SINK OR SWIM

Got so much pain that I hold inside, I don't talk much bout' it

Got so much shame from the games that I played, I don't talk much bout' it

But they wan' compete?

Why they talk bout' beef?

Them man ain't outside in the streets

So why you wan' talk much bout' it

Wait, oh-

What we got extras?

In the lab like uh, uh

and applying that pressure

Got love for the fans that invest in me early

Return coming like Tesla

I don't give a fuck what man been talking about bro I kill em' with pressure

Testing a desperate measure

Spun man like how many times?

Give a fuck what these man wan' say in their rhymes

Still talk bout' crime and you flopped it

I don't give a fuck man I topped it

And I heard that lil' bitch over there said I'm toxic

I don't give a fuck still chopped it

And I heard your lil' EP dargy its dogshit

I pass to my dawg watch him drop them

Go

Life's been testing ya boy

But I don't sink - I swim

Fuck a cup half empty, mines been full to the brim

(ay ay)

(Yeah)

Had to go back basics, from start mi begin

(Look)

(Had to go back to)

Yeah, I was a lost soul but, I been found

Working progress, working out

On top of my fitness - working out

High off that reefa, stuck in the clouds,

But I found my feet, 10 toes on the ground

Sky ain't my limit, I got no bounds

Trust in my spirit, words and sound

Tribulations, trials & tests

Nuttin' good don't come from stress

If I wanna gain, gotta hold onto less

Have more faith & worry less

The foot I put forward, must be my best

Days in the east, amongst ways of the west

Built my tribe whilst on my quest

Yes I'm blessed

Top bins, tech

Don't check me, if it ain't cheques

(Yo) Right now, manna anti

Two sides to a ****, just like santi

Live for the art, paint pictures like banksy

I been on my p's & q's so I thank me

You can't Martial man, I ain't Antony

I just do me, do that gladly

Chase my dreams for the sake of family

Found my feet, cyaan favour bambi

Life's been testing ya boy,

But I don't sink - I swim

Fuck a cup half empty, mines been full to the brim

(Yeah)

Had to go back basics, from start mi begin

(Look)

Had to go back to basics

From start me begin like

Pump up, tone up weights in the gym

Grew up as a grime kid, cold with the flows

Beats and bars, what you taking me in?

Caught a couple L's, fuck that I still showed up

I used to want love from my peers

Them man weird

Fuck that now I'm a grown up

I just wan' roll up

Hit a flight on my lonesome

I don't give a fuck about no one

But I might link my leng one in Barca

Et trobo a faltar

Come bless me

Yeah she knows I'm a 10

Knows, I'm a goat

Want's a **** back like yeah, yeah

Care less what them man have spent

Don't shout if it aint investments, yeah

Work hard and I put work in but what you bringing to the surface? yeah

Give a toss if man are improving

10 years barring, you stupid?

I don't need to earn stripes, like Ye' man I proved it

If I say one more thing I might lose it

I'm not feeling the need to compete

I'm a God, you're beneath my feet

All I need is one reason, better mind how you're speaking

Better not dive in the deep end

Big Crump

Cos life's been testing ya boy

But I don't sink I swim

Fuck a cup half empty mines been full to the yeah, yeah

Had to go back to basics, from start me begin
