| Uh, it's lonely at the top, lot of people are watching and want me to flop |
| I'm telling the kids, if I can do it then anyone can 'cause I came from none |
| One stop and search away from the block |
| In this life I don't feel fear, only man that can make me afraid is God |
|
| Uh, negative press on the shaderoom, anything good, it don't make the blogs |
| They didn't sit at the table when it was chicken shop |
| Now it's steak and lobster edamame and Pan-Asian cod |
| My first bedroom smaller than a jail cell, now the crib's on a ten-acre plot |
| First time I committed a crime was petty, I couldn't afford what the trainers |
| cost |
| First time I sold crack I was just sixteen, witnessing that at that age was |
| wrong |
| Detached myself from every emotion, hoping I'll get my paper long |
| One brick phone, one iPhone, no sim |
| Listening to the same old song |
| I'm jumping the barriers, if the inspector get on the train, I'm gone |
|
| Now the whip that I'm in's an impatient one |
| Put my foot on the gas when the light goes amber |
| Try touch me and guns will shoot |
| We don't do kung fu and fight like panda |
| My guy's a convicted criminal |
| So he gotta hide from cameras |
| All of my bitches pretty as hell, I can start up a beauty pageant |
| How'd I end up all the way in Clapham, I started my day in NW2 |
| Delivering food direct to your door, you can leave a review like Deliveroo |
| Sticks outside for a special occasion, nank on hip that's everyday shit |
| Gotta thank God that I never did |
|
| Dark and light, did sell it in twos |
| Before I got the invite to Mike Rubin's all white party, 4th of July |
| I was sat in the trap with a pack all night, cocaine fragrance, weren't dressed |
| in white |
| Fifteen minutes away from the shot but I said that I'd get there in less than |
| five |
| It gives me the ick when girls come around and try too hard to impress the guys |
| I sat and I told the Sony exec, if you give me a ten for a tape, I'll sign |
| Everything's gonna come to an end, when I counted an M, I was on cloud nine |
| If it weren't rap, I would've been a pimp, I look at a bitch and I see pound |
| signs |
| Plus one thousand aura, even if I don't talk, they'll feel our vibe |
|
| Label execs don't care if we're murderers, long as your catalogue bringing in |
| revenue |
| They'll sign you and when you go broke and end up in jail, they're quick to |
| forget you |
| I can't worry 'bout album sales, I got serious shit that I'm trying to get |
| through |
| How can they talk down on my name for trying to get paid, I'm playing a chess |
| move |
| GTA, I'm using cheat codes |
| Cheat at school in exams, I'm fucked |
| I cheat on my wife, but how can you blame me, I cheated life |
| I weren't supposed to make it this far |
| I got no grades, I ain't even wise |
| Walk down Uxbridge Road, I reckon that one in three of these people high |
| Supply and demand, that's how I get by |
|
| She telling me how a trap boy's her type |
| I'm tryna not get too used to the life |
| I'm staying inside, avoiding the hype |
| So many gyal that are wanting to fuck, I'm turning them down, they're wondering |
| why |
| I'm nonchalant, not shy |
| My entourage top five, I'm probably one of the |
| I've gotta be one of the greats |
| I'll get number one album, easy, it's not like the bar's set high these days |
| I came in the scene at an all-time low, I dunno but I think I revived the game |
| I've been praying that times will change |
| Premeditating a graceful exit, in the meantime, I'll try maintain |
| Alright |
