Never Too Gone

Yeah, NeonViperX

Council born, but never too gone

I'm never too gone, never too far

From the block to the booth, I remember who we are

Still broke, still scarred, still dreamin' large

Council kid forever, but I'm reachin' for the stars

I'm never too gone, never too far

From the block to the booth, I remember who we are

Still broke, still scarred, still dreamin' large

Council kid forever, but I'm reachin' for the stars

Council flat ceilings leakin' on my bed

Mum stressed out, bills stackin' in her head

Dad fucked off, mates lost or dead

So I write my rage down, ink bleeds instead

Jobs don't pay, just minimum lies

Boss on my back while the rent multiplies

Still I clock in, still I swallow my pride

But I dream in the night, where the pain can't hide

I've seen lads turn ghosts by the time they're twenty

Dreams cut short, lines burned on empty

So I spit every verse like the reaper sent me

And I fight through the dark 'cause the block still tempts me

I'm never too gone, never too far

I'm never too gone, never too far

I'm never too gone, never too far

I'm never too gone, never too far

Every bus ride cold, every dream feels fake

Still I chase with a biro, scribblin' my fate

I ain't tryna flex cars or chains on my plate

I just want my fam fed, stress off their face

I've been called waste, been called a joke

Still lit fires with the words I spoke

When the world said quit, I just lit that smoke

And I rose through the ashes every time I broke

From Hackney to Leeds, we all know that pain

Trains late, rain constant, life feels the same

But I swear on my pen, I'll break that chain

Never too gone, mate, remember my name

I'm never too gone, never too far

From the block to the booth, I remember who we are

Still broke, still scarred, still dreamin' large

Council kid forever, but I'm reachin' for the stars
