IYAMAH – KYWK (Kill You With Kindness)
LYRICS
KYWK
Track 6 on
[Intro]
Asking me to be straight
But really that means lie
‘Cause each time I try to be honest
You show the pain in your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
You’re in denial
Blinded by the fire
My Sagittarius ways won’t always just let me be nice
[Chorus]
Do you want me to kill you with kindness?
You want me to kill you with kindness
Console you, caress you, undress you and hold you
And tell you I love you again
You know that that’s something I can’t do
I can’t kill you with kindness
(Kill you with kindness)
[Verse]
You know exactly what I live for
And that’s always been the truth
I can’t sit in conversation
And give you hope that we ain’t through, what’s the usе?
How do I put it bluntly?
You ain’t the one
I’m so done, I’m moving on
And that’s how I feel
So lеt me be real, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
You’re in denial
Blinded by my light
But my Sagittarius ways won’t always just let me be nice
[Chorus]
Still you want me to kill you with kindness
You want me to kill you with kindness
Confuse you and use you, and act how I used to
And tell you I love you again
You know that that’s something I can’t do
I can’t kill you with kindness
Console you, caress you, undress you and hold you
And tell you I love you again
You know that that’s something I can’t do
I can’t kill you with kindness
(Kill you with kindness)
[Outro]
Asking me to be straight
But really that means lie
‘Cause each time I try to be honest
You show the pain in your eyes

Quick Facts
The story of Sophie Bond began in the southern coast of England where she grow up surrounded by art and culture and an affinity for old school hip-hop from the likes of The Roots and Mos Def as well as influences like Etta James, Erykah Badu and Alicia Keys.
“The truth is that people don’t want to admit that most artists do have some sort of mental health because that’s the reason they’ve turned to music. But they do struggle with their own battles and haven’t figured out a way to be able to talk about it yet.”
— Sophie Bond for Londoninstereo
“The way I write is to tone down one’s ego and boost the soul, lift our spirits and empower those who need it.”
— Sophie says in an interview with Hypebae
