hunger is priceless - tiny boost lyrics
[intro]
honestly, thank god that you’re out here because, bro
now that i think about things you’ve been through, yeah
brudda, you coulda been doing a thirty, bro
i’ll be real with you, boost
have you ever actually thanked allah, bro?
i’ll be honest for you, bro, it was pear*shaped for you
obviously, you got your little time
remember, everyone used to be on this, like, going round the loop
but remember, it was you that started saying, “listen”
like, “something has to go”
[verse 1: matt lansky]
i tell ’em, “don’t swear on my name”
they tell me i’m different and tell me i’m stuck in my ways
that sh*t came from us then you know that it came from the finest
if they had my memory, they’d wish for alzheimer’s
high as a kite when i’m feeling un*mindless
days i didn’t eat, you know hunger is priceless
i might act like i’m cool, sometimes i pretend
now i can’t drive around without five percent
i’ll cut both of my hands ‘fore i beg for a plateful
why they tell me it’s love when i know that they hateful?
i still get on my knees just to show that i’m grateful
but watch my back ’cause i know they scheming
two wrongs don’t make it right but it make it even
she tell me that i never listen
she tell me to show off my feminine side, the reason i’m stuck in the kitchen
these jakes want me stuck in the system
don’t trust you, i’m keeping my distance
can’t show any love to a witness
told me this sh*t from an infant
[verse 2: tiny boost]
co*defendant got k!lled the night before trial
us versus trident in that courthouse
looked at bro like, “d*mn, we at war now”
cps said we getting life before we walk out
long story short, informers infiltrated us
death before dishonour, nah, there ain’t no breaking us
thirty*two rec for bro, i’m still shaken up
ipp on my plate, you know i ate that up
fast forward, leaving prison in a limousine
next day, i’m on stage, that’s a victory
hollow said, “you’ll be a star”, that was it for me
sat up in my hostel, i took that sh*t literally
dropped “strictly for the streets”, i’m in the industry
street dreaming, not a penny from the streams yet
still selling work, i weren’t clean yet
rapman gave me my first clean cheque
that was the sign, akh, you see it there
only took me two years to start seeing clear
ask rappers for a feature cah i love music
not becah i rate your gangster, now let’s not be stupid
hunger is priceless and therapeutic
hunger is priceless, i just never knew it
peckham boy, stood in brixton like i’m from bricky
it’s all love southside, you know we run the city
i was f*cking what’s*her*name before the bbl
but i hit the old body and the new body
they ain’t catching up to our old works
don’t make us have to prove that we still got it
why they flex what they grossed like it’s net profit?
no rip post till you stepped on it
your main shooter got respect for me
your main shooter barely got attempts on him
mine got them m’s on him
you see, me and him are cool, but we don’t talk becah my friends want him
they got my name on indictments and arrest warrants
they got my face on that pyramid, i’ve been wanted
i’ve been tried, been tested and i’ve been solid
i went school, skipped college, had a bit of porridge
i got an extra two years ’cause i did popping
i guess that mean i’m a big problem
i got left in that bing, rotting
in that workshop near enough picking cotton
gunslinger turned rapper, mum, i know you proud now
hid my hammer by the house and then the neighbour found out
thank my brudda for the clothes that he had to hand down
‘fore the streets, i thought that i would be a lil bow wow
i was dirty as h*ll, thirsty as well
the hunger made me go against them odds and prevail
like i said, it’s all real
yeah, it’s all real
[interlude: matt lansky]
cut off both of my hands ‘fore i ask for a plateful
cut off both of my hands ‘fore i ask for a plateful
why they tell me it’s love when i know that they hateful?
why they tell me it’s love when i know that they hateful?
gotta watch my back ’cause i know they scheming
gotta watch my back ’cause i know they scheming
two wrongs don’t make it right but it make that sh*t even
hunger is priceless, hunger is priceless
said this hunger is priceless, hunger is priceless
cut off both of my hands ‘fore i ask for a plateful
said this hunger is priceless, hunger is priceless
[verse 3: tiny boost]
that hunger feeling have you scheming
especially when you look around and see a neek eating
yeah, he kinda cool but you looking for a reason
every time i’m sleeping, i was really street dreaming
dispersal nightmares, they cried tears for freedom
end up on the landing, salute the g’s when you see them
that’s standard procedure
can’t put a price on that hunger, over time it made me stronger
i’m a hustler, fifteen, i was bagging all that dust up
grabbed my machine when they thought it was a punch*up
sliding till all the wheels puncture
before i speak to the d’s, yeah, i’d rather have my tongue cut
and that’s on everything i love
k!lled my bro in cold blood, that turned me to a monster
i remember when my aunt threw the mac in the dumpster
“how i make it out”, sometimes i wonder
