Little Q, Pt. 2 Lyrics

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la

Grew up in the south side of that River Thames
Hard to think outside the box when you're stuck in the ends
I had dreams of many things as a youngin
I was 14 when the streets offered tough lovin'
Older brother went to jail, daddy weren't around
No choice now, but to be the man in the house

If you're talkin' role models, nowhere to be seen
You can't fathom what I think 'til you been where I been
PTSD from the roads, trouble was everywhere that I looked
Hard to avoid it, even if I just kept my head in my books
There ain't no easy way out, drownin' internally
When you're stuck in an ocean of doubt with all this uncertainty

Lived bein' angry my whole life like it's part of my DNA
I couldn't tell you why it became somethin' that we embraced
Then we take that same anger, and turn it into someone else's pain
Nothin's changed here, the cycle still remains

Mama told me my sun will shine
We don't decide everything in God's time
And when mama told me, I prayed to God
To walk with me, my journey's begun
See, my mama told me my sun will shine
We don't decide everything in God's time
And when mama told me, I knew that I
Was strong inside, but we all cry sometimes

Shit changed when I had a brief encounter with death
Thought the pearly gates opened when that knife was in my chest
Not the mental scars, the physical's all you see
But the boy that stabbed me is just as damaged as me

I could have been the reflection that he hated
The part of him he wishes God did not waste time creatin'
The broken homes in which we're comin' from, but who's the blame when
You're dealt the same cards from the system you're enslaved in? It's fuckin' mayhem

Imagine bein' in a hospital, wired up to the machines
They told me I had been in a coma for two weeks
But time is an illusion, my mind told me I'm invincible
But my body reminded me I'm human

When you're so close to the heavens, God shows you who's there
Nowhere to be seen are the people who said they care
This must've been written for people who came to read it
'Cause life gave me a second chance, and many never see it, Q

Ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la (we eat from a tree full of forbidden fruits)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la (not about what you see but what lives in the wound)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la (we eat from a tree full of forbidden fruits)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la (we all know we real criminals live in the suit)

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la) like the sun in the sky
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la) spread your wings, fly
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la) we're goin' high
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la) we all know we real criminals live in the suit
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la (like the sun in the sky)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la (spread your wings, fly)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la (we're goin' high)

like the sun in the sky
Spread your wings, fly
We're goin' high
Like the sun in the sky
Spread your wings, fly
We're goin' high
