Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yo-yo-yo-yo, listen, yeah
Alright, yo
[Verse 2]
Yeah, this last couple years felt like a lot of pressure
You're spinning round in self doubt under soggy weather
I false started I was gone but now I'm back, I'm better
To all of you that held me down just know I won't forget you
Was feeling tired, I won't deny I almost kinda quit this
Struggling to feel inspired in amongst the richness
Yeah, the bullshit, the politics and business
So many raps to finish, yeah, Seb and Pas can witness
Been re-recording every track, man, couldn't catch that feeling
Been balling up the empty pages felt like actually screaming
Fifty hour weeks at work to try and keep afloat then
The enemy of progress, this industry's a process
Back and forth across the country, opened tour for family
Loyle, Barney, Aaron, Billy Brims, Harvs and Frankie
Yo, they showed me 'bout life beyond Camden and Hackney
That's why I'm sending love 'cause them, man, there backed me
I almost signed a record deal, my mumise thought we made it
But the timing weren't right so I couldn't take it
People ask about regrets, ask me, would I change it?
I got integrity not signing just 'cause someone's famous
Damn right, such is life, so I kept it moving
I put in hours every night and, yo, I kept improving
I went and put my life all inside my music
And now I'm eating off the puddling that you'll find the proof in
Dropped my first EP and caught a couple bookings
Built the studio so now we got our place to cook in
Spent so many late nights tryna get the tracks right
So many days fried tryna get them raps right
Shouts to root, seven-three, believe the teams been growing
Thank you, Asher, my G, for the believe you're showing
Elisa, Srig, Eerf and Maya, yo, let's keep this going
We built this scene of young MC's, time to peep the roses
You know this been underrated, living understated
Worked for twelve months and now I'm wondering where the summer days went
Yo, been working hard, but feel like nothings changing
Watching bruddas sell they souls for a fucking pay check
Shit, but, yo, that's cool that's their life
I play the game to take it all and then I plan to share mine
We weeded out the snakes now the plans are air tight
Concrete Clouds on the way sending shouts to hairline
