Do it again
And I’ll see you tomorrow
I want to get it
You’ve got something to borrow
Can’t make it feel right on my own
That’s when I turn you on again
I buy it but it don’t measure up
What is the missed ingredient
Chorus:
I, I see you fade
I, I see you fade away (2x)
Under the skin
It’s not so easy to swallow
Don’t reel me in
To find my dreams are so hollow
What is it you got I don’t get
I watch you fumbling again
Look dreamy behind your cigarette
Know it ain’t true now
Chorus
Oooh wee ooh wee oooh
We all find you easy so amuse us
Don’t get too heady you might abuse luck
You’re starstruck
Chorus

Santi White (born September 25, 1976), better known by her stage name Santigold (formerly Santogold), is an American singer, songwriter, and producer. Her debut album Santogold was released to positive reviews in 2008. Her second album Master of My Make-Believe was released in April 2012.

As a solo project with a revolving door of members, the heart and face of Santigold is vivacious frontwoman Santi White. White and John Hill, her former counterpart from ska-punk band Stiffed, use their common backgrounds as production-savvy musicians to make bombastic, bass-oriented songs that fuse punk, reggae, grime, and indie rock with electro.

Little known fact is Santigold’s involvement in the music scene before she was Santigold. Here Black Thought and Dice Raw tell us how they knew her back in the day.
