Believin'

I been thinkin' when I had to make sacrifices
Started out young I never planned a crisis
They locked us down they musta planned a virus
I got it now hit the stage an' I'm demandin' silence
It's all black an' white it's
Add a bit of vibrance
It's all guns all knives all violence
Capital city they'll be sirens
Police tridents
I got the heat like hydrants
An' now I'm sprayin' it out
They got my CD poppin' an' they're playin' it out
When there weren't no zeds around I had to stay in a Drought
Had to move from the north to make a way in the south
That's a twelve to six like they're halvin' it down
I can't stay in the sticks I love the city an' town
Headline shows I'm really shuttin' them down
Started out at sixteen an' they were puttin' me down
I had to turn it right down
I get the hard beats an' then I make the bright sound
I'm from a dark place where they turn the lights down
I've been tryna stay afloat an' pray I never might drown
Take another draw an' then I blow a white cloud
Feel this karma comin' right round, UFC five rounds
Like I'm stuck in the cage
See me on a night out, drippy with mates
I'm from a nippy estate
I'm bringin' the flames
I'm tryna win me the games
I'm tryna live it in space
I'm givin' my all, tryna run up my name
Make it greater than Dane an' I don't rate all the blame
Some days it gets the best of me
My recipe, the rest of me
Grindin' every day there ain't no rest for me, it's best to be
I don't know why they testin' me
But to my face, they're always blessed with me
It's madness, I'm at this
I clean up an' catch this
I patch this, got tactics, do pack flips
An' not no backflips
I stack chips an' wrap spliffs
Lives like a movie an' I act this, I got a team to back this
Business meetings an' dealings
Heart has no feelings, positions I been in
Figures they reel in the booth is for healin'
I raise the roof an' the ceilin' to fit all the Gs in
Started out with nought then I slowly got the Ps in
Never been caught but if I do then I'm appealin'
Now it's Cali buds every time the greens in
Lights flash an' its steamin', white ash creamin'
Yeah brudda I'm still dreamin' an' schemin' believin'
Yeah, I said brudda I'm still schemin', achievin', believin' in me
