Wanna Say

I'm making waves in this ish Fat ish in a swimming pool shh So come and get your surf on with me I'm heading to the top in two ticks I'm like Ali in his prime But I don't throw punches I rhyme You fools are wasting my time So I'm putting my flag in what's mine I claim this patch as my own You ain't seen the seeds that I've sown I'm coming out clean and I'm shining Like Diamonds of Sierra Leonne I don't wanna be misunderstood again Like in my young adulthood when I'm doing what I can to ease the pain To feel good again I want my boy's to feel proud of me So when life kicks the shh out of me They know dad didn't act cowardly Demons never devoured me Coz I see my son's as a gift And I'm not religious or shh But when it comes to getting old They see I put in a shift Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I I'm 24/7 plotting From days that are now forgotten And what I mean by that Is I never lost focus Of where my goals where at Though I may have not strategised right When I first took aim tryna set my sights Now I've got that tunnel vision I could shoot that golden goose in flight Clip the wings on a payday Make it come down scream "Mayday, mayday" Cut throat with a razor Shave a little off to the side I can use that later One thing to get off my chest Is I wasn't blessed with one permanent nest I went west to east and then east to west And honestly couldn't tell you where I might be next But it made me who I am I guess I got through that struggle Passed that test And now while I'm juggling you'd be hard pressed To say I'm not giving it my level best So raise a cup if you've been there Now knock it back if you're still there That type of stress'll wear thin But this is the part where the work begins Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I I could say that I did all of this for me But truth be told this was the only thing that I could see To make a difference I gotta make music and be persistent Don't throw a song out, kickback and relax Get straight to the mic and make more tracks No rest for the wicked I paint pictures in your mind so vivid I could take you back to a time When I first wrote rhymes And my mam found them and went livid What the fuss with this vulgar language I raised you right I don't understand this What the fuss are you talking about Give me my stuff and get the fuss out Safe to say I didn't last there long Get to 16 pack your bags get gone So I moved out the house on bus Thinking that would remove some fuss Wish I could say that that got my head down Nothing of the sort it got me all stressed out Shoulda put time in my rapping Yeah but still I'm gonna make this happen Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I did it Coz I wanna say I
