, hammering, I hold my breath /
And sigh, the heaven's opened, could have waited till I'd finished /
I guess that mother nature hasn't patience for the jobs I'm sent /
