See when I get to deep thinking I feel like a DiCaprio, but the ship is not sinking Been watching these other MC´s In my rear view mirror To the point I had to start blinking I´ve gotta rethink it Cause I don´t wanna get entangled I´m not Pinkett I keep a little 950 just as a blanket Cause when I was young I had 3k in the back garden I had a 125 with no reg plate are you mad Didn´t even have plastics on the bottom But it was the best bike I ever had I said i´m tired of constantly talking about the past It´s been a long time since I had to wear a mask
And pulled up and kicked the door until there wasn´t any glass As if i´ve never had a wing on smash I keep a sword and shield to my right and my left I was on the battlefield doing Macbeth You can keep the east and the south and the west I´m the king of the north got it tatted on the chest And they´re still tryna catch my fire in the booth numbers Still getting paid from my M.E.N. numbers I´m looking at a box of 50´s and there´s 100´s And the beef ain´t over till we´re 6 feet under And I know he likes to stab man I always get the memo If I´m dealing in boxes I have to get a demo They´re looking at it like it don´t belong on the curb
But when you get a Rolls Royce you can park on double yellows They can´t relate to me anymore They talk like the plan wasn´t to escape Like we didn´t discuss living in Spain But when you really do it big nobody celebrates 92% healed still limping See what happens when I get to deep thinking When you really from the roads And you blow and explode Starts feeling like your home town will never stop shrinking I was in Japan bumping into fans Tell the label I don´t need the advance I was 21 before I´d ever used a bank Me I used to love rubber bands Before I ever got an M on YouTube I had 50 And that was dirty money
And I´d bring a load with me when I had a music video Now I see these new up and coming rappers I can´t really see that kinda dough In M.E.N. one I had 20 in the bag That´s a laundering charge If they´d have come to the gaff We used to rent out apartments So we could pour buckets of dank into the bath When I think this deep I never get no sleep And the price of living isn´t cheap With a gardener a cleaner an accountant And the vehicles are luxury So they need cleaning every week Turns out there´s no one you can bring with you When you´re the only one to see the bigger picture When they start wanting handouts
I just let the bridge burn like it was a blue slim Rizla I never worked a day in my life Tell a lie, there was this one time I worked a 9 to 5 And I would come to work 8 Z´s on the back seat And I collect money on the top floor at dinner time I was a sheep dog When a shepherd let me hold a beater 10 years before I´d ever touched a meter Playing team death match as if I was a solider But that´s just Modern Warfare Welcome to the bees nest, home of the killer bee It´s cold in the north so we keep artillery Made a couple mill last year And the year before that It´s only right I make that a trilogy
We don´t need lions in the camp, we got kings Don´t need a right hand when the jab stings And you never need gas when you´ve really got straps And we´ve all taken losses but we took em´ with class When I lost, you seen a Subaru fly past And you can ask Arms if we got it right back When we pulled up were we tryna´ hit knee caps And aren´t they lucky they never got kidnapped They were bad on the phone When they seen us they flapped You win some you lose some, you learn and adapt I would never trust bitches, they´ll set up the trap Trust nobody, stack up money until you can relax Welcome to the thoughts of a street kid that made it
Welcome to the mind of the one that went first I left the door open so them man can go and get wages Nobody this independent, they all signed to labels And that´s why a crown is my pendant I said nobody this independent, they all sign to labels And that´s why a crown is my pendant
