They refuse to stick with you cause you didn't stick with your own Five years strong two since we put the rings on How you feel fasting for weeks trying to get into your dress Your father didn't give you away even though your mother begged Grandmum forbidden to come who could've pictured this Multifamily feuds between the loving and the prejudice Took your brother on days out and tried to help him get a job Extend my hand to show love only for them to cut the arm off Is this true Dated for three years all then we were cool Then I propose they act like they never knew When men date black nobody bats an eye But when the women do men forbid it now want to speak there mind What you expect I change colour overnight Black man on job hence I wear my crown head high See the problem with your cultural traditions Past behaviour patterns change develop overtime They don't invite us to family celebrations Your aunty happy posting pics about the occasion Like nothing happen voice note after how's the days been Check to see we comfy and cool with the isolation How you gonna pretend like we don't know How you gonna neglect blood of your own How you pretend like colour doesn't play a part To be Muslim doesn't mean to be stubborn that's not Islam Disagree and argue you want better and it's all true Especially when I'm the cause why you be upset Relations ain't the same and family thinks that your a shame You chose a black man over them they saying fuck this Really should love you more that I confess Should never ever make you feel Loveless If it's us against the world cool fuck them Earth's loss my gain never Loveless Hey Disagree and argue you want better and it's all true Especially when I'm the cause why you be upset Relations ain't the same and family thinks that your a shame You chose a black man over them they saying fuck this Really should love you more that I confess Should never ever make you feel Loveless If it's us against the world cool fuck them Their loss my gain never Loveless Hey You never dated before me will do anything for me So had to switch it up from car keys to door keys From short weekend breaks to vacays all week To joint accounts duel investing in our dreams Who knew Fam can be severe blood ties could be severed Words from figureheads try fathom between my ears Chatting reh teh teh teh If you aint on side its getting aired Best keep that same energy when our love child appears I gave your old man my word and I made it Asked for his blessing he won't give it had to take it He's got some prehistoric views on race relations Would you rather die loved by your children or be hated I can apologise for my mistakes But I'll never apologise for my race I can apologise for some of my actions But I'll never apologise for giving you my name To the in-laws to whom I'm forsaken I'll make it for the sons who's father never raised him Make it for the woman who don't get love that she deserves Give you anything and everything you know it's MorDan Words Families turned their back now there ain't no turning back Emotional toll hit your confidence don't understand Can't love you like I used to ain't loving like we used to Cause you don't feel the love from the love that you're used to Disagree and argue you want better and it's all true Especially when I'm the cause why you be upset Relations ain't the same and family thinks that your a shame You chose a black man over them they saying fuck this Really should love you more that I confess Should never ever make you feel Loveless If it's us against the world cool fuck them Earth's loss my gain never Loveless Hey Disagree and argue you want better and it's all true Especially when I'm the cause why you be upset Relations ain't the same and family thinks that your a shame You chose a black man over them they saying fuck this Really should love you more that I confess Should never ever make you feel Loveless If it's us against the world cool fuck them Their loss my gain never Loveless Hey

Something I can pour my heart into with 100 devotion Slow grind better than no motion 20 20 I'm focused Young blackman with his back against the wall but his will still unbroken Mordan Words that boy woken 20 20 I'm focused They say good is the enemy of the greatness I'm top tier yet not even at my apex Not seeing others success as my failures We going from being downplayed to be play list Don't procrastinate between love and hatred Indian like how the US did with the natives Fight the powers that be like mother of the matrix Mr Olympia flex for those that want me terminated I got responsibility's career job and a ring Combination I trade it all for my aborted seed Some around me hear the calling but they still don't ever heed Indenial scared fear of the uncertainty Worse than being blind having sight and still don't see Glam of shottaz to mass incarcerated black kings Aint breaking down doors then what good is it moving keys Admiration of athletes got me sporting new dreams Something I can pour my heart into with 100 devotion Hey Slow grind better than no motion Hey 20 20 I'm focused Hey Young blackman with his back against the wall but his will still unbroken Hey Mordan Words that boy woken Hey 20 20 I'm focused They say good is the enemy of the greatness Passion burning me cultivate like a day shift Trying to build a legacy by means of a payslip Audi intertwining between circles I relate with Past irrelevant if I don't build upon it ain't it Father praising women mother praying amen Got kin I'll never know blood ties in disarrayment Puzzled man brush my sorrows like an abstract painting African Holocaust Egyptian to Moors Battles to be fought no different from before Nino Brown cancel that bitch if she ain't down for the cause Scarface look to sky see the world is yours Self reliance one of the key 50th laws Black work three times harder learnt that from small Marathon continues got my best foot forward We go build upon and take this culture by storm Something I can pour my heart into with 100 devotion Hey Slow grind better than no motion Hey 20 20 I'm focused Hey Young blackman with his back against the wall but his will still unbroken Hey Mordan Words that boy woken Hey 20 20 I'm focused Tell them again Something I can pour my heart into with 100 devotion Hey Slow grind better than no motion Hey 20 20 I'm focused Hey Young blackman with his back against the wall but his will still unbroken Hey Mordan Words that boy woken Hey 20 20 I'm focused

about

Using Football as the perennial theme on this project "Pain Is Temporary Quitting Is Forever, MorDan Words unapologetically dribbles through conscious subject matters in an attractive and pacy form that even Raheem Sterling would admire. The beautiful game is only a footnote a 'keeper' in the background of this short but sweet 5 track EP, the real fanfare lies in the songs such as Love Less a synopsis of MorDan's interracial relationship still being disapproved by his partner's family.
"Football is something I live, eat and breathe. I love everything about it: the teamwork, dedication, sportsmanship and the passion. During the season I'm premeditating thoughts in preparation for what snacks to enjoy for Match Of The Day, Saturday Night. I make sure to have everything I need so I'm able to sit and comfortably enjoy the games. My favourite team is Machester United and being a football fan sometimes feels like a second job. I wanted to get that emotion of Tottenham's 2018/2019's Champions League run to the final across within music. That feeling of being so close to your goals (pun intended) yet still so far despite the neysayers, haters and opposition"
