Never cared about being immortalised
How can I stand with the opps and not with the tribe?
They sell you a dream and they want you to glorifyGot a rude awakenin′, by ignorin', I pull the signs
Why did I give you the keys to authorize shit on my behalf?
Now, I′m scarred and mortified
What did I expect from those livin' the corporate life?
Unfortunately, honesty isn't normalised
Had to get my shit together and get organised
If your hand′s in my pockets, I′m calling up all the guys
Though, I don't wanna be the reason of more divide
Guess that′s in my nature of being a water sign
I'm sorta like, nothing is making sense in my awkward mind
Give me your ears, and let me feel the night
Shooting in the dark, guess I never saw the light
Revoke access, I′m running it back, yes
Missing opportunities, I wish I was that pressed
Yeah, I say that shit with my damn chest
You need me and you feel the loss of my absence
The novelty wears off after a few years
After a few tears from challenging new fears
Learning everything I didn't on the come up
We was too busy making music ′till the sun up
Everyday through the summer
Didn't learn the business, and now I'm ducking for cover
What a fuck up
Might just leave a bad taste thinking I′m a sucker
Come up out my damn face, nigga, did I stutter?
It gon′ be a sad case if you see my brothers
I can see how an artist can get tainted, frustrated
They don't care if your mental is on the brink of something dark
As long as your cutting somebody′s payslip
And sending their kids to private school in a spaceship
Yeah, I refuse to be on a slave ship
Give me all my masters and lower your wages
Huh, what I'm bringing to the table is more
Than the feast for the belly of the beast
Didn′t know I'm dropping something heavy for the streets
Fuck the politics, I′m going Meghan on you neeks
I need the best seats in the house
When the truth unfolds, it's gonna be one hell of a scene
Harry listening from Heaven on repeat
He was backing it when nobody believed
"Play the game, play the game," is what they scream
You can play the game, I don't see the need, no
Feel so alive, I woke up and I prayed for a sign
I know, good things take time
God sent me you as an Angel
When your alone, the little thoughts that nobody knows
Hardest thing to do was stay strong
I knew I needed an Angel
My Saturn return in effect
Life doesn′t come with pre-sets
My frequency seamless
They want you give more, expect you dream less
Got me confessing all my secrets
You ain′t the only one under deep stress
Please, don't take my kindness for a weakness
Get G checked for your disrespect
Perception and observation is clinical
More headspace, I′ve been shaving off my occipital
They say, "You can hate who you don't love"
And they say, "Love is unconditional"
I ready to do the unthinkable
Fuck rules and everything that′s traditional
Giving your heart to someone
Might just, leave you in a, something something
Feel so alive, I woke up and I prayed for a sign
I know, good things take time
God sent me you as an Angel
When you're alone, the little thoughts nobody knows
Hardest thing to do was stay strong
I knew I needed an Angel, an Angel
How you go against the same system you was colonised by?
Brudda, your whole ting compromised
Having these conversations with self, and nobody else
Thinking they don′t understand my thinking when I socialise
I need an Angel with me for armour
I need accountability, partner
I know that all these blessings are karma
I need a fire lit by the seaside
Purest manuka up in my beehive
Give me a second, and let the beat ride
Is there a golden key to the sweet life?
I don't know what's gotten into me
But, at least I′m making time for self
And not others when I got free time
New woman, don′t tell me I shouldn't just because you couldn′t
They say, "Don't you give up too much of the truth to ′em"
Well, I got nine more songs in the boot for 'em
Figured this is the moment, I gotta speak now
Head high, back straight, feet down
Posture going crazy
Had to stand tall while they were trying to break me
Fuck that, you niggas didn′t make me
And, I say you will never infiltrate me
Dim my light? Are you crazy?
Yo, we two worlds apart, you know, lady, lady, lady
Flo and I coming like DeNiro with Scorsese
Stop trying to box me, and there's no way you can place me
Hit 'em with a classic then I got a little lazy
Had to get the pen when I remembered that I′m JAY-Z
Had to cut you off because I found out you are snakey
I got Angels guiding my steps, guarding my life from now until death
Perspective is everything and I wonder what they see
Hurt people, hurt people, I get it, but, don′t pay me
My Saturn return in effect
Life doesn't come with pre-sets
My frequency seamless
So, please don′t take my kindness for a weakness
Cos I got Angels
