WAGYU

I never been a player
I never been a baller
Probably woulda been a model if I was a little taller
Little better lookin'
Or more of a prima donna
But I'd rather be nothing if I couldn't be myself that's being honest
For the longest, man, I thought I wanted bust down Rollies
A woman either arm for keepin' myself cosy
Big room full of people, how could I feel lonely?
Guess I made a lotta friends but not a lot of them know me
I got the cards in my hand close to my chest
See I just do what I can with what I was dealt
I never thanked my Ma for not smackin' me with a belt
Every time that I acted out as a youngfla I was a melt but
I pray I don't ever know how it felt
Four kids under eight when my daddy gave up his health
Late to class in the morning
Cos' Mammy was still in mourning
What's the choice growin' up?
You just have to take care of yourself but
All of my brothers in arms could vouch
They were like Das to me
The times I was tappin' out
I knew I could tag the team
Depression would cast the doubt
They had different plans for me
Success was a scenic route
I thought it was passin' me
A lot of it's guilt
A lot of it's stress
I know a lotta folk with a hell of a lot less
I know that being broke doesn't mean that your life's a mess
And just cos' I'm crackin' a smile
Doesn't mean that I'm not depressed but
This will pass too
In time, it all fades
Lick and stick tattoos
I know they throw shade
How you think I stay cool?
These days I don't bite less the beef is Wagyu
The landlord's tryna get me out the gaff
Flirting with the council worker like I'm tryna smash
I could never settle, I'm not in it for the cash
Better get used to me, I ain't changin' who I am
Cos' I never been a player
I never been a baller
Probably woulda been a model if I was a little taller
Little better lookin'
Or more of a prima donna
But I'd rather be nothing if I couldn't be myself that's being honest

I never been a player
I never been a baller
Probably woulda been a model if I was a little taller
Little better lookin'
Or more of a prima donna
But I'd rather be nothing if I couldn't be myself that's being honest
I never been a player
I never been a baller
Probably woulda been a model if I was a little taller
Little better lookin'
Or more of a prima donna
But I'd rather be nothing if I couldn't be myself that's being honest

That's being honest
That's being honest

-'I tell you what, you be a good boy aye?
If you find a girl you make sure she's a nice one, good to her
Good to respect your family and you...'
