I always knew one day I would be ahead of the pack
Yet I still find myself racing against these rats
It's a rat race, it's a game of chess
But the trouble is that even if you
Win the rat race, you're still a rat
And whether or not you win at chess, the
Pawns and the king all go back in the same box
Tsk, fuck, these games, I'm just not used to playing
I love the game, love the job
I know that it's fake, enough man just talk
But I'm used to their shit
I'm too used to their fibs
We stay laughing through days that are rough
Might pour one more cup for now that we up
No new yutes where I live
Nothing's new where I live
Nothing's new where I stay
I moved out my crib
Still getting mum's food on the way just so shit feels the same
So it feels like it did
Munching jij, tryna pick out the bones in the fish
Flashback to the times that
Times that I'm tryna make pound coins fly
Guess it's all part of the grind
And God just dealt with the tide
I pray that I always stay sane
Don't wanna go ruin no image
I cannot ruin the pain
In this game 'til death do us part
Either way, I'm forever alive
My soul and my music gon' stay
Hackney my place, London my place, the world in my plate
From young, I always wanted to be loved by everyone
'Til I realised everyone can easily find a reason to hate
I wish they knew though, wish they knew the sacrifices
I wish they knew I nearly lost my life
On these same streets that I push today
Fuck off
Listen, you want your people to love you?
You don't find love by finding a perfect person
But by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly
You can't have courage if you don't have fear
And some people get called brave '
Cause they were too scared to run away
But just decide that you want it more than you're afraid of it
And on that note, this is Block Diary
Kenny Allstar
The voice of the street
I love the game, love the job
I know that it's fake, enough man just talk
But I'm used to their shit
I'm too used to their fibs
We stay laughing through days that are rough
Might pour one more cup for now that we up
No new yutes where I live
Nothing's new where I live
