We're All Alone

[00:28.38] I remember when I used to be innocent, ain't shit changed
[00:31.71] I'm a young black belligerent
[00:33.25] Child of an immigrant, lifestyle frivolous
[00:36.22] 'Round here we keep bad company cah them people pay dividends
[00:39.91] What's the point of bein' rich when your family ain't?
[00:42.26] It's like flyin' first class on a crashin' plane
[00:45.06] Dinners with the same niggas, just higher bills
[00:47.35] And all the models Himalayan, they got higher heels
[00:50.89]
[00:52.91] We're all alone in this together, right?
[00:56.77] (Quiet on set, places everybody)
[01:00.92]
[01:02.92] You know the seats in the Aston red leather, like
[01:07.59] (And action) yeah
[01:10.03] I had dreams of doin' architecture
[01:12.12] Or sittin' through a Harvard lecture
[01:13.48] How the fuck I end up bein' Harvey Specter?
[01:15.89] Young black art collector, I could take the pressure
[01:18.20] Had the scales, now suits that come made to measure
[01:20.81] I drew the thin line between love and hate
[01:23.02] Double date, what you drinkin'? Let me cut the games
[01:25.92] Backstabbin' man, I'd rather that you cut my face
[01:28.20] If I ain't charmin' to women, it's all the fuckin' snakes
[01:31.19] You idolize the girl, there's no way I wife her
[01:33.46] She only fucks with rich niggas, that's the way I like it
[01:35.96] I can't fabricate the truth, it's just the way I write it
[01:38.44] You got points on your creative license
[01:40.61] Ask Rapz, that's a criminal graduatin' in civil law
[01:43.47] Nothin' ain't civil 'bout the Civil War
[01:45.31] Grip a four, Gryffindor, this'll have you lyin' on your chest
[01:48.32] I got 99 marks, I wasn't tryin' on my test
[01:50.84] I'm blessed (why?)
[01:52.44] Because the pasta is gamberoni, the watch is a classic Rollie
[01:55.21] The pussy is sacred, it's holy, like matrimony
[01:57.85] I'm payin' the alimony to numb all the acrimony
[02:00.28] The flight is to Santorini, the car is a Lamborghini
[02:03.13] The cheese, the cheddar, the mozzarella, the fettuccini the only aim
[02:06.66] Look at my ego in the daily life
[02:08.46] You see what happens when you got the fuckin' game in a vice
[02:11.09] We're all alone
[02:13.84]
[02:32.62] I got a message from a kid on Sunday mornin'
[02:34.66] Said he don't know what to do
[02:35.67] And that he's thinkin' of killin' himself
[02:38.15] Me and him got more in common than he thinks
[02:39.76] But I tell him to see a shrink, so I can go on and live with myself
[02:43.50] I knew that my life was a film
[02:45.17] From when I had to share a bed with my mum and I was pissin' myself
[02:48.73] I just want my flowers while I'm here
[02:50.10] So I can put them at the front of the grave
[02:52.07] That I've been diggin' myself
[02:54.05] I grew up in a two-bed flat with seven people livin' with me
[02:56.92] You don't know what I did for myself
[02:59.10] My mum's the one that gave me opportunities
[03:00.95] And put me in positions that I couldn't have pictured myself
[03:04.31] We're from Nigeria, Benin City, Sin City
[03:07.07] Don't know what it's like? Take a trip for yourself
[03:09.41] Poverty's killin' us, the government's killin' us
[03:12.06] If they ain't killin' us, then we're killin' ourselves
[03:14.48] I would die for the niggas I love
[03:16.29] My life's full of plotholes, and I'm fillin' 'em up
[03:19.67] I told mummy, "I ain't nothin' like my father"
[03:21.60] I'ma show her there's a different definition to love
[03:24.63] I tell my fans we're all alone in this together
[03:26.71] You can trust me
[03:27.51] All the shit you been feelin', you're feelin' with me
[03:29.98] We all the took the wrong turns in different streets
[03:32.50] We all cry the same tears on different cheeks
[03:35.15] I got a message from a kid on Monday mornin'
[03:37.15] Said he's grateful I responded and he's feelin' at peace with himself
[03:40.45] Me and him got more in common than he thinks
[03:42.35] But I tell him it's nothin' big, so I can go on and live with myself
[03:45.88] I knew that God would cast me as the leader
[03:47.62] Somethin' special when he messaged me and told me that I saved his life
[03:51.12] In 23 years, I done so much wrong
[03:53.53] But in that moment, I just felt like I had made it right
[03:56.98] (Hey Dave, it's Mollie Cowen)
[03:59.53] (Um, we sent to you a, um, movie)
[04:03.90] (An NDA to sign, um, in an e-mail and also by DocuSign)
[04:09.22] (For, um, a movie called... um, which... is directing with...)
[04:17.53] (Nina Gold is casting)
[04:19.68] (Ehm, there's very little info that we have)
[04:22.57] (But, um)
[04:23.65] (I think we definitely want to put our hat in the ring for and go for)
[04:28.30] (If there is a way in which you could do a take out there)
[04:31.23] (Please have a look and get back right away, thanks, bye)
[04:33.30]
