Jimmy, two goals on your under 19s debut

Stepping up from the under 16s

Two goals

Was there any nerves there today?

Yeah

At 3 years old, 2009

Is when I started scoring goals and stealing all the eyes

Started soccer totting

Had thoughts of world domination

Jimmy Curtin plastered on the side of Wembley stadium

Turning up to training even when it's heavy raining

Committed to the grind like I'm skating

Thought it was my destiny to make it

I felt so free I forgot all my worries when playing

Tunnel vision I was set I mean I thought so

Thinking big since my kit was too big for my torso

So ignorant, with pure aspirations

Always dreaming then never ever thinking about destinations

I was living in every moment

Experiencing joy amongst some other emotions

The luxuries of life keep my battery going

I'm actually flowing

I'm lighting up your day because cause I'm naturally glowing

I'm growing up, overthinking cause I'm socially different

Passion faded for the game when things became too serious

Barely playing only training to maintain my fitness

Would I have made a name or failed to reach my ambitions

For real

I thought it was my passion

And time reveals the truth and when you're young you can't fathom action

For real

I thought it was my passion

And time reveals the truth and when you're young you can't fathom action

Yeah

At 5 years old, 2011

I remember seeing Perez crash in qualifying

I remember seeing Jenson cutting through the field

So inspired that it made me wanna race

Lap after lap

Hypnotised so I lean forward

Sat in class drawing tracks on my whiteboard

Couldn't get enough at the time it was as light source

Dreams gotta be something you fight for

I was super bored of conforming to uniform

Never understood it when I see a passion ignored

Envy in my eyes I always seek more

Weak core bet I couldn't really firm a g force

After some time I got a chance

BIKC maybe I can be a champ

However I relied on a belief and not talent

I learnt that true triumph doesn't come without a challenge

Realised that we're all the same with different ways of acting

From the same cloth but with slightly different fashion

We all just tryna make our mothers proud and chase cabbage

We all have bad traits and bad habits

I thought it was my passion

And time reveals the truth and when you're young you can't fathom action

For real

I thought it was my passion

And time reveals the truth and when you're young you can't fathom action

16 years old, 2023

Started making music as a way to feel free

I was making rhythms way before I learnt to breathe

Lyrics always helped me understand my own emotions

Close your eyes and my let my words paint a thousand pictures

Cause one good verse could reach a million listeners

And one great song could reach a billion listeners

And all these songs could actually make me millions

2024 started picking up

Had my first show now it's serious

I made a couple quid from online streams

And 2025 is feeling like a dream

And 2026 could be what I need

In 10 years time where will I be

For real

I think I've found my passion

And time reveals the truth

I hope I make it happen

Is there any limit to your ambition?

No

Or any limit to what you think you can achieve?

No

Well, no

Cause I think right now

If I was to

Quit rapping and I say I wanna go to the NBA

I would be in the NBA

No you wouldn't

Yes

No you wouldn't

Yes I would

No you wouldn't

Yes I would

Why would you think you can make it to the NBA?

Cause I think I can do anything
