There's a moment when every boy realises that no one is coming to save him, and that's when he becomes a man

And some boys never get there, and stay children forever

We grew up like flour, how we were self-raising

To get to our dreams we knew what the hell came with

Rapping like rent is late, I got no savings

Stuck with the burner, I'm holding out for the location

I lost touch, they lost face

I was better alone, don't take it the wrong way

I can manage hazards, Antonio Conte

I'm saving myself I don't need to cosplay

Go and tell 'em I'm on the roads, selling out all these shows

Recording shit on the go, I feel at home on the beat

I'm risking it all, and not 'cause there's nothing in between

I'm Bruce in his prime, I'm sure that he knows what I mean

My lawyer telling me the label covers the fees

Talking to execs and I was only a teen

I fumbled the bag, no lesson is gonna be cheap

Need dreams brought to life, that's why I struggle to sleep

You don't need to tell me how friends come and they go

So I give my heart to you and hope she call me the goat

For my self-esteem might take a different approach

If the music fails, can't wait to turn to a ghost

To be honest, I feel like I am losing the hope

My hoe, yeah, was scheming on me, but who would've known

This why you can never keep anyone too close

The jokes on you because I'm made for being alone

That's why I'm gonna cop before they go for my soul

Pay me in advance because I am gonna blow

I mean, is there anyone close? I'm kinda like an undercover spy, I'm a ghost

You get a little fame, everyone wants to be friends

Until you lose the hype, no one is there in the end

I don't know why these people pretend, human psychology is more than a mess

I'll get the AP, then might get the Patek, just for all the debates that we're putting to bed

Fuck the 23's, I'm tryna play for the Men's

Show the world that not all kids belong on the bench

Think you're ahead, you're going the wrong direction

Fall in love with a hoe, then you know the ending

Growing up to the world, I lost my connection

And somehow they're still expecting a good reception (forget it)

Shook to the bone, a face they won't see again

My brother's got the same genes, just want to be the best

The fans, I won't lie to them, I wanted to take my life, I'm feeling alive again

Listening to Dave in the rain was inspiring

Started plotting and scheming, thought I would try a ting

Now they watch from a distance, secret admirers

I'm starting to like the bed that I made, I'm lying in

I start my day when nobody's around bro, it's midnight

Cench saying live yours, fuck it, I'll live mine

Levi dropping game, he pay me a lot for his insight

Turns out the answers you need are stuck on the inside

Certain man don't even wanna know what that looks like

Kill another brother stuck on a push bike

Too many gangsters and not enough good guys

When the pride of a nation where the hood lies

So what do I do? I'm tryna show the world but I've got nothing to prove

Been tryna find a girl that's sort of been in my shoes

Harder to leave, it's better we stay on the move

Me and the team can't wait till we get in the groove

Like them stains on the corner that are so hard to remove

Want to jump aboard but those days you're apart of the news

I got nothing remaining, I left it all in the booth

In the game, I'm on a first name basis

But to all the guys, all they get is the alias

Nobody knows me better than my mother, and to her, her first born is an alien

Studying the tax laws and how to evade them

I ain't even the cure for the scene of impatient

The crowd ain't one of us, how long 'till you face it?

Stay lowkey, out the way of the movement
