[Verse 1: Avelino]
Made a lot of noise being silent
They labelled me remote, now I'm being scouted by Island
Beg you warner brother, I'm universal its timing
I've got way to much to decide for, for any cypher
I'm tryna be so much greater than good, for the greater good
I Feel like Nas, all I need is one mic, made you look
I've got hood neighbours that ain't never left my neighbourhood
Had to burn bridges to make a profit, like moses there ain't no bush
Independence with a major push is ideal
I'm from T and that's real, i'm done trying to define trill
I should get all of my ex's watches because time heals
I'm with a new ting in the yard, on some Netflix and why chill?
Why beat around the bush, what you ain't shaved baby?
Put you on invasion alert, I think I'm Jaykae
The plan was to change the game & never let the game change me
So its not strings attached until wireless Main-stage me
Yeah, like flee said can't you hear the difference?
I'm in cavalli & trues but thats just religion
Every time I made you pay attention I was worth the listen
My ting consists of content thats what you call consistent
Yeah, ignorance has never been as bliss as now
I wondered why I never got a look in when I listened out
The maddest thing is being yourself's what makes you different now
But pay me no mind & I won't need it because i think aloud
Sometimes 1000 words are worth a picture
Ignore the fact that i'm an artist thats why I'm on insta
Hardwork breeds success & although i'm in labour with
Ima need a midwife, there's so much pressure to deliver, but i'll deliver
It's about time that I had mine
Went from trap lines to captivating you with lyrics, thats a trap line
Where i'm from there ain't no helping hands, just gang signs
Holy water flows when you hear bap, that's short for baptise
I want my name in lights, not in a list
Name a pair or rappers that can walk in our Rizzle kicks
2016 is the rise of the lyricist
Young Fire, Old Flame...

[Verse 2: Wretch 32]
Lately death's been getting ever so close
Been feeling spirits while I'm driving, I should get me a ghost
Growing up didn't know the difference between the road and my home
Now I'm grown, I'm trying to buy every home on my road
Take-a-away's been over-rinsed, I need a chef to come and live with me
Last time I picked up a pot, I nearly killed a fiend
I don't see a potent rapper out here that can mirror me
When I gave my kidneys to these kids, you must be kidding me
Do you remember playing Operation? That's how I feel about these compilations
Think they're the next Dr. Dre until they lose their patience
Saying the games in a state, man, that's an understatement
I'm mean, how much more gems can I drop on the future?
How much of my fans might just not buy my new stuff?
We've all got bars but nobody here's a brewer
I'm bringing a sandwich to the beach in the hope of finding a tuna
This is nonsense, past tense
I'm a rap genius, I've passed sense
So if you ain't got a 2-1 and you ain't 3-2
you've gotta graduate before you pass Wretch
We got off on the wrong foot because you half-step
Meanwhile I'm getting restless because I can't rest
21 hours I'm awake the other 3
I'm in a daze writing what to say with my last breath
Can you not hear the difference?
Even when it's in your system
Every time I flipped the script I got a scripture
I've seen man go from the strip to the strip club
I'm trying to go from eating rich tea, to the rich club
I used to want to go from the bitch to the brits, cuz
And then I realised that it's a fix when your skin's dark
Should I do a Kanye and keep it trilla?
Fuck that, even when I lose I'm the winner
I'm the people's champ, let me thank the people
Who never got the point until they grabbed the needle
Niggas tried to minus my pluses just to divide my people
You go from stepping on roaches to stepping by the Beatles
It's progression at it's finest,
they say my weakness is kindness I kill them with success,
because it's timeless
Every verse is a verse from the chapter of writing
The writing's on the wall we known who destiny's child is
Uh, King Kendrick or Jermaine Cole?
Or are you saying King Wretch'ed or Jermaine's cold?
I'm trying to lay the Blueprint and give you Reasonable Doubt
So when you Watch the Throne they can see me Change Clothes
Hang on, wait, you best believe that I'm a general
Cos one of us has gotta compete at all the festivals
And I've been out here rapping for free
But before my testicles drop, man, I'm so credible I'm incredible
They say a promise is a comfort to a fool
I'm lying if I say I want to live in comfort I'm the truth
And this'll be the best Fire In The Booth
And I doubt they'll tell you different when I'm standing in the room
Boy, different class, sometimes you have to ask
Do you want to be the best in your country or your school?
In a country full of rules
Where we're selling lollipops to keep them sucking on our balls
It's survival of the fittest so I'm Mo Farah
I'm black as Akon trying to find my own gaga
The less mercy you show, could leave you merciless alone
But I'm yard grown so I'm taking no bad ups
And Tidal's got the whole world moving crazy
It's like they'd rather free Spotify playlist
That's messed up like the cops on the day shift
Who just can't stop and searching without tasing
Shit seems shocking when you're reading about it
6 years old they was raiding my house, shit
Trying to find my uncle, didn't open my mouth, shit
My dad might of killed me, no snitching on our ship
The Titanic ain't going down because of me
See I can't swim, but I'll be the anchor for the scene
See how did they expect musicians to stay afloat?
When all our sales keep going down a stream
