(Ayo, [?], run that back) Your favourite artist told me I'm his favourite artist They said I should cross over, really break the market Sign a big record deal and really take advantage Like I ain't got blocks there and trees to harvest When I rap about that shit, it just seems nostalgic How you rap about that shit and you ain't been around it? I had a function with my shooter, told him, "Squeeze around quick" Fuck cash, there's about eight years on my outfit But Bemi got me this, and I can't even pronounce it You can't tell me 'bout cash, bro, I get it, I counts it I'm tryna link my old cats so I can drop 'em some ounces That's for when you let me sleep in your houses, thank you Never let them play with your reputation For years now, I gave you pain, gave you education Nowadays, we get money, so we're elevatin' I still get you air-lifted, call it elevation I got anxiety, it's the separation Separation from my stick 'cause I got hella paigons And these feds are on my dick, and the probation So don't post me in your pics or my location Bs up, I let it be like a bygone Fuck the labels, in the streets, he's a icon I got platinum on my wrist, it ain't tickin' though But I am every day, I'm a time bomb You think this all starts when I turn my mic' on? From a yute, man, I hugged my block in my high tops I sold three for twenty fives, I never signed on Police station's only place I ever signed on That's signin' on for bail VVS like cook, crack shinin' on my scale Just look at it dancin' Over here, it's fryin' like cookin' the plantain Mummy used to push the whip, now I push it to start it I gave you all my love and you took it for granted I'm rappin' all my pain, now just look at it chartin' I been all around the world, but I started in Barking On the Gascoigne Estate, sellin' crack at a bargain price Kitchen and carvin' knives, banged up for half his life You know that story though, told that one more than twice They gotta up my price, feel like I'm Declan Rice I used to sell bariis, look, now I'm rich for life
