aight, look!, so much has changed in the last year and i'm still adjusting, i never felt like a fuckboy but when i look back man i must've been, cause me i weren't chasing a dream, i was working the nine-to-five for some pricks and like, they couldn't care about me, i was just another person to give a payslip, that 33.3 percent cycle of work, music and doing road but like, work ain't shit and i can't do road for the rest of my life and i shoulda known because, me and my boy can do grimey shit, and that night he'd be kipping, but it's like my conscience, it would keep me awake, and that's how i know we different, you see look, me, i've been around road yutes, and they love talking 'bout road, and me i've been around trap yutes, and they love talking 'bout trap, and i don't love road like those road yutes, and i can't trap like those trap yutes, ain't no soft shit, i just know who i am, the same way them niggas can't rap like man, but music i know that i do love so look, i'ma go chase me a dream, i'ma give it everything that i got, if it don't work imma do road, it'll be what it be, anyway you know the build-up, so now i drop: 'slut' and get a bit of attention, but i ain't used to

people start changing, i can have a hundred phone calls, but only one conversation, there's only one road to riches, there's only one way to make it, see, everybody fame-chasing but, they didn't wanna trade places with me, and now they wanna trade places with me, but i need this and i breathe this me, yeah this is me, a hundred phone calls but one conversation, aight, that shit might make no sense, 'aight let me explain, now everybody wanna question the kid, and them hugs turn into open hands it's like, ninety-nine phone calls to ask for a favour, one phone call to ask how i am, now everybody wanna put on events and tell me how i can be the hardest, and wow look, out of the blue it's mad look, everybody knows how to manage a artist, they talk to me like i'm a business plan, but i don't

this shit it might not be known to you, but a real artist, giving you his honest story, what man is supposed to do, but that ain't even most reckless 'ting: i be up every night on a restless 'ting, i'm, really tryna get rid of tickets, but they're phoning me like "can you get man in?" oh!, when it's somebody that you know it's a no, but for bryson tiller you be waiting by the phone no-show, see

gassed, you see, i'm overwhelmed and i'm grateful, but i burnt bridges of the wasteful, who would snap girls bringing bottles to the table, but they never bring nothing to the table, they say when you

tryna burn two ways, and now they say i'm not grime man i get it cause don't do shit in a commercial way, and normally if i get nicked i'm like 'calm, just another night in a station', but the last time i got nicked, i was like 'man i'm fucking up man's situation, which i can't do, are you dumb?, only gotta learn once, because if my words can change the world, then why the fuck am i biting my tongue, and i swear if you ask me for a pic, word i won't say no, because i remember being that same yute that you would ask to take the pic on the phone, no shit, now they're saying that a nigga skilled cause i'm talking 'bout shit that's really real, you see look, they're satisfied if they give you a hook, but i'm satisfied when i give a nigga thrills, no chill, this is what i'm talking about, i get passionate when i'm talking about, my life, see, music i need this 'ting, and that feeling in your chest, i'm talking about, so, no, i won't go back to the roads them, getting back to the road, do another wrong shit for the right reason, but for the right reason, man would get cracked on the road, there's no more kitchen knives in the house, big red hair in the back of the coat, grabbing a car and driving past feds, getting that lump in the back of my throat, so no, i ain't going out like that, i know i ain't born that way, so plan a's to be a fucking legend, and plan b is
