[Verse 1: Guvna B]
Yeah
Feels like only yesterday we was in the common room listening to Black the Ripper
And only yesterday when we was in class when you heard -pulled the trigger
And only yesterday when you introduced me to [?] city mixtapes
And I introduced you to that Christian rap and you thought it was a–
Heh, heh
Two different worlds
Back then I was on two different girls
And my actions didn’t match my words and you told me about myself
And you taught me about myself and it changed my life
It was only by the grace of God
See, I could’ve been in the club sipping Jager bombs
But a couple good mates helped change the odds
Now look
I should be all over the place
But nowadays man, I’m all over the stage
When a couple men asked me how, I tell a man that I’m all out with the grace, B
I never really wanted this
I wanted to play for West Ham
Baggin’ in hat-tricks, runnin’ in to the stands with a few fans shouting my name while I stand
I never wanted this
There’s a few that I think have gone clear, but I ain’t got nowhere
‘Cause I ain’t rich and I ain’t never won a BRIT
And I’ve never had a hit
And there’s bare MC’s that are clever when they spit
Slick and quick and comfy with it
But not me
I don’t even do this properly
But God still want to shine on me, it’s mad
They want to ask me how I got this far, tell ’em I don’t know
Somebody asked me how Nick got signed with ’em, I don’t know
It’s sound cliche but all I know
Ever since Jesus saved my soul
Couple of things happened and I don’t know
I never planned this, I never planned this
We never planned it, we never planned it
Feels like someone’s watching over me
He must be watching over me
[Verse 2: Nick Brewer]
Yeah, it feels like just last week we first met aged 15
You were moving like baitest teen
I was low-key like a [?] scene
Still though I had a lot going on in my mind
Trying to work out, I just really wanted to find what I’d heard ’bout
Dillyin’ and a’ dallyin’ really though I was panickin’, sitting in my yard like “Lord give me Your Word now”
Yeah, I was meant for these times
Didn’t know who I was half these times
And I think back to the impact, man it really coulda been mad
Still I’m intact
I don’t wanna get carried away
But I know a couple brothers who got carried away
[?] today, it’s no joke fam it could’ve been different
Thank God that you weren’t distant, listen
I’ve got a million things that I want to say and a lot of pain that I could never coulda shaken
Away breakin’ my brain mate
And I ain’t been the same from the day that you came and changed my lane
Brudda, He flipped my whole mindset
And there’s times that I might get quite stressed, still though I never digress
Never forget, I know I see that He’s already watching over me
Please believe
[Hook]
And they want to ask me how I got this far, tell ’em I don’t know

I never planned this, I never planned this
We never planned it, we never planned it
Feels like someone’s watching over me
