Lyrics: Craig Corea/Una Mey Music: Craig Corea/Una Mey Let me tell you ‘bout a kid from Kam city I grew up on the south side, they said it was so pretty My mom would tell me "stay here ‘til your twenty" But I left at nineteen ‘Cause I really thought I was ready to go and follow my dreams I had a rough start, tried to outrun all these entities Quickly turned to enemies, now listen what they're telling me Detrimental mental states penetrating my mind They thought I was delicate, I get stronger with time But I got past that, I gotta be honest I gotta be smooth and I gotta be flawless And I promise to come visit you every couple of months We can go and get some lunch and talk about how much I suck Remember South Kam? Remember Aberdeen? Remember falling in love, not knowing what that means It was a travesty, I never had the cavalry But now I’m older, probably do that shit sporadically
Every day and every night it was the same shit Since forever, been a lame kid Momma always told me I was different I was special and I loved how that sounded Passion is passion regardless of doubts I follow my actions Relaxing my habits First time that I’m standing I’ll shout "my mans is fantastic"
Let me tell you ‘bout a kid from Van City now I used to wear the coloured jeans but now I toned it down And with the pen and pad in hand, I paint a panoramic view I never picked apart my problems, probably put them all on you So, I’m sorry I never played it like Atari I’m evidently naughty, put the coal inside my stocking Now I’m struggling to find some inspiration for the rhythm I can tell you I’m depressed but that is clearly just a given I’m living honourable, put me on the honour roll I’m more on point than when Brady calls an audible They see me releasing shit through Nyhla, that’s not possible He was a quiet kid, how did he overcome these obstacles He wasn’t the same since those dudes called him lame Now compared to all of them I’m in a whole ‘nother lane (Skrrrrrrt) Hating on Craig, better hit ‘em with the rain Better saddle up to battle, since I left, I ain't the same
Every day and every night it was the same shit Since forever, been a lame kid Momma always told me I was different I was special and I loved how that sounded Passion is passion regardless of doubts I follow my actions Relaxing my habits First time that I’m standing I’ll shout "my mans is fantastic"
