Testi

[Verse 1]
Yo
See, right now
I'm facing time
And I don't know how long, it could be four years
Ten years
Could be life
Watch this
[Verse 2]
Last time I had a schedule, it said Maths and Geography
Last time I felt embarrassed, I was stood in the dock and my mum couldn't look at me
Last time I seen my dad, he was asking me if I'm gonna do this properly
Now they call me an MC, master of ceremonies
But time is the master 'cause time will turn all this to a memory
And I don't think I'm built for the industry
All the fake smiles and laughter make me want to turn into a mystery
'Cause I know what people are after
Critics and journalists trying to get to me
I preferred being a grafter, you know
Living under the radar with nothing but drugs and money to look after
[Verse 3]
Now I've gotta see television as a factor
I've got responsibilities, everybody wants something
But they come wearing a mask 'cause they're never gonna ask ya
Even a friend can turn to an actor
They act like they're happy you made it
But feel like they deserve your wages
And at that point, it's the end of the chapter
I'm losing friends, and gaining enemies
In fact more to the point, I'm losing patience with negative energies
I had to change my number 'cause conversations were lacking in relevance
I wanna be top of the food chain this year
I don't wanna walk with the elephants
I don't wanna go back to claiming benefits
[Verse 4]
I used to love money, but I don't no more
I got money that I don't count no more
I'll listen out for the trial no more
We don't have to be down no more but I'm facing time
I'm famous now so I'm facing time
They wanna know what I mean by facing time
If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd go back to when I had freedom but now I'm facing time
[Verse 5]
First time I've felt secure in all twenty-five years
First time I've felt like I don't need people to deal with fears
First time I told my dad I loved him, I was being sincere
But family's a word and words just don't mean nothing out here
I brought exposure to my city and I don't care
About those who feel like it should've been them and it's not fair
Bring me one other person that could've climbed these stairs
I know they don't want me to succeed but I've been saying my prayers
[Verse 6]
They wanna know what I mean by facing time
They wanna know runs through the mind of a famous guy
They think fame means plenty of money and a glamorous life
But fame is a jail and not everyone in here will survive
I'm new to the wing, new to the guards, I'm new to the whole vibe
For the things I've done, I'm facing life
Where else could I go? I don't blend outside
Looks like I'll just have to do my time
[Verse 7]
I used to love money, but I don't no more
I got money that I don't count no more
I'll listen out for the trial no more
We don't have to be down no more but I'm facing time
I'm famous now so I'm facing time
They wanna know what I mean by facing time
If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd go back to when I had freedom but now I'm facing time
