[00:04.258] (Everything's fine)
[00:04.939] Look
[00:05.309]
[00:05.899] White fish on the coast of the Caribbean, my life is a film
[00:08.879] Hero and villain, I'm playin' both in the script
[00:10.943] Worthy of spill but I got Christopher Nolan readin'
[00:13.122] The constant overachievin', I know
[00:14.684] I ain't as rich as those people with old money, but, I didn't know money
[00:18.285] They mock me online for speakin' up on all of our issues
[00:20.753] And bein' vocal, the shit that I see on socials
[00:22.970] But, how can I stay silent when, when?
[00:27.014] I'm out in Barbados, white people mistreatin' locals
[00:29.524] The villa in Jamaica but it's owned by the Chinese
[00:32.082] Head to the right beach and they're chargin' us five each
[00:34.763] They say, "The Caribbean paradise, like, why leave?"
[00:37.474] But how can I be silent when there's blood on the pine trees?
[00:39.914] Most of us would sacrifice our soul for the right fees
[00:42.703] Before I find love, I'm just prayin' I find peace
[00:45.303] Before I find love, I'm just prayin' I find peace
[00:47.785] You know what I believe, I don't know if I handled it well
[00:50.764] It's **** Coca-Cola, did I stop drinkin' Fanta as well?
[00:53.362] I could see the blood on the lyrics I write for myself
[00:56.085] I cried about slavery, then went to Dubai with my girl
[00:58.791] Surely I ain't part of the problem, I lied to myself
[01:01.191] Jewels that my people die for are a sign of my wealth
[01:03.858] My work is a physical weight of my life and my health
[01:06.643] The last couple years, feel like I been inside, on a shelf
[01:08.995] I just phoned Cench, and I said, "You inspired myself"
[01:11.947] I don't feel a spot of jealousy inside of myself
[01:14.797] But when I'm all alone, I won't lie, I question myself
[01:17.301] Am I self-destructive? Am I doin' the best for myself?
[01:19.862] I know I love music, but I question the rest of myself
[01:22.207] Like why don't you post pictures or why don't you drop music?
[01:24.904] Or why not do somethin' but sittin' and stressin' yourself
[01:27.303] Ten years, I been in the game and I won't lie, it's gettin' difficult
[01:31.750] This shit used to be spiritual
[01:33.073] We don't need no commentators, we could leave to the sports
[01:36.036] Just listen to the music, why do you need somebody's thoughts?
[01:38.611] And some of it's constructive but most of it is forced
[01:41.080] And why we countin' the numbers, how the music make you feel?
[01:43.894] I'm just bein' real
[01:45.252] Alright
[01:47.706]
[01:50.573] Yeah, white fish on the coast of the Caribbean, my life is a film
[01:54.430] Hero and villain, I'm playin' both in the script
[01:56.454] Worthy of Oscar and Hollywood nominations
[01:58.488] I'm throwin' money at women in different denominations and killin' the conversation
[02:02.665] All them people told me, "Keep grindin', be patient"
[02:05.036] It's weird bein' famous, tryna navigate the spaces
[02:07.556] Feel like a celebrity but you ain't on the A-list
[02:10.484] And you never drop so you ain't really on the playlist
[02:13.179] But your fans love you, can see it on their faces
[02:15.606] America feels so close that you can take it
[02:18.396] 2017, was tryna make it to the ranges
[02:20.901] 2025, I'm tryna make it to the Granges
[02:23.489] How do I explain me and my soulmate are strangers, that we've already met
[02:27.438] And I've known her for ages
[02:28.937] How do I explain, because I'm runnin' out of pages?
[02:31.361] How do I explain South London and its dangers?
[02:34.072] Can't recall the last time that we was all together, but
[02:36.901] All I can remember, the Olympics was in Beijing
[02:39.381] Moved to Dubai, that's for the taxes that they takin'
[02:41.987] Or move to Qatar, feel the breeze on the beach
[02:44.491] But how can I explain to my kids that it's fake wind?
[02:47.225] Free, but I'm broke, have me feelin' like I'm caged in
[02:49.936] How do I explain two pounds got you eight wings?
[02:52.550] How do I explain my opps lost but we ain't win?
[02:55.079] Girls I'm around had surgery on their hips
[02:57.861] How do I explain that I love her the way she is?
[03:00.314] How do I explain my feelings on having kids?
[03:03.223] That it wasn't what it was, but it is what it is
[03:05.691] How do I explain? My niggas are in the hood
[03:08.023] And they don't ask for nothin' even though they know they could
[03:11.271] 'Cause they'd rather trap, rob, and get it on their own
[03:13.683] How do I explain these messages on my phone?
[03:16.016] I just got a call, my girl's sittin' in the car
[03:18.607] And it says, "Serge" but Serge with us in the car
[03:21.461] I know I might sound like a villain from afar
[03:24.020] How do I explain that my mechanic is a chick?
[03:26.651] Or why she callin' me when I don't even own a whip because my license is revoked?
[03:31.919] I mean, how do I explain that I don't want a hill 'cause my identity is pain?
[03:34.670] How do I explain, I mean, how do I explain?
[03:37.391] I went and hit the streets because I didn't want to bus
[03:39.925] I ended up at work and I was barely gettin' paid
[03:42.459] For someone that was two years above me in my age
[03:45.117] I didn't even find it strange, I mean, how do I explain?
[03:49.064]
[04:00.581] Fifty-two miles from Marseilles, I'm in Miraval
[04:03.035] Four years, seventeen days, I ain't been around
[04:05.756] I can't lie, it even shocks me that I'm still around
[04:08.355] I can't lie, it even shocks me how I'm livin' now
[04:11.069] Starin' at this Rachel Jones painting, I'm sittin' down
[04:13.780] The last thing that I drew was a weapon, I'm livin' wild
[04:16.621] Turned twenty-seven, but I feel like I'm still a child
[04:18.793] In this house out in Central London I can barely afford
[04:22.003] Six months sober and I feel like I'm Dave again
[04:24.169] Drinkin' all my pain and my sorrows away again
[04:26.741] I got withdrawal symptoms, but they happen at ATMs
[04:29.415] Next two years, I'll be lookin' at ATMs
[04:32.176] Who's the best artist in the world? I'm sayin' Tems
[04:34.829] Maybe James Blake or Jim, on the day, depends
[04:37.108] Let's see who quits, now we ain't gettin' paid again, yeah
[04:41.163] I'm just here, drinkin' liquor by myself
[04:43.281] Is my music just becomin' a depiction of my wealth?
[04:45.897] Never trust a girl whose lock screen's a picture of herself, I had to learn that shit myself
[04:49.574] Now I'm sittin' by myself with no girl, like, shit, I really did this to myself
[04:53.877] Twenty-seven, and I'm terrified of livin' by myself, 'cause there's a kid inside myself
[04:57.633] I haven't healed, and me and him debate each other
[05:00.805] I can't love myself, I'm made of two people that hate each other
[05:03.244] My parents couldn't even save each other, made each other unhappy
[05:06.396] Used to be excited by the block, but size doesn't matter
[05:09.335] You supply another knot, sling a shot, I couldn't really kill the giant with a rock
[05:13.405] But that's a life that I forgot, and my young boys are slidin' over what?
[05:16.977] I don't know, 'cause I ain't spoke to him in time
[05:18.933] Been afraid of gettin' older, scared of bein' left behind
[05:21.183] And then I—, pssh, and I then I question, will I live my life in resent?
[05:25.522] Is anybody ever gonna take my kindness for strength?
[05:27.773] I gave Tisha the world, it weren't enough and then she went
[05:30.455] Everybody's makin' content but nobody's content
[05:33.284] Safe space, can I vent? It crept up
[05:35.818] My girl cheated on me when I was next up
[05:37.989] It made me want her even more, man, it's messed up
[05:40.738] I still walk around the Vale with my chest out
[05:43.406] I don't wanna leave my house because I'm stressed out
[05:46.088] You done me dirty and you didn't even tell a lie
[05:48.732] It ain't about what you said, it's what you left out
[05:51.398] My whole life, I been feelin' like I'm left out
[05:53.918] If you **** another girl, she say you cheated on her
[05:56.642] And if she **** another man, she say she stepped out
[05:59.256] And if you askin' 'bout Dave, they say, "The best out"
[06:01.899] Yeah, and I survived all these eras 'cause I barely made any, I'm just speakin' how I feel
[06:08.826] Yeah, ****ed up, speakin' how I feel
[06:11.645] Record until the morning, I ain't even had a meal
[06:14.097] I dropped Joni home and fell asleep behind the wheel
[06:16.616] Drivin' at a hundred an hour, I switched gears
[06:19.366] I ain't spoke to one-six-nine in six years
[06:21.846] Don't even get me started on—, this shit's weird
[06:24.749] Call me what you want, but with music, I'm sincere
[06:27.237] You wanna know the reason it's taken me four years?
[06:30.014] It's not 'cause I'm surrounded by yes-men and sycophants
[06:32.777] It's 'cause I'm with producers and people that give a damn
[06:35.178] It's me that's gotta carry the pressure, I live with that
[06:37.845] All I thought about was the song we could give the fans when I was out there gettin' stood up by artists I'm bigger than
[06:43.116] I don't want no girls around when my nieces, they visit man
[06:45.541] They might see the way that I'm livin', I figured that
[06:48.291] I wanna be a good man, but I wanna be myself too
[06:52.212] And I don't think that I could do both, so I can't let her too close
[06:55.343] It hurts, but I'm still movin', feel like it's me versus me and I'm still losin'
[07:02.441]
[07:04.100] Yo, my boy, it's Josiah, what you sayin'
[07:06.621] You know I'ma have to check you on your ****in' birthday, my boy
[07:10.098] More life, my guy
[07:11.650] Man, soon out, don't even watch that
[07:14.130] What're you sayin', though, bro?
[07:16.368] I know you got space on one of them eight-minute, nine-minute tracks to give man a shoutout
[07:20.221] Tell the people there my story
[07:22.432] The man already know what I was, the mandem know, man
[07:26.195] C'mon, bro, I know you got me
[07:30.425] A'ight, lastly, my sis', to mom
[07:33.391] I beg you check in with her, please, make sure she's blessed
[07:36.314] While I'm gone, make sure she's safe
[07:39.002] Ayy, soon home, my boy, love

(Everything's fine)
Look
White fish on the coast of the Caribbean, my life is a film
Hero and villain, I'm playin' both in the script
Worthy of spill but I got Christopher Nolan readin'
The constant overachievin', I know
I ain't as rich as those people with old money, but, I didn't know money
They mock me online for speakin' up on all of our issues
And bein' vocal, the shit that I see on socials
But, how can I stay silent when, when?
I'm out in Barbados, white people mistreatin' locals
The villa in Jamaica but it's owned by the Chinese
Head to the right beach and they're chargin' us five each
They say, "The Caribbean paradise, like, why leave?"
But how can I be silent when there's blood on the pine trees?
Most of us would sacrifice our soul for the right fees
Before I find love, I'm just prayin' I find peace
Before I find love, I'm just prayin' I find peace
You know what I believe, I don't know if I handled it well
It's **** Coca-Cola, did I stop drinkin' Fanta as well?
I could see the blood on the lyrics I write for myself
I cried about slavery, then went to Dubai with my girl
Surely I ain't part of the problem, I lied to myself
Jewels that my people die for are a sign of my wealth

I'm just bein' real
Alright
Yeah, white fish on the coast of the Caribbean, my life is a film
Hero and villain, I'm playin' both in the script
Worthy of Oscar and Hollywood nominations
I'm throwin' money at women in different denominations and killin' the conversation
All them people told me, "Keep grindin', be patient"
