MATANGA Lyrics by Ceebo

LAMBETHNOTLA

2024

[Intro]
\n(Woah, Dave)
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI pray that mum ain't watering plants to leave on top of my grave
\nI seen that happen a lot
\nI might get dropped off on the estate
\nYoutdem die, Matanga days
\nOutside passing plates
\nMan's just passing through
\nHope that man's not passing way
\n
\n[Verse 1]
\nI try leadin' a life that's calmer
\nFeels like running from karma
\nAll of the shit I did 'cah my dad had left and I ain't see father
\nTheft and PWITS, money immediate, that's what I craved and mastered
\nThe road to death's way faster
\nKnow me I'm Lambeth's bastard
\nNew Park Road, had a few dark bros on bird or road right now
\nCoulda been brukkin' a O right now
\nWouldn't be spinnin' a flow right now
\nBut a man can't dwell
\nHell, just like the еnds as well
\nBells flying and love gonе stale
\nAny difference I just can't tell
\nI seen it both
\nA man got yinged opposite from the station Tulse
\nMad seein' blood on the spot where you and the bros spent days at most
\nOur CVs far from pristine
\nSixteen, was calm at 16s
\nSame time I was teefin'
\nThere was a fuck-off blade on my darg at fifteen
\nThey say my bars are Sistine
\nI say my past is prickly
\nI'm far from pastor's pickney
\nMe and Ro like Margs and Tricky
\nJust laugh through trauma strictly
\nIf not then I'm barrin' quickly
\nThem days on Jeffreys Road explain this load ah darkness in me
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI pray that mum ain't watering plants to leave on top of my grave
\nI seen that happen a lot
\nI might get dropped off on the estate
\nYoutdem die, Matanga days
\nOutside passing plates
\nI'm just passing through
\nHope that man's not passing way
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nSpoke to my darg I know on the block
\nSaid that his dream is to box
\nBeen injured lots
\nHe almost stopped
\nBut felt it was sent by God
\nHe said to dream is to work till you drop
\nAnd makin' it work when you feel it's not
\nMade me think for a sec 'bout times that I nearly gave up on music drops
\n'Cah really I'm still just the anxious yout
\nThat seen his pops in a psych ward
\nMan hear my tunes don't hear my pain
\nThe fuck am I still on the mic for
\nThe roses bloom and outlive
\nAll of the dreams that the youts done died for
\nCan't lie I cry then I write more
\nFeels like that death's on my door
\nEvery time I leave I feel so trapped in the ends that stole my youth
\nPlease don't judge me
\nI let you close for hope and now you know my truth
\nThese memories broken, pieces chosen, spittin' it out in booths
\nIf I showed my sins to myself as a child
\nWould he look up to me too?
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI pray that mum ain't watering plants to leave on top of my grave
\nI seen that happen a lot
\nI might get dropped off on the estate
\nYoutdem die, Matanga days
\nOutside passing plates
\nI'm just passing through
\nHope that man's not passing way\n\n
