Test

(albüm: Ghetto Gospel - 2007)

Yeah
Like, you know when you just go through tests everyday
Whether if it's family problems or
Actual exams
Or things on the road that get you down
It's just a big test

My life's like taking an AIDS test
Nothing but worry till your results come
It'll be the same stress
As saying "I'm home, mum" with eight F's
I feel so done
And I'm determined, I swear, I'll become a nerd
How can I rather learn
When school makes this stomach turn?
Homeworks slow down my day like roadworks
Another day off, it won't hurt
But what a waste of a brain
I should've repaired myself mentally
Because life's full of assessments
Question upon question, it tends to be
School's out when the bell rings
But the test don't stop
No awards on my center piece
It's so ridiculous, no certificates
You would think I'm close to illiterate
Class clown, playing the role of an idiot
Calm down, they see I'm so inconsiderate
Disturbing the class, only music can hold my attention
I couldn't be stopped by suspension
As a freshman
I read books like Morgan and Shawshank Redemption
My only intention was to feed my brain
Beef the game, so, I don't need protection

Life's a test in it self in some parts
So I think it's best if we fell
I can spit, I can run fast
Some can't but they do less than excel
So, sometimes I question myself
Am I destined for wealth?
It feels like it's me against the rest of the world
Still, I wanna quest to prevail

Life's a test in it self in some parts

I can spit, I can run fast
Some can't but they do less than excel
So, sometimes I question myself
Am I destined for wealth?
It feels like it's me against the rest of the world
Still, I wanna quest to prevail

Whether it's mocks at A-Levels
SATS at [?]
The level of assessment counts on a test
And nobody's proud of an F in the past
I've failed, I've learned how to progress (Yes)
I got the power to protest
Speak out till I reach out to the streets
I need my CD in each house
Because my words would have a powerful effect
Qualifications takes phenomenal patience
And I ain't got none, not one
But when it comes to this music ting
I'm as smart as Carter
Ask my bars and partner
This star's a grafter
But I can't master drama again
They wanna put me to the test again
So I'm looking to invest in skeng
Is it worth all the arms and palava?
Plus my garms are Prada
I'm a yardie, it's bait
I wanna move, I can hardly wait
My heart's scared, so, I can't escape
To my mum, nan and my aunty [?]
That's partly the reason I don't party late
Because some niggas just can't behave
Why can't we change?
It's my life or yours, no hard exchange
I've lost time that are can't be gained
I got rhymes that my heart explains

Life's a test in it self in some parts
So I think it's best if we fell
I can spit, I can run fast
Some can't but they do less than excel
So, sometimes I question myself
Am I destined for wealth?
It feels like it's me against the rest of the world
Still, I wanna quest to prevail

I stand out from the rest
My future's planned out
But I'm stressed everyday I take tests
And I ain't sat down at a test
I feel like music is an illusion
I back down and impress
Still, I got a smile in my face
So I'm ahead by a mile in a race
My style [?] with both arms
Before I wasn't wanted like old garms
Even people around me doubt me will test
Even when you give it your best
There ain't no limit, my limits are flawless
From the first to the chorus
Back to verse, what's worse?
Doing your first? One curse for your [?]
Or being the best, and never seeing success
Because anything's possible
I pass tests that are so far-fetched
You can never half-step
I'm on point like a knife with a sharp edge
Daily, I've tested
And if it ain't the roach, then I may be domestic
A couple of labels may be interested
I know what my choices are
But some tests might spoil my path
If so, all I've said is pointless stars
But I break barriers, fuck an oyster card
