[Intro]
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match...
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match...
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match...
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart...
[Verse 1]
I've shelled down some greazy places
Man's been around some greazy faces
If one of them does dirt and they put in some work
Just know they ain't leaving traces
Man know me, I'm a Godly yute
I don't front rudeboy, I don't need to fake it
And I got youngers lookin' up to me
Like "Melly, you need to make it"
For them I need to blow
Ain't got a choice it's deeper bro
They ain't never seen no local don who reps God, with a dream succeeding bro
How can I tell a man "Leave the roads" and "Leave illegitimate pee's alone"
If I ain't showing him that it's possible, man can really make dreams evolve
So it's like every verse I write on every beat
Every time I win it's not for me
Every time they book me for a show
Tell promoters "I don't rap for free"
I don't only represent myself
I'm on stage a hundred man with me
I can't count the times they pulled my whip
From Stratford all the way to Chadwell Heath
They thought that this music ting was bants
Over years a man's invested grands
Up in studio, don't see my fam
Crying with my head up in my hands
They don't know the pressures that I face
Nearly 25 and not a man
Still ain't reconciling with my dad
While telling kids from broken homes they can
[Chorus]
Lord I pray that when I play this back
Tears will fall before it fades to black
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
I don't wanna care about myself
Help me live for you and no one else
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Lord I pray that when I play this back
Tears will fall before it fades to black
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
I don't wanna care about myself
Help me live for you and no one else
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
[Interlude]
"..Really and truly man, you know, brush it off man. You know a lot of that's gonna come, a lot of that, lotta that's gonna.. You know. And I'm speaking first-hand, ya know what I'm saying, a lot of that's come my way. Um, but yeah literally just a heads up man, and just to keep on doing what you're doing. And we know, we know why we're doing what we're doing, and let God be glorified man. You know, so, yeah let's get it man, let's get it, let's do this."
[Verse 2]
My heart's bleeding out, my friend's say they never see me out
Man I ain't got the time or the money for a holiday, I barely watch TV now
My boy said that he woulda paid it but I ain't tryna' ask for a freebie now
So it's kinda' funny when the young G's tell me that they really wanna be me now
I don't get it, over all these kids why did God give me such influence?
I still ain't got my life together, can't name a struggle I ain't been through yet
Told my girl "I think that I'm depressed"
She said "Regardless how you feel you're blessed"
4am I wake up from the stress
Sweating in my bed I try to rest
I ain't checked my bank account in weeks
Every time I do it's less and less
Why do people listen when I speak
If I tell the truth my life's a mess
I can't do this on my own I'm weak
Getting sick of dying to my flesh
There's a lot of ways a man can eat
But there's only one that doesn't lead to death
If I give up now I ain't living
Can't let the mandem down I ain't with it
I am the one they count on not quitting
No shortcuts allowed on this mission
I am a problem, and the solution
Tryna' get my kings up out of this prison
And I pray every time they play this there's more wisdom found in each listen (Listen)
[Chorus]
Lord I pray that when I play this back
Tears will fall before it fades to black
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
I don't wanna care about myself
Help me live for you and no one else
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Lord I pray that when I play this back
Tears will fall before it fades to black
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
I don't wanna care about myself
Help me live for you and no one else
Break my heart and give me yours to match
Break my heart and give me yours to match
