[00:19.78]Never cared about being immortalised
[00:21.65]How can I stand with the opps and not with the tribe?
[00:24.03]They sell you a dream and they want you to glorify
[00:26.17]Got a rude awakenin', by ignorin', I pull the signs
[00:28.97]Why did I give you the keys to authorize shit on my behalf?
[00:32.05]Now, I'm scarred and mortified
[00:33.76]What did I expect from those livin' the corporate life?
[00:35.96]Unfortunately, honesty isn't normalised
[00:38.45]Had to get my shit together and get organised
[00:40.56]If your hand's in my pockets, I'm calling up all the guys
[00:43.12]Though, I don't wanna be the reason of more divide
[00:45.79]Guess that's in my nature of being a water sign
[00:48.43]I'm sorta like, nothing is making sense in my awkward mind
[00:53.35]Give me your ears, and let me feel the night
[00:55.34]Shooting in the dark, guess I never saw the light
[00:57.88]Revoke access, I'm running it back, yes
[01:00.13]Missing opportunities, I wish I was that pressed
[01:03.22]Yeah, I say that shit with my damn chest
[01:04.84]You need me and you feel the loss of my absence
[01:07.41]The novelty wears off after a few years
[01:09.88]After a few tears from challenging new fears
[01:12.27]Learning everything I didn't on the come up
[01:14.72]We was too busy making music 'till the sun up
[01:17.74]Everyday through the summer
[01:19.22]Didn't learn the business, and now I'm ducking for cover
[01:21.91]What a fuck up
[01:22.89]Might just leave a bad taste thinking I'm a sucker
[01:25.21]Come up out my damn face, nigga, did I stutter?
[01:27.73]It gon' be a sad case if you see my brothers
[01:30.27]I can see how an artist can get tainted, frustrated
[01:34.05]They don't care if your mental is on the brink of something dark
[01:36.62]As long as your cutting somebody's payslip
[01:38.52]And sending their kids to private school in a spaceship
[01:41.28]Yeah, I refuse to be on a slave ship
[01:43.59]Give me all my masters and lower your wages
[01:45.80]Huh, what I'm bringing to the table is more
[01:48.43]Than the feast for the belly of the beast
[01:50.56]Didn't know I'm dropping something heavy for the streets
[01:52.96]Fuck the politics, I'm going Meghan on you neeks
[01:55.29]I need the best seats in the house
[01:57.02]When the truth unfolds, it's gonna be one hell of a scene
[02:00.28]Harry listening from Heaven on repeat
[02:02.88]He was backing it when nobody believed
[02:04.96]"Play the game, play the game," is what they scream
[02:07.43]You can play the game, I don't see the need, no
[02:09.63]Feel so alive, I woke up and I prayed for a sign
[02:17.45]I know, good things take time
[02:21.77]God sent me you as an Angel
[02:28.85]When your alone, the little thoughts that nobody knows
[02:36.69]Hardest thing to do was stay strong
[02:41.18]I knew I needed an Angel
[02:43.53]My Saturn return in effect
[02:45.76]Life doesn't come with pre-sets
[02:47.60]My frequency seamless
[02:49.17]They want you give more, expect you dream less
[02:52.58]Got me confessing all my secrets
[02:54.61]You ain't the only one under deep stress
[02:56.87]Please, don't take my kindness for a weakness
[02:59.00]Get G checked for your disrespect
[03:01.75]Perception and observation is clinical
[03:03.74]More headspace, I've been shaving off my occipital
[03:06.55]They say, "You can hate who you don't love"
[03:09.27]And they say, "Love is unconditional"
[03:11.57]I ready to do the unthinkable
[03:13.54]Fuck rules and everything that's traditional
[03:16.67]Giving your heart to someone
[03:18.67]Might just, leave you in a, something something
[03:21.58]Feel so alive, I woke up and I prayed for a sign
[03:29.53]I know, good things take time
[03:33.73]God sent me you as an Angel
[03:40.68]When you're alone, the little thoughts nobody knows
[03:48.56]Hardest thing to do was stay strong
[03:53.12]I knew I needed an Angel, an Angel
[04:08.97]How you go against the same system you was colonised by?
[04:12.12]Brudda, your whole ting compromised
[04:13.86]Having these conversations with self, and nobody else
[04:16.20]Thinking they don't understand my thinking when I socialise
[04:18.78]I need an Angel with me for armour
[04:20.33]I need accountability, partner
[04:22.27]I know that all these blessings are karma
[04:24.16]I need a fire lit by the seaside
[04:25.91]Purest manuka up in my beehive
[04:27.59]Give me a second, and let the beat ride
[04:31.94]Is there a golden key to the sweet life?
[04:34.02]I don't know what's gotten into me
[04:35.37]But, at least I'm making time for self
[04:37.03]And not others when I got free time
[04:38.53]New woman, don't tell me I shouldn't just because you couldn't
[04:41.75]They say, "Don't you give up too much of the truth to 'em"
[04:44.13]Well, I got nine more songs in the boot for 'em
[04:46.49]Figured this is the moment, I gotta speak now
[04:48.89]Head high, back straight, feet down
[04:51.49]Posture going crazy
[04:52.86]Had to stand tall while they were trying to break me
[04:55.16]Fuck that, you niggas didn't make me
[04:56.93]And, I say you will never infiltrate me
[04:59.44]Dim my light? Are you crazy?
[05:01.44]Yo, we two worlds apart, you know, lady, lady, lady
[05:04.03]Flo and I coming like DeNiro with Scorsese
[05:06.57]Stop trying to box me, and there's no way you can place me
[05:09.08]Hit 'em with a classic then I got a little lazy
[05:11.30]Had to get the pen when I remembered that I'm JAY-Z
[05:13.84]Had to cut you off because I found out you are snakey
[05:16.30]I got Angels guiding my steps, guarding my life from now until death
[05:21.07]Perspective is everything and I wonder what they see
[05:23.36]Hurt people, hurt people, I get it, but, don't pay me
[05:26.67]My Saturn return in effect
[05:28.97]Life doesn't come with pre-sets
[05:30.73]My frequency seamless
[05:32.90]So, please don't take my kindness for a weakness
[05:35.23]Cos I got Angels
