[Intro] Hey
I was putting in work
The money came after
In the rave tryna get burst
Music, ladies and laughter
Yo, I fell down on the floor
My life got a bit darker
But then I got back up, and the fans said I’m the Godfather
[Verse 1] I’ve had times in my life that were cringeworthy
Real street life, yeah I see it from early
Could’ve been much worse off than I am, but I’m still the genius like Richie Turvey
Played with the fire but the fire burned me
Was a good kid but the streets turned me
Ledley made it and Ashley made it
But what about [?] or [?] Even back then when my flow was perky
Certain dons tried do me dirty
Buck my OG’s on the road, they’re certi
There ain’t much that can stop me or hurt me
One off – don’t die ’cause an MC cursed me
Been mobile ever since it was Mercury
The game took a turn when a man dropped “Flying”
Now I’m sleepless everyday I wake up early
[Chorus] Don’t hope for much but I just hope you remember me
Bigging up the MC’s on my team and the ones that send for me
A don told me the Godfather title ting it was meant for me
And it don’t matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me
[Verse 2] You see the game’s open, I ain’t loafing
Got it in motion, thought I was over it but I was, ghosting
In my own bubble but I never stray away from bars, I stay floatin’
I just stroll in, still rollin’
Deep waters catching man [?] I’m a librarian like Logan, and if I ain’t got it I can phone him
It won’t work if it ain’t real, I know the deal
People talk trash and the trash looks real
If you don’t read in between the lines you get lost out ‘ere in the field
Sorry, that’s real
Hold on for just a second and chill
I was Will back then and today I’m still Will
I still will, I still spray ’cause I love it
I could never regret it ’cause I’ve done it
[Chorus] Don’t hope for much but I just hope you remember me
Bigging up the MC’s on my team and the ones that send for me
A don told me the Godfather title ting it was meant for me
And it don’t matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me
[Verse 3] I used to buy cars before I bought houses
I used to get producer block, but now I go around it
Ay, I used to get arrested
I couldn’t wait to leave the police station
I used to be a eediat
Running my mouth in the beef with the paigons, it is what it is
I be the, backpacker, the first backpacker
The first grime kid to care about what matters
Listen to myself in peace with no chatter
Market my brand like patter
I remember when Titch had a bright green Kappa
Back then I was a full time trapper
I got the music in my soul and if you put me in a band I’ll play the maracas
[Chorus] Don’t hope for much but I just hope you remember me
Bigging up the MC’s on my team and the ones that send for me
A don told me the Godfather title ting it was meant for me
And it don’t matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me
Don’t hope for much but I just hope you remember me
Bigging up the MC’s on my team and the ones that send for me
A don told me the Godfather title ting it was meant for me
And it don’t matter what you say to me, I just hope you remember me
[Outro] Hey
I was putting in work
The money came after
In the rave tryna get burst
Music, ladies and laughter
Yo, I fell down on the floor
My life got a bit darker
But then I got back up, and the fans said I’m the Godfather
