Standing Alone - Jaykae, Dapz On The Map

Let me open my mind and relieve some tension

In beef I don’t leave my bredrin

Tryna go hard for the next ten years so when I get old I don’t need my pension

HMP you better free my henchmen

Roll true fam I need my entrance

Don’t like going on twitter no more

Depz’s name when I see my mentions

Fam I can’t cope with it

Nah, I miss them times that I smoked with him

Or link up and buss thru drunk with him

Now I’m upset and I can’t hold it in

It was a younger me, it was an older him

About a month that I ain’t been sober in

I don’t wanna do this music ting

But this music ting’s what I owe to him

Could quit music but it probably wouldn’t help

I can’t be out here feeling sorry for myself

Need to provide for the ones that I ride for

Don’t wanna watch

Did this ting and we did it by ourselves

From the road trips to the studio

More of those nights was chillin' in my house

Those times are the times that I’m thinkin' about

Yeah, I’m lost without you

And it feels like I can’t be a boss without you

Road to success in front of my face and it feels like I can’t run across

without you

Havin' flashbacks about that night

Thinkin' why couldn’t that doctor help you

Yeah it’s mad how things change

Trust me it’s insane

I’m thinking what life would be like if I weren’t doing music

I’d probably be with my boys doing something really stupid

A couple of my friends are behind bars, oh

They love you when you’re here

When you’re gone they ain’t concerned

So first things first I’m putting myself out

Cos nowadays nobody wants to give a handout unless you help yourself out

I’m standing alone, alone, alone

I’m standing alone, alone, alone

Man wanna kick a man when a man’s down but then kick it with a man when a man’s

up

Trust me when I say there’s only a few man that man trust that’s why I’m

standing alone

It’s like I’m on a cold, lonely road on my own

Got no-one with me

Yo

If I never done music

I’m tryna think where I’d be right now

I’d be on the road where drugs get sold

Watching my back when I leave my house

On the roads you don’t know who to trust

But in the music ting I’m due to buss

So don’t ever try get rude to us

What you think I’m a prick cos I spray bars?

My bredrins inside on a ten stretch

And I’m pissed cos I was on the same charge

So don’t talk bad if you ain’t hard

I’m gettin' all stressed cos Lee’s in there

So I’m tryna get rich when he’s in there

When he comes out he’s nice

Jesus Christ

I need to hold up tings and make sure everythin' will be just right

Yeah I’m standin' alone

Workin' so I won’t answer my phone yeah I’m bad to the bone

Thinkin' your bad cos your bredrins there but there’s no-one there when you’re

cryin' on your own

Yeah I’m standin' alone

Them little boys can’t stand on my throne you’re mad

If I get shot or stabbed up tomorrow then who’s gonna look after your dad?

Real talk

Cos I only say what I live

Take a seat get down with my history

My old man never showed me love

That’s the reason why he don’t mean shit to me

Gotta succeed with life

Rub it in his face all smug with victory

I don’t know what’s written in a book no-more

So the rest of my life is a mystery

I’m thinking what life would be like if I weren’t doing music

I’d probably be with my boys doing something really stupid

A couple of my friends are behind bars, oh

They love you when you’re here

When you’re gone they ain’t concerned

So first things first I’m putting myself out

Cos nowadays nobody wants to give a handout unless you help yourself out

I’m standing alone, alone, alone

I’m standing alone, alone, alone

Man wanna kick a man when a man’s down but then kick it with a man when a man’s

up

Trust me when I say there’s only a few man that man trust that’s why I’m

standing alone

Standing alone

It’s like I’m on a cold, lonely road on my own

Got no-one with me

Man have just got peas, weed, clothes and my phone

Don’t know where I’m going

But tonight don’t think Imma go my home

So much going on in my head right now can’t chill and stay in my zone

It’s overly cold

You don’t know how many times my soldiers have rolled out

On tracks I go for the gold so Depzman’s running this bars ting no doubt

You best keep your jokes on the low

Round here there just ain’t nothing to joke ‘bout

Most time I roll on my own cah most man don’t show up when it goes down

And fucked as it sounds that’s just how things are in my home town

0121 nuff man are fake

That’s cool they’re the ones I don’t roll round

Man know me cos I flow well

And If you don’t like me oh well

Cos I ain’t goin' nowhere fast

And if you didn’t know that then you know now

But the way that I spray my bars you can tell there’s pain in my heart

Been goin' in hard straight from the start but they didn’t wanna rate me it’s a

par

But now they praise me and I just laugh

Fam it’s funny how they’re up my arse

Ha, yeah it’s mad how things change

Trust me it’s insane
