Caterpillar Intro

Young caterpillar
You have had your journey through the soil
But now its time you fly
But before you make your transition
Take it back to where it started

I know where there's shade there's light
And where there's pain there's life
I know where there's shade there's light
And where there's pain there's life
I know where there's shade there's light
And where there's pain there's life
I know where there's shade there's
I where there's pain there's life

Uh, che

I've been binging on Russ interviews
Just lived out my album, time to write my interlude
I wasted so much time doubting, thinking I'm lose
And now I'm throwing out my trainers cos I need some bigger shoes
So I can boss in these steps
I think that I'm the best
They didn't wanna invest and now I'm clearing all the debts
These are tears, blood and sweats
Think I care about who's next
I'm on the field, and I play me, I'm both sides and the ref
Who said that I can't flex, sorry
This is spiritual, I've been through physicals
And you don't wanna see this flesh body
Wake up and I stretch
Bout to count these reps
And even though I say I wake up, more time I aint even slept
They knew me for the bars, but I weren't at no radio sets
Bring them titans round me, you know I'm coming for their necks
Mirror mirror tell Shadey who's the best
I went through a transition, new level, now the old me is dead

Its like died and resurrected
Now I pull up in the vibe and they feel my presence
Take a walk through my life, learn a thousand lessons
So much trauma in my adolescence
Use to walk with my knife, that was my protection
I replaced that with the sword, that a sharper weapon
The eyes the window to the soul, you can see the depths
I'm a student to the game, thats what my pupil said
I still walk around the ends and they show respect
They cannot not forget
I gave my life to Jesus, so I'm never seeing death
I knew that I was different but I never knew the depths
Got the mind Martin Luther, but the heart like Malcom X
This that ish their seen
They didn't wanna believe
They compromise their souls, but I'm the realist I've ever been
The greatest leaders serve, but I be serving as I lead
This is God's plan, what will be will be

My councillor said I should love myself but I ain't mad myself
To be honest I'm proud of myself
I just wish my dad was as well
I'm a man of faith so I stay positive and handle myself
But I'll be lying God of sometimes I don't feel to strangle myself, but I breathe
I'm in my thoughts I probably go and tweet again
I've come along from that angry kid from Edenham
Keep your opinions, I was a fool to think I needed them
I hide plain sight, then disappear like it's just me again

Uh huh, I'm transitioning
I had to build my own box, I wasn't fitting in
Its not about how hard you push, its about positioning
God taught me that long time ago, I wasn't listening
I had to let go of the lies, I was ignorant
I started singing out my soul, they started gimmicking
Caterpillar in the mud, I started growing up
Flew up to heaven, now your all here to witness it

Change is painful
But nothing is as painful
Than being stuck somewhere you don't belong

I know where there's shade there's light
And where there's pain there's life
I know where there's shade there's light
Where there's pain there's life
I know where there's shade there's light
Where there's pain there's life
I know where there's shade there's light
I know where there's shade there's light
I know where there's shade there's light
Where there's pain there's life
I know where there's shade there's light
Where there's pain there's life
Yeah yeah
