I heard they said that I’m the new sound poster child
Tryna get this picture perfect so I had to post a while
Now it’s sounding like I went and got a ghost to write,
Yeah so my G let’s make a toast tonight
Thanking God for all the harsh lessons cos they coached me right,
Death before dishonour that’s the oath we write,
I’d rather be up north in a jail that is mostly white
I gotta thank the judge you woke me up,
Cos the devil’s looking stripes and it won’t be us
I was just standing on the severy saying long me up
Now I’m talking prices with promotors when they phone me up
“When my verdict came back the judge was like “I’m looking at giving you life” and I was thinking “what you’re gonna give me life for this” but then imagine I had to go to some assessment with the probation so they can determine whether or not I should get life or not.
Do you know how mad it is to have to sit down with someone for an hour and they’ve got to decide whether or not you should spend your life in jail? I’m telling you fam it’s crazy”
It’s real life I came in well equipped,
The plug know my word is my bond I’ll never burn a bridge
Memories of Chubzie as I burn a spliff
Showing him my first bars in class when I learned to spit
Yeah I still remember how it all felt,
Rest in peace to all the soldiers that have all fell,
That’s the reason with this pen and a pad
I can’t hold it in, swear down it’s turning me mad
I had to shoulder it when I heard the death of my dad
And that’s the mode I’m in cos if I fail some friends will be glad,
Cos jealousy is cheap and betrayal’s even cheaper,
And if they prove you planned it then the punishment is steeper
“You know what’s mad yeah, I got convicted under the Joint Enterprise law. I remember even when I got knocked I was thinking “nah no way they can send me jail for something I didn’t actually do myself” you know like that. And by the time the case started building it got to trail, I was like “rah they’re actually being serious.” Next thing I know, the verdict was guilty and that was it, it’s kinda crazy fam I’m telling you”
