guvna b - traffic lyrics
[hook]
lil man’s growing soon be my stunt double
praying that the village gon’ keep him outta trouble
thinking ’bout the future got his old man puzzled
sitting in traffic by the blackwall tunnel (yeah)
[verse 1]
i just picked my son up from the nursery gates
how’d we make it here?
i still remember when my old man used to do the same
he told me school’s the place i never really grew in faith
’til ms. aanonson clocked and helped me soothe the pain
stories, essays shе had me writing two a day
told me with the pеn and paper one day i would prove i’m great
now look i’m rapping for my dinner
nothing like a teacher that believes we can deliver
but fast+forward teachers overworked and underpaid
it’s like we underestimate the task they have to undertake
it’s more than marking papers
they gotta spot the dangers
probably a reason for a students shocking bad behaviour
what’s going on at home?
who helps the children grow?
it’s hard to concentrate on homework when your dad’s a ghost
what matters most is community for the lack of hope
and redefining that success is more than stacking dough
[hook]
lil man’s growing soon be my stunt double
praying that the village gon’ keep him outta trouble
thinking ’bout the future got his old man puzzled
sitting in traffic by the blackwall tunnel
lil man’s growing soon be my stunt double
praying that the village gon’ keep him outta trouble
thinking ’bout the future got his old man puzzled
sitting in traffic by the blackwall tunnel (yeah)
[verse 2]
we need some aspiration lack of faith is k!lling us
how long we had the same cirriculums and syllabus
a protractor or compass don’t help my tax bills
i wish we learnt about mortgages that’s a stimulus
me and my wife debating private school policies
access to their collages might give my child a deeper vision
but maybe they can perpetuate inequality
and i don’t know if we should pander to elitism
yeah, son what you wanna be when your older?
son what you wanna be when your grown up?
do you wanna go to sp+ce see the solar?
do you wanna be a chef or a soldier?
no pressure ’cause i got your back forever
we did good, but you’ll do better
clocked that whatever the weather
gotta keep on it
gotta keep pressing
plus with god sending blessings
we ain’t playing or messing
save the stressing put those efforts in investments
say my prayers ’cause
i just want my son to take it further
he’s gon’ go to places that i never heard of
every generation needs a launch pad
ezzy go explore that, i love you, g
[hook]
lil man’s growing soon be my stunt double
praying that the village gon’ keep him outta trouble
thinking ’bout the future got his old man puzzled
sitting in traffic by the blackwall tunnel
lil man’s growing soon be my stunt double
praying that the village gon’ keep him outta trouble
thinking ’bout the future got his old man puzzled
sitting in traffic by the blackwall tunnel
