One of DUKE‘s biggest strengths is his willingness to cross genres and make music that reflects him, regardless of labels. This new track called “She Kills Me” is the perfect example, where he actually sings most of it. It almost sounds like he was in a boy band in a prior life. This has cross appeal written all over it, but I supposed that’s kind of what Schoolboy does best. Hip-hop purists will scoff at this but I think anyone with an open mind and an appreciation for catchy tunes will find this to be enjoyable. My only qualm is that I wished the guy would quit jacking beats so we don’t have to hear all those tags in the middle.
LYRICS:
Verse 1
O can you see
The pain I feel deep down inside of me
And can I be
The one to sweep you off your restless feetHook
And will you look at me today
Or pass me by and walk away
Im running fast but its too late
She kills me all over againChorus
She kills me, all over again (x3)
Over and over againVerse 2
If you knew
The things that I coulda done for you
O foolish you
You still find a way to run back to himHook
And will you look at me today
Or pass me by and walk away
Im running fast but its too late
She kills me all over againChorus
She kills me, all over again (x3)
Over and over againVerse 3
They call me a verb, cause I’m all about action
Do what I do, I be all about knowing you
And me and you only
Turn off my phone
No calls from the homies
You, negative
Me, positive
Opposites attract
You the things I lack
Rooted in me
Like you wanna be
In my family tree
And make a lot me (haha)
And I know I aint the man of your dreams
But im dreamin to be your man
And I know I aint perfect but I will give you my all
Love sick aint sick of love
Even if you don’t sneeze
Ima bless you loveChorus
She kills me, all over again (x3)
Over and over again
