[Verse 1]
I need to get richer to show my sister that pain is game
Because one day we could just wake up and then life ain’t the same
Now the rain is getting thinner, the pockets are filling and
Dinner at all the restaurants, we can get what the fuck we want
See this mindset of mine stepped out
Kept playing it blind gets my finance down
Shift, set it to fine tune
Get in the right mood
I aim to show her she can take the world just like I do
But lately I’ve been failing advice
I’m telling her twice
She listening
Ending the call
Reflecting it back, I’m crippling
Turning it round
Cuz if it’s not now
It’s sickening
I’m sicker right now, than ever before
Keep listening
I aim to get my music to the masses
Keep it level headed
This is just a business
I can’t waste my talent
But on the flip side you see this is my passion
Every waking day I’m making moves and it affects my patterns
Aiming for the ears of other people and I get reactions
Guess I’m bout to get it, show my sister how success can happen
We working to the motive that was written
Laid on it on the riddim
Keep it safe, but never hidden
Not a stranger to this kitten
Cuz loads of cats have tried it
Can’t deny, I wipe my eyes a couple times
But I survived just listen
Sometimes I feel alone when I map out my vision
But I’m just scared of what they say if I make bad decisions
I’m reaching for the stars and any less is not success
Cuz I can’t see this failing, if I stay true to my name
And don’t let fame. adjust my sense
I’m educated, never penetrating my defence
I’m legislated, people getting paid at my expense
I’m careful with my company
Distant from the others
That’s why nobody can come for me
I’m tryna make her see that happiness
Should come from something deep
Rooted in her comfortably
And nobody can come and take away
From what she wants to be
Wish we could sit down and talk it through with Mom
But properly
Taking turns to speak and listening so we can squash the beef
Life’s too short for conflict see
The only ones around you when you’re truly down
And try to get on top of these priorities
Is us
And hopefully you see the others riding off your buzz
They bring you down

(Karis Jade)
When the lights turn on
And it’s my turn to shut it down
My name gets heard
Promise that you will stick around me
Promise that you will stick around me
When the lights turn on
And it’s my turn to shut it down
My name gets heard
Promise that you will stick around me
Promise that you will stick around me
