Nines - I Wonder lyrics

[Verse 1: Nines] I wonder if my parents never met Middle man, made a k**ing yo I wonder will I ever meet the 'nect Wonder how these n***as sellout for a check Wonder if she knows I woulda made her wifey if she had a better rep Wonder why they don't wanna see me shine Wonder will I ever leave the streets But I [?] so I can have a piece of mind I wonder why I love buyin' ice Wonder how my n***a Cash and Hydro felt when the judge gave them life Let's go, I wonder how they cope I wonder if my chick would still love me if I was broke I wonder how all these guns get into my area Wonder why they care about celebs instead of Syria Wonder will get a L plate or get merked Wonder why they care about someone else's net worth I wonder out of all tracks what's my best verse And I wonder if them paigons know they about to get burst It's Nines... [Skit: Akala] What kinda person would you have been if you grew up in Hampstead instead of Harlesden? Once you grew up in High Wycombe instead of Harlesden? Who knows, look at the stuff you've been through And what you're surrounded by Your environment don't define you But how do you transcend it? But at the same time, you're growing Mandem are listening to you, and youtdem are listening to you What are you gonna do with that platform now? That's what you wanna ask yourself [Verse 2: Nines] Wonder will the lord forgive me for my sins Wonder if them lifers hear me on the radio Or miss me on the wing I know they wonder what kinda numbers my bud line do Wonder if them broke n***as know, I was just like you Wonder will Arsenal ever win the league Wonder why they notice my bad and not my good deeds Wonder why I'm so cool with all this weed in the base Wonder how'd it be if I grew up in a different place Free my n***a Wonder I wish he was free I can hear them sirens comin', wonder if it's for me I had my hand on a scale when you was touchin' the remote They don't put in work but got nerve to wonder why they broke All these new n***as actin like they graffed it with me Family member holla only when they askin' for P I know they wonder how I k** these tracks It's the middle of the drought, I know they wonder how we still got packs It's Nines... [Skit: Akala & ?] Would you be the same if you had the opportunity to access the other groups we would just naturally have born in time? No, what are we gonna do about that? What can we build? Can we change anything, or is it just set the way it's set? I don't know, I wonder the same stuff all the time There's a certain essence that you have There's a certain spirit inside of you that has to come out That is a part of who you are as well There's Nines and then there's Courtney They act like the mandem on the street corner are the criminals But the real criminals are in suits and ties Sending arms to crazy countries around the world War is profitable, murder is profitable You understand? And then they look at us like "Yo you people are the..." Our badness ain't nuttin' compared to their badness Their badness is real badness and our badness is joke badness And when you're on the road ting you gotta ask yourself "Boy, year in year out the food gets in and out of the country you ain't got no place" You know what I mean, and your connect's connect's connect's connect's connect Who's that man, you understand? Illegal d** is worth 16 billion a year to the UK economy That ain't used in Harlesden, or Tottenham, or Peckham, or East Glasgow It's someone else, somewhere else making most of that P But there's bigger questions... Yo Nines
