[Bridge:]
Grandma said you could do it son
Mama said you could do it son
Grandma said you could do it son
Mama said you could do it son
[Verse 1:]
I spent so many days workin'
Lost so many friends
But saying names just ain't worth it
If you know me already, you know that I ain't perfect
Either indulging in
Or rolling an 8th burning
Letting the time pass
Contemplating this master plan as I write bars
To have my name inside charts
Not a lot get the opportunities I've been given
Jump on a stage his name playing in front of pricy women
Catch me in the back of a black cab with a light whizzin
And the only time I've been backstabbed is when I'm nice and giving
I let a snake in the circle
That was my decision
Now I'm beheading bitches
Henry the 8th inspired vision
I'm patrolling the galaxy
And they say the sky's the limit
But I see the stars and they're waving at me
I feel highly privileged
Where am I going?
How am I getting through?
I'm on my way now
A few years ago I never knew
Nothing in the fridge
The electric meter was beeping
The radiator was cold so I used a camo for heating
I was reloading the water in Winter so it was steaming
The room looked like a sauna in Woolwich
But still it was freezing
Not to mention
I was making beats
Trapping for a way to eat
Jumping jays ??
Tryna get from A to B
Fans thinking I'm ridiculous
I see 'em losing faith in me
But I flipped it 'round so now they say to me
[Hook:]
We made it to the top
With belief
We were working while all the others would speak
What you know about the pain?
The grief?
Knowing all of your dreams were within your reach
You can do it son
[Bridge:]
[Verse 2:]
They're having issues maintaining the stardom
I spit cold cause my flow's like a lake in the arctic
And this is real and that is fake
You should stay in your margin
They look like they be getting cake
Go and survey their apartment
?? millionaires, that's off of road money
And they ain't investing in no one
They're in no hurry
Currency'll be placed on your head if they're ever owed money
So fuck a chain and a rapper saying he's so gully
Anyone can shoot
Anyone can squeeze
But not everyone can deal with the things that a killer sees
Cause them Omens be haunting him
And that's only in his dreams
You know how cranky a human gets when they ain't had no sleep
That's why brothers pull out weapons
That's all they ever know
In a situation of life and death they're always on their own
I see Demons on these London roads
Squeezing when the gun's exposed
Pieces of a crumbled home
Police come in it's jungle closed
The truth ain't the truth if there's a lie in it
After the top there's only up
I'm tryna buy minutes
From the streets but I made it to chandeliers and nice dinners
But fame is a bitch and don't let you live with a wife innit
Fighting temptation
Knowing her friend is waiting
For the moment she can get me alone for the moment she can get me alone for a sensation
And all of this is happening
But still it ain't enough
Then I visualize living rough
Because...

[Breakdown/Verse 3:]
Momma said you could do it son
Go look in the mirror and see how far that you've come
You have the power to freeze water and move the sun
But if your life was in danger
Just for you I would lose a lung
And that left breathless
Every day I'd be tested
Making worldwide music
But they don't know what my address is
If I ain't in the studio offloading my aggression
Then I'm at the door of a venue
7 friends on the guest list
Please...
So hear me out because I need to contact a major artist
Sitting down playing the music
I'm making them raid the market
These haters searching for skeletons on my name to tarnish
But I'm out of the city
Chilling up in a place in Hartford
Taking in the scenery
Making it's a dream to me
They say I'm close to my goals
But to me I never seem to be
But nothing gives me a reason to stop
I love hearing them people screaming for Dot
Because...
