Lyrics
Spoken Intro
Yo, it’s been a minute since I spoke on a beat like this…
You know that late-night, lookin’-out-the-window type pain, yeah?
But don’t get it twisted—still me, still cold, still cheeky with it.
Let’s go—

I See You Made This
Verse 1
Tryna box these demons, got me shadow fightin’ air
I don’t even trust the mirror, man, I glare at my own stare
Keep it tucked beneath the belt like it’s part of the Montclair
I ain’t reachin' out for help—I just climb the fuckin’ stairs
Now it’s paint stains on Amiris
Blood, sweat, and drip—got trauma in my series
See the feds yell "freeze," I ain't even feel feary
I just posed for the cam, man I made it look eerie
She saw me cheffin’ now she tryna be my lunch date
Told her “Chill, babes—I still eat noodles off the one plate”
She shaped like a 10, but she think like a complaint
Locked me off ‘cause I linked her mate by some dumb fate
I’m six-two, tryna fly before I lay deep
Fourteen in the van, no gang—just a dream team
I write it raw, no pen—just the pain stream
She took the lot, smiled cheeky—said "buffet vibes," no mainstream
Chorus
She from the bits, got fake Chanays, she probably danced for it
He got a watch and got a chain, he probably scammed for it
Everybody round me grafted, yeah, we planned for it
Can't show off your new shoes—they’ll get snatched for it
I know some bruddas in and out, still doin’ laps
I chose a route, made Mumsy smile, now I count these stacks
My little bro tryna be like me, I’m tryna pull him back
This ain’t the soil I want to see him sproutin’ at
Verse 2
Fly boy, still got baggage that I won’t check
Came late into the game and started cleanin’ up the whole mess
Used to wait for crumbs, now I’m feastin’ like it’s no stress
Still ain’t got a Benz, but my tracks doin’ road, yes
Had to grow wings, now I’m hoverin’ like drones
Some man plastic—talkin’ ‘bout gums but they foam
Did this in one take, barely touched the microphone
This what it takes if you wanna leave the broken home
Drawin' pictures in my head that you can't trace
You was all smiles ‘til they pulled up, now it’s blank face
Said my name? That's cute—didn’t know you liked taste
Didn’t know you’d fold like laundry on a light day
Chorus
She from the bits, got fake Chanays, she probably danced for it
He got a watch and got a chain, he probably scammed for it
Everybody round me grafted, yeah, we planned for it
Can't show off your new shoes—they’ll get snatched for it
I know some bruddas in and out, still doin’ laps
I chose a route, made Mumsy smile, now I count these stacks
My little bro tryna be like me, I’m tryna pull him back
This ain’t the soil I want to see him sproutin’ at
Verse 3
I pray that time sprints
Used to share box meals and now we talkin’ side hints
Still got my creps from Year 9 with a slight rinse
Streets cold—prayin' five times just to fight sins
Heart gone grayscale, no filter
We was posted on the stairs like a bored babysitter
Four pipes on the whip, now it growl like a critter
VVS so bright it could outshine your Twitter
This that pain with a smirk, real talk with a giggle
Got trauma and jokes, both packed in the middle
Might flex in silence, let the wins do the wiggle
'Cause too much flash’ll get you robbed by a pickle (don’t ask)
Chorus + Outro
She from the bits, got fake Chanays, she probably danced for it
He got a watch and got a chain, he probably scammed for it
Everybody round me grafted, yeah, we planned for it
Can't show off your new shoes—they’ll get snatched for it
I know some bruddas in and out, still doin’ laps
I chose a route, made Mumsy smile, now I count these stacks
My little bro tryna be like me, I’m tryna pull him back
This ain’t the soil I want to see him sproutin’ at
(Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah)
(Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah)
Still me, still here, just a bit more grown
Still laugh at pain, still write it in stone
Still got heart, even when I’m alone
Now run that back, before it’s gone
END
End
