Options

Yo it's one of two options sit here an play the victim or get up and go
I just can't feel sorry for myself i;m real hustler if u know then u know
What's understood doesn't need explaining fam so lemme just show
One of the coldest to touch the microphone i don't even need to road
Northside baby lifestyle crazy shout ad he's the ceo (ad!)
I'm heading for the stars if no ones rolling with me then i'll go on my own
And they ain't gonna give me no flowers no way not until i've blown
Yes we've all got options but this ain't the life that i chose
If i speak my mind they're like alpha you're going way too mad
If this music ting don't work out i'll have a career change like breaking bad
I'm from a place where tomorrow ain't no guarantee like income tax
They're like how's he been doing music under a year and still got these tracks? (how!)
Told bro forget talking cause talk is cheap let's do action
I told bro your life's gonna change he said thank you i said that Standard.
Right now i'm just warming wait till you hear da anthems (just wait and see)
You think I've got talent (huh!) wait till you hear the mandem (yes!)
Just sent a text to max like what times studio he said 4 (shout max!)
When i step in da booth i do my job when you step in da booth you're not sure
I ain't taking crums like oliver iwist don't want a little bit i want more (please sir!)
I'm all about peace and harmony but if it's war den it's war
Stepped into sgt they're telling me that I'm going on sick
So big up to all of the olders
Paris, nat, sel, tiz, john, max, daniel, liam, ben, abel can't forget vince (no way!)
They were there from the start back when i wrote down my first bars
Gassin' me up telling me that I'm hard
Now i'm looking back thinking i've come far
Now i'm looking back thinking like rah
This boy here could be a star
This boy here he could be famous
See me on tv see me in the papers
This year we outside ask the neighbours
Pray salah one time for my haters (one time!)

I had to tek time when I realised that nothin' even matters
I had to pick up the mic couldn't stand listening to some of these washed up rappers
I could tell you bout times on da block back in da day way back when
I remember for a sec I thought I was bad then I got a g check from Glenn
I ain't here to judge no one man must've thought I was judge judy
All I'm saying is think twice before you see red like ruby
Let me say it again yes we've all got options
I know man that are locked for da mad ting truss me this ain't a game like Compton
Truss me this ain't a game like tennis
Serving mc's with an eviction notice why cause i'm the new tenant
Fed up of all these backhand compliments when really dem man are jealous
But ah suh it guh sometime
Still out here battling on the frontline
They need a million different chances me all i need is one time
To get a breakthrough
Hammer and chisel cutting my way through
Nowadays everyone's got an opinion but don't ever let that sway you
