West To North West

(앨범: Back To Square One - 2023)

From West to North West, how I grew up weren't the best (Boom, bah-bah)
But, I miss the days when I was young and never felt stress
Spiff TV kept me updated with the mess (Bah, bah)
I was young watching Fresh, Samuel Jackson playing chess (Bah, bah)
I was nine, but I would never snitch if they hold man (Bah, bah)
That's when King Coke dropped, are you alone fam'? (Bah, bah)
Remember when listening to Johnny Guns was cool?
I was running 'round screaming out, "Lalala-lalala," it's cool
Remember, it was Cowboy and not C Biz?
Looking at the blocks behind my yard, I'm seeing in these vids
Like, these niggas look rich, I'm tryna be that when I'm grown
Then, I grew up, made millions of pounds, and owned homes
It's funny how things change (Funny how things change)
There ain't a street nigga man's age that's ever made man's wage (No, no)
This shit feel strange (Shit feels kinda strange)
When you're the bad energy, there's no point burning sage
I burnt weed, burnt skin, burnt clothes and burnt cars (Bap, bap, bap, bap)
Fireworks and ..., that's the heart of the ... (Bah, bah)
I'm charged, you ain't gotta push me to start
He overcharged, I'm robbing him, this plug's getting sparked
My jumper was duffer, SuperDry puffer (Bah, bah)
Fuck that, I wanted Frank and Marshy for the summer
I'm a boss, now, but, once upon a time, I was a runner
I built my own line, I swear to God, that was my come-up
Shit, it just hit, there's young niggas looking up to me
Gotta be careful when I'm preaching all this fuckery
Screaming, "Free my niggas," I ain't glorifying custody
But, I'm still young, think 'bout that before judging me
You ain't blaming Warzone and you ain't blaming GTA
But you blame drill 'cause you feel like that's the easy way
I'm gonna get there one day, I just don't know the ETA
But, when I do change, remember me for fucking up the game (Fucking up the game)

Yeah, I do wanna change
But I'll probably remember the same
Like, come on man, Digga D, that's an established name
But, I don't wanna just glorify the high life
I wanna let the young niggas know about the pain
Whether you lose someone, or you actually get hurt yourself
Always remember, it's health over wealth
And, I can tell you 'cause I've sat in like thirty different cells
And, I've got niggas that's probably in Hell
You lot gotta understand, I'm still young and learning on this journey
There's people out there, there life's just starting at thirty
That's not a excuse to keep making mistakes, 'cause I'm a man, I put my hand up when I'm in the wrong
That's how I was raised
But I feel like I stand out 'cause you put real in a crowd full of fakes
Don't get it twisted, I'm grateful for where I am today, and I appreciate
But like man didn't ask to have people in the comments talking about, "You got a platform, so spread the right message"
I can only tell you about my life, and if my life revolves around weapons, that's what I'm gonna do
2023, don't worry about me, worry about you
