Verse 1
Am
Dear Father now im a man,
21 with about 21 plans
E
For plenty of grands,
back in the day I dun many dumb scams
Dm
D
When I was a kid, you said I wasn't shit coz I went and hung around 21 mans,
Dm
you wasnt a fan
E
Flopped in school coz I thought I was
cool by adding a Q to 21 grams
Am
But theres something you dont understand,
you were raised in a different land
E
But I grew up in London Town where theres
thugs and hounds and gunman round
Dm
With goons that hustle with tools as muscle
and sirens are the abundant sound
E
I was mixing with drugs and clowns,
heard the devil calling but it some how drowned
Am
When I look back it was like a montage, with
a backing track made by The Beatles
E
I was looking like a slave to the evil,
Dm
coulda been dead or in jail in the se quel
With a desperado mentality,
that invest in hard doe reality
E
But that life of snakes and ladders would
carry this wise guy straight to insanity
Am
Imagine me, sittin in my flat on my ones,
smoke on tap for my lungs
E
I wouldn't even chat to my mum, trapped and alone,
D
all for the lust of the funds
Dm
With no trust for your son,
E
thinking where has he gone? and what has he done?
But I never meant to do wrong,
so I gotta move on while I sing this song
Verse 2

Verse 3
E
2 (Ali Bla Bla)
Am
And they say...
Things aren't what they seem,
you split from mum when I was fourteen
E
Left the country like you had moved team,
never saw the times I wiped my tears clean
Dm
And as a teen, I hardly smiled,
never wondering why your son had been wild
E
Excepting that you made a blunder with child,
but you cant sweep lost years under the pile
Am
And even though I still had a good home,
with family affairs and no man ever there
E
I'd go on the roads and would roam,
with the olders who talked in a hood tone, ha!
Dm
Those years just flew right past me,
like lifes just one big party
E
You tell me to act calmly thinking,
How can I listen when I can't see?
Am
When I look back it was all the anger,
with a feeling that wasn't mutual
E
Another bloodshot vein in the pupil,
Em
E
Em
E
to people around me it took on a few tolls
Dm
And at what cost,
Thinking im a big boss? as if Ali Bla Bla was Rick Ross!
E
Tried floss for the girls with the lip gloss,
Em
E
Am
but the truth is, really I would live lost
But now times are changing,
had to take your advice coz my life needs saving
E
When I look back, yes I was the worst behaving,
and really there was only my self in blaming
D
Dm
But last year grand dad died and I saw
E
that look of regret in your eye
From relationship ties,
and it made start questioning mine
Verse 4

Verse 5
3 (Danny Wilder)
Am
If only we had known that long
before we had grown
E
Into similar images,
few psyical differences
Dm
D
Dm
From pictures we've been shown,
D
Dm
of our own flesh and bone,
E
At the same age we had
Em
E
been veering alone,
Am
Way off the tracks,
attracted to the other side,
E
Em
Dm
E
I'd run and hide in stupidity, literally,
Dm
fiction free, it was a reality,
E
Gradually though,
Am
Em
E
I had actually grown to realise
Am
The debt I was in. I was in no place
Em
to waste what I'd been given
And maybe we've been raised
Dm
to make a difference,
E
Finally i see that it pays to make a living,
Em
Finally i agree that what you say
Am
has paved a vision
And maybe the next generation of
E
Em
Dm
E
babys will get born into safety
Dm
And break these barriers down,
that we've been carrying 'round
E
Em
And break free from
Am
Em
the massive amounts.
