“Favourite” is a song about ones true identity. It’s about remembering to not get caught up with trying to impress others so much, that you begin to lose sight of yourself. In the music video we see a young boy trying different activities to get his fathers attention, when all along his father knows...
[Verse 1]
Start my day with none other than prayers in the morning
And I don’t know if i’m just scared or I wanna be prepared so I seek the man upstairs for precaution
Or if
I really want to change the way i’m walking
That’s metaphorical
There’s no problem with the way that I step
I got a way with finesse
And the ladies say they love the way I got the game on lock and there’s less harder-working n*ggas than the days that I rest -
Don’t let that go over your head though
Ten toes been sho’ from the get go
Whippin’ like Gipetto
You n*ggas only stick around for months man I’ve been doing this for years and you ain’t even seen the demo
The anticipations killing me
I know it takes longer cos I move differently
Inner me’s kinda worried ‘bout the industry
So I just say a prayer before I execute delivery, i’m charged up
[Hook]
Pray and deliver
I been killing myself tryna be your favourite n*gga but it’s hopeless
Probably why I stay on that liquor
Only way that I could try to move the pain to my liver
I been broken
(The) ‘Way I don’t get out or rest
You would think i’m on house arrest
I’m not joking
If anybody wanna doubt i’m blessed
I’m bulletproof but without the vest, I’m on smoke n*gga
[Verse 2]
I got my life to pattern I can’t play with
Any petty person stuck up on the same shit-
Days spent wasting away only complaining
Instead of using energy investing it in changes
Got a confession though i’m unapologetic i’m not bothered what you say and i’ll make sure you get the message
I need money just to spend and then i need space
I’m talking ‘least 3 trees in a briefcase
Now that’s abundance
Business as usual you can find me on the grind all the time this is live from the dungeon
If the trap lines doing backflips then it’s mad I guess I got a fucking circus cos my emails doing frontflips
Life liver
Vibe bringer
Tight n*gga
Power in my faith it’s only right that I pray right before I deliver
[Hook]
Pray and deliver
I been killing myself tryna be your favourite n*gga but it’s hopeless
Probably why I stay on that liquor
Only way that I could try to move the pain to my liver
I been broken
(The) ‘Way I don’t get out or rest
You would think i’m on house arrest
I’m not joking
If anybody wanna doubt i’m blessed
I’m bulletproof but without the vest, I’m on smoke n*gga
[Outro]
They don’t understand
All I can do is my best
They don’t understand
All i can do is my best
All I can do is the best that i got
I’m not perfect
And shit I been stressing a lot
It’s not worth it
I feel like i’m losing the will to be human Assuming that I got the skill
I should bloom like a tulip
But they just don’t want me to shine
It fucks with my mind
I put my heart into every line
This time i’ll just put it on ice
And see how that goes
Let’s just wait and see how that goes
