Who Am I

Right Time

Right time (Prod.burnymadeit)

Operating, like I'm still eighteen,
I been operating like I'm still a teen,
Kingston bars with Haks and Eugene,
Those days we raved with great tings,


Major danger in living in the past,
Realization hit, old me faded fast,
Casting Idris to play me, watch the scene,
Repercussions, yeah, I can only blame me,

Eighteen, South London boy with a dream,
With a team, but we split, chasing better things,
University life, grants and bursaries,
Watching my niece, that’s a major win, see?

Tailored sins, a closet full of past,
Atmosphere dark, these shadows gotta clash,
Coming to terms with the laughs and the jabs,
Placed at the back while these youngins just stab,


Operating, like I'm still eighteen,
I been operating like I'm still a teen,
Kingston bars with Haks and Eugene,
Those days we raved with great tings,


Advanced the age, but I’m still chasin’ dreams,
P’s from the pain built within, it seems,
Disengaged from the grind, lost in the wheel,
Doubted my skills, shit, how does it feel?

Disregarded the till, coping mechanisms still,
Operating, like I’m sippin’ on that thrill,
Can’t travel back, but wanna ride this saddle,
Mind’s muddled, life brings the damn battle,


Reminiscing bars, where we did them doubles,
Grown now, no cuddles, just a life full of troubles,
Strugglin’ to eat while gettin’ berated,
[This corporate hustle got me feelin' so jaded,]


Operating, like I'm still eighteen,
I been operating like I'm still a teen,
Kingston bars with Haks and Eugene,
Those days we raved with great tings,


Gotta shake the past, no time for the toss,
Future’s waitin’, can’t afford to get lost,
So I hustle hard, like a motherfucka, see?
Living in my truth, 'cause I’m still me,
[Still eighteen vibes, yeah, that’s the scheme.]

The Jacksons

[Gbenga]
Yo, breaking the curse, little space for the purse,
It's a purge, all my ni**as wanna surge,
Seems like your actions rehearsed,
But those actions gon' lead you to the hearse,

Only speak the truth, girl, it’s true,
If only you had a clue 'bout my life outside the booth,
The sound of success, so sweet,
Last year you could’ve found me out on Gwendolen Street,

One day you’ll want me, but I’ll be long gone,
I just pray that you’re in it for the long haul,
I didn’t want to end this way, Baby I’m sorry,
But stay strong, babygirl, and please don’t worry, x2

Feelings cascade through the day shift,
Down to the basics, I was patient, let’s say this,
But I was gone, would you even care?
Takes a lot these days for one to shed a tear,

He departed swiftly, but did you even know him?
Things you could’ve shown him, now you’re down lonely,
How dare you rub your hands on this beloved trophy?
The victory, the accolades, the one and only,

One day you’ll want me, but I’ll be long gone,
I just pray that you’re in it for the long haul,
I didn’t want to end this way, baby I’m sorry,
But stay strong, babygirl, and please don’t worry, x2

[Jordan]
Yeah, 
I stress acceptance in these verses I deliver 
Cuz how could what feels right go to the left like broke calipers 
I had you by my side but you were gone before the winter 
Wrote a letter and you cried in the arms of another nigga 
Took some time to put my pieces back together 
And still I found a way to support all of your endeavors 
Even when it made no sense to me I looked at you like treasure 
Tho you were never mine I hoped one day I’d have the pleasure
But as the years went by you weren’t the same as when I met ya 
And that’s to be expected I been changing for the better 
Through the pain I’ve learned that discipline is calming under pressure 
One day my name will start to live on longer than forever 
You could’ve been a part of that instead you chose to sever any chance of reconciling with a man who’s been there for you 4 Novembers 
That’s all you get I should’ve gave you less but it’s whatever 
Don’t hold your breathe for me cuz I’ll be justified to - let ya

The Future Was Disappointing (feat. Jordan)

Yo, I’m one of real ones left, a beat generational curse,
But some few ones deaf, yet I remain blessed,
Grandmother was the head of church,
Lost in a generational search for greatness,
Statements never relayed at the station,

Cold winter nights, cats and mice in rotation,
Maybe should’ve gone exec, took my father’s advice,
Stew with the rice, yeah, daily living life,
I'm talking basics, does this shit even make sense?

Circle got smaller, now just a few ones left,
War our crew, do you want death? Or are you on meth?
Chess moves in this game, not checkers,
Beat the odds, now don’t owe debtors,

Couple weeks back, I was in the diamond district,
Beat the odds: the statistics,
Sadistic thinkin’ that you assisted,
Restricted to gifts, just Christmas wishes,

I listen back to my raps, pure motivation,
Victory lap, this a fucking celebration,
Beat the odds, the scholars provided us with education,
Give praise to God, music's my occupation,

Generational curse turned to blessings all around,
Obsessive with these writtens, watch the wealth compound,
Provide for the kids, laughter to surround,
The image that I crafted, can’t be shot down,

Mastered the art, attachments on lock,
Set straight these bastards, no masquerade on the block,
This a mass parade, beat the odds like my ancestors,
Slaves to the crown, now we rebels, no stressors,

Age of deliverance, crafted images so vivid,
Doubt still creeps from the fam, they don't get it,
Diagnosed with psychosis, bipolar disorder,
But I’m givin’ out orders, fuck the doctors' border,

Do this for my unborn, my sons and my daughters,
When they hear this shit I made, proud as they oughta,
Income received, passing through hands of thieves,
But a fraction of the pie, still I’m breaking the leaves,

Action been released, celebration in the heath,
Education for the children that are trying to believe,
Just a piece from their masterpiece,
Now watch me feast, this fire won’t cease.

Chasing dreams hard, can’t accept defeat,
Blessings in the shadows, yeah, they creeping,
Power up my mind, ain't no time for weeping.

Anticipating fortune, I'm aiming for the sky,
Blood diamonds glistening, ain't no lie,
Success I desire, yeah, I’m on that track,
Triple doubles on my sheet, no looking back.

Success driven, bitch, I’m here to climb,
Hypnotized masses, they don’t see the grind,
But I’m getting blessed with extra Christ, let’s unwind.

Dark Sky Paradise [Demo]

Gave you the lotus, now you’re rocking the boat,
Our love filled with arguments, but damn, we had hope.
Planted the seed, I handed you the oak,
Our love was dope, now it’s guns, roses and smoke.

Feeling like Shakespeare, writing rhymes for my queen,
But you upped and left, now I'm lost in this scene.
Grieving like a motherfucker, heart torn at the seam,
You took flight to South America, living a dream.

Reaching out seems futile, trying to defuse time,
Can we rewind the clock, make our night sublime?
Couple shots of bourbon, reminiscing the highs,
But baby, that evening, I saw the pain in your eyes.

Gave you the lotus, now you’re rocking the boat,
Arguments swirling, our love's a tightrope.
You cried, I died, tryna find what's right,
But you're the one leaving, while I'm losing this fight.

Queen of thieves, you stole my damn heart,
Barely breathing, this was supposed to be art.
But now we're apart, trapped in this tragedy,
No casualties, but damn, the pain’s a reality.

Sending my regards, rose in a vase,
Feeling like I'm on Mars, while you’re lost in space.
Thought we were genius, but we’re both wrong,
It was doomed from the start, our love was too strong.

Gave you the lotus, now you’re rocking the boat,
Our love, once fire, now it's drowning in smoke.
What happened to us? We were stars in the night,
Now I'm here mourning, while you’re taking flight.

Take care, but damn, no morning light,
You called it boring, but I'm feeling the fright.
Good morning, I’m mourning, while you’re snoring,
Lost in this heartbreak, my soul is exploring.

Gave you the lotus, now you’re rocking the boat,
Our love filled with arguments, but damn, we had hope.

Like a Melody

Another truly original collaboration between Darrell P and Frank Zozky. Huge influences from Jermain Dupri, Jagged Edge and 112. Musically flawless in every way, like the one that got away but looks even better every time you see  her.

Another Time

Yo, you’re all I ever needed, all I ever wanted,
Had you by my side, but now I feel haunted.
I had you, but I lost you, karma’s deceiving,
Ain't grieving 'cause you're still alive, I'm still believing.

Father figure, something special, something sacred,
Lost in the smoke, man, I feel forsaken.
Love in my heart, ain’t no room for no hatred,
But now this bond, it’s been faded.

Same color eyes, I know you’re proud somewhere,
Could you shed one tear, or are you content, my 
Up left, then went, deep down, want you to repent,
Moments we spent, now they’re gone, like a bad scent.

You’re all I ever needed, all I ever wanted,
Had you close, now my heart’s just haunted.
I had you, but I lost you, where’s the sense in that?
Thoughts of you echo, like a ghost in my flat.

I’m older now, learned that shit don’t last,
Your leadership’s a treasure, now it’s buried in the past.
Heavy heart, heavy hand, you stayed protective,
But who elected to leave? That was your directive.

You were there from the start, now it’s a different end,
Father, preacher, you were even a friend.
Can’t lie, I’m distraught, can’t pretend,
Fighting with these feelings, man, I just can’t bend.
