Cashh, Krept, Konan, Wiley, Ghetts - Audio Biography lyrics

This is my audio biography
Here's my story to you from me
This is my audio biography oh

It all started off when I was ten
That's when I first picked up a pen
With intentions of writing my own song
I came a long way, it's been so long
I must've thought I was American back then
Cause I used to rap with an American accent
I was a young boy tryna be my brother
Till I wised up and said that
I ain't tryna be another
I remember back when I was in primary school
One of my older brothers
He had a studio set up in his room upstairs
And I I just- I just used to be
In there with him every single day
Seeing him work, and I just wanted
To do what he was doing, man
I just wanted to rap, I just wanted to be him
This is my audio biography
Take you back to where it all started
I'm talking 'bout before I
Wrote my first song
I'm talking 'bout before I knew
That I'd become an artist
This is my audio biography
And I'm talking before the shows came
I'm talking 'bout how I got
To where I am today
From just a little known boy with a road name

I was 3, I only done it cause my dad done it
My parents didn't raise me cause
My nan done it every year I've been alive
I knew my talent was
Musical above all, that's how the balance was
Plus I learnt a lot with Slim back in '93
Used to dream of having a team
Spoony and Mikey P
That's why I don't hate Cage
And that would never change
Cause he never ever lied to me
I remember, my dad said
"Stay with Nick, Nick's good don't stray"
But like, cause I'm my own person
I was always gonna travel a
Different path to Dizzee
To Nick, to Roll Deep, to anyone
And now, we're all solo
This is my audio biography
Take you back to where it all started
I'm talking 'bout before I
Wrote my first song
I'm talking 'bout before I knew
That I'd become an artist
This is my audio biography
And I'm talking before the shows came
I'm talking 'bout how I got
To where I am today
From just a little known boy with a road name

I remember my first lyrics
My friends were my worst critics
Had a few bars, but they preferred Titches
They preferred Sharkeys and
They preferred Dylans
Who could blame them? The truth was blatant
I ain't gonna lie, before I had my own style
I was listening to Precious and duplicating
For me, that's where the skippy style
Originally came from
Now, there ain't an artist I can think of
That I can't lyrically rain on
I've come a long way
From bedroom sex to Marlon
Jermaine and André
Even though the route that was the
Fastest became the long way
I'm still a legend, off and on the stage
And I thank the Lord, songs of praise
It could've been very different
This is my audio biography
Take you back to where it all started
I'm talking 'bout before I
Wrote my first song
I'm talking 'bout before I knew
That I'd become an artist
This is my audio biography
And I'm talking before the shows came
I'm talking 'bout how I got
To where I am today
From just a little known boy with a road name
