My quiet observations on the bus city people lost trust[00:00:20]
Maudleys out patients are shouting with the pavements[00:00:24]
They looking rough can't get to grips so they end up looking worse than shit[00:00:27]
Maybe if I can see who there talking too[00:00:31]
I might talk to them to so they can prove[00:00:34]
The spirit never lies but before[00:00:36]
I get to try the clouds open up and let god cry[00:00:37]
Why is this white lady nervous cause 3 black youths come on[00:00:41]
So she checking were her purse is[00:00:44]
Make me feel nervous like they ain't my country like they don't really want me[00:00:46]
But mummy always love me[00:00:51]
I never had a daddy it was me and my mummy[00:00:52]
Mummy was my daddy I can either cry or see it as funny[00:00:55]
How you can have a child and then just leave[00:00:58]
Now I'm walking around with my heart on my sleeve[00:01:01]
Cause I'm effected anytime anybody leave[00:01:04]
You can see my scars and hear my silent screams[00:01:06]
I been reading books to analyse my dreams and to me it seems[00:01:09]
The only chance we get to make sense of it is when[00:01:13]
We put our heads down a little bit[00:01:15]
That's why I'm spitting it cause each one teach one[00:01:17]
And you can take it how you want done[00:01:21]
Right now I got a lot of work to do[00:01:23]
I gotta smooth out my edges[00:01:24]
Eat more vedges[00:01:26]
Listen to my elders[00:01:28]
Vibe with my peers[00:01:29]
Confront my fears and[00:01:30]
Finish this album[00:01:31]
Right now I got a lot of work to do[00:01:33]
I gotta represent the youth[00:01:35]
Speak more truth[00:01:37]
Eat more fruit[00:01:38]
Get wise with my years[00:01:39]
Confront my fears and[00:01:40]
Finish this album[00:01:42]
But it seems I get side tracked it's like a mind trap[00:01:43]
I get a call real late 'bout we're the foods at[00:01:46]
Cause certain man a certain place got certain food to[00:01:49]
Taste so my nikes are laced[00:01:51]
And I was never really one to stay awake through[00:01:53]
A working day for them little bit pay yo[00:01:56]
This nine to five is just killing me slowly but quitting is[00:01:59]
For quitters so I wait until they fire me[00:02:02]
But now no one will hire me cause[00:02:04]
I got more lies in my CV than a pro's had STD's[00:02:05]
When will they see I was born to reign entrapment is my pain[00:02:09]
I need to feel alive again[00:02:13]
I need a man that compliments my stride ovastand[00:02:14]
I'm this way until I die[00:02:17]
He has ambitions of his own so ovastand[00:02:19]
I don't wanna be alone I just need a little time in my zone[00:02:21]
This one goes out to my shotters in the alleys[00:02:25]
We're all brothers and sisters were all family[00:02:27]
All my sisters trying to raise there babies[00:02:30]
All the youth man with court cases crazy[00:02:32]
It's like the smarter you are the bigger[00:02:35]
Your worries stupid people are lucky trust me[00:02:37]
This one goes out to my people with ambition[00:02:40]
I'm still learning I'm still trying but for now[00:02:42]
Right now I got a lot of work to do[00:02:45]
I gotta smooth out my edges[00:02:47]
Eat more veges[00:02:49]
Listen to my elders[00:02:50]
Vibe with my peers[00:02:51]
Confront my fears and[00:02:53]
Finish this album[00:02:54]
Right now I got a lot of work to do[00:02:56]

Honesty is courage and since I got the heart of a lion[00:03:06]
Then there's no sense in lying[00:03:09]
I portray my life over violins no matter what it brings[00:03:11]
Least I'm being real[00:03:15]
When I look at my future I fear failure I[00:03:16]
Fear the fact that you might not like me[00:03:19]
I know I'm skilled but just maybe slightly[00:03:21]
What if my light don't shine so brightly[00:03:24]
I'm scared of that I'm telling you the truth[00:03:26]
I'm scared of that[00:03:28]
What if the doctor said you couldn't have children[00:03:29]
What if the system they tried to topple what[00:03:32]
I'm billing better living for all my ghetto children[00:03:34]
And I don't mean were you live I mean your state of mind[00:03:37]
Cause ghettos not just a place ghetto is a vibe[00:03:39]
And I don't need no boastie words or complicated flows[00:03:42]
If I know what I gotta do then I flow[00:03:45]
But sometimes I get tired sometimes I lose faith[00:03:47]
I guess that's the reason that we got to church[00:03:50]
Cause when you at the bottom of the barrel it hurts need something[00:03:52]
To believe in and god works you think spiritual is just hocus pocus[00:03:55]
What you really saying is you have not noticed[00:04:01]
Inside us all is a silent protest you can acknowledge or ignore but me[00:04:03]
Right now I got a lot of work to do[00:04:08]
I gotta smooth out my edges[00:04:10]
Eat more veges[00:04:11]
Listen to my elders[00:04:13]
