Lyrics
(ЙЕП, Laurence Warner
Death music, let’s go)
I was nearly 6 foot under
Before I made my teens
So I'm living my life purposefully
Daniil?
6 футів
Вітер доторкається до скроні
6 футів 6 футів
YEP, six foot under
Are you feeling me?
Or does moving imagery need to be seen
Up on a 66 foot screen
6 футів
Вітер доторкається до скроні
6 футів 6 футів
As I stand 6’3”
I may as well be the man I was meant to be and lead
Before they fill me with lead, I'm gonna make bread
Leave it to my fam when I'm dead - I will
Don't come from wealth, so I can't chill
Taxman knocking, I gotta make bills
Two things in life are guaranteed
Death and taxes right Daniil?
Це було давно, відчуття неначе у кіно
Панельні коробки стоять у ряд - це сіре доміно
Мама з татом, черга, дефіцит, нічого не придбати
Трошечки не встиг тоді точно підеш голодним спати
Underdressed and state-educated like Kryshev I waited
In line, I waited, but now it's my time to make it
A Pandit & Warner Picture
Cold War I'll depict ya in a quarter of an hour
Collab's our only power
I played with Shrey, Rachanee, left Egos at the door
The next day that insane little Ruski declared war
Gon' for a Mo, back in L.A. to open Closure Cafe
On the anniversary of that invasion of Ukraine
In case we're six foot under
Before hitting our thirties
6 футів
Не втрачаю жодної нагоди
Six foot under
Like the innocents in Kyiv
6 футів 6 футів
'Cos of that five foot dunderhead of the regime
6 футів
Не втрачаю жодної нагоди
6 футів
Вітер доторкається до скроні
6 футів
We'll all be six foot under
Let's delay it at least
Yeah I'll be playing the beast
Up on your theatre screen
While you're eating up M&Ms
"May I have your attention please?"
I'd rather avoid the 'ha ha ha' drama classes
Talking Greek out their arses about white privilege
They're classist, us smalltown boys had it hard
But who knows who's life's the hardest
We all can feel the same pain, just ask them out in Ukraine
It's a shame we need martyrs to care about looking after
Those who are outside our borders
They ain't just 'Boats' in the water, YEP
«У Союзі було краще!»
Лиш якщо ти мертвий
Українці хочуть собі пам'ять про усе це стерти
Заборона слова, заборона мови
заборона думати інакше, ніхто не готовий
2023 весь світ захлинувся від війни
Отруйним подихом росія зруйнувала всі мости
Ми не підемо нікуди ми будем на своїй землі
Якщо не виборем свободу, так і ляжемо в ній
You could be six foot under
Listen to Ukraine’s
6 футів
Не втрачаю жодної нагоди
Six foot under
From that poison in your veins
6 футів 6 футів
Моя труна на
6 футів
Кожен день борюся за свободу
6 футів
Не втрачаю жодної нагоди
6 foot under
Unless this war gets over
We're gonna keep turning back
Until we find some Closure
Can we please
(It’s a rap)

(YEP, Laurence Warner
Death music, let’s go)
I was nearly
6 foot under
Before I made my teens
So I'm living my life purposefully, Daniil:
6 foot... yes
Feel the wind's caress
6 foot, 6 foot
YEP
6 foot under
Are you feeling me? Or does moving imagery need to be seen
Up on a 66 foot screen
6 foot... yes
Feel the wind's caress
6 foot, 6 foot
As I stand 6’3”
I may as well be the man I was meant to be and lead
Before they fill me with lead, I'm gonna make bread
Leave it to my fam when I'm dead - I will
Don't come from wealth, so I can't chill
Taxman knocking, I gotta make bills
Two things in life are guaranteed: death & taxes right Daniil?
On and on it goes: a movie that won’t end
Lined like gray dominoes, the panel boxes extend
Mom and dad stand in lines, even with nothing to buy
'Cos at home you'll sleep hungry, so you still had to try
Underdressed and state-educated like Kryshev I waited
In line, I waited, but now it's my time to make it
A Pandit & Warner Picture
Cold War I'll depict ya in a quarter of an hour
Collab's our only power
I played with Shrey, Rachanee, left Egos at the door
The next day that insane little Ruski declared war
Gon' for a Mo, back in L.A. to open Closure Cafe
On the anniversary of that invasion of Ukraine
In case we're
6 foot under
Before hitting our 30s
6 Foot,
To every chance say yes
6 foot under
Like the innocents in Kyiv
6 foot, 6 foot
'Cos of that five foot dunderhead of the regime
6 Foot,
To every chance say yes
6 Foot,
Feel the wind's caress
We'll all be
6 foot under
Let's delay it at least
I'll be playing the beast up on your theatre screen
While you're eating up M&Ms
"May I have your attention please?"
I'd rather avoid the 'ha ha ha' drama classes
Talking Greek out their arses about white privilege
They're classist, us smalltown boys had it hard
But who knows who's life's the hardest?
We all can feel the same pain, just ask them out in Ukraine
It's a shame we need martyrs to care about looking after
Those who are outside our borders
They ain't just 'Boats' in the water, YEP
"Soviet Union was better" - say some, they’re dead inside
Our language, its every word and thought was denied
No one was ready, waiting till those memories died
2023 Russia burning bridges 'cross the globe
Poisoning every place they got in their chokehold
But we won't budge an inch, we'll save our land from plunder
And if we can't stay free alive, we'll take it six foot under!
You could be
6 foot under
Listen to Ukraine's
6 foot...
To every chance say yes
6 foot under
From that poison in your veins
6 foot, 6 foot
My coffin's 6 foot long
Every day I fight for freedom
6 foot... take every chance
6 foot under
Unless this war gets over
We're gonna keep turning back
Until we find some Closure
Can we please?
(It’s a rap)
