lyrics

Me and them we ain’t alike and you can blatantly tell
It didn’t happen overnight, I had to wait in a cell
Doing laps like there’s no escaping this hell
In a jail up north where screws are racist as well
I had my own back, trojan living like a nomad
Any means necessary, winning was the slogan
Earners for the whole gang
See the way I’m channelling these frequencies, they’re getting with the programme
I know they wish I really fell from this stunt
How can I, I’ve been living on the edge from the jump
Signed my life to the streets, took a pledge on the spot
And got nothing in return, jus a cell with a bunk
I kept my head down, thinking bout my kids yeah I’m a let down
What I wouldn’t give to hit the roads now and head round
Take em to the park and watch em play on the swings
Instead I’m here tryna fight another case on the wing,
Reading the indictment with the brief on a legal
Like I’m taking it to trial you should put in for acquittal
Like how’s what they’re doing not illegal
Like how they’re tryna handle man is evil
But that’s how the ting goes, had to charge it to the game
Nothing hardly was the same, got a heart that’s full of pain
Then it all turned to blessings, all my targets never changed
That’s why I walk around my house at times and put on all my chains
Like I’m really self made in this ting,
Certain people are just born with the fate to be kings,
Got the haters big mad, yeah I’ll hate to be him
How did God go a BAFTA is the place to begin

That’s coz I’m God blessed,
There always will be hurdles with a conquest
When you set a target fam, you gotta trust the process
Got it in my sights, all I gotta do is focus
Glad I picked myself up times that I was feeling hopeless
Pull up to the table, all the waiting is done
And fix a plate for my kids, make a space they belong
They was tryna turn me off, I was made to be on
And the answers came quicker when I prayed with my mum
I don’t ever hide and talk like you heard what I’m saying
When you buck me up in person, yeah the energy’s staying
The di crase for their head bros we nobi the same
Man jus di chop life we ain’t starring again
People love to start trouble then they run from the pain
When you’re playing in the mud jus know it comes with stain
All these blogs with their narratives, it comes with the fame
First they love you, then they hate you, then they love you again
It feels good to be the man of the house
Up in Tape, me and bae had to stand on the couch
For the times that the screws used to bang on my flap
Before it’s all said and done I’ll put my clan on the map
It’s Glory Days, the progression is real
Turned my back on my old life like f how you feel
Got a ona all in jewels when I step out to chill
And my kids won’t go without when I set out this will.
