[00:09.50]When I was sky high not many of you wanted to see me fall
[00:12.40]I had one big ego, but I was mentally small
[00:14.90]I thought I was the man, telling everybody what to do
[00:17.30]When really they were just using me including my skrilla too
[00:20.10]So look who's laughing now because it definitely ain't me
[00:22.50]Due to all my fuckery my agent had to lower my fee
[00:25.00]With all the money I owe out, I could own me another key
[00:27.50]Instead I sold the house I lived in 'cause I was working for free
[00:29.90]My friends were looking at me for help when I couldn't help myself
[00:32.50]And labelled me a no one when the label put me on it's shelf
[00:35.20]I weren't eating properly and they could see I wasn't well
[00:37.60]Still all they seemed to care about was my wealth
[00:39.50]Fuck my health
[00:40.10]See the Tinnitus thing I have, has always put me through hell
[00:42.60]Too busy looking out for others and not thinking about myself
[00:45.10]I'm rich and paranoid, who else is tryna' fuck with my girl?
[00:47.70]Who else is making up lies for another story to sell?
[00:50.30]Yo, my BM sold like two stories on me for like 30K
[00:53.00]My TM was doing dirty on me like almost every day
[00:55.50]Right under my nose, I would have never have known
[00:57.70]So thank fuck that I'm paranoid and I went through his phone
[01:00.10]Fuck I see a text to his wife
[01:01.60]They nearly ruined my life
[01:02.80]Thinking how's all this information getting printed overnight?
[01:05.50]No lie, no lie
[01:06.70]I know it's in black and white
[01:08.00]And even though it's in The Times it's still a big bag of shite!
[01:10.50]I blame myself for being ignorant and opening up
[01:13.00]But when you're stuck in this industry, you don't know who to trust
[01:15.30]I'm screaming where is the love?
[01:16.70]'Cause on the flip side, on my kid's life
[01:18.80]In the streets I would've opened you up
[01:20.50]Just like that, Mumma we ain't going out like that
[01:23.10]One day I'ma catch him outside ah, how 'bout dat?
[01:25.60]You know like that
[01:26.50]When Pops used to preach I should've listened
[01:28.00]Now I bet he's up there grinning just 'cause I tried fight back
[01:30.60]I remember the times I used to steal bare weed from your pouch
[01:33.20]And pocket any loose change you left lying around the house
[01:35.70]I'd do anything to spend a couple seconds with him alive
[01:38.10]Instead I'm just left with a memory of him dead on the couch
[01:40.60]Forever putting pieces together tryna' figure shit out
[01:43.10]Imagine I was more than puzzled, having to give you mouth to mouth
[01:45.80]My lord there was dry blood all down your face
[01:48.30]I will never forget the taste, tryna' save the man of the house
[01:51.10]They say 'home is where the heart is'
[01:52.20]Well my one was on the market
[01:53.50]Mum's got her own key but she prefers it where we started
[01:56.00]Queen of the hood, reminiscing must feel good
[01:58.50]Couldn't afford to buy me trainers now she's cleaning up my books
[02:01.00]When she's cleaning up the flat
[02:02.50]She be polishing the plaques
[02:03.40]She ain't worried about no bailiffs now her baby's paying tax
[02:05.90]When the press are talking trash, know that it ain't facts
[02:08.50]Why would I smash my own gaff up when my yout's are in the back
[02:11.10]I'd be mad if I sat here tryna' justify every article
[02:13.90]I've already been chewed up and spat out into little particles
[02:16.40]Even though I'm sensitive and a softy at heart
[02:18.50]All I hear is 'rip them apart 'cause there ain't nobody as hard as you'
[02:21.50]Easily antagonised, when I hear a bag of lies
[02:23.90]Everyone's got a past, only difference is mine's glamorised
[02:26.40]Talk about being terrorised, like say I'm gonna fall back
[02:28.90]Your favourite artist now started out as my support act
[02:31.40]The scene was way needier, way before social media
[02:34.00]When we used to turn to radio just to make our lives easier
[02:36.60]Check my Wikipedia
[02:37.80]I sold out bare arenas yo
[02:39.10]They tried to brand me urban
[02:40.30]So I climbed outta the pigeon hole
[02:41.80]I kicked down the door and left it open for the rest
[02:44.00]I went platinum three times, so how am I still in debt?
[02:46.30]700K on the first, 500 on the next
[02:48.90]When you sign a shitty deal fam
[02:50...........
