[Intro]

You've heard it multiple times

Be a doctor, this they weren't expecting

I'm telling mumzy bout my passion

There's no time for resting

Yo whats the word up in my lane was near to curbs

They tried to aim for man but

I ain't into chat

I learned to keep it stepping

Seen guys gain their strength from another man's weakness

That can't run J-U double G, jugging every week

Bread up on my mind since I was young

I was greedy for seconds

Nowadays it's seconds on my plate to see my people eat


[Verse 1]

Reason to why I grind

Everyday I'm tryna see loads

Seen bare potential and waste it

That's how it be bro

Put that on gang

Aim is to get out go ask Jordan Peele

Us never them ignore their nopes I had to reload

Still I got one shot like it's a free throw

A menace on the flow

I feel like Denis you would've thought I'm linked with Beano

Ain't to good at mathematics

Still I don't need no number line to get back to a ten when I be feeling I'm on zero

Tell my people dem don't struggle nah

Cos I'm still

Paving a lane for my name

I can't sleep I love hustle hard

Still I'm shining through the dark

I sympathise to Tony Stark

We've both got holes to fill that's empty

Trying just to heal my heart, it's crazy

Used to think if I weren't one of them that I can't run with them

See I weren't moving smart

Began a new wave

Tell me why would I now leave a pool

I couldn't manage her (manager) I'm out the field call me Steven Gerrard


[Verse 2]

Nah what do you expect from me

A real battle giving love in a world that's filled with hate and loads of jealousy

I try minimising enemies

Avoiding life's cycle

If I'm trapped and I get caught it's wraps cos that's the end of me

Heart is racing rapidly

I know I've got a point to prove

I'll keep it real

If all you do is talking what's your point of view

Was like a coyote chasing my goal while they gave me a bruise

Animal cruelty, couldn't jack it (jacket) like Canada Goose

Done it before now I'm supposed to do it for the generations

No relations

Making my own plans, hows that for segregation

Kinda really hard to hold it down with all these expectations on me

(Kno-Kno-Knockzz turn it up)


[Outro]

Cos still I'm tryna be better

Cos better is what they want from me

This that path that you're choosing

Well you're losing, that's their honesty

Is it really destined for me

Come to pass like it's prophecies

Cut me off the harness, set me free

There's nothing that's stopping me
