THE START

If I look back
Think of my past
Yes I've always had it in my head that I would count stacks
Rubber bands, they wrapped around racks
Nice home with a honey, meanwhile I rap on tracks
If you're in your car turn the fucker to the max
Know this young boy grew up on the same tracks
Might've drifted away from the back streets but I still have plenty of crack
Nah I'm talking bout banter
I've got enough, I can write up a couple bangers
If you're asking a question I'll give you answers
But it boils my piss when you fuckers have no manners
Remember please with a little thank you
Or my fist gonna squeeze and I'll show you what I'll do
I'm only kidding, of course I'm keeping the peace
If you from the same streets, respect should flow with ease

I hope you don't mind me flexing
A young boy from a small town on the mic checking
1, 2, for the testing
This is how it all started
No I ain't messing
I hope you don't mind me flexing
A young boy from a small town on the mic checking
1, 2, for the testing
This is how it all started
No I ain't messing

This is how it all started
Fucked computer with a microphone starter kit
I was still happy and made the most of it
Quality was shit, but I really fell in love with it
Now not to flex but look at me now
Take a listen to the sound and the skills that I've found
I do it on my own from the writing up to mixing
On the side I produce music for some riches
Little bit of penny, can it be a start
Even from the first track I've been rapping from the heart
Looka, North East fucker
Got me saying YUPPA like my names Jack Bart
Coming from the DL15, Willo Crook side
County Durham vibes, black hoodie on the night
You can see that I'm a chav but on the inside
I'm a real nice guy with a dream to the sky

I hope you don't mind me flexing
A young boy from a small town on the mic checking
1, 2, for the testing
This is how it all started
No I ain't messing
I hope you don't mind me flexing
A young boy from a small town on the mic checking

This is how it all started
No I ain't messing

Man I need to get home
I've got way too many bars spinning off the dome
And don't check that cause they know who's home
Too much stress that is pulling on my back bone
17, I left home
Got myself a wage and I did it on my own
Now that I'm back, I'm writing in my zone
Will's way too sick he needs to get known
Looka
North East fucker
I told you from the start
Me and my bro been rapping from the heart
Doing what I need to do, to do what I wanna do
Only problem is from my family, it pushes me apart
Hold up wait a minute, don't even start
Northern boy down South keeping up my guard
For the first time in my life, guess what I've got
Cash up, cash up on my card

I hope you don't mind me flexing
A young boy from a small town on the mic checking
1, 2, for the testing
This is how it all started
No I ain't messing
