lyrics

(Verse 1)

You can’t reach your dreams with no sleep
Follow that stream that’s seeming so deep,
It’s tough when it all costs P’s
I don’t have a job no my job has me so I -
Write until my soul can’t speak,
Eyes on the prize but I don’t find peace
So I take it -
One day at a time.
Mum and Dad,
I’m gonna be fine
I hit a couple lows so I went and got high.

(Bridge)

I know that the risks aren’t fair
Everyone hopes that the kids don’t hear but,
The kids know more than we think -
Raising the sail in a boat that is sinking.
I won’t stand with my nose in sink,
Maybe I’m scared but I know what I’m thinking.
And I know the truth is a lie,
And I don’t want that so I’m chasing to fight.
We do what we chose with our lives,
Chose the recluse or the view from up high!

(Verse 1 Pt. II)

Dreams are achieved and love is about peace,
Dreams were relief when love could have drowned me.
Now I dream of setting a crowd free
Forgetting about love but it came and found me.
I see ghosts, visions of the past
Reminiscing is imprisoned when it lasts,
You just need to rehabilitate your heart
You can’t find light if you’re living in the dark
And it’s simple:
Money kills dreams.
Money can’t talk so your money won’t speak.
I’ll walk until I’m running this scene
Sharing these thoughts that have never been free.
If your ears weren’t here I would never be free
Would I ever be me?
Would I ever find peace like I do now.
I’m grateful for every single verse that i spewed out
I carefully search for the words that I spew now.

about

natestapes London, UK

My dreams and ambitions have led me here, aged 20, I'm now looking to jump start my music career.
Rap is more than a craft or a job to me. It brings my emotions to life and I feel myself live through it. I hope I can convey this in my songs.
I'm always looking for ways to improve, increasing the possible outcomes of my work tenfold.
My feet are, and always will be firmly planted on the ground. ... more
