I promise I'ma be a star but you don't know me yet
I know I ain't got the crib, car and Rollie yet
The world don't wanna cough up what they owe me yet
And they're all sleeping on me and I won't forget, how could I?
They put both their evil eyes on me, I need sunshine
Through my window, Gabriel to give me good eye
If my life's like a movie then I'm tryna play the good guy
But when the plot thickens, it ain't never what it looks like
Top tier, overlooking those I'm overlooked by
I overcook guys, I'm still picking hard work over good nights
I've been nice, they just make it look nice
And anytime I'm round them, I don't know, I just get shook vibes
I know that rap ain't tryna pay me, shit, I gotta cook pies
I promise you, it ain't all what it looks like
I'm taking lonely steps in my old beat creps
They locked my bruddas and I won't be next
I see him sitting in the dock, I see him hold his head
"Slow deep breaths", I told my boy
When they stabbed him in his back, he had to hold his chest
I promise I'ma be a star but you don't know me yet
No regrets till they throw me cheques
And when I'm winning, please don't be vexed
How you doubt me? You should know me best
You know, I can mix the tuna with the Ko-Lee best
Success, sometimes it's uncomfortable
They see that you're vulnerable and prey on the gullible
And show their true colours, I guess that's why the world's so colourful
It's like everybody's looking for some energy to feed off
Shit, I need a detox
Cah I was just licking work out in workout Reebok's
Trapping by the yard spot, teefing all the weed shots
I used to stay at Aaron's and I used to stay at E Dot's
Then I was in Feltham with the peacocks, majestic birds
Ride bird like bike them times, that was my ethos
So someone tell my haters, "Take a week off"
I'm the white wolf looking for the goats that you all speak of
They don't know that I've been fucking shit up since the beatbox
Ever since, living on the edge and then I leaped off
Ever since the dust from the Z was getting rerocked
Conversation with a fiend, he's tryna tell me where he's been
I'm tryna tell him where I'm going if you let me set the scene
I know you've seen lots but I'm a G in every scene, watch
How I stay myself but somehow recreate myself
Beat the shot, count the change myself
Go hard, wanna change myself
Sit in cells or my Hell just rapping 'bout the way I felt
Like shit man, I played myself
I promise I'ma be a star but you don't know me yet
I know I ain't got the crib, car and Rollie yet
The world don't wanna cough up what they owe me yet
They're sleeping on me and I won't forget
They locked my bruddas and I won't forget
I see him sitting in the dock, I see him hold his head, dread
I promise I'ma be a star but you don't know me
I promise I'ma be a star but you don't know me yet
I know I ain't got the crib, car and Rollie
But when I get it on, watch, I'm going Patek
Two seats in the Rari, bet it's lonely
Who cares though? I ain't been home in a sec
I know how to mix the tuna with the Ko-Lee
I know how to make the cocaine dance in the Rex
I promise I'ma be a star but you don't know me
I promise I'ma be a star but you don't know me yet
I know I ain't got the crib, car and Rollie
But when I get it on, watch, I'm going Patek
Two seats in the Rari, bet it's lonely
Who cares though? I ain't been home in a sec
I know how to mix the tuna with the Ko-Lee
I know how to make the cocaine dance in the Rex
