lyrics

Couldn't even hit the funeral it was business as usual
First music money I counted that in the cubicle
They thought I was doin coke
They beat down the door but when I made sure the money weren't short it felt beautiful
Stuff it in the envelope security they envy tho
Tryna pat me down like the gyallie do at every show
Tell a fed ease arrf I slid to the VIP section where my gs are the gyal are like he's hard
Covid had me fucked up I still ain't caught the virus
Still got hella bloodlust it's all about timing
Grew up as a rasta
But don't mistake my kindness for non violence ya can't violate the lions
Hella seamoss you know my pride ain't tired
Tryna learn from us on the sly so they spy on us
There draining there energy the curse backfired
They feel me but can't reach me that's the vibe
You don't wanna see the spark when I'm inspired
All most praise to the high on Mount Zion
I remember Choice FM and I remember Trident
The blocks hotter than the climate, it's end times n
Nannys praying for me as I write all these scriptures
My school looked bigger in memories and them pictures
I walked past and that old LEVi I missed him, he was hella innocent but now I'm moving militant
Shooters and ubers I can order both with my fingertips
We was abusing pot noodles humble beginning shit
New plates when they was moist we still was diligent
Now we're all grown up with our doe up
I'll still get you pitched like the Emirates or Old Trafford big cuz showed me how to reup that's my old gaffer
I was 17 she was 30 that's my old slapper
Tunes that I write are head bangers and toe tappers
Rollin round with toe taggers, but we're still righteous
We're jus tryna keep the community hella vibrant
The next Raheem Sterling could be from the block I'm in
But he won't make it if he's in a dinger glidin
That's another family trapped in their environment
No choice but to trap and avoid sirens
No jobs, grades ain't poppin then it's dire
That's why there's hella churches in the hood the most high
Give us faith get a business idea and climb higher
But what am I gonna use to invest and get by
I saw the rose rise from concrete hella times I dunno what to call it but intervention of divine imma keep goin the moneys flowing they call me Strive
Or Levi we're scarred but fuck it we're still a tribe
The pains tangible unmanageable at times but in this game of life nobody's making it out alive
