I’ve been tryna keep up with myself
what a hell of a task
Mum says I’ve always spoke like
I been here in the past
All the knowledge from my ancestors
prayed on all my transgressions
Kings never speak
they give orders with a hand gesture
I can show you the tekkers
They used to listen to my calls
they used to go through my letters
But I still found a way to speak in
code to my bredda
And when it’s all said and done
I’ll be a goat to remember
I never claimed to know it all
I’m just giving my view
When you figure out your purpose
like who would’ve knew
Mum called
she said I spoke really well
on the news
When I think about my past at times
it’s left me confused
Like where was
all this brightness buried
when I was going hell
When the judge read out the sentence
was a nail to the head
I weren’t meant to get caught up
but I fell for the bread
Guarantee I’ll turn this round is
what I said in my head
Gotta keep up with myself
I can’t get up
They talk that talk but couldn’t walk
inside my shoes nah
On a move like what’s a brudda
gotta do yeah
Making moves like
what’s a brudda gotta do yeah
Meanwhile they were praying
that I fall
I was down with my back
against the wall
I had a dream that I had it all
I told myself I had to get it all
When the going gets tough you
find some solace in your struggle
And the mind deteriorates
when your problems start to double
Running on the roads man
was living in a bubble
That will burst really quick
when they hit you with a couple
I’m just telling you this ting bruv
Killers on the roads in jail are
catting for a wing job
And your family’s gonna feel a pain
they never dreamed of
What I’m tryna say is fam
don’t get yourself binged off
I’m breaking down the ting cuz
Plus I’m leaving footprints
Something you can follow
when you get out of the hood king
Wanna get the gold gotta
make a lot of good links
Grabbed a couple checks
here and there
that’s a good drink
don’t care what the hood thinks
I realised my destiny
long life and good will for people
that were there for me
Medallion round my neck
got the haters wishing death on me
Told a young boy
you want advice
you can send for me
You know the vibes though
Gotta keep up with myself
I can’t get up
They talk that talk but couldn’t
walk inside my shoes nah
On a move like what’s a brudda
gotta do yeah
Making moves like what’s a brudda
gotta do yeah
Meanwhile they were praying
that I fall
I was down with my back
against the wall
I had a dream that I had it all
I told myself I had to get it all
