Malachite - Left Back lyrics

Yea! Born July 3rd 1987 26 years going strong thank God 26 years who made me who I am today And who I'll be tomorrow Got a lot to take with me and a lot to leave back Malachite This ones to everything ama leave behind Yup! Verse 1 Zero in the bank account Haters tryna hate me No food on the plate Low shoulders no weight Baggage on ma carousel Life in a mental prison 9 to 5 living Slave to the system Uh, but now I'm freeing my mind Call me Neo in this game Yea I'm seeing the signs It's like the Matrix But I'm looking for the agents There's no more chasing pavements Now we chase stations, to get played Like Playstations, writings on the wall like cavemen Leaving back all my fears, my doubt and disbelief I got n***as on my arms, I got tricks up my sleeve Hook These are the things that ama leave back These are things that help make me These are the things that ama leave behind just To stay in ma past and didn't break me These are the things I won't take B Moving forward, moving up on track Down the line, up the line get back Defending my goal a Left Back Verse 2 Hate in my heart Sloth and the sickness All of y'all cynics Naysayers with sly gimmicks Life with the no mission Girls who was tripping Beta style living And all my competition Better watch how I'm shifting Aiming for pole position Getting 'em hearing so many Nah's like it was written Cause I'm closing all these doors, whenever I catch 'em slipping If they ain't on the boat they better be fast swimming uh Tackling life, I'm on my Kieran Gibbs and see I ain't gonna stop, like time I keep ticking Like mines I keep getting till I blow I'm so focused like it's a kodak moment Y'all know what! Hook These are the things that ama leave back These are things that help make me These are the things that ama leave behind just To stay in ma past and didn't break me These are the things I won't take B Moving forward, moving up on track Down the line, up the line get back Defending my goal a Left Back
