All the time I spent in prison did it help me out? (nah)
I'm talking to these four walls, what can you tell me now
I'm burning bridges that I build these people think I'm melting down
I've signed a deal to feed my family they say I'm selling out
I've been around the block before I really lived the life (yeah)
The judge gave me five years I really did the time
I'm sick of seeing mumzy crying, tears up in my sisters eyes
My little brother asking why I promise imma make it right
I still miss my brother Jesse and I hope he knows
I used to see his face up in the clouds when I was smoking cones
If you're listening to this just know I love you bro
There's no hard feelings, mum and dad just want you home
All these lyrics that I'm writing they don't ease the pain
I got a couple million views but I don't really need the fame
If I could have a normal life today then I would leave the game
If you want it you can have it that's an easy trade
I don't do the gossip I ain't into talking loud
I had to cut some people off I'm hanging with a smaller crowd
And they know who I am, where I come from what I'm all about
And if we have a problem with each other than we sort it out
And fuck the pipe I ain't trying to puff my life away
I left that in the past I'm walking forward towards a brighter day
Tears falling like the rain and I don't wanna cry again
I hope my ex is doing good I'm really not the type to hate
Every day's a lesson and I'm learning what I can
My mum and dad raised me right and prison turned me to a man
She loves it when I call her Senorita
She's my biggest fan but right now I can't do us
I hope she understands
I miss Shaff I miss Sunny will I see 'em soon?
The only time I ever see my friends is when they're on the news
I miss my brother Betsie I just wanna go to heaven too
I'm praying every night, god tell me what I'm meant to do
I'm waking up in cold sweats when I sleep at night
Cause there's a lot of pain and anguish that I keep inside
It hurts that certain people died and I don't wanna be alive
That's the truth I'm being honest with you I don't need to lie
This rap is more than just a Rolex and a Cuban link
It's supposed to make you feel at home
Just like the house you grew up in
I had a good relationship and then I went and ruined it
She told me that she's done with all the fighting, so she threw it in
I'm a man and I won't hide the fact I've gotta cry
It broke my heart when Davo told me he don't wanna die
He's only 35, and he don't wanna leave his kids behind
Rest in peace I love you bro I think about you all the time
Just know your boys are doing fine
I hope you looking down and smiling from that place up in the sky
I'll be there in a little while
Just know your boys are doing fine
I hope you looking down and smiling from that place up in the sky
I'll be there in a little while
I ain't trying to die young like my mates did
I wanna live a long life with my bro Riv
Cause where we come from no one really makes it
I've got my eyes set up on the prize and I won't quit
When I was young I was bummy I had no cash
I used to rack all my clothes I was broke as
Weighing up buds at Larenzos mums
Back then I was sticking up dealers with my bro Shav
I've come a long way from my house up in Monmouth
Stoned every day blowing out them bong clouds
No doubt I was hanging with the wrong crowd
I went to jail, came home look at what I've got now
New car, old friends, same postcode
And a watch with a crown as its logo
I'm dressed in Givenchy you're looking like a hobo
Flowz Dilione is my name if you don't know
Everybody wanna know what my lifes like
But that's what happens when you're living in the limelight
I've come such a long way since the Price of Life
I was nineteen, broke smoking on an ice pipe
Thinking that's cool, I ain't have no role models
My older brother put them hoses in the coke bottles
I smoked a lot of weed and I popped a lot of xans
Sorry mum I promise that I'll never do drugs again
I ain't trying to waste time when the clocks ticking
I don't need you in my life if you're not driven
I praise the lord cause my family are god given
It broke my heart I couldn't hug 'em in a box visit
All I really need is them and a couple friends
People saying that they love me but I know it's just pretend
When I was locked up in a cell they didn't love me then
It's funny how things work out when on the other end
Drugs used to pay the bills, maybe rap could
I'm making money from my music, it's that good
Flowz 1 I'm the realest you can ask around
I had them lifers in a cypher up in Atwood
I've done the hard yards yeah I've done the prison time
My first TV appearance I was up on Channel Nine
For jumping counters I was wanted by the task force
Altona North Armed Crimes tell them get in line
I really come from the hood I'm a rockstar
You can see me driving round Newy in a hot car
Or at the train staysh taking photos with my fans
If you talking shit behind my back you are not hard
I came from the bottom, so I'm gonna shine bright
Just like my dad was I'm destined for the limelight
And fuck the ardshays I ain't got no time for that
Cause I've lost way too many friends to the ice pipe
When I was young I was confused I didn't know how to deal with all the pain
I smoke a cone until I zone out
Along the way I lost myself up in them smoke clouds
My head spinning like I'm on a merry-go-round
I was on prescription pills they help me, but they don't work
Seroquel it fucked my head and xannies make my bones hurt
When I was sick I couldn't even walk to go to church
Mumzy had to drive me everywhere like a chauffeur
Admitting that I had a problem was the first step
I had to throw the pipe away I haven't seen the worst, yet
I ended up in prison then eventually my girl left
My family are everything it kills me that I hurt them
Just to get to sleep I used to have to take a few xans
I couldn't function properly on the drugs, tell me who can
Lunch break I had no money for the food van
3 years later and I'm feeling like a new man
