Know I’m human can’t be perfect

All these habits coming back….

Those temptations are distractions

But I sit and write my track….

Heart Is strong I need to be

Cannot show complacency

Raised as soldier shoulders bolder….

Yeah on that you need to see

Fighting battles all my life

Never had a father figure….

Growing up I made It right

Now I see my heart Is bigger….

From the dark It made It bright

Like the drink the name Is Bigga….

Had to cut off all the Sprite

Cos I knew that was the trigger….

But stayed focused Hocus Pocus

Witch way did I go you know?….

But they noticed and they know this

Character Is what I’ll show….

Head Is stronger hair Is longer

Those conditions are a go….

No more scratching no more touching

Tell them clowns the answers no….

On my ones I’m lone wolf

Silence Is my the-ra-py….

Peace and quiet what I need

That’s my perfect re-me-dy….

Have a purpose for this life

Need to have good e-ner-gy….

Block out all the fricking noise

Leave It out like me-mo-ry….

Can’t be smoking all these ciggys

And I stopped like eating Mickeys

Can’t be spending money see

On these things I need to be

Staying humble Royal Rumble

Went through chaos and It tumbled

Went through that without a tee

Need a cup of loyal tea

Had to work my nine to five

For my mum I did provide

All the food and grocery….

All the meals came with a side

No emotions cannot hide

Had to let go of my pride

One day have rotisserie….

And my mouth be getting wide

Know I’m human can’t be perfect

All these habits coming back….

Those temptations are distractions

But I sit and write my track….

Heart Is strong I need to be

Cannot show complacency

Raised as soldier shoulders bolder….

Yeah on that you need to see

So you know was born a muslim

Billaray I know I miss him

Discipline Is what we have

Writing better than that Nav

Strong Imaan Is what I’m missing

See those snakes they keep on hissing

See them on the satnav

German Monchengladbach

Do my ting I do that daily

Making duas for me to save me

Working out like Kevin Spacey

One day take a trip to Macy

And I know I’m doing good

Looking back I miss my hood

Chasing peace It helps my mood

No disguise I wear my snood

Charities are on rotation

Use my lotion with the motion

And they thought I had a notion

Rather sit and watch the ocean

Writing rhymes whilst keeping fast

Ramadan we want to last

Perfect time to seek forgiveness….

Look to future not the past

So you know I’m always able

As a man bring lots to table

From the era watching cable

Love my syrup call It maple (honey)

Working harder not hard worker

That’s my young days now work smarter

My routine Is off the chain

With a purpose and a brain
