WHITEBOARDS ft. ThatoFeels Lyrics

I just turned 25

Incredibly grateful I'm still alive

Considering the fact that I almost died

That other night

Twice, if I can remember

First time was in my ex's ride

Truck driver straight up ignored the light

He saw the light

But didn't drive slow

I saw the light

But I didn't die though

A couple days before "Your Absolutely Right"

I'mean, imagine,

Is'bhanxa almost killed the magic

But with all this drive

I'm not surprised I almost died in traffic

But I'm doing alright

No more taking a drive at night on the passenger side

Now that I'm driving in mine

Thanks to graphic design

A booking here and there

Because I still haven't made up my mind

Whether I'm a

Rapper, rhymer or graphic designer

Or if it

Even matters

I haven't to decided but if it

Really did, so what if it's only what I know?

I mean those titles look good in your Instagram bio

But also, I shouldn't undermine the skillset

Otherwise I'll be losing out on multiple streams of income that haven't even started pouring in yet

Best foot forward should've just been the preset

I mean, both feet forward, this year, I need to leap it

Like February 2020, on a weekend

No? Mxm

I just had to write it down

Just to see it

Everything I know right now

I repeated

I just had to drop that L

Just to win it

Hasn't been about myself

For a minute

I'm shaking it off now

Feel like I'm ready for more now

'Cause I just had to write it down not to quit it

I keep it in my right now

Don't forget it, get it?

(Everything's about timing)

Certain wins I don't think I was ready for

(Timing)

Certain things only connected - I was 24

Timing

Looking back at my mistakes and all the fumbled bags

They don't really bother me like that

There's always plenty more

Opportunities to secure the win

Art first, then you focus on your positioning

I thought about it for a minute now,I was just a kid

I had to pack my bags and leave the place I was living in

and move to Jozi

Now I'm here, you can't ignore me

It took a couple years just to be sure that I know my story

I just wanna tell it like it is, in all it's glory

I had to be the one to open that door for Sho Majozi

Ooh, I'm such a gentleman

You should give it up to me

I mean, you should give it up for me

I know you see me working

Got my hands dirty

Wipe them on my dungaree

Looking for that handshake

Only if you fuck with me

I'mma need to see your fucking hands at the concert

So I can recognise them when we start discussing the profits

I know it's business

But I'm still a sensitive guy

Before a piece of the pie

We should probably discuss it over a braai

I just had to write it down

Just to see it

Everything I know right now

I repeated

I just had to drop that L

Just to win it

Hasn't been about myself

For a minute

I'm shaking it off now

Feel like I'm ready for more now

'Cause I just had to write it down not to quit it

I keep it in my right now

Don't forget it, get it?
