Biography

British rapper from Northampton, England, UK. Well known for his notoriously gritty and rough instrumentals and raw, politically charged lyrics, especially around Brexit and Theresa May’s tenure as Prime Minister of the UK. His stage name originates from his childhood nickname; Frampton had a speech impediment which caused him to speak slowly and with a drawl. Originally known as Slow Ty, he changed it to Slowthai when he released his first single in 2016. His album "[Link]" (2019) was shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize (2019).

LYRICS

Thinking with my dick
My head is split
It's so hard for both sides to commit
Hear the whispers from angels
Positive
How I'm swayed by the demons telling fibs
When the walls cave in
No-one's there
Keep nodding, yeah
My head's the rocking chair
We keep going 'round, we keep going 'round
I never made you proud, never made you proud

It's okay to cry, okay to cry
H-A-P-P-Y, H-A-P-P-Y
It's okay to cry, okay to cry
H-A-P-P-Y, H-A-P-P-Y, yeah

I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile

Love's a shield
My armour's hope
You made the good times feel like swinging from a rope
It's okay
If you're okay
A bad day if you do not get your way
I said you seen me at my lowest
Hi, love
It's where you keep me so I ain't that close to God
Said you keep me at my lowest
Hi, love
It's where you keep me so I ain't that close to God

It's okay to cry, okay to cry
H-A-P-P-Y, H-A-P-P-Y
Okay to cry, okay to cry
H-A-P-P-Y, H-A-P-P-Y, yeah

I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile

There's a storm in my chest, the honeymoon
It's your world, I'm just living in it
We stare through sunken eyes
You stare at the ground, I'm not surprised
Going back and forth, I deliver the sun to your feet
At your door
Can't keep my hands in the ride
I buckle up when enough's enough
The sacrifice we make to see the sun
For vitamin D, you suck the soul out of me
On the tip of my tongue
How toxic can I be?
I rub you up wrong, and still you want my company
Sometimes I wanna runaway
Sometimes I run away so I can feel free
How far can my feet take me before they bleed?
How far can my feet take me so I can feel free?
I wanna run away
How far can my feet take me before they bleed?
How far is too far?

I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile
I would give everything for a smile
