Watch this!
[Verse 3]
Climbed so high, I'm starting to feel dizzy
CR7 on the pitch, I'm still tricky
Had a couple real **** in the field with me
I didn't bring the steel with me
'Cause I'm a businessman now
When big top shottas started asking for a handout
I knew I'd lost my old friends and I would have to stand down
Couple of my frenemies, I nearly had to bang out
Man down! Man down! And I could bring the gang out
[Verse 4]
Rule number one: be low-key and never stand out
In Liverpool I learned to bury money, that's a mad town
Eating porridge in my Dolce & Gabbana nightgown
Pictures in my iCloud and slits in my eyebrow
One from thе barber, the other from somе other shit
Damn! I hate to reminisce
Like when I used to listen to 'The Chronic'
Back when I thought chronic had the remedy
Rule number two: protect your energy
And this is big business, I'm tryna build an empire
And this is really me, I'm tryna live and inspire
They won't get the message if I don't speak the language
Sometimes I have to JDZ and spit fire
Growing up, watching movie stars like Denzel
Where I come from it's not easy to do well
I'm in Mexico, shaking hands with the cartel
I told 'em that I'm gangster too and that I started in hell
[Verse 5]
Mum told me I should come home
Oh naw, I'm still adapting to the timezone
She calls me "the dodger" 'cause I'm in a league of my own
Skillful, listen to me rhyme, homes
Are they mad? Are they daft?
Can they not do the math?
Rule three: if you fall off, make a comeback
I don't know if he's a Pitbull or a Staff'
I just know I would send him in first to go and catch man in a bath
[Verse 6]
Are they mad? Are they daft?
Can they not see the stats?
Rule four: go legit once you've finished in the trap
And the roads are a lie and a blag
In the '90s there was money to be made, but they're never coming back
I'm not tryin' to be boisterous
I'm in Dubai, in a top restaurant with tabasco on my oysters
Had to take a vacation
The money's pointless if it can't switch the noise off
[Verse 7]
They lied 'bout me in an interview
But it's okay 'cause they've not really said it till they said it to your face
And them man are not man enough to put me in my place
So I just let them have their say, uh, I'm so responsible
I was in the dock, looking at the chief constable
We all know time in a cell's non-refundable
I'm walking 'round the mall with a man holding my bags
And the sofa in Dior got me feeling so comfortable
Levels to this shit, levels to this shit
I'm Cristiano, I started on the pitch
Like Marciano I wear gloves
But we pedal everywhere, so I really had to break 'em in
One night in Salford I had to iron a man out
And if you don't believe me, ask Chrissy Korkovich
R.I.P. Jared, that's a Manchester soldier that should have lived
Damn! I hate to reminisce
[Verse 8]
Shit get messy when you're from the roads
A man killed his own baby, caught a sentence like a common cold
And now they say that he's a schizophrenic
They forget we wore masks way before the pandemic
Rule number five: turn your pain into drive
Rule number six: only get into the mix
If they're trying to escape from the bottom and get rich
If they're tryna go back to jail, give them man a miss
[Verse 9]
Life's different when you're infamous
What does that mean?
It means a lot when you came up serving crack fiends
I've seen a lot
Yeah, I came up around them bandits
If you've never seen a jail cell, you wouldn't understand it
Had to leave 'em, they was envious
It's like Armageddon when you start off at the bottom and you're tryna get to Heaven
(5ive Music) Rule number seven: you should never settle
(SoundToYourMind) Aim for the skies or keep dancing with devil
