For life's battles, l'ma go for the bat like Sammy Sosa You can never cope, tryna build up a utopia Tryna spread them good words But these nerds keep comin' out the woodwork That's a minor too Tell me what you tryna do? You wanna be in charge, be my guest and try on the shoe, drifter ML's a man, now he's doin' real good Isla's the little one's bigger sister Lookin' at these tour dates Israel missin' out on me linkin' at the school gates They know I do it gourmet Meetings on the Zoom and we talkin' 'bout this puree We ain't the same, no, we definitely ain't, nah We make the plays, get the bread and liaise, yeah We keep on prayin', keep the devil away, yeah I made my debut, 11th of May The 11th of May I've lowered some defenses I'm masterin' my senses Feelin' real good, I'm feelin' compos mentis Been in it from the trenches How you just gon' deal with me weird? We was supposed to be billionaires No accountability there Feelin' claustrophobic, get me some air I know they're gonna say I'm unfair You can say what you want But you can never say, I'm not there Alright, fuck it, I'm gone You can never say, I don't share What the fuck do you want? I can't give you what is not there I hate we ain't been speakin' for years But you know what I'm like I'm not the best at clearin' the air But I hate when we fight I've just been workin' on me, takin' my time Let me get this shit workin' then be right at your side They don't know nothin', they just see when we flourish Been alienated, disrespected and punished I smooth with the objects and the shapes and the colours And I've got my little ones I need to encourage Feel like I'm scared to trust It's like I don't care no more because I cared too much Hardly got no friends left, but you know the play Nine times out of ten, it's gonna go that way Think about the memories we've thrown away You know them ways Back then in the olden days I got no complaints Friends been lost Paid the cost Trust me, I got mental blocks And it's all for what? Ain't nobody meetin' my needs I don't need a niggas belief Warned them niggas that I would fly I was just a caterpillar eatin' a leaf Nowadays my senses just be smellin' deceit, had to get me some peace The street's just a step-and-repeat that you'll never complete A man's just embodied with greed, and we'll never agree A old nigga stuck in the streets, that'll never be me Biggest goat You know how much London man l've given hope If there's someone else that's like me, let me know Flyin' over heads, l'm in a UFO Me, myself and I, I'm on my De La Soul, there's no more energy Tell 'em that I'm runnin' low, I got no empathy I'm like the centrepiece Got an event this week Then we on holiday, she's pickin' up the rental keys No one can speed up my ting, so nigga, let me speak I'm twenty years in, l'm pickin' up a mental streak Nobody fears him, I've never even read his tweets I got an ear for it Because he blesses me My missus there for me We got the best two seats Haha
