From The Outside |
| I’ve been in the wrong system, the wrong territory, for way too long |
| If I say it’s right and I show it to Johnny, looks back at me like it sounds |
| wrong |
| Who am I making music for then? |
| Ask him, me, the label or him? |
| I don’t like showin people eediat tunes cause really Wiley goes in |
| I’m torn between catering for me and the fans, I’m going mad |
| I only hear my big hits where people go to get tans, beach |
| What’s sad to me is they want easy, I can’t show skills |
| For the wayward music they want brother, I don’t want mils |
| I step back looking in from the outside |
| Wondering if it sounds right |
| Sounds good to me |
| On this path it’s good to be |
| Yeah, you could do the hook for me |
| Or I could do the hook for free |
| Got a rave booked at 1 |
| Leave a hour gap then I’m booked til three |
| Where do I start with this one |
| I was on the outside trying to get inside |
| With the tools outside I got inside |
| In a matter of time I was doing a lot |
| Might see me with a lighty on the block |
| Wiley told me to murk this |
| So I gotta make this worth it |
| When I spit, spit to kill, not only Fruity Loops that I kill |
| I’m a lord of the beats fam |
| Check YouTube, every man knows that it got real |
| Five bills for a grime beat, that’s real |
| Had a man scared and shook like I just got signed and dropped, let go from the |
| deal |
| I’mma stack till I get mils |
| I step back looking in from the outside |
| Wondering if it sounds right |
| Sounds good to me |
| On this path it’s good to be |
| Yeah, you could do the hook for me |
| Or I could do the hook for free |
| Got a rave booked at 1 |
| Leave a hour gap then I’m booked til three |
| I don’t know who’s approval man’s seeking |
| Or what crowd man’s tryna be reaching |
| Don’t wanna make tunes that are bait |
| I make music for an acquired taste |
| Started doing this thing cause I loved it |
| Not to make tunes for the general public |
| Our music is made to measure |
| Wiley is a national treasure |
| Not everybody is gonna like it |
| If they don’t like it, fuck 'em |
| Man really started from the bottom |
| Walk in to radio, man ain’t forgotten |
| I used to pay £5 a week to get heard |
| Now I get five bags for spoken word |
| Personally I think man’s winning |
| And it’s only the end of the beginning |
| I step back looking in from the outside |
| Wondering if it sounds right |
| Sounds good to me |
| On this path it’s good to be |
| Yeah, you could do the hook for me |
| Or I could do the hook for free |
| Got a rave booked at 1 |
| Leave a hour gap then I’m booked til three |
