Penthouse
See, I was living like a tramp, I had no food and no cash
Brought a good amount in don't wanna bring broke back
I was 18, living off baked beans
Always had the same jeans never had my own graft
Now I got my own flat, now I got my own path
Now I got my own bed, now I got my own bath
Man, I swear I was hurting, that's a known fact
Picked myself up and now I know I'll never go back
Started off moving at my mum's house, we were feeding rundown
Guess I probably should be moving on now
Moved a couple miles back to my hometown
Working part-time, also living in a post house
But it really didn't matter, doing overtime
Every time I earned more, the rent would always override
I remember when I couldn't even rent out
Now I won't stop until we're living in a penthouse
Yeah, we'll be living in a penthouse
Man, I swear we'll be living in a penthouse
Yeah, we gon' do it in a penthouse
Man, I swear, yeah
I remember being 20
With the baby on the way never really had a penny
Trying to put away my coins but I never had many
Trying to find myself a place but they never had any
Man, I swear I was feeling like the worst dad ever
Never wanted them thinking everybody had better
So I knew I had to make a real change
Put my fears on the line, get myself on the stage
And that's when I made some paper
Got myself going, got a flat game changer
Spent the next week trying to decorate it all
And my daughter came home only three days later
I gotta thank everybody in my corner
But I ain't stopping here, I'ma carry this order
Cause I remember when I couldn't even rent out
Now I won't stop until we're living in a penthouse, yeah
Man, I swear we'll be living in a penthouse
Yeah, we gon' do it in a penthouse
And we gon' party in the penthouse
Yeah,
Man I gotta be grateful
Every time I eat I got food on the table
I remember when I never really ate
Now I always find myself with too much on my plate
I ain't rich but I'm better than I was back then
I didn't really know who I was back then
I remember when I couldn't even rent out
Now I swear I ain't stopping till we're living in a penthouse
Brought a good amount in don't wanna bring broke back
I was 18, living off baked beans
Always had the same jeans never had my own graft
Now I got my own flat, now I got my own path
Now I got my own bed, now I got my own bath
Man, I swear I was hurting, that's a known fact
Picked myself up and now I know I'll never go back
Started off moving at my mum's house, we were feeding rundown
