13 Going On 30

I was 13 going on 30

15, please, God, fix me

Pickney, 16 going on shifty

Uh, uh-wughh!

Young yute went to the brothel

We were shocked still cah they showed him the bot' bill (That's pricey)

He won't take a bad one Tinsel just to go town on the back of her tonsils

They teach us dogs eat dogs, so black men can't see their brothers and not kill

Then you got man scammin' on 'net, sayin' "Boys, if your gun don't rise, then your stock will" (Neeks)

I was young when I let you concoct pills and shot to people that really wan' pop pills (Pop that)

Don't get caught with the rock bill, this ain't no block film, there ain't no cop deals (No stories)

Bring your hot life to a standstill, if a man kills you'll be brought to a stop-still (Grrrrt)

Ain't no mountains or molehills, in the ghetto make our factory from foxhills

Would make disciples from my apostles, but I can't take their preachin' for gospel (Can keep that)

Ask for a small favour, but when the time comes, "Aw, Cris, I forgot still" (Fuck you then)

Mum worked hard for her yard, that's my darg, spent nights in a hostel (That's my darg)

Gotta protect my marge, oh my Lord, need to make Ps for my pops, yo

Fed men lurkin' in Brix'

Drop that kitch', ain't nowhere to dip, huh (Shit)

Trigger fingers itchin', B

Drop the wap, you can't scratch that itch (Can't scratch that)

Life goes on, it's sick

Ain't no L when a man move slick

Scream "Take risks and prosper!"

Check the roster, you ain't take no risk (Ain't done that)

Rest in peace T.I.

Bro turned that Q to a half, to a brick

From primary school that yute ain't switched

Gotta hide my video shoots from CIDs

Started secondary school

Mum said, "Learn your book, don't turn to no bad girl" (Behave, Cris)

Started to learn 'bout life

Became a mad girl, come just like this mad world

Teach' said I got so much potential

"Cristale, you don't know how much you have, girl"

Distraction to other in class

Eggs-up and fass

Can't lie, I was that girl

Young black girl, 3C, hair curly

Sip dirty rum punch from early

I could see clear, then life got blurry

Kinda half blind, but my sight still certy

Lord, please give me strength if I'm worthy

I know my weak points part of the journey

I'm 20 going on 200

'Cause I was 13 going on 30

They told me I've been here before cah my soul come old like stone and the henge dem (Oldie)

Bro dem come like my henchmen, still can't put no trust in my friend dem (My brodie)

Label wan' buy me for sentence, buy all my sentence, sign they addendums

Said, "If we're gonna make Ps, then send them"

Bad people, I don't care to offend them (Take offence then)

Still need love and affection, but I question "Is this my dimension?" (My ends dem)

Need to get tested for match syndrome cah I'm on the lit end of the spectrum (My spectrum)

Teachers put me in detention like "Cristale, now you've got all my attention"

Sent me home before lunch for fighting two boys, affirm that suspension
