Lyrics

[Verse 1]
New flow, ay, yeah
Baby Skye, come and give your dad a dance
'Cause you love me for my future, not my shattered past
And you trust me with your future, I'm a man at last
So if I ever break a promise or it seems that I'm dishonest
You can clap me in the forest in your camouflage, I'm playin'
Daddy's always playin' like every day it's rainin'
My son Skye on a cloudy day, keep reignin'
Didn't nobody say this shit would be smooth sailin'
Lately I've been in a mood
It's like every day I hit the juice
Then listen to another million tunes
And hear how the Feds are still killin' yutes
It's funny how the bigger picture always gets the little views
Imagine if a senior really tried to kill the kid in you
Tried to put the lid on you
Tried to stop the water that was flowing through your physical
Man, I hope these critics eat their words till they're critical
My first plan was just to make my first grand
Now the rasta man want see my first grand
Child, I can hold it, I can teach it words and
And every weekend I'll take the fam to Kervans
I'm 32, only thing I'm missin' is a wife
I'm a workaholic, all I'm missin' is the time
I just want the qualities my mum brought to my life
I want that old-fashioned woman with that new-fashioned type
That's nice
[Verse 2]
Yeah, let's go
Keep it real with all those who keep it real
Yeah, I don't give a fuck, at least it's real
Free Adidas without an Adidas deal
All down to my aura, I just wanna know how Rita feel
Can't lie, I never saw what we're becoming comin'
Just the other day, the exit looked so welcomin'
They want it for free until you wanna sell something
That's why I look up to 3', 'cause he went on to sell something
Mandem gotta be great, good enough is good for nothing
Had bare girls, never fell in love, I stood for something
This is their world, I know it never was, I wish it wasn't
Ironic how we needed machines to push the button
Now we got technology
I'ma get a rap verse in an anthology
I'ma be the one they wanna be, I won't call them wannabes
If I wasn't me, I'm the one I'd wanna be
'Cause they got deadlines, I'll come through in time
Meanwhile, I'm rappin' 'bout emotions I ain't been through in time
In my yard where family members ain't come though in time
So I just lock myself away like I was doin' time, yeah
I know you felt 'em, I got bars all day
I wish I was around in F64 days
What I'd do in a day'd take you 64 days
Had Mega Drive back in N64 days
[Verse 3]
Open conversation with brothers who used to bang out
And we agree on all ways to get the gang ou
Normal travel at my shows can bring the fam out
These rappers claim their circle's tight, I'd rather stand out
I was born for this ting, my six words, I'm Wretch
Went and made my own av, I'm no longer on the bench
Attitude poor, I dress nice to cover up the stench
I'm just a vision of these places that I went
Gettin' pounds for my pence, was taught to stand tall
I never sat on no fence, and when the sign said no ball games
I hid eighths in the door frames
'Cause I was fed up of the poor games
And mummy smile when she see me on the TV now
But I'm just an IC3, wow
Got stopped the other day on the mains by some Feds dressed plain
And somebody drove past playin' my CD loud
You wanna see 'em right now, I'm kind of feelin'
Wanted to hold me down, but I don't want no ceilings
They're tryna find a meaning, I'm just tryna find a reason
Nowadays I love my own company, it's just the season
I said, "I really want some kids"
She said, "You're still actin' like a kid"
But I just wanna feel alive
'Cause now these kids are killing kids
