Let me take it back when I was a little younger

Me and my donny in a blacked out honda

A rex jacket with a big ting under

When it goes bang its louder than thunder

Let a man try me, i'll put a man under

Don't need stevie, make a boy wonder

Coulda been dead or doing a big number

Now I think back im like "yeah what a bumba"

Peddle bike times I was on a little mission

If i rolled out, rolled out with the kitchen

Young black boy that just woulda listened

Young black boy with the drill dad listen

Pops got 18, I weren't even 18

I was 9 or 10, I remember when i first held my strap

I was like 9 or 10

I was too young plus I was too reckless

We were so poor we had to skip breakfast

24/7 on the block like tetris

Rob man for his new phone and necklace

You ain't ever been there, you ain't ever done that

Class A in your bumcrack

I rest my two little bros on murder

But you know them man bust that

That was the old days, that was the old ways

Let me show you the new me

Haven't seen my g's in a long time

Watch when us man unite like rooney

Some people hate me, some people love me

Other people wanna shoot me

I keep myself to myself like chip said right now "everything bookey"

Most of my friends now wanna move sideways

Dem man wanna move funny

Don't wanna come to my shows, but wanna phone me when they wanna borrow money

Tell them man fuck off, cos everything sweet like honey

Tell them man fuck off, cos everything sweet like honey

Some man i'm cool with, some man I went school with

It's mad how we're strangers

I remember how girls used to laugh at man cos I had 4 stripes on my trainers

I remember man used to laugh at man cos I couldn't buy favorites

Can't you tell it's my time cos I spent 10 bags on a watch that's stainless

Mandem said its my time, you can do rap or you can do grime

You can sell tracks or you can sell shine

You can do shows or you can do crime

I'm like "rah let me make my decision"

Bros keep saying my ting sounds different

If I go broke trying to chase this music dream I swear to God that imma go prison

Let me go harder, let me go harder

Let me show man I does this

Man knows that I got this

And they love me from Essex right up to Toxteth

Kicking off doors now

Who the hell needs a locksmith

Man know that I lock this

I'm like a train with no brakes, I do 130 like whos gonna stop this

Mum said "you'll learn the hard way one day"

If i don't change my company, and then I changed company

And now I own my company big figures

Let me tell you why they call me big figures

Big body, Big head, Big flippers

Big bricks, Big watch, Big business

Fuck being famous I wanna be the richest

Bare girls now wanna slide in my DM

Dem girls getting nike air like TN

Probably cos my new watch cos me a BM

Find me a good girl for my BM

Daddys little girl now, thats daddys little girl now

And to me shes perfect

I'm out on road all day trying to make these sales and I hope its all worth it
