Produced by Manchesters Hip Hop Collective, The Mouse Outfit, Limbo is a jazz inspired single about finding beauty in the unusual grey area that people in the diaspora often find themselves in. The song is an ode to the nomad, the traveller and the vagabond and likens having multiple places to call home to experiencing different romantic relationships. Limbo is the first single release from Meduulla's upcoming EP 'Oblongata' which will be out in its entirety on the 17th August.
lyrics
Where do my limbs go in limbo i’m
Living two lives tryna synchronise
Don’t get me wrong a simple guy
Tryna find peace in simple life
How do i know where my limbs reside
Living two lives tryna synchronise
Don’t get me wrong a simple guy
Tryna find peace in simple life
Hear he hear he the court is in order,
I got something to say
tell your son tell your daughter
Im not gona change myself im not a damn contorter
you get with the program or you stay behind the border,
Thats an order from me
Cordially,
I speak the queens english coz im royal to thee
And its better when i cuss you in the language you speak
So you understand and overstand the message i mean
I mean monogamy has never been the one for me
I’ve always been in love with two lands from across the sea,
I got him my home and you my harbour
Forcing me to pick like its would you rather
See you were my first love, idyalistic,
Cant seen a future but for now we’re in sync
Loving you, kinda felt naturalistic
But you knew we couldnt hack the distance
So i moved upstream to a different place
Learned the ways of the land got a different bae
Really soon, bare lies began to marinate
luckily I never bought the bait
Where do my limbs go in limbo i’m
Living two lives tryna synchronise
Don’t get me wrong a simple guy
Tryna find peace in simple life
How do i know where my limbs reside
Living two lives tryna synchronise
Don’t get me wrong a simple guy
Tryna find peace in simple life
He said he’ll meet me by the Zambezi
Cats got my mother tongue, speaking isn’t easy
I’m from the land where we grow hella green leaf
Snakes in the grass but they’re literally beneath me
You see me, I’m a nomad in a teepee
Who found home in a program on the tv
Gone with the wind John cena you won’t see me
You need me I’ll be where the spirit leads me
facts
Gotta keep my heart and my home backpacked
Always feel alone in a room thats packed
Its just how it goes when your soul got a past
Like that and i only spit facts so your girl never backtracks,
Soon ill be like damn i should have listened in maths class
Counting up my money and its coming fast fast
This outcast got the last laugh
