[Intro]

Hey

I was putting in work, the money came after

In the rave tryna get burst, music, ladies and laughter

Yo, I fell down on the floor, my life got a bit darker

But then I got back up, and the fans said I'm the Godfather

[Verse 1]

I've had times in my life that were cringeworthy

Real street life, yeah, I seen it from early

Could've been much worse off than I am

But I'm still the genius like Richie Turvey

Played with the fire but the fire burnt me

Was a good kid but the streets turnt me

Ledley made it and Ashley made it

But what about Ryan, Yogi and Kurdi

Even back then when my flow was perky

Certain dons tried do me dirty

But my OGs on the road are certi

There ain't much that can stop me or hurt me

One off, don't die 'cause an MC cursed me

Been mobile ever since it was Mercury

The game took a turn when a man dropped "Flying"

Now I'm sleepless, every day I wake up early

[Chorus]

Don't hope for much but I just hope you remember me

Bigging up the MCs on my team and the ones that sent for me

A don told me the Godfather title ting, it was meant for me

And it don't matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me

[Verse 2]

You see the game's open, I ain't loafing

Got it in motion, thought I was over it

But I was... ghosting, in my own bubble

But I never stray away from bars, I stay floatin'

I just stroll in, still rollin'

Deep waters, catch him and hold him

I'm a librarian like Logan

And if I ain't got it, I can phone him

It won't work if it ain't real, I know the deal

People talk trash and the trash looks real

If you don't read in between the lines

You get lost out 'ere in the field

Sorry, that's real, hold on for just a second and chill

I was Will back then and today I'm still Will

I still will, I still spray 'cause I love it

I could never regret it 'cause I've done it

[Chorus]

Don't hope for much but I just hope you remember me

Bigging up the MCs on my team and the ones that sent for me

A don told me the Godfather title ting, it was meant for me

And it don't matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me

[Verse 3]

I used to buy cars

Before I bought houses

I used to get producer block

But now I go 'round it

Ayy, I used to get arrested

I couldn't wait to leave the police station

I used to be a eediat, running my mouth

In the beef with the paigons, is what it is

I be the backpacker, the first backpacker

The first grime kid to care about what matters

Listen to myself in peace with no chatter

Market my brand like Patta

I remember when Titch had a bright green Kappa

Back then, I was a full-time trapper

I got the music in my soul

And if you put me in a band, I'll play the maracas

[Chorus]

Don't hope for much but I just hope you remember me

Bigging up the MCs on my team and the ones that sent for me

A don told me the Godfather title ting, it was meant for me

And it don't matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me

Don't hope for much but I just hope you remember me

Bigging up the MCs on my team and the ones that sent for me

A don told me the Godfather title ting, it was meant for me

And it don't matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me

[Outro]

I was putting in work, the money came after

In the rave tryna get burst, music, ladies and laughter

Yo, I fell down on the floor, my life got a bit darker

But then I got back up, and the fans said I'm the Godfather
