[00:24.75]
[00:24.91] The only real difference is you slyer than me,
[00:26.00]
[00:26.16] Your need for attention makes you attract the beef,
[00:28.13]
[00:28.33] Ironically

[00:36.44]
[00:36.59] I will not tell a lie,
[00:37.65]
[00:37.85] I remember the time
[00:38.90]
[00:39.10] I came your yard with a knife,
[00:40.15]
[00:40.35] I don’t wanna tek life but
[00:41.66]

[00:42.76]
[00:42.96] But im bigger than that now

[00:54.56]
[00:54.71] And keep your mouth closed,
[00:57.27]
[00:57.48] A proper attitude is better than fancy close,
[00:58.24]
[00:58.39] So as the chapter close that’s how the story goes,
[01:00.50]
[01:00.70] As I’ve grown
[01:01.45]
[01:01.65] I’ve learnt that friends turn to foes.
[01:02.72]
[01:02.87] CHORUSI heard you got your yard now
[01:03.87]
[01:04.07] Fully grown now
[01:04.99]

[01:06.17]
[01:06.33] Cause I ovastand
[01:07.59]
[01:07.79] Ovastanding is the key key
[01:09.56]

[01:43.67]
[01:43.82] People are bad mind,
[01:44.48]
[01:44.68] Insecurity breads hate it’s a fact find,
[01:47.86]
[01:48.05] In fact im sure it’s incurable,
[01:50.10]
[01:50.26] Some people positive while some people are negative and totally oblivious to the harm they cause,
[01:55.15]
[01:55.30] For every
[01:55.70]
[01:55.85] Malcom X there is a president bush,

[02:08.19]
[02:08.34] Too busy with they bizz but now with kids having kids it’s gonna get worse than this,
[02:12.02]
[02:12.17] Only just realising what mama said,
[02:14.12]
