lyrics

I used to want to be understood
got older now i understand
don’t forget what got you here
one of my bredwins told me that
dam boy here prayed for my death
God said that she aint’ hearing that
i know they didn’t want me hereabout guess what
here i am
i know they don’t like me, but i like me
been out here all these years & still giving off style
i got some real ones beside me & the bullshits behind me
i don’t ask for favours but i’m favoured highly.

kill of mc’s slyly
kill of mc’s lightly
beg one mc they me
sick of mc’s, i might be
sicker mc,I might be
if you felt like i dissed you
fight me
power misuse it might be
aim & miss you unlikely
my freestyles are so pricey
any issues,Find me
birthed these mutes like i’m Kylie
war with them like i’m Kylie
spin them around like i’m Kylie
ball on them like i’m Kyrie
i’m too cold i’m too icey
disturb the ends just like Tinie
You got it backwards like Tiny
until my p is not tiny
i’ll dead a mute that talks lively
So don’t gass or don’t try me
I’ve been,Off the ends
out & about they wanna fly me out
mad they want to hire me,becuase i roll deep like scratchy &
nah thats bait..
ok switch up the style
different pattern entirely
i wasn’t myself
i wasn’t like me,Then i had t remind me

I used to want to be understood
got older now i understand
don’t forget what got you here
one of my bredwins told me that
dam boy here prayed for my death
God said that she aint’ hearing that
i know they didn’t want me hereabout guess what
here i am
i know they don’t like me, but i like me
been out here all these years & still giving off style
i got some real ones beside me & the bullshits behind me
i don’t ask for favours but i’m favoured highly.

Life is good i can’t complain
you know how it gets though,One take
i’ve been down so i know how the dust tastes
but i’m still living by Gods grace
I don’t know why their talking like i just came
last year i never had an off day
i was shotting everything like hot cakes
sitting down thinking that lots changed
when it was long nights
when it was long days
the nit was me & DV on the bunk days
when i had a picky head,No fade
when i had the blue rover.
The old shape
Sitting thinking that one day
this gotta make me a one change
now mana pattern & you know i watch no face
i mind my own business like i sole trade
these lines get them high like cocaine
they aint clocked the powers, ok
i’m speeding fast in my own lane
i wanted to be like them man there
then i clocked im nang in my own way
really,i was in my own way
i aint going back to my old ways

I used to want to be understood
got older now i understand
don’t forget what got you here
one of my bredwins told me that
dam boy here prayed for my death
God said that she aint’ hearing that
i know they didn’t want me hereabout guess what
here i am
i know they don’t like me, but i like me
been out here all these years & still giving off style
i got some real ones beside me & the bullshits behind me
i don’t ask for favours but i’m favoured highly
