(Intro: Tehn-Diamond (Talking) )
I got my shoes off as usual. I just realised i like to take my shoes off cause...you know... i like to feel small. I like to humble myself before the music i guess. Before the mic atleast
(Verse 1 : Tehn-Diamond)
People see me, and they all say these days, this year's yours
Played “Happy” and thought ‘nah that boy's gone'
Then “MaDrinks” came like ‘that's that song'
And I was like “yuuuup, that's my dawg!”
That's why now, what they feel's unfair
That's why now we the meanest pair
Like a brand new white Dunk-Hi right there
Cos the stars have aligned, we the hype this year
Realness on the mic, live we ignite
Like night lights shining from the stars out here
Could not have written it better, this is God out here
Cos I remember looking in the mirror last year
Like, this is it, this is our year I swear
Like “The Year Before That”
And “The Year Before That”
And “The Year Before Rap” like ‘dude, what you gonna do ?'
Caught a plane to college, wasn't really for you
Skipping every cla** you eating noodles and soup
Not that you dropping out, is it really a good move
Till I took a firm stand and I told that dude
I never wanna hear your version of my truth
I'm looking in this mirror cos I might need you
And ten years from now, we gotta say that we made it
Ten years from now, we gotta say that we great
Came and never left
Did it right to the d**h
Put it all on the line, for a little bit of respect
Never took no “no” when all we wanted was “now”
When we just needed a beat and Five supplied crowns
Back then it was mom and the boy Deekz who really believed me
Wanted for more than anything heaven to find me
So he never understood, why I never chimed in
To step right up and sing these songs then
Like I used to, outta the front of the clubs there
Not singing for food, people and love then
Till I'd get a call from mom and finally see clear
I can't just sit the fence and feed fear
I gotta let go of the light that I got here
And shine so bright that I burn in my own glare
Or at least get mama a home of her own here
So every single night I'd just sit on my scared
Till I found a way to right my wrongs with just pens
Black ink, pieces of paper, like just this
The only place I had for emotions to just fit
The only little moments I knew I could just sit
And not be anything other than me and my dreams
Wishing to get up and lead, a million other like me . . . PLEASE
Just like you, who only wanna believe
And cling to the pieces of who they are in this beat
And then thank me for teaching them how to see
So despite all the ups and downs and cried tears
I'm finally feeling free to say this was a dope year
