It's not 'God save the King' if he can't save my friends
I sing God save my family and God save my pens
I used to write songs on my guitar when I was ten
My tour drops tomorrow, wish I could've told me then
And people see the flowers, but my people see the stems
Reminding me to carry on my journey 'til it ends
My talent knows anxiety, it's weird the way it blends
I write my best music when I'm stressed, but it depends
No More Candles, good description how I think
I was fuckin' sеventeen, not even old еnough to drink
I been knowin', took Ls, I been growin' and that's the thing
Before I wrote a bar I always thought that I could sing
Pure delusion, but delusion is the spirit in the drink
Without that you're partying, watching other people clink
That delusion made me jump whilst I was standing at the brink
Now I'm here with three albums, it was here before I blinked
Penny for my thoughts could put deposit on a house down
Heavy in my thoughts, it's like my brain has got surround sound
That's why I write music; get it out of my head
I write songs to change my life while I'm laying in my bed
And Freeman knew about DreamWorkz, but never saw it released
That still hurts, it's like I'm feelin' something stuck in my teeth
But either way that makes me proud and I can't wait to perform it
Debut project like that, how could you fuckin' ignore it?
Lockdown, I wrote a tape just to focus on sanity
I crave clarity, not good with too much time on my own
'Cause when I slip into a rut it starts feelin' like home
My friends sing my fuckin' music like it's one of their own
I should really pick it up when people calling my phone
'Cause something happens to them, I'll be talking after the tone
But I'm a hypocrite, I'll rarely ever do what I'm told
But I've always been [awake?] man, when I was young I was old
The Sunrise Project helped me visualise my dream
Not a penny on promotion, but got 30-milly streams
How's that for a flex?
Still completely independent, man
How's that for a flex?
"Your music saved my life, man", how's that for a text?
I love you man with my heart
You wanna hear about my drive? I guess you'll push me to start
And I ain't braggin' 'cause I'm comfortable to glow in the dark
But please don't ever disrespect it, 'cause I'm proud of my art
Man, I'm proud of myself
And all you man that had my back, just know I'm proud of you too
'Cause all you people picked me up when I was down and aloof
I'll smash the tour because I owe it to you
Shake Dane's hand and sing All I Can Do
We come a long way, and to him, I say 'I'm proud of you too'
'Cause I appreciate the people that don't doubt what I do
And when my project gets released, just know that Skala's the truth
Man, I really changed my life with just a pen and a booth
Yeah
