I was just a teen a boy with a dream
In love with the flow with a sight on the scene
Not many know what it′s like to be seenBut I'm getting to know now
To know now
Just a teen
Lil black boy with a dream
With the craziest mind and the lowest esteem
Trying to find what happens at the highest esteem
So I had a dream and a couple called me extreme
I was thinking about what could make me better
Cos these terms at school never made me clever
Too cool a fool to retain that error
I was tryna be great they were telling me never so
So I got a craft
Put the work in it
A couple had a laugh when they saw me working it
And I was trash at the start and I stunk like a fart
But the heart in my work had me murking it
Now it′s 5 years gone I've been doing it strong
Working night til dawn and they're singing my song
Nobody telling me I′m doing it wrong
Cos I was telling them that really
I′m just a teen a boy with a dream
In love with the flow with a sight on the scene
Not many know what it's like to be seen
But I′m getting to know now
To know now
Just a teen a lil black bruddah with a dream
That's faced and placed in a diabolic regime
That made it seem like I was never part of the team
But I was David never let it ruin the dream
Cos I was hitting up a giant that was bigger than most
It′s bigger than me
They couldn't see the hell of a ghost that′s living in me
Cos I was just the relevant host
To a degree you could say I was better than most
Cos I
Kept on working
Put the time in
Though they hate see I kept on shining
Now the flows dividing
Ultra sounding
And I will never stop trying I'm tightening
Until the flow get them shocked like lightening
And make the smile on their face excitement
See I was told that's my one assignment
So now I′m telling that really
I′m just a teen a boy with a dream
In love with the flow with a sight on the scene
Not many know what it's like to be seen
But I′m getting to know now
To know now
I'm just a teen
Started at 16
With a dream so big
No self esteem
He′s just a teen
Started at 16
He won't make it but I want to watch him though
I′m just a teen and now I'm getting bigger than ever
I'm better and better and ready to take on whatever
The people throw cos it took 5 years of pressure
And there were ties to sever
So many lines to better
And I know imma get this grow
To a place where the people know
That my words don′t play
And until that day
Imma rap this way
Practice so they see a mad display
Of a teen they claimed never rapped this way
And it was true but I dreamt I may
Be the best and the rest in the words I prayed
I said that...
I′m just a teen
Started at 16
With a dream so big
No self esteem
I'm just a teen a boy with a dream
In love with the flow with a sight on the scene
Not many know what it′s like to be seen
But I'm getting to know now
To know now
Just a teen
