lyrics

[Intro]
Ah, yeah
You know who it is,
It's Blue Saint,
Reporting live from the LIV, from the DRC

[Chorus 1]
Yeah you know it (You know it)
How I came through, dropped,
My debut, made moves and plots,
Faced through, all dooms, and monsoons I copped,
And became, who? Blue Saint on top,
Yeah, you know it (You know it)
How I changed the scene,
Made real from the make believe,
Told these, I'd go achieve,
Everything I set my mind to,
With my brain and feel and you know it (You know it)

[Verse 1]
Yeah, what you know is true,
I came from places you've never seen or ever viewed,
So let me set the scene, set the mood,
Of when I was seventeen, or maybe two,
Nah, how about I fast forward to,
When I moved down to England 'round age of six,
Yeah, I kinda like that, so I'll rewind back to that time,
Let me sift through,
I just entered London, from hell and dungeons,
That fell on Congo, I entered something, new,
A new place to call home,
A place I'd never seen, an alien to this place I'm touching,
Ah, but they hate my function,
Hate the way I walk, way I talk, some hate my suffering,
Some think I'm cushioned, when everyday I face conundrums,
Ever since my place was butchered, (What the flip)

[Chorus 2]
You know it (You know it)
How I came and showed,
From debut, how I'd take control,
I made moves and I reached my goals,
Came through and sowed,
My whole life in these tunes, that's growth,
You know it (You know it)
How I changed the scene,
Made real from the make believe,
Told these I'd go achieve,
Everything, I set my mind to,
With my brain and feel
And you know it (You know it)

[Verse 2]
So now I'm London chilling,
With something willing me to move,
We were little children,
Me and my other siblings too,
And a single mother, up in little Britian, yeah
(You know it, you know it)
And we moved up to Liverpool,
In the cool dusk or dawn,
We cruised up, a pinnacle,
Period of time in Blue's life, 'cause I recall
When I'd soon bust some lyrical, tunes,
When seven happened,
And I'm settling in Kensington, and I'm setting magic
Setting sentences like I'm setting a set of matches,
'Cause each time the pen hits the page, feels I'm creating fire, (fire),
And as the flame ignited,
And shaped in ways to make a blaze, and create entire,
Flames that'd take and melt away
My pain, desire, entered my brain, a writer's,
What I became, in spite of

[Chorus 3]
You know it (You know it)
All the pain I seen,
I came through, in this place and schemed,
Made moves and chased my dreams,
Raced to be, one of the best, no less you see
Yeah, you know it (You know it)
How I came through, dropped,
My debut, made moves and plots,
Faced through, all dooms, and monsoons I copped,
And became, who? Blue Saint on top,
Yeah, you know it (You know it)
How I came through, dropped,
My debut, made moves and plots,
Faced through, all dooms, and monsoons I copped,
And became, who? Blue Saint on top,
Yeah, you know it (You know it)
How I changed the scene,
Made real from the make believe,
Told these I'd go achieve,
Everything, I set my mind to,
With my brain and feel
And you know it (You know it)

[Outro]
Blue Saint, Mémoire,
Ayo, man,
I think you should bring it back to some of that,
Ya know, bring it back to the roots
