Outcome

The last couple years I've just literally been holding on
A lot of things have been going on
Just cos you see me smile always
Doesn't mean that I'm going strong
I hold it in and I know it's wrong
Cos it always spills out a next way
Probably why I'm banging out the gym on my rest day,
Probably why I'm still smoking weed for my head space
Probably why I always feel scared to react
Cos I'm worried 'bout a next case

I'm just speaking my truth,
I was bringing it to school man was thinking I'm loose
The terrain gets harder, gotta play way smarter
So we mask up cos where I'm from losing face matters
My emotions are numb,
Got the spirit of my nan I wasn't raised by my mum
And she always taught me how to pattern myself
Probably one of the reasons why I struggle asking for help

Coming from a place where it's shisty
Grew up in the ghetto in the 90's
Death around the corner yeah it might be
Ending up in jail was very likely
But you know you live and you learn
And you put it all in prayers to almighty
I used to dream about this on a nightly,
Now I'm living this and I like it

I'm just reaching a point in my life,
I believe you can seek what you want
And it's long looking back when you lead from the front
No scandals on my name, been a G from the jump
I got a couple friends who got their heads in sand
Building castles in the sky told em get you some land
Cos it's easy just to dream bro, you gotta make it manifest
How's it gonna happen when all you're doing is standing there

I had a reason with sis
I was stressed about some things
what type of living is this
Like when they gonna leave me alone,
You know how long I dreamed 'bout having keys to a home
Yet still I'm up in court wasting money on a legal team
Like I ain't got a bigger dream
Sis told that's a minor bruv, your blessings will be backdated
Cos you're on the path to greatness

Coming from a place where it's shisty
Grew up in the ghetto in the 90's
Death around the corner yeah it might be
Ending up in jail was very likely
But you know you live and you learn
And you put it all in prayers to almighty
I used to dream about this on a nightly,
Now I'm living it and I like it
