Lyrics

Let me tell you about that day when everything changed
How I went from 9-5 to serving back on the pave
They sacked me from my job & it was due to my race
I guess should of known better I could never be tamed
So being stuck inside that system it was never my place
But I really needed bread & I was starving again
So plan in motion to go lick of that place
But my **** said Karn be easy & wait
Don't go & make a move cos how your feeling today
And the bud wern't enough I got bills to be paid
I have a duty as a man my kids are looking my way
So my brudda dropped man 3 fizz of the flake
I put it on the line & never looked back again
I doubled up, I tripple'd up man I just went all the way
I didn't wanna maintain I really need to paid
Instead 2 box of bud I grabbed a Nina of flake
Outside ten toes watch me streatch it today
Double bubble on the yay hitting shots in rain
All the numbers that I saw from the cane it was insane
Paranoid & feeling numb but the money was made
I sold every last ticket and they know I done well
Come a long way from flake cutting cane on the scales
Duffle bag full of bud & I sold it aswel
I shut down the whole market & the streets they could tell
Now I'm transitioning to go legit with skills
I can hustle anything I ain't new to this field
I'll sell water to a wale & sand to a seashell
But they're full of envy and they're hoping I fail
I said Time is a currency so don't waste mine
But Money hafi make so I'm selective with time
And I grind 24s the bags always on my mind
I don't wanna 9-5 or a trap line
Cos any money that I make needs freedom by its side
And I've done made mistakes but ima make it right
But it is what it is and I'm hustling legit I can hustle anything
In the day or in the day night
But it weren't too much when the line was still popping
In & out of flats and I was getting into problems
New cats daily from a uni or a college
And a man in a suit & tie always buying Oz's
Had a young g always tryna hit me
For a re he was buying 63 nearly every single week
And When I first met him he was moving like a fiend
Until he saw some cream & sold his heart to the streets
Think big work smart ain't no reason for less
But this worlds fucked up & got me feeling depressed
And there's demons on my shoulder I'm not feeling destressed
But there's angles watching over so still I progress
Remember when I didn't know my purpose
But I felt violent & violated so I used to go stepping
I remember times when I always had to hold weapons
Me Ikz , jones we was stepping with some cold leathers
Remember me & Lozza wrapping up on smoke settings
And me Niro having deep conversations
My brudda Rio come tru
With some dope lessons & their
Like Karn ma boy you know you gotta go get it
