Holdin' on tryna be somebody
|
But it won’t be long before you need somebody
|
Holdin' on tryna be somebody
|
But it won’t be long before you need somebody
|
Excuse me my friend, forgot that you were standing there
|
Excuse me my friend, I don’t remember who I am
|
All I know is I was reaching for the stars
|
Let go everyone I had it from the start, start, woah, woah
|
Forgiveness, asking for forgiveness, hey, hey, hey
|
Forgiveness, asking for forgiveness, hey, hey, hey
|
Feel like I’m slackin' with my children
|
Focusing on rap tryna pack and shake the building
|
In a race with my own race, just to raise the roof
|
And I ain’t talking 'bout the ceiling
|
Here’s something to believe in:
|
No sleep, cause you’re livin' what you’re dreamin'
|
And it’s the lesson in itself
|
How my son can call me dad when I miss the parents evenings
|
Amazed I’m still breathin';
|
Every other shot I feel my insides bleedin'
|
Grandad, turnin' in his grave
|
Cause I promised that I’ll be there for my gran when she’s grievin'
|
I used to be a man of my word;
|
Now, time seems to have got the best of my sentence
|
In that case I’ll have to adjourn
|
Cause the thought of an excuse is just as bad as the intention
|
Excuse me, my friend
|
I think I might’ve hit my head
|
Excuse me, my friend
|
I don’t remember who I am
|
Cause I’m holdin' on tryna be somebody
|
But it won’t be long before I need somebody
|
Forgiveness, asking for forgiveness (hey, hey, hey, hey)
|
Went to church to pray for a top ten
|
Then I went number 5, I ain’t been back again
|
But when my jewellery friend phones
|
Like they got new rings I’ll most likely attend
|
Hoppin' out a new benz, start the car from outside
|
When is this gonna end?
|
My mum’s still livin' in the ends
|
Spent jibs on tha wrist before I put her with celebs
|
I’m still livin' like a wretch
|
All I hear is fuck, fuck
|
All the girls have got tourettes
|
And no I don’t wanna bet
|
Even the odd bird wanna take me to the nest
|
I swear I only came for the music, but the more I touch notes
|
It’s like the more I get stupid
|
It’s a gift and a curse, but before I blame myself
|
I’m a say it’s what the tune did
|
My show’s home, go go this is my entrance
|
I raise the bar, pole vault, it’s rap athletics
|
A famous star, on his own, counting blessings
|
A loner: no one phones, I get the message |
