Il Testo della canzone di:
100 Phone Calls – Cadet
[Belle:]
A sunset in Paris
A life that's so careless
Word from the terrace
Watching the sunset in Paris
A sunset in Paris
A life that's so careless
Word from the terrace
Watching the sunset in Paris
[Cadet:]
Aight, look!
So much has changed in the last year and I'm still adjusting
I never felt like a fuckboy but when I look back man I must've been
Cause me I weren't chasing a dream
I was working the nine-to-five for some pricks and like
They couldn't care about me
I was just another person to give a payslip
That 33.3 percent cycle of work, music and doing road but like
Work ain't shit and I can't do road for the rest of my life and I shoulda known because
Me and my boy can do grimey shit
And that night he'd be kipping
But it's like my conscience, it would keep me awake
And that's how I know we different
You see look
Me, I've been around road yutes
And they love talking 'bout road (road)
And me I've been around trap yutes
And they love talking 'bout trap (trap)
And I don't love road like those road yutes
And I can't trap like those trap yutes
Ain't no soft shit, I just know who I am
The same way them niggas can't rap like man
But music I know that I do love so look
I'ma go chase me a dream
I'ma give it everything that I got
If it don't work imma do road, it'll be what it be
Anyway you know the build-up
So now I drop: 'slut' and get a bit of attention
But I ain't used to this Twitter shit
He's teaching me how to reply to mentions
Like don't reply to that chick
Don't reply to that bitch
He's a troll he chat shit
Nah I never knew about this
I just know about bars I just know I wanna spit
But anyway look I'm in my motion
Video after video and shit's going well look I'm in my motion
Giving the game so much emotion, but
They say when you start doing well people start changing
I can have a hundred phone calls, but only one conversation
There's only one road to riches
There's only one way to make it, see
Everybody fame-chasing but
They didn't wanna trade places with me
And now they wanna trade places with me
But I need this and I breathe this me
Yeah this is me
A hundred phone calls but one conversation
Aight, that shit might make no sense, 'aight let me explain
Now everybody wanna question the kid
And them hugs turn into open hands it's like
Ninety-nine phone calls to ask for a favour, one phone call to ask how I am
Now everybody wanna put on events and tell me how I can be the hardest
And wow look
Out of the blue it's mad look, everybody knows how to manage a artist
They talk to me like I'm a business plan
But I don't want this man I need this, my
Backup plan is jail or a dead-end job
I swear to you man I need this and
I ain't in this 'ting just for the money
It's all I got, no funny shit
Like rudeboy this is my life on the line
And my life is not your money flip
So I beg you don't take my 'ting for joke, cuh
My life this 'ting done ain't funny
See I look around and see bare sprinters but
Me I'm trained for the marathon
So of course I'm sticking around
I can't get a nine-to-five doing the deadest shifts
I'll be writing bars all over man's notes
And getting fired for not selling shit
And like now they call me a story-teller
Are you fucking stupid?
Just because I don't tell you lies about trap
Don't mean you can categorise me as that
That ain't 'a' story, that's 'my' story
And this shit it might not be known to you
But a real artist, giving you his honest story, what man is supposed to do
But that ain't even most reckless 'ting:
I be up every night on a restless 'ting, I'm
Really tryna get rid of tickets
But they're phoning me like "Can you get man in?" Oh!
When it's somebody that you know it's a no
But for Bryson Tiller you be waiting by the phone no-show
See I won't complain but know when I buss don't say you supported from before
But know that I'm grateful for every view that I've had
Cause I remember getting a thousand views on YouTube and being gassed
You see, I'm overwhelmed and I'm grateful
But I burnt bridges of the wasteful
Who would snap girls bringing bottles to the table
But they never bring nothing to the table (but)
They say when you start doing well people start changing
I can have a hundred phone calls, but only one conversation
There's only one road to riches
There's only one way to make it, see
Everybody fame-chasing but
They didn't wanna trade places with me
And now they wanna trade places with me
But I need this and I breathe this me
Yeah, yeah this is me (oh yeah)
Maybe I learnt too late
I got a candle that I'm really tryna burn two ways
And now they say I'm not grime man I get it cause don't do shit in a commercial way
And normally if I get nicked I'm like 'calm, just another night in a station'
But the last time I got nicked
I was like 'man I'm fucking up man's situation
Which I can't do, are you dumb?
Only gotta learn once
Because if my words can change the world
Then why the fuck am I biting my tongue
And I swear if you ask me for a pic, word I won't say no
Because I remember being that same yute that you would ask to take the pic on the phone, no shit
Now they're saying that a nigga skilled cause I'm talking 'bout shit that's really real
You see look
They're satisfied if they give you a hook
But I'm satisfied when I give a nigga thrills, no chill
This is what I'm talking about
I get passionate when I'm talking about
My life, see
Music I need this 'ting
And that feeling in your chest, I'm talking about
So, no
I won't go back to the roads them
Getting back to the road
Do another wrong shit for the right reason
But for the right reason, man would get cracked on the road
There's no more kitchen knives in the house
Big red hair in the back of the coat
Grabbing a car and driving past feds
Getting that lump in the back of my throat, so no
I ain't going out like that (I'm Cadet)
I know I ain't born that way
So plan A's to be a fucking legend
And plan B is man's plan A
You see, this is my sunset in Paris
I won't stop until I own the game
Like as much MC's as you want
Me and them yutes we are not the same
Man, I'm different!
They say when you start doing well people start changing
I can have a hundred phone calls, but only one conversation (one conversation)
There's only one road to riches (uh)
There's only one way to make it (one way)
Everybody fame-chasing but
They didn't wanna trade places with me, uh
And now they wanna trade places with me
But I need this and I breathe this, this is me (I need this!)
Yeah this is me, uh
Yeah this is me
