Back in September, Chance The Rapper and James Blake shared a remix of Blake's "Life Round Here" and announced that they'd be working together in the future. Now Chance has revealed an earlier version of that remix, which according to the SoundCloud description, was scrapped because "James never liked this vers." Listen above, and check out the lyrics below.

Little has changed from the official remix, save for some new lyrics by Chance, more muted production and an abbreviated runtime. We look forward to hearing new collaborations from the pair, but for now, this is a nice appetizer.

Head over to Chance The Rapper and James Blake's respective Zumic artist pages for more of their music, videos and news.

Chance The Rapper ft James Blake "Save Yourself First" lyrics:

Love is the life 'round here
We're never done

Life ain't been here in a minute
Here ain't been 'round my whole life
Mike ain't spin 'round in a minute
Sam just dropped for the last time
But wear that fake smile like a cape
Save yourself first

Light ain't been 'round here in a minute
Darkness done swallowed it up
Chaos been 'round for a minute
Marketed, bottled it up
But wear that fake smile like a cape
Save yourself first

Life ain't been here in a minute
But here ain't been 'round my whole life
My flesh look through the peephole
Seen there's people inside the key hole
And kept the door locked
Life can't be here indefinite
Not another minute 'round here
Why can't a minute be spent in a town
That's nowhere around here
But wear that fake smile like a cape
But wear that fake smile like a cape
Save yourself first

We're never done
