442 Lyrics

Let me rewind the tune, I'mma reintroduce the ways we've been trying to find peace

Forget the cash or the tax or the nearby road, our heart is so low, repeat

Try and make ends meet, now can't take all the memories

Medicine of laughter, flow getting faster, dreams of earning hundred milli in a week you see

We talk trash to ourselves too easily, trynna set an image of a person we could never be

We set goals, we work hard, we get sleep

We run miles and miles until we can't breathe, speak facts, yeah no cap, it's getting chilly

From Lagos to London to West Philly, been broken together, we had to build cities

Dig deep, finding answers to the questions that people were scared to mention cause the lack of opportunity meant that

the melody in our minds, getting abused by the pressure of a daily grind

Led to setbacks, you know how we get back, the future is bright, I got the drive but my tyres lookin' dead flat

Stuck in the hills, might need a jetpack

Birds eye view when I'm looking at the sea, I'mma paint these rhymes into a picture you can deep

When you step into my lane, no language to speak, it's a vibe derived from culture, you see

You and me, we all got problems underneath, some store it away while the rest use it to leap

I write these rhymes in the hope that I can preach, a beat that slaps a flow to rap but

Wishing that my words can reach, I've been teaching myself how to stay on my feet

Too fly for the ice quick Jordans neat, fifteen quick strides but I ride to the beach

We've been crying for long, dry marks on our cheeks, 'alone in this together' like Santan speaks

Yeah, the rain might fall, but sunshine leaks, man don't stop the grind cause we earn our seat

Like, let me rewind the tune, I'mma reintroduce the ways we've been trying to find peace

Forget the cash or the tax or the nearby road, talk heartless, soul or repeat

Try and make ends meet, knock on, can't take all the memories

Medicine, laughter, flow get faster, dreams of earning 100 million a week, you see

You see what I see, on the road low-key, we don't go pricey

Grey sweat jacket, a blue pair of Nikes, redefine culture like we living in the 90s

No way, I don't know how to say what's up, sometimes I find rhymes that don't add up

Lose track of what's good or what's messed up, been stacked with no good thoughts, they build up like..

4-4-2 like Tom we Cruise, don't hit up the team if you ain't got moves

If you not been through, if you not got tech, if you not got heart, then you might get moved

Cooking the heat like Ramsey, might go Glasgow, might go Wales

Man's angry, shouting for taxi suit no tie and his face gone pale.

Tears dripping on a wet pavement, through the glitz and glamour, it's a haven of pain

Never the same, nothing to gain, spending our life on the side with a bad tide

In the hope that something will change, you got any change, we playing the same game

I'm a villain in yours, a king in mine, throw the dice, let's play it again

On a real note, temptation, all our patience fading away though

Man, tryna get away from it all, no pay for it all, see snakes like Draco, right

On side like fries, no beef man, pepper this beat like it's getting

Salty, you call it a restaurant, I call it an army, we never the same

Cause the people around me got more than you have, have you ever seen it switch up like that

Two-faced cause they don't have your back, new name when they run on the tracks

In the back of the car, I'm suffocating, only waiting for the moment that you were claiming

It was all gonna feel right, knees weak but we climb, I don't need no decline

Like watch, max level reach, Verstappen, people tryna write us off but they don't know they're capping

Make it through the woods, Tiger, I can make it on my own, I don't need driver
