Testament

Let me paint this picture of how I ended in this magazine
Started grinding in my school blazer and some Wallabees
Feds were knocking at the door, auntie mad at me
Being a go getter is in my anatomy
Can't be wishing on a star, had to grab me one
We're the kids that came through on em peds with a avi on
Back when we did the aqua masters
Way before we thought some grub and scales was gonna be the answer
Taught myself to drive in a Rover Metro
Them days if you wanna roll then bring some dough for petrol
Friday movie nights in Kiesha's house
Milford Tower, demon time, things I'll never speak about
The only thing I care about is legacy
Inheritance for my kids so when I'm gone there's extra p's
Call me old money in the family function
Seaside heroes, yeah I used to break it down in Boscombe

My life's been a testament
I ain't tryna live like I'm lesser than
Thrived in the midst of the decadence
Grind over preference
Mind over matter led to excellence
Now I lead the way for the rest of them.

My life's been a testament
I ain't tryna live like I'm lesser than
Thrived in the midst of the decadence
Grind over preference
Mind over matter led to excellence
Now I lead the way for the rest of them.

Bury me a G, on a jeezy one
Rose gold skele I was scheming like I need me one
Now we're treating hakassan like a shisha spot
No million views, still got the same deal that nina got
Joint ventures I'm a connoisseur
My man had to get his cards pulled, can't make those comments here
Wine tasting in a boujie spot
All I see is trophies when I stare into my jewellery box
Lost nan, the pain was overwhelming
You don't see the scars behind this smile,
You don't know my journey
Probation asking questions, wants to know my earnings
True they know your boy is sponsored and the homes are furnished
God helps those who help themselves
If they buy in bulk give em deals, that's how you help the sales
Had a spot in roe where I'd test the bells
Two seater, no roof yeah that's how you get the girl
White rice and some salmon with a touch of lemon
For the times they had me on that island, I was stuck in Devon
What a difference couple years can makes
Glasses in the sky make a toast because we're here today

My life's been a testament
I ain't tryna live like I'm lesser than
Thrived in the midst of the decadence
Grind over preference
Mind over matter led to excellence
Now I lead the way for the rest of them.

My life's been a testament
I ain't tryna live like I'm lesser than
Thrived in the midst of the decadence
Grind over preference
Mind over matter led to excellence
Now I lead the way for the rest of them.
