Cut Knuckles

Yeah, ye, ye

My mixtape brought all the girls to my yard
I can tell that I've been a little bit selfish, but, shit, I can't help it, you know?
I got a new crib, cell and a car, got a new ting that wanna get felt in the dark
I got the next one textin' for sex even though I can't tell them apart
She got a new set of nails and her ass got a room for my shoes with a carved-in mirror
Even though when in Naij', I was walkin' with pride in my bathroom slipper (slipper)
And my cartoon knicker
My aunt took my ass from a boy to a man
No washing machine, man wasn't a teen, but was washin' my clothes by hand
Cut knuckles, the water stang

Now I'm watchin' the brand-new stuff that I got gettin' tumble-dried
Thinkin' gone were the times that I'd jump for my whites to be hung outside
Bro-bro should've really went there too, but we didn't have funds, we tried (tried)
I was missin' my mum some nights, it hits different, I wonder why

My mixtape brought all the girls to my yard
I can tell that I've been a little bit selfish, but, shit, I can't help it, you know?
I got a new crib, cell and a car, got a new ting that wanna get felt in the dark (she do)
I got the next one textin' for sex even though I can't tell them apart

She got a new set of nails and her ass got a drive with a car that I can't even drive
And a peng one giving man lessons, she drives to my yard and she parks on the side
Man's taking that ass for a ride, got a man in her life, but she's like, "It's a minor"
Old boy makes a fuss sometimes, but if I was her, I wouldn't let her ride with me either
But I'd be out of my mind to remind her
Got took out the boarding houses
Spent my bus fare on eediat tings, so I had to walk home for hours (hours)
In the hot sun, cold, and showers
I was on commutes with folks and a van or an Okada man
Was twelve years old with some hope and a plan
And I smiled 'cause I know who I am, so it was mad that
