See one thing we can't get back in life is time
Spent enough time on these streets
Enough time trying to understand the things I knew I could never
But there ain't no restart button on life
So man just roll with it anyway
Ay Potter talk to me please
Old squad used to flash buses
Old squad used to rob budgens
Old squad used to rob mobiles
Please don't judge me I never had nothing
Just a heart, and the hope that being broke ain't gonna last
I never thought I'd make a living talking about my dead past
All my friends banged up and all my friends passed
They say P you've had it harsh
Harder than a bacon in a marsh, I gotta laugh
Shit, cause tears won't bring back years
'Nough weed, 'nough liquor, get a sit back hair
Fucking with enough stress that I push back hair
Old school I had my burner in a book bag
Old school I pushed crack trying to get fly
Little trackie, little trainers, I was good man
My generation turned the hood mad
Aged 16 I had my own scram
Young boy stressing like an old man
An old man who ain't got shit, you know the program
Old squad used to ride bird like bike
You know I earned my stripes
I had to like this shit was worth my life
And them washed up olders give the worst advice
Fuck that just watch me get mine
Old school when I was vibes, not P
Such a hard nut life, check me
Watching New Jack City on repeat
Thinking I was Nino in the car, I never came home for a week
My last dance Halloween, got a mask and sweets for a neek
I never knew a life so cheap
Shit, guess I just sow what I reap
I stepped out the house, I've been jugging, I slept on the couch
See usually I'm in then I'm out
But I got no chill when I'm out
Unless it's serious amounts
Darg then I smile like there's girls in my mouth
Darg I still fuck with them killers from south
I still fuck with them killers in ends
See that's family, I can't pick my friends
The struggle you can't comprehend
I reload and reload again
I beat these thoughts I'm possessed with intent
Cause I'm not content, I'm not content
Shit I'm in these streets
Now I'm better trapping these beats
I ain't been asleep all week
In the studio chasing my dream
And I feel to put it all on pause
I feel to put it all on pause
Man my darg's got bricks on fleek
And I got these chicks on me
And I love the way that she love me
But I told this money I'm coming
You know I'm a man of my word
Look how I made something from nothing
You know I'm a man with a bird
Turn your fave rapper Weezy, man I'll son him
If he knows me he knows I ain't bluffing
If he knows he knows I'm afraid of nothing
Fell in love with this money, I lost it
Got my mind moving funny, don't trust it
See today's mad it could be my last
Cause where I'm from shit happens fast
I've been up, I've been flat on my arse
Don't compare me to these rappers, don't know if they're gonna last
I don't think we're in the same league
I don't think we're in the same class
I don't think you read the rules right
I bet you wish that you could restart
I just want a house on a hill
A house on a hill real far
I don't do road, I do me
Still couldn't give a fuck who you are
Just give me my luxury car (trust)
And my tux and awards
And go tell my mum I'm a star
And I kicked in the door and I left it ajar for the real
I said it time and time again
Life ain't about finding yourself
It's about creating yourself
