"Cherries" lyrics
Cool, steady
Grab your things get ready
One year's gone since twenty
Wrote this verse so long ago but I brought it back because it still sounds heavy
Don't go gym but don't watch telly
Can anybody test with this? not any
I used to do paper rounds in Cherries
You can ask Paige and you can ask Ellie
Gave me a bag of papers I turned around and said 'boss why so many?'
Nobody else's bag's this heavy
Nobody else's bag's this heavy
I was about 14 years old so young but still won't work for pennies
When I'm on the ball I'm techy
Thinking about what's - switch
Used to sell cans of cokes and crisps
Just trying to get ten quid
I could go Chinese shop at lunch time and get the whole team chips
School was jokes but shit
Girls looked down on smoking spliffs
Now when I see them out I look in their eyes like 'that's not piff'
Look in their nose like 'that's not this'
Oh what a shame you've gone to shit
I guess what I'm trying to sing is don't let nobody tell you things
That they don't know themselves that's it
Not anything too long that's it
Know yourself and learn it quick
Don't judge me, I do my bits
Thinking about what's next
I'm in the ends
When I think 'bout things back then
I wanna think bout things not stress
I wanna think bout things not stress
Family problems never been blessed
Since about 15 been next
Since about 15 since then
Been thinking about since we been friends
Now your life's in check
Been told that you might die that's dead
I just wanna go home lie in bed
Not think about death but life instead
If you go to the sky will the sky turn red
Don't wanna think like that but that's just life ahead I think it's
Pain
No sunshine just clouds and rain
Don't wanna see that in my future
I wanna sit on the beach and glaze
You wanna sit in your room and blaze
Oh what a shame
Whole weeks gone to waste
Guess its just one of them days
Guess that you're just one of them breys
Don't get me wrong I smoke but still get mine and still get paid
Thinking about so much sometimes I need to change
But let's go 4 years back walking about one night in Slade
Dig in my pockets and just feel change
Then I went home so vexed and practiced bars all night and day
Now if you wanna book me then show no less than half a K
Do six shows a month then that's more P than the average wage
Guess what I'm trying to say is don't let anybody tell you grades and uni, is the only way
I planned this in my bedroom you was in a class with wastes
If that's your thing then do that I can't lie that's great
I just needed to do mine too that's all I'm saying
Literally all I'm saying
Grab your things get ready
One year's gone since twenty
Wrote this verse so long ago but I brought it back because it still sounds heavy
Don't go gym but don't watch telly
Can anybody test with this? not any

Nobody else's bag's this heavy
Nobody else's bag's this heavy
