I used to take that 177 from Deptford down to Peckham
Them days, the buses started bending like Beckham
I was so broke, I was stressing
Told me you could give me a pound, cuz, I'll link you in a second
Dreams of me driving in a Beamer
So when I got my first drop-top, was like "finally, I'm here"
Driving up and down, trying to impress
Any pretty girl with a bag, "excuse me, that's a nice dress"
Struggle, that's taught me how to hustle
I was so skinny back then, fam, I didn't have the muscle
But I had the heart of a lion
And I heard God loves a trier, so me, I was trying
Everybody knows up and down on them back roads
If I get pulled, yeah you know how that goes
Trying to come home with a fat load
Just tryna pay the school fees, I weren't tryna be El Chapo
Always wanted more for myself
I was tryna be great, it was more than just wealth
I had a bunch of goods that the streets couldn't sell
I knew I had to get this talent seen by the world
Fam, I put in that work
I was trying every day, cuz, I grew it from the dirt
Love my brother so much, would've given him my shirt
He said I wouldn't blow, man, that shit still hurts
Guess he didn't see my worth
It was like 10 steps forward and 20 steps back
That's just how it goes on the road
I used to have to drive past my house when I was going home
Street life, that's how it goes
Them man there were plotting on me when I only showed love
Rudeboy, what you wanna know?
I had the same time as them, the only difference was I used it well
Now it's 7 figures for a story, that's a super sale
Trust me, I was telling man that I was on a different plan
Said I was delusional but they just didn't understand
I had dreams of movie scenes, television, magazines
Lost a little focus, probably just made me chase the cream
But it wasn't long before I got back on track, no
And I ain't talking music when I say I had to rap, no
Trust me, when that shot came, try know I took that
