[Intro]
I remember playing streets for change
Yeah that's it yeah
[Chorus]
I remember playing streets for change
I remember back in school yeah you said you'd never change
Now when I see their face they're not the same (not the same)
I ain't seen my day ones in maybe a few days
Fuck em I don't need them anyway (no)
I used to work a wage now I'm tearing down the stage
I don't do this for the money or the fame (no)
I do it coz I love it and I'm never gonna change
[Verse 1]
And It's funny how they like me just for me (just for me)
Yeah I'm feeling like a Martin Luther I just got this dream
I'm the youngest n***a next up on the scene (on the scene)
I been cruising through my city and this song is the theme
If you see the old school merc you know it's me (know it's me)
I just gave my mum a buzz told her that I'm on tv
Yeah the only thing I need is self belief (self belief)
I don't need to pay the team coz they believe the dream
I do this shit just for the kicks
I started off playing the licks
I'm rapping and playing the riffs
I played every stage in the six
I made every beat on the mix (mix)
All I can make is a hit (hit)
I heard your new track and it's shit (shit)
I question if you are legit
Fuck a mixtape this a hit tape
I don't see work them like a sick day
Everybody looking for the quick way
Keep my fam close like I'm Kim K
I didn't get put on by radio (radio)
Come up organic like paleo (paleo)
Putting work in like it's daily though (daily)
I just ascend like arpeggios
I only wear my own shirts
Only rock my own merch
Fuck Triple J Unearthed (fuck em)
Probably won't hear this verse ah
All I need is the young team
They asleep I like to dream
I'm that that new kid on the scene
Hello it's so nice to meet
[Chorus]
I remember playing streets for change (change)
I remember back in school yeah you said you'd never change
Now when I see their face they're not the same (not the same)
I ain't seen my day ones in maybe a few days
Fuck em I don't need them anyway (no)
I used to work a wage now I'm tearing down the stage
I don't do this for the money or the fame (no)
I do it coz I love it and I'm never gonna change
[Verse 2]
I wasn't ready last summer (summer)
I remember doing runners (runners)
I remember playing covers (covers)
I remember they ain't love us
Yeah scroll down you can see the come up
Played my whole city fuck the club up
I just went and put my sum up
I been making beats till the sun up
I wasn't comfortable in my own skin
Called up my boy like you ready to win
Have a spare room do you wanna move in
He like hell yeah and now we all in
Half white half black call me zebra
I'm causing a racket like I'm Serena
I'm stacking the dough like I'm making pizza
I might just go and sell out arenas
I want the facts and they telling me lies
I checked your percents what you pay for your likes
I went to your show and saw you perform live
Lip singing holding holding the mic
Everything you gets all me (all me)
From the melodies to the beats (beats)
I just went and put up my fee
Make what you make in week
Probably sent out ten thousand emails
Probably sent that in Dm's too
Probably sell out ten thousand pre sales
Imma do that in a year or two
Thats manifesting at it's best
Had this on my vision board since ten
Whole team strong because we're friends
Rappers gone because of trends
[Chorus]
I remember playing streets for change (change)
I remember back in school yeah you said you'd never change
Now when I see their face they're not the same (not the same)
I ain't seen my day ones in maybe a few days
Fuck em I don't need them anyway (no)
I used to work a wage now I'm tearing down the stage
I don't do this for the money or the fame (no)
I do it coz I love it and I'm never gonna change
