about

Skittles releases the song “The Prodigy”, a hypnotizing track featuring exciting new producers TMNMS & Kong. “The Prodigy” shows us a darker, more eerie sound from the Manchester rapper. The song is accompanied by a music video that was also shot, filmed and edited by Skittles.

lyrics

Impossibly,
they’ve forgotten me,
the prodigy.
I won the lottery
and forgotten it.
The studio’s so cottagey.
what’s this got in it?
we’ve gotta stop shottin it they sent me to lobotomy like they don’t know what I got in me
no stopping me
making a mockery smashing philosophy like it’s crockery
properly
your words worth more in monopoly
probably
what’ve ya got for me
not for free
I’ll pay you properly probably
they say there ain’t no god in me
Because there ain’t no godly bodily’s waddlin but....
probably
there’s got to be
but not to me
it’s all for free
I see us all as me
nothings proper super extra Ordinary
awkwardly
They see that to record’s a treat
you talk on it
talk on it sleep on it till the walk on it
more chronic
Space it arrange it I’ll put my thoughts on it
More sonnets
say my name and put some force on it
more sonics
Why book a couple tours from it
when your born from its
lawns chronic
It’s picket fence isn’t picket signs
you can pick its time
you can pick its place
this is space
your tonic
this is matter
does it matter
pass the baton to the back and save your face still gotta bend over to tie Lace
start the chase
2 1/2 minutes go through with R Kid it’s
like doing half a Guinness when you start after you finish
this is space
manifest to actualise matter
where actual lives matter
Don’t actualise that I’ll put that up in its place coz this is space
