Looks like i'm loosin friends 

There's a lot of hostility in my endz 

We used 2 argue, always make other new friends 

Now we settle disagreements with the skenz 

Looks like i'm loosin mates 

There's a lot of hostility near my gates 

We used 2 fight wid kids 4rm other estates 

Now 8 millimetres settle debates 

Looks like i'm loosin sight 

Coz i'm lookin at the future, it ain't right 

So i look out my window, pray every night 

I thank God 4 my friends but they ain't tight 

Looks like i'm loosin hope 

Coz i climbed dis mountain widout rope 

But i know i'm the captain of my boat 

So i steadily sail and hope not 2 float 





But its a Brand New Day 

New opportunities, wot can i say 

I plan 2 make my pay 

But put sum away 4 an offkey day - 

Demand, collect, cash upfront and direct 

Pay money, pay respect, don't insult my intellect 





When we ain't kids no more 

Will it still be about wot it is rite now 

Like fightin 4 anything, anytime 

And actin widout a care anywhere 

When we ain't kids no more 

Will it still be about wot is rite now 

Like backscams, street robbery 

Shottas, plottas or HMP 

When we ain't kids no more 

Will it still be about wot it is rite now 

Pregnant girls who think they luv 

Useless mans wid no plans 

When we ain't kids no more 

Will it still be about wot it is rite now 

Coz negative signs jus keep showin up 

Sum of us betta jus start growin up 





But its a Brand New Day

When i look at my life i can't help but think 

Coz i could hav resorted 2 drugs and drink 

Everyday was the same as the day b4 

We were neva quite sure of wots in store 

Everyday i wke up i can't help but feel 

I'm certain of life, i mean dis is real 

Mouthfuls skippin round my head like dancers 

I know its wrong 2 question but i need answers 

Da whos, da wots, da hows, da whens, da whys 

U can look in my face, u c da pain in my eyes 

Tears ready 2 fall like the rain in the skies 

But i hope dat i put my feet down and rise 

Coz guys wanna test my words 

So i can't jus cater 4 2nd and 3rd 

Plus i know predators only go 4 the weak 

And dats long so i gotta stay strong 

Get me !
