Never Too Late
[Intro: Guvna B]
(Allo Mate) (It's)
[Verse 1: Guvna B]
Yo, I'm sitting in my room thinking "Ain't God great?"
Like, where's the man that can relate?
From estate to the States and it's all by grace
Don't watch my face and it's all by faith
And there's
Man on road with a tool by waist
But
Man like me leave the tool at base
That double-edged sword is all I take
Put faith in the page, it's mad, trust me
Tell a demon "Duck down" every time I touch down
It's a must now, I ain't rampin' no more
My boy from ends said he got some deeds and I told man "I ain't bankin' no more"
Cah there's more to life, you're like 45
You won't be the man, but what for?
Man that are Pd-up without Je-sus?
But still, he was gonna want more
That was me for a little piece still
It didn't give me a little piece till
I saw a guy that was rich an' he had everything, jumped high off a bridge an' I thought is this it like "Really?"
These days I'm careful who I let near me
Then I get Jesus move what beat I was like
And yet still I pray to speak clearly, hear me out
Man I go from show to show
An' a brudda speaks life to the broken souls
'Cause everybody's out on the open road
Before you make a wrong turn, better slow your roll
Some man are on drugs and they overdose
In my postcode bare man know the road
It's low, I'm still going toe to toe
With the man upstairs
I'm tryna go for gold
[Chorus: Guvna B]
Lord
I can't do it on my own (On my own)
I've lost my way (I've lost my way)
But it's never too late (But it's never too late)
Never too late (Never too late)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
Don't care what they say (Care what they say)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
An' now I'm like
Lord (I'm like Lord)
Come save my bros (Save my bros)
We've lost our way (We've lost our way)
But it's never too late (But it's never too late)
Never too late (Never too late)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
Don't care what they say (Care what they say)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
[Verse 2: Guvna B]
8 years an' counting
I been with the doubters
I met an old friend from school and she said "I never would've guessed it
You've grown up an' look at all the blessings
In school, it was always a detention
It's a wonder you never got arrested."
I told her "Ain't God great?"
I turned it around, hit the brakes
An' I'm giving all the glory to God 'cause it
Coulda been a different story
Couple chicks, couple figures coulda got me up in 'moory
But the road ain't calm, it's stormy
So when they saw me it was emotional
A lil boy from the estate
A few man shot in the chestplate
But he made it out with no x-ray
An' he changed the game, he's like checkmate
Game over
You think you're bad 'cause you run a Range Rover?
But that whip you got can't save your soul, it might look the part, it can't pay the toll
'Cause only one did it
Payed the price an' he won with it
An' so did you if you want to
Grab that truth when I got to
Take that step, they're like "Nah"
They don't want it when I get that
'Cause you've had a couple setbacks
An' it feels like guys don't get that
An' you're trying to run but you get that
That was me for a sec, fam
Now I'm like
[Chorus: Guvna B]
Lord
I can't do it on my own (On my own)
I've lost my way (I've lost my way)
But it's never too late (But it's never too late)
Never too late (Never too late)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
Don't care what they say (Care what they say)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
An' now I'm like
Lord (I'm like Lord)
Come save my bros (Save my bros)
We've lost our way (We've lost our way)
But it's never too late (But it's never too late)
Never too late (Never too late)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
Don't care what they say (Care what they say)
It's never too late
[Verse 3: Favour and Guvna B]
Fam (Never too late)
If I'm talking honestly
I can't say that I've ever met a mad man as odd as me
I'm an oddity
The anomaly
Probably 'cause I wanna be unique
's why I don't act logically
My life's gotta be an example to the Oxford for how they define hypocrisy
Like I say people should do one thing, but that thing's not for me
Guv says I'm just real like that
But I don't really feel like that
I feel like a real life crap
I feel like I real life flat
6 feet under
Wonder you won't feel my chat
Then when I hang about, hubba, can't hang about
Make moves, yeah I gotta make a mill' like that
Build my stacks, so focused on the Ps
That I forget all about real life, fam
Like
I don't wanna admit this
Mum was in hospital getting stitches
An' I was tryna make calls for my business, trust me, Ez is my witness
My values are so messed up that I don't think God can forgive this
I wanna change but the risk is
If I slow down, got off so now
I might come off the hinges
An' so I zone out
Tryna hold down what I can
But I know now cause I grown man
That a band that I once had to take my Mum to another land
For now, dissolved, for another life
Brother, I cannot believe what's become of I
Have to stop or die
Been walkin' with poverty as well
Tryna do this alone's
Got me accident-prone
An' it's clear that I don't know how
[Chorus: Guvna B]
Lord
I can't do it on my own (On my own)
I've lost my way (I've lost my way)
But it's never too late (But it's never too late)
Never too late (Never too late)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
Don't care what they say (Care what they say)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
An' now I'm like
Lord (I'm like Lord)
Come save my bros (Save my bros)
We've lost our way (We've lost our way)
But it's never too late (But it's never too late)
Never too late (Never too late)
It's never too late (It's never too late)
Don't care what they say (Care what they say)
It's never too late
