what’re the odds?

came from nothing at all

bro we poor like the church

wanted better for me, I started putting in work

Mum was defaulting on loans, man it couldn’t get worse

I had to get up & get it

can’t move like you Niggas, I came out here from gidi

Y’all moving way too sluggish

Can’t relate to your privilege, had to stand firm on b’ness

(B’ness Ye Ye Ye)

This shit my real life, why I ain’t got time for niggas too comfy to put in work

Don’t mess with my bag, I’ll fuck you up in the daylight

It’s on sight

Bonsam when I splash man,

Coke bottle on my left hand

Night night

Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go

A new day, time to get back in the road

Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher

I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes

Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go

A new day, time to get back in the road

Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher

I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes

I ghost them all, then linked again pulled up in ghost

It is not pride, I just had to go grind for my folks

At 22 I thought I would’ve smashed all my goals

‘magine the irony, that was the year I didn’t have a home

My nigga in this life

I can’t be civil cuz nothing was ever handed to me, I had to fight to get what everyone else got for free

I came from failure but it won’t be the ending of me

My kids will ball forever cuz of all decisions i made

Man I done seen it all, I could go blind and tell you nothing new would come

I won’t be lying if I told you I done felt it all

So many tragic things I don’t wanna see no more

Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go

A new day, time to get back in the road

Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher

I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes

Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go

A new day, time to get back in the road

Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher

I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes

As an African kid

Your first battle in life is against poverty

You have to defeat poverty to find purpose

You need money to find purpose

You need money to fuel purpose

You have to defeat poverty to find purpose

Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go

A new day, time to get back in the road

Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher

I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes

Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go

A new day, time to get back in the road

Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher

I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes
