Look, yo, my mummy come to visit me today and it was strange Cos we just got on after that I opened up a mango rubicon Pacing round the living room chillin´ with my music on
Reminiscin´ realisin´ that I´m movin´ on I took a seat cos I couldn´t stand the pressure of Never knowin´ if I´ll ever get the better of depression Livin´ in the recession, tryna make an impression in music They tell me that I´ll soon be gone, gone where? Listen to the realism a connoisseur couldn´t taste this pain Play this game, MC´s are chasin´ fame While my real life is hotter than a naked flame I use a burner just to play this game I keep it buried, so when it´s on I´m like the ace of spades I got a letter all the way from Spain, or Greece or suttin´ Tellin´ me to attend a court case but it´s a
It´s a new dawn, I felt nuttin´ but stress from the day that I was born It´s a new dawn, it´s a new day and I´m startin´ to feel like crime doesn´t pay It´s a new dawn, it´s coming like the calm before the storm It´s a new dawn, it´s a new day and I´m just really tryna wash the stress away
I feel like I should be on the road committing criminal offences It´s 2013 got us under false pretenses Cos nowadays the pretty girls are all pretentious and the gangbangers look American like this is Memphis Well I was taught to try and replicate the 90´s with the armed robberies the BMW´s and Nike´s
The gold chains, the hi-tops with the low fades And I see niggas make them pellets leave the 12 gauge Now that was my inspiration inspired by the wicked never felt no hesitation I was tryna be the sickest I nearly become a patient had to crush my alter ego it was destroying relationships with my family I can still feel the tension they don´t know if I had changed or if I´m going through a phase I put 332 words on to a page this is the journey of an evil genius Let me explain it´s a
It´s a new dawn, I felt nuttin´ but stress from the day that I was born It´s a new dawn, it´s a new day and I´m startin´ to feel like crime doesn´t pay
