Whoa whoa
It's mad you know
When I think about think about
Think about the journey
You know the journey to where I am now
To where I was I was just 18 months ago
Months ago months ago
Know what I'm sayin'
Thank God
Thank God
Thank God
Ayo it's crazy how my life changed
The things I used to do for fast change
Now I'm gettin' bored of this fast Range
Used to sell rocks but now I'm signed to the Roc
And furthermore let me start from the top Aight go
I went primary in Brockley
Yeah them times I lived in Brockley
Back then poverty would block me Yeah
I couldn't move properly
Other kids would tease and cuss
But I just figured money wasn't for us trust
It's high school times and I wanna go Crofton
All the kids in primary would talk about it often
But mummy said no
She said that ain't the right way to go
She said the kids they have lost control
She'll find one of her own
She found one in Camberwell right next to the Narm
She checked the Ofsted report so she thought it was calm
But one thing that mummy didn't know
Was the area we lived in where
She wanted me to go d**n
That they were in a postcode war and it was peak
But mummy didn't know about the streets
Ghetto Boys v the Peckham boys
On the roads making hella noise
Turning South East into a jungle
Five years of school everything wasn't cool
But that place there man it taught me how to rumble
I left there smarter I left there harder
I left with no fear man was ready for the Gaza
Truth
I started rolling with the mandem from my borough
Deptford was my home man I repped the ends thorough
Me Pose' Risk and the rest of the batch
I got the nickname Rapman so I started reppin' with that
And it started getting hot
So me and Poser copped a wap
I was famous on my ends way before you heard a rap
Went to cop a nine-to-five but I couldn't save a rack
Then I switched it up to squares
But I couldn't count on that
A little after that that's when I started to trap
Ant drop me a box and I never looked back
Never looked back
I done that for the longest years
And I was praying every day that
God would come and help me switch up careers Amen
Videos out every month tryna get my name out
Stress
And I was scared to read the comments
Any time they came out true
Are they gonna rate it
Are they gonna hate it
What am I gonna do just in case I didn't make it
What will I do
Man f**k that failure's not an option
Why
Man's gonna make it I just need the concoction
Just need that
They say I couldn't buzz with stories
They said without radios and clubs
I wouldn't see any glory haha
But I knew that anybody that saw these
Would soon understand all the blessings that
God sent for me
He soon sent me Shiro's story
And my life all changed
Finally getting respect for my name
Got a phone call from the homeboy James
Said that I'm a black god
And he wants to help me take on the game
He put me on Facetime with Jay Rudebwoy
Ayo Jay
I was shocked you should've seen my face
A few months down the line you already know I signed
Plus I signed my film deal so my life was fine
So now I'm signed to the Roc
Plus my film's coming out
Not bad for a black man that grew up
In the ghetto of the South
Man I've come a long way from the trap days
Stacking up a supermarket shelf was the whack days
I never thought I'd be where I am
To make sure I stay up I'm doing all I can
All I can
Fam I could've been dead I could've been in the can
Praises to the most high it wasn't a part of the plan
See I kinda always knew that the roles wasn't for me
Facts no cap the real blue story
You already know
Smart boy
Dituction
