11th of May

For life's battles, I'ma go for the bat like Sammy Sosa

You can never cope, tryna build up a utopia

Tryna spread them good words

But these nerds keep coming out the woodwork

That's a minor too

tell me what you tryna do?

You wanna be in charge, be my guest and try on da shoe

Drifta

ML's a man, now he's doing real good

Isla's the little one's bigger sister

I'm looking at these tour dates

Israel missing out on me linking at the school gates

they know I do it gourmet

Meetings on the Zoom and we talking 'bout this puree

We ain't the same, no we definitely ain't

Nah

We make the plays, get the bread and liaise, yeah

we keep on praying, keep the devil away

Yeah

I made my debut, 11th of May

The 11th of May

I've lowered some defenses

I'm mastering my senses

Feeling real good, I'm feeling compos mentis

Been in it from the trenches

How you just gon' deal with me weird?

We was supposed to be billionaires

No accountability there

Feeling claustrophobic, get me some air

I know they're gonna say I'm unfair

You can say what you want

But you can never say, I'm not there

Alright, fuck it, I'm gone

You can never say, I don't share

What the fuck do you want?

I can't give you what is not there

I hate we ain't been speaking for years

But you know what I'm like

I'm not the best at clearing the air

But I hate when we fight

I've just been working on me, taking my time

Let me get this shit working then be right at your side

They don't know nothing, they just see when we flourish

Been alienated, disrespected and punished

I smooth with the objects and the shapes and the colours

And I've got my little ones I need to encourage

Feel like I'm scared to trust

It's like I don't care no more because I cared too much

Hardly got no friends left but you know the play

Nine times out of ten it's gonna go that way

Think about the memories we've thrown away

You know them ways

Back then in the olden days

I got no complaints

Friends been lost

Paid the cost, trust me, I got mental blocks

And it's all for what?

Ain't nobody meeting my needs

I don't need a **** belief

Warned them **** that I would fly

I was just a caterpillar eating a leaf

Nowadays my senses just be smelling deceit

Had to get me some peace

The streets, just a step and repeat

That you'll never complete

A man's just embodied with greed

And we'll never agree

A old **** stuck in the streets

That'll never be me

Biggest goat

You know how much London man I've given hope

If there's someone else that's like me, let me know

Flying over heads, I'm in a UFO

Me, myself and I, I'm on my De La Soul

There's no more energy

Tell them that I'm running low

I got no empathy

I'm like the centrepiece

Got an event this week

Then we on holiday, she's picking up the rental keys

No one can speed up my ting, so ****, let me speak

I'm twenty years in, I'm picking up a mental streak

Nobody fears him, I never even read his tweets

I got an ear for it

Because he blesses me

My Missus there for me

We got the best two seats
