A Tale of Distortion (Intro)
Yeah
Uh huh
Okay
Yeah, okay
(T double O N)
Ladies & gentlemen (Yeah)
This is the specimen (Yeah)
This is what happens when so and so gets better than (Uh)
The shit that you letting in (Right)
Look at the form on him (Look)
This is the product of Jesus Christ being back again (Okay now)
I think it's evident (Woop)
My shit's on another level (Yeah)
Gimme a second to rhyme
Try not get lost in the line
I got no time to turn back and get the people behind
What I am moving towards
Is not for everyone cause
My brand isn't endorsed (Nah)
They not opening doors (Nope)
So I'm breaking me in (Glass breaks)
I don't need your remorse (Nah)
See it's part of the course (Yeah)
They don't offer support
Till you backed by some names and your name is on forbes
Then they backing it up "we was down for the ride
We were always there homie, we were right by your side
got your shit on my playlist
Man your shit is a vibe"
but behind those doors "...at best it's ait" (Ay)
Ait
So
I'm taking it back (Back)
I don't really rap (Rap)
I just say words (Words)
That land on the clap (Clap)
And baby I'm glad (Glad)
You listen to that (That)
But I know of course (Yeah)
This ain't your sauce (Nope)
Sometimes it feels like your actions are forced ('Cause)
I know that you'd rather bump grimy and hoarse (And)
It's something you do (It's)
Required of you
And look it's cool
That'd be me too
It's all a game
It's the way of life
It's something I've
Known but I
Chose to miss
Just live in bliss
'Cause ignorance is
"Will you listen to this?"
Then you put it off till nothing better to do
Then you fake a smile
Say something I'll
Wanna hear (Yup)
While all the while (Mmh)
You're waiting for this to finish "I hate this style"
Ait
So
I'm angry at everything
Angry at everyone
This was the point in my life where basically I'd be done
I'd be an icon
A hero where I'm from
On T.V. "Hi mom!"
But that's not real life (Nah)
I'm up all night (Uh)
Stuck - I can't write (Paper ripping)
And if I make beats "That snare sounds shite"
And if I try mix "Why's that not bright?"
So what's the next best?
Blame the blameless
Blame my friends who I don't ask for favours (Look)
Blame my girlfriend, Stormzy her favourite (Uh)
Blame my 'rents who did not let me drop out
Blame my group who when I ghosted did doubt
Blame everybody but the man in the mirror
Yeah (Yeah)
That's my nigga (Yup)
Blame everybody but the man in the mirror
Yeah (Yeah)
That's my...
That - that's my... (Yeah)
That's my... (Yeah)
That - that's my... (Uh)
That - that... that's my nigga
