God Bless Mary |
All I could think about in my maths class was |
Rhyming and figuring out my timing |
Couldn’t get me to shut up if you didn’t hear me, I’m miming |
Teachers didn’t understand the unique world that I’m in |
While you was finding the answers, it’s instrumentals I’m finding |
I know, I should’ve paid attention more |
Still got to where I am, I wouldn’t change my life for yours |
Soon as I got my first paycheck man I wanted some more |
And then I got my second fuck it, it’s music galore |
I invested in equipment, fuck it, I’m takin' it all |
Do this shit myself, but now there’s Mary next door |
I know for a fact this just might be a problem |
Cause when I turn those speakers up there ain’t no one to stop me |
So in love with the sound, it probably messed with my hearing |
When I recorded this like I needed Mary to hear it |
Come to think of it, she’s heard everything before the world has |
Heard the EPs way before the world has |
Heard me singing live way before the world has |
Heard my mistakes and frustration way before the world has |
I know I should turn it down, couldn’t resist |
Saw her smoking fags out the window, I knew she was pissed |
Shit, I didn’t consider that she prolly couldn’t sleep |
I know that it’s selfish, at the time I couldn’t see |
Nothing’s really changed though, man, I’ve been real |
But I never said sorry and this is my apology |
God bless Mary (sorry) |
I know it don’t do shit for you if I go global |
But through these walls, I know you hear my vocal |
And I know you don’t need nothing from me |
No you don’t need nothing from me |
No you don’t need nothing from me, from me |
You could’ve called the council on me so many times |
Could’ve called the police so many times |
Know you was pissed, man, I saw so many signs |
Wanted to speak to you but thought 'never mind' |
You smiling at me like it’s alright |
But I should’ve known that it’s not alright |
I’ma turn it down to consider your night |
But let me turn it up for me one more time |
One more time, please can you bear with me |
I’m just tryna make music to change my life |
No, you don’t owe me anything cos I |
Know you put up with everything onsite |
Prolly hear this playing from your bedroom on repeat |
Wrote a song about my neighbour as you will conceive |
Though nothing’s really changed, though man I’ll be real |
But I never said sorry and this is my apology |
So god bless Mary! |
Yo, now this shit started from my bedroom many moons ago |
God how am I gonna make this work? |
I bet you will know |
Need your love and guidance to take me to where I wanna go |
Wish upon a star, same star that followed me home |
Learning to be more patient than ever, know my time will come |
Will have more time on my hands when the record’s done |
Put in so much work, I hardly got to see my mum |
Hardly got to see my nephew and live and be 21 |
Still I know I’ll make it, some day |
Know that I’m not perfect but I swear that it’ll be worth it |
Mary know that I’ma make it, one day |
You just gotta trust me but know I’m not in a hurry |
Promise I will make it big, some day |
I’ll make it big, some day |
I don’t know your full story or what you’ve been through |
I just wanna say thank you and god bless you |
God bless Mary |
