[Hook: Kay Wills]
When you’re trapped in a world
And forced to prevail
And there’s no place that you can go
You just dream along
Until freedom comes
In a losing fight
And still I try
But when hope is all you know
You keep holding on
Until freedom comes
[Verse 1: Little Torment]
Just a little break I’ll do anything just for that break
They say my shits about to take off I tell you boy I cannot wait
Man I've been stuck up in the place
Cooling where it isn't safe
My browski with me in the studio because he just wanna get away
Cos the hood will lead a man astray
Have you thinking what it really ain't
Make you think you've got it all when really there ain't nothing on the plate
No friends that you could vouch for
No money accounted for
That’s why I need that money ima need an accountant for I’m about that paper
That’s why I get it every day just as long as I wake up
You know that feeling when you know it’s time to raise the stake up
I get that feeling every time I see another hater
Hating on my team were going gone won't be seeing you later
I’m going free I’m bout to be where I wanna be, do what I wanna do, go and see what I wanna see
I need that freedom just to go where i wanna go, feel what I wanna feel, and live the life that I wanna live
So ima be working all night
I’m picking it up we’re about to take flight, this is for all them nights were I spent on a grind, just for some pocket change
But a lot has changed and so much more is gonna change, I jus dream along when I feel like I ain’t got no place
Even when I’m losing the fight yeah I've still got some faith
That I’ll prevail I’m sure I’ll do well I got a lot to say
Put the negatives to the side and I’ll be on my way
Put your negatives to the side and you'll be on your way
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Merkz]
LLife can bring you down, so my heads up in the clouds for a second
Why did it take my guy to die for him to learn his lesson?
That’s why I’m praying up to god just tryna earn his blessing
Cos you can die by the weapon because of the turf your repping
In the city of London it’s just depressing days
Everybody grinds, but not everybody’s getting paid
And I can say that I honestly ain't
You think the government gives a shit about Poverty Rate
But I remember when I shook hands with Kendrick
He said we're great artists, I'm just hoping that he meant it
And cos we deserve the credit, plus lately gods been telling me
That I can I make it legendary
To make it is my destiny
The cities where I'm grafting
The hood is where I'm sleeping
I should get into fasting
Cos I'm hardly eating
And you can say its peak because it's got me feeling weak
I can't wait for the day when I'm living free
[Verse 3: Tempz]
Yeah my brothers told me keep chasing
No matter how long it takes you
But see this city's a pity it can either make or break you
And I know how it feels yeah when the odds against you
Nah I ain’t all good I'm still in the hood awaiting my breakthrough
Nah
I ain’t ungrateful
I just want my plate full on a table with my family around me that’s loyal and faithful
From where I've been and what I've came through
Blood sweat and tears that will stain you
Yeah this shit's frustrating
All in my head and yeah its aching
Nah this shit ain't worth debating
See I'm just asking for freeness
And I mean this when i say the streets is the meanest
I'm From the land full of dreamers and yeah were sinners too
No different from you
And yeah I feel it when I wake up
Straight up
Yeah I know its tough
When every day you gotta hustle
It’s a struggle to rise above but…
Put the negative to the side and I’ll be on my way
Put the negative to the side and you'll be on your way
