Lyrics

[Intro]
Uh
[Chorus]
Black sheep of the family
I'm just playing with the cards that they hand me, no, no
And I know they can't stand me
Ten toes no matter where I'm landing, no, no
But I gotta keep going
Keep showing that there's hope, you just don't know it
But it's hard when the world don't notice
Nearly lost focus 'cause they can't do it like this
[PostChorus]
They just do it for the 'Gram and the cam, can't do it like a man ('Cause they can't do it like this)
Do it for the zip and the kids while you don't live what you spit ('Cause they can't do it like this)
Nah-nah-nah-nah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, 'cause they can't do it like this
Nah-nah-nah-nah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, 'cause they can't do it like (Look)
[Verse 1]
I wake up in the morning and I ask myself
Is life worth living? Should I mash myself?
And put on a fake smile to please the crowd
Can't believe I'm here, wish Nana could see me now
Haha, amen
Say, man, you won't believe I ain't the same man
Picking up the pieces to reveal the same fam
That you left, that we used to have in that two-room flat
One Nought Street, West End
Didn't know, but my grandparents were invested
Believed in me while everyone else was leavin' me
Couldn't see what they seen in me, but had to lead the team next
Black sheep represent
Against the grain, it's why the other families want my neck, but
Won't collect the chips
Business-plan blueprints how I'm standin' on biz
They couldn't stand in my kicks
[Chorus]
Black sheep of the family
I'm just playing with the cards that they hand me, no, no
And I know they can't stand me
Ten toes no matter where I'm landing, no, no
But I gotta keep going
Keep showing that there's hope, you just don't know it
But it's hard when the world don't notice
Nearly lost focus 'cause they can't do it like this
[PostChorus]
They just do it for the 'Gram and the cam, can't do it like a man ('Cause they can't do it like this)
Do it for the zip and the kids while you don't live what you spit ('Cause they can't do it like this)
Nah-nah-nah-nah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, 'cause they can't do it like this
Nah-nah-nah-nah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, 'cause they can't do it like
[Verse 2]
The black sheep overcomes and adapts
Run it up from the back, wolf pack
The black sheep, outcasts on the corner
The only one healing generation trauma
One time, my black sheeps don't take no shit
Why swimmin' if they burn the bridge?
The black sheep, the one the family turned against
The one they turn to when their backs against the fence
The black sheep make it happen out of thin air
Watch the family function clear out when I'm in there, oh, yeah
I try out places, try to be fair
But I'm sick and tired how they talk all wild like they got veneers
They don't have it, I get it, you do it, I did it
You knew I'm in it, it's true, you gimmick
You lose, I'm winnin' on a mad chop
Don't confuse a black sheep to a black dog
[Bridge]
Roots gotta be strong to hold a family tree
Being by myself ain't new to me
But I know one thing
That nothing can't grow without pain
[Chorus]
Black sheep of the family
I'm just playing with the cards that they hand me, no, no
And I know they can't stand me
Ten toes no matter where I'm landing, no, no
But I gotta keep going
Keep showing that there's hope, you just don't know it
But it's hard when the world don't notice
Nearly lost focus 'cause they can't do it like this
[PostChorus]
They just do it for the 'Gram and the cam, can't do it like a man ('Cause they can't do it like this)
Do it for the zip and the kids while you don't live what you spit ('Cause they can't do it like this)
Nah-nah-nah-nah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, 'cause they can't do it like this
Nah-nah-nah-nah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, 'cause they can't do it like
