I was so close to the edge
If they could of left me
They would've left me dead
Thought I was buried
But I rose up instead
Talk big but backed everything that I said

Yeah
See they wanted me in a hearse
But I did my best and
Then I withstood their worst
Built up my stamina by chasing Wiley for a verse
Who God bless no man curse
I'm blessed if I'm on this earth
They love when they get you cheap
But they hate when you know your worth
A killer with words
And I'm the definition of a true vet
Cos I've been putting all these dogs down
But I ain't done a fire in the booth yet
Charlie, I'm on the same number
Still the same yard I ain't moved yet
It was me you, Little Dee on 0 10
So tell me what I gotta do next
If you know then you know I'm a lege
Did I kill a mic I don't know it's alleged
Ha no comment

I was so close to the edge
If they could of left me
They would've left me dead
Thought I was buried
But I rose up instead
Talk big but backed everything that I said

I already gave up once
Didn't really take so I gave it up
Came back like ay what's up
Nah nah nah man that ain't enough
New and improved so the pay goes up
Dangerous stuff, indy kid getting major love
Big in the game they didn't want me in
Listen mate you can't make this up
15 years been creating stuff
Deh pon road that's a shameless plug
Jah bless the one like Klashnekoff
And Skinnyman praise and love
Days were tough, nights were hard
But I never lost my patience bruv
Cos if my place ain't at the top right now
Then right now that is not my place then bruv
I'm the creature from beneath the mainstream
I made real life from a day dream
Because day dreams ain't gotta stay dreams
Yeah

I was so close to the edge
If they could of left me
They would've left me dead
Thought I was buried
But I rose up instead
Talk big but backed everything that I said
