Never Be Me Lyrics

[INTRO: Wretch 32]
That could'a never been me
'Ca I forever been me
Hittin' on another team
That could'a never been me
'Ca I forever been me
Not livin' out my dreams
That could'a never been me
'Ca I forever been me
Hittin' on another team
That could'a never been me
C'mon and get to know me

[VERSE 1: Wretch 32]
Look at the age of fourteen, I felt the pressure on me
That's why I never did sleep, 'ca I never had dreams
I was forever on street, I had a pair o' off-keys
An' a top of dolce, an' had a pair of cold sneaks
That help me run from police
'Ca my mothers so deep, she would'a sent me O.T
Because she never got pees she was ever so pleased
When I got my own keys, at sixteen so sweet
Even tried to sell weed, but couldn't get a whole key
I had to let it go peek, didn't get to know pees
Until I got to eighteen, but still I never OD'd
'Ca my foot was in the scene, I had to make it concrete
And now I feed my whole team
[Hook: Angel]
They can't believe the one they doubted
Is taking me home(?) tonight
When I didn't even try
Ain't that what(?)
You screamed and shouted
'Cos I made you change your mind
And I didn't even try

(Haha) You love it
(Haha) How he does it (repeated)

[VERSE 2: Wretch 32]
An' I ain't never been tight, I'm like drinks on me
An' I can do that all night, 'ca I got my shit right
I never blink or sleep, 'ca my dreams my life
So the limits my sky, until into the ground I dive
But a legend don't die so why the hell should I
I got heaven on side, my little boy soon stride
When he gets his own stripes, I get him sponsored by nike
It's real talk no hype, 'ca his daddy's been fly
I been cool no ice, I don't stunt I style
It ain't all about price, unless you get it on swipe
I pay cash no dice, so everyting' nice
Because a rider got drive, I get head no lice
[Hook: Angel]
They can't believe the one they doubted
Is taking me home(?) tonight
When I didn't even try
Ain't that what(?)
You screamed and shouted
'Cos I made you change your mind
And I didn't even try

(Haha) You love it
(Haha) How he does it (repeated)

That could'a never been me
'Ca I forever been me
Hittin' on another team
That could'a never been me
'Ca I forever been me
Not livin' out my dreams
That could'a never been me
'Ca I forever been me
Hittin' on another team
That could'a never been me
C'mon and get to know me
