They say that you ain't reaching goals,
'cause you ain't thinking straight.
I tell 'em that I'm getting my degree, I'ma be on TV,
I don't really care, mate.
I'm here and I'm sitting on my thrown,
I'ma let it be known that I'm here to stay.
And I hope that you're by my side,
rather than try getting in my way.
I won't push you, I don't dictate,
you can make your own mistakes.
I'ma be what I can in the life that I live,
know that I'm living by the 4 Ps..
Try get that, clear your mind,
love life, redefined.
And I'm tryna be the best that I can,
so my name's in the stars, and I'm back with a bang!
(Chorus)
You came here, you broke me down.
But I never fell, no. I'm here, no stopping now.
You came here,you tried to break me down.
You failed there..
Bright lights, I'm right, my fight, no hype,
man, you ain't breaking me now.
(Verse Two)
I think it's time for the scene to distinguish,
real talent, real music, fakeness.
Not doing it for money or the nametag,
an articulate beast, proper English.
If you witness, the rain pouring,
out in London, World War-ing.
In Luton, just pollution,
Just the trouble that made us useless.
Forget grey skies, forget rain,
forget bad times, forget fame.
Let's try fight using our heads,
Intelligence, instead!
I'ma live my life to the fullest and I,
swear to God I'ma stop all the bullshit.
No trouble, no fighting the airwaves..
I'ma be flying high, like the airplanes.
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Passion, Peace, Positivity and Patience are my ethos,
my mental state of mind, inside, I am inside my weak spot.
I'll take the negatives, chuck 'em out and keep it clear.
So know I'm here and nothing's stoppin', I won't disappear
(Chorus 'til end)
