[00:09.83]
[00:21.62]Like
[00:23.22]I met my girl when I was 18 years old
[00:26.35]And she was just turning 23
[00:28.23]I really love her from my heart
[00:30.83]And even though I don't deserve it fam I hope she loves me
[00:33.54]So I just done this private show I'm doing Footlocker promo
[00:36.75]And judging from the postcode it was Shoreditch or Soho
[00:39.49]Did 6 or 7 tracks, made 6 or 7 racks
[00:42.41]A couple days later on twitter I saw
[00:44.61]This photo of myself and I was grinning
[00:46.71]That 4K camera of quality had got me tripping
[00:49.21]So I'm checking out who did it
[00:50.56]When I stumbled on this girl
[00:51.92]And I could tell that she was different
[00:53.75]A couple hours later now I'm liking all her pictures
[00:56.20]I ain't finished
[00:57.24]I typed her twitter name into my Insta
[00:59.06]So I could check on every single little digit
[01:01.16]Why didn't I just message her?
[01:02.83]Trust me I was thinking
[01:03.98]But I'm a self-centred rapper too concerned about my image
[01:06.72]The truth
[01:07.68]So when she hit me first I'm pretty shocked I didn't burst
[01:10.60]I'm calling Josh, Jack and Juss who am I ringing first?
[01:13.27]Man I was so excited
[01:14.78]That I replied a minute later that's that bro
[01:17.05]I think that you just let her know excited
[01:19.07]Too excited, no clue on what I should do excited
[01:21.61]So I'm just typing, rambling like a fool, excited
[01:25.83]
[01:28.80]Look
[01:29.48]Look
[01:30.23]And we were talking for hours over some minor things
[01:33.00]Ignoring everyone else to her I'm replying quick
[01:35.68]This type of chick she got a spark like you were lighting spliffs
[01:38.52]You know you like her when you're thinking about your words
[01:40.73]She got me typing, deleting my messages then re-writing
[01:43.70]In the hope that there's a smile when she's replying
[01:45.81]The highlight of my day,
[01:47.19]Them phone calls in the night it's the little things
[01:50.08]The girl, she had a vibe and I liked it and
[01:52.79]She's into photography and she's got a passion for it
[01:55.48]And she respects that I'm rapping but she ain't catting for it
[01:57.96]See that's the perfect balance
[01:59.50]There's nothing better than a girl with talent
[02:01.40]Drive, ambition all of them things above
[02:03.38]She's showing an abundance
[02:04.78]I ain't even met her yet
[02:05.94]She works around the corner but lives just outside of London
[02:08.62]I ain't fronting, I'm a sweet boy
[02:10.29]Intentions are in question so my compliments are decoys
[02:12.98]If that even makes sense?
[02:14.34]The first time I met her, I'm surrounded by my friends
[02:16.87]Random ends on some staircase
[02:18.75]So much for a first date
[02:20.09]I just had a show
[02:21.17]And I asked if she could meet me after
[02:22.86]Maybe we could chill, you never know where things could go
[02:25.00]No problem she down to roll
[02:26.95]Travel in the cold
[02:28.27]So I went across the road, grey hoodie under a coat
[02:30.77]If I'm remembering correctly
[02:32.53]It's always kind of weird when the person that you were texting
[02:34.99]Is the person you are obsessed with
[02:36.67]I was on her from the jump
[02:37.95]I think she was wearing pumps or Vans when
[02:39.87]I first met her, no, it's either either one
[02:41.88]She was looking so attractive I barely saw
[02:44.51]Skin 'cause she was covered like a mattress
[02:46.26]Man, I think that she's the one
[02:47.64]I was stuck for twenty seconds trying to give the girl a hug
[02:50.60]And all my friends were drunk so **** it, I'm about to kiss her
[02:53.54]Any complications, I'm blaming it on the liquor
[02:56.04]Changing my name on Twitter and blocking her on my Insta
[02:59.30]I saw her skin blush the moment that our lips touched
[03:02.42]She pulled my bottom lip until it stretched
[03:04.72]Kissed me on my cheek until she reached around my neck
[03:07.13]And had me moaning like a *****
[03:08.71]Even though I'm wearing jeans
[03:10.21]I had to re-arrange my **** so she don't see that I'm erect
[03:13.25]It's the first time we met, got me feeling like a creep
[03:15.69]And that strawberry flavour gave her tongue a kinda sweet little taste
[03:18.93]And we could speak about anything we were friends first
[03:22.13]I dropped her to the station I remember
[03:24.07]Cuz we had a conversation for ages about our dreams
[03:26.83]And the things that we hadn't seen and all that we intended to do
[03:30.15]I bet she's hoping my intentions are true
[03:33.15]And as months went by we both got into it, and intimate
[03:36.06]And I'mma spare you the details cuz
[03:38.91]Both of our parents are probably listening
[03:40.93]But really we were into it
[03:42.37]Into us, into this
[03:43.89]Into everything about each other we were lovers
[03:46.05]And I love her cuz she knows me
[03:47.75]And that's probably why she told me you ain't ready for a girl
[03:50.64]You're still a little kid that's getting ready for the world
[03:53.17]And you don't need that kinda burden
[03:54.59]But I told her that I want it
[03:56.32]And I'm just being honest
[03:57.55]Yes I know that girls exist but I don't see them as a problem
[04:00.10]I meant every single word
[04:01.72]And I ain't gonna lie and say DM's have
[04:03.85]Been absurd but out of every single girl
[04:05.67]This is the weirdest of positions
[04:07.44]It's usually the girl that's asking where
[04:09.25]I see her fitting or a place on her position
[04:10.81]But I'm telling her I need it
[04:13.12]And I don't think she sees it so I'm being ever sweeter
[04:15.53]When we're speaking and we're meeting
[04:17.70]I've got affectionate messages, you could read them
[04:20.87]You gotta tell a girl that she's beautiful until she sees it
[04:23.14]Believes it, understands it more than physically
[04:26.00]Mentally, and the way that I'm feeling
[04:28.21]I could talk 10 years about the moment that we shared
[04:30.99]The jokes that we had running
[04:32.55]The places that we've been
[04:33.71]The music we made together producing next to my bed
[04:36.41]Then making my minor changes in reference to what she said
[04:39.14]I think I start to getting tired, my shcedule's a mess
[04:42.17]Replies are gettin' lazy and my lady knows it's crazy
[04:44.80]But she's there if I'm in need
[04:46.23]While I'm at shows getting tempted by girls that are on their knees
[04:49.07]You know I'm only a teen, it's like my eyes started drifting
[04:51.93]Not as easy as I pictured to give your all to a woman
[04:54.61]Ignoring all this attention that's been getting to my head
[04:57.43]The *** is so accessible,
[04:58.97]One message or text and girls will get in your bed
[05:01.65]She's tryna make it happen with photos and her events
[05:04.76]I mentioned it's her passion, photography is her thing
[05:07.08]And I don't know if it's the pressure
[05:08.65]Where paper meets the passion and the pleasure
[05:11.01]We all got a work to survive
[05:12.78]So now she's popping up at shows
[05:14.21]Taking pictures on her own
[05:15.63]And at first it wasn't cool
[05:16.97]But **** it we let it go
[05:18.39]Until I saw her in some rapper's tracksuit, I felt a way
[05:21.19]She told me it was work and she was in some studio
[05:23.48]Taking pictures and I just sighed
[05:25.47]Some halfway wannabe rappers that fed her lies
[05:27.91]He ain't looking for no pictures
[05:29.78]I know it's your profession
[05:31.03]But read their intentions
[05:32.42]They ain't paying male photographers to shoot that same session
[05:34.75]And that felt so disrespectful, standing on our dreams
[05:37.90]And crushing 'em, I just told her it's nothing do what you need to do
[05:41.24]If I ain't feeding you
[05:42.63]Then my opinion's all I'm giving when I speak to you
[05:45.16]Cause I don't have the right
[05:46.23]Why should girls be punished for a male's dirty mind?
[05:49.12]When I think about it now, I'm ashamed to the core
[05:51.83]I mean how many men stop their women
[05:53.86]From achieving what they can because
[05:55.64]In secret they've been feelig insecure
[05:57.76]And I can't handle my emotions, it's probably why I didn't see her
[06:00.50]Talent when I shoulda been supporting and promoting
[06:02.28]Like I didn't have a platform, a voice and a following
[06:06.19]With everyone I knew
[06:07.16]I really coulda do a lot of things to help chase her dream
[06:10.02]But instead of me to grow into the person that she needs
[06:12.59]I acted like I couldn't see
[06:14.83]And I don't mean to say this like I don't trust the girl
[06:17.39]But how can I trust her if I don't trust myself?
[06:20.23]And even girls can get tempted you know how it goes
[06:22.88]What if she meets a bigger rapper when she's at a show?
[06:25.77]What if he sees her backstage?
[06:27.44]What if he selling lots?
[06:28.79]What if he's got a bigger car, got a better watch?
[06:31.52]That doesn't bother me, she really ain't material
[06:34.19]It's all the little things they do that put the fear in you
[06:37.03]What if he actually replies?
[06:38.60]What if he phones her too?
[06:39.86]What if he's doing all the things that I'm supposed to do?
[06:42.60]What if he's listening, laughing, relating?
[06:45.43]What if he even cares to ask her how her day's been?
[06:48.11]What he's trying to give her everything she needs
[06:50.56]And expects from the one damn person that she's dating?
[06:54.19]I shoulda helped her follow her dream
[06:56.04]But instead I held her back and had her following me
[06:59.29]And boys got a brave face so you'll never know
[07:02.23]That hurts just as much when you let them go
