Uh, it’s lonely at the top, lot of people are watchin’ and want me to flop
– Uh, li se pou kont li nan tèt la, anpil moun ap gade ‘epi yo vle m’ flop
I’m tellin’ the kids, if I can do it then anyone can, cah I came from nothin’
– Mwen di timoun yo, si mwen ka fè l ‘ lè sa a nenpòt moun ka, cah mwen te soti nan anyen
One stop and search away from the block
– Yon sèl arè ak rechèch lwen blòk la
In this life, I don’t feel fear, only man that can make me afraid is God, uh
– Nan lavi sa a, mwen pa santi pè, sèl moun ki ka fè m pè Se Bondye, uh
Negative press on the shade room, anythin’ good, it don’t make the blogs
– Negatif laprès sou chanm lonbraj la, anythin ‘ bon, li pa fè blogs yo
They didn’t sit at the table when it was chicken shop
– Yo pa t chita nan tab la lè li te boutik poul
Now it’s steak and lobster edamame and Pan-Asian cod
– Kounye a li se vyann ak omè edamame ak pan-Azyatik cod
My first bedroom smaller than a jail cell, now the crib’s on a ten-acre plot
– Premye chanm mwen pi piti pase yon selil prizon, kounye a kabann lan sou yon konplo dis-acre
First time I committed a crime was petty, I couldn’t afford what the trainers cost
– Premye fwa mwen te komèt yon krim te piti, mwen pa t ‘ kapab peye sa antrenè yo koute
First time I sold crack, I was just sixteen, witnessin’ that at that age was wrong
– Premye fwa mwen vann krak, mwen te jis sèz, temwen ke nan laj sa a te mal
Detached myself from every emotion, hopin’ I’ll get my paper long
– Detache tèt mwen de tout emosyon, espere mwen pral jwenn papye mwen long
One brick phone, one iPhone, no SIM, listenin’ to the same old song
– Yon telefòn brik, yon iPhone, pa GEN SIM, koute menm chante a fin vye granmoun
I’m jumpin’ the barriers, if the inspector get on the train, I’m gone
– Mwen ap sote baryè yo, si enspektè a jwenn sou tren an, mwen ale
Now the whip that I’m in’s an impatient one, put my foot on the gas when the light goes amber
– Kounye a baton an ke mwen nan se yon enpasyan, mete pye m ‘ sou gaz la lè limyè a ale amber
Try touch me and guns will shoot, we don’t do kung fu and fight like Panda
– Eseye manyen m ‘ ak zam pral tire, nou pa fè kung fu ak goumen tankou Panda
My guy’s a convicted criminal, so he gotta hide from cameras
– Gason mwen an se yon kriminèl kondane, se konsa li gen kache nan kamera
All of my bitches pretty as hell, I can start up a beauty pageant
– Tout ti fi mwen yo bèl tankou lanfè, mwen ka kòmanse yon konkou bote
How’d I end up all the way in Clapham, I started my day in NW2
– Ki jan mwen te fini tout wout la nan Clapham, mwen te kòmanse jou mwen an NAN NW2
Deliverin’ food direct to your door, you can leave a review like Deliveroo
– Delivre manje dirèkteman nan pòt ou, ou ka kite yon revizyon tankou Deliveroo
Sticks outside for a special occasion, nank on hip that’s everyday shit
– Baton deyò pou yon okazyon espesyal, nank sou heap sa se chak jou shit
Gotta thank God that I never did, dark and light, did sell it in twos
– Dwe di Bondye mèsi ke mwen pa janm te fè, nwa ak limyè, te vann li nan de
Before I got the invite to Mike Rubin’s all-white party, 4th of July
– Anvan mwen te resevwa envitasyon Pou Mike Rubin ‘ s all-white party, 4 jiyè
I was sat in the trap with a pack all night, cocaine fragrance, weren’t dressed in white
– Mwen te chita nan pyèj la ak yon pake tout nwit lan, kokayin parfen, yo pa te abiye an blan
Fifteen minutes away from the shot, but I said that I’d get there in less than five
– Kenz minit lwen piki a, men mwen te di ke mwen ta jwenn la nan mwens pase senk
It gives me the ick when girls come around and try too hard to impress the guys

I sat and I told the Sony exec’, “If you give me a ten for a tape, I’ll sign” (Uh)

Everything’s gonna come to an end, when I counted an M, I was on cloud nine
– Tout bagay pral vini nan yon fen, lè mwen konte Yon M, mwen te sou nwaj nèf
If it weren’t rap, I would’ve been a pimp, I look at a bitch and I see pound signs

Plus one thousand aura, even if I don’t talk, they’ll feel our vibe

Label execs don’t care if we’re murderers long as your catalogue’s bringin’ in revenue
– Egzekitif etikèt pa pran swen si nou se asasen osi lontan ke katalòg ou a ap pote nan revni
They’ll sign you and when you go broke and end up in jail, they’re quick to forget you
– Yo pral siyen ou e lè ou ale kraze epi fini nan prizon, yo rapid pou bliye ou
I can’t worry ’bout album sales, I got serious shit that I’m tryin’ to get through
– Mwen pa ka enkyete sou lavant albòm, mwen te gen bagay serye ke mwen ap eseye jwenn nan
How can they talk down on my name for tryna get paid, I’m playin’ a chess move
– Ki jan yo ka pale desann sou non mwen pou tryna jwenn peye, mwen ap jwe yon mouvman echèk
GTA, I’m usin’ cheat codes, cheat at school in exams, I’m fucked

I cheat on my wife, but how can you blame me? I cheated life

I weren’t supposed to make it this far, I got no grades, I ain’t even wise

Walk down Uxbridge Road, I reckon that one in three of these people high

Supply and demand, that’s how I get by, she tellin’ me how a trap boy’s her type

So many gyal that are wantin’ to fuck, I’m turnin’ them down, they’re wonderin’ why

I’m nonchalant, not shy, my entourage top five, I’m probably one of the—

I came in the scene at an all-time low, I don’t know, but I think I revived the game

Premeditatin’ a graceful exit, in the meantime, I’ll try maintain
