I was on the block, fam, where the drillers hang
I see a tinted car pass and I see it spinning back
Somebody wound down the window and pulled the trigger back
(Alright, you ready? Come here!)
I'm sick of that
I'm innocent, my man are militant, they didn't care (What'd you get?)
I swear a bullet missed my ear
Look what you man have got me in, this isn't fair
I was just coming home from college and I nearly got bodied
The police think I'm a banger just because I'm living here
Asked mum if we can move but she ain't got a thing to spare
Well, maybe this is the year I disappear
If I'm really being honest, I'm not built for this forest
I had a close friend, but he's from the other side
I ain't seen the same friend from his brother died
And I'd be lying if I said I wonder why
Eye for an eye until every one of us are blind
These dreams don't belong to you
They gon' come for you
Every wrong you do, yeah
It's hard tryna carry on
So you carry on
All this pain I know
Last night was a close call, I'm happy I'm alive
But if I leave my house again, I'm carrying a knife
And I don't wanna use it, I'll probably never use it
But I'd rather carry that than have my people carry I
Now I'm in the cinema with my baby, it's Valentine's
And I'm watching everything except the film and gyal beside
Some bruddas just walked in, loud and amplified
And the same thing I felt the other night was magnified
Ugh, these man are bugging
But there's something in these Calvin Kleins of parasites
If I'm hogged up in front of her, what kind of man am I?
I may never make it back from that type of damaged pride
Somebody called my girl a sweet one, then I reached my decision
Told my girl, "Go to the car and put the key in the ignition"
I just said I need the bathroom or else she would've argued
As soon as she walked off, "Who the fuck you tryna talk to?"
February 14th, still I march through
Last laugh, I'm the heart in a harpoon
Something sharp, the last 'cause it a scar on a half-moon
Film done, cinema closed, but I'm his last
Here's my long lost friend, as he come to my defence
I welcomed him with open arms, then he plucked me in my chest
And then I got him in his stomach, yeah, bruddas to the end
He dropped, I dropped, but one of us got up again, yeah
I staggered out the doors, blood pouring out my torso
Left the carpet red, you would've thought it's an awards show
Right now, I'm half-dead, to my gyal before my thoughts go
Also, I just left two man more sko
Babes, I'll explain when I minus the pain
But please stop screaming and driving away
I'm meant to be at home already, twenty-five minutes late
Now you got me throwing this machete deep inside of a lake
Cool, take me hospital, not the one in Newham though
Take me Whitechapel then, fuck it, you can go
Heartbeat slowing down, breath's getting shorter
I need a respirator and extra support
I ain't gonna make it, was it really worth it?
I ain't even seen her naked, was she really perfect?
I was just full of hatred, I wasn't even nervous
I shanked my brother near him, I ain't that kind of person
What the fuck a vibe? His mum's like mine
Prayer of my life, my workers are prayers
Even if I survive, fate, right?
These dreams don't belong to you
They gon' come for you
Every wrong you do
