Southgate Lyrics by JAY1

Sorry I’m Late

2024

[Intro]
[?]
Look

[Pre-Chorus]
I done a lot in my life, I'm grateful
Done some things that I ain't too proud of
Had some friends that I had to cut
Burned that bridge, they were moving sour
When I found out Ricardo passed
I got on my knees and prayed for an hour
Rest in peace Ricardo Reid
I swear one day, I'ma build you a tower

[Chorus]
More time I don't wanna go Tape
I wanna hit booth and link Nostalgia
Told Jordan don't ever be shy
Puff out your chest and speak up louder
Better watch for the snakes in the grass
They'll lower your vibe and take your power
JAY1, I'm a household name, I'm living in Cov'
But I grew up in Cowper

[Verse 1]
Southgate's where everything started
There was football then I turned to an artist
I was out there tryna ball like Mahrez
Now it's glasto, wireless and bar fest
Back then, I weren't doing up church
Then I change my ways, now I'm doing up fasting
God came into my life real quick
When I dropped to the ground and turnt to a target
JAY1, I don't trust nobody, sorry, been this way since colly
Too grateful that my life all changed
I remember it was all a hobby
All I want in the world is peace
Love, care, it ain't 'bout money
I was chilling with them man there
Had to burn that bridge
They were moving funny

[Pre-Chorus]
I done a lot in my life, I'm grateful
Done some things that I ain't too proud of
Had some friends that I had to cut
Burned that bridge, they were moving sour
When I found out Ricardo passed
I got on my knees and prayed for an hour
Rest in peace Ricardo Reid
I swear one day, I'ma build you a tower

[Chorus]
More time I don't wanna go Tape
I wanna hit booth and link Nostalgia
Told Jordan don't ever be shy
Puff out your chest and speak up louder
Better watch for the snakes in the grass
They'll lower your vibe and take your power
JAY1, I'm a household name, I'm living in Cov'
But I grew up in Cowper

[Verse 2]
That's Korcan, Dursun and Tarkan
That's Sheyanne, Israel and Dardan
That's Harry, Rico and Cory
Best listen when I tell my story
That's Charlie, Asa and Jarrad
That's Knuckles, Levi and Shanchez
That's Bobby, Matthew and Kennedy
That's violence, good vibes and memories
That's Alex Bernard and Billy
That's Andrew, that's Chris my killy
That's Tonye, Rene and that's Dean
That's Melchi, Dijon and Niche
That's Jordan Christian Montana
That's Amy, Emily and Santa
That's Spencer, Navi and Rhys
Ricardo Reid, Rest In Peace

[Pre-Chorus]
I done a lot in my life, I'm grateful
Done some things that I ain't too proud of
Had some friends that I had to cut
Burned that bridge, they were moving sour
When I found out Ricardo passed
I got on my knees and prayed for an hour
Rest in peace Ricardo Reid
I swear one day, I'ma build you a tower

[Chorus]
More time I don't wanna go Tape
I wanna hit booth and link Nostalgia
Told Jordan don't ever be shy
Puff out your chest and speak up louder
Better watch for the snakes in the grass
They'll lower your vibe and take your power
JAY1, I'm a household name, I'm living in Cov'
But I grew up in Cowper
