Fourteen
Tarun Puri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do a show in Manny, boss it like I’m Guardiola
Sparking zoots all day & sitting on the sofa
Getting licked all night it's Stella fuck Corona
But Stella's got me messy like I'm captain of Barcelona
Kronenbourg's much better while I'm tryna show off my persona
Know that my future's looking brighter than a supernova
And you can witness this shit like Jehovah but there's too much
I’m leaving a legacy
One day I'll be the legend like Tom Hardy
Always with gang, bare man like a shit party
Kids hitting Charlie so I'm leaving at half nine
Keep my head straight and smoke an eighth during half time
Get the pen and paper out and write another great line
Til' I make a living off delivering these bait lines
Wait a bit
And I made the switch, quiet or I’ll take your bitch
Next year I'll be touring Ireland, money I'll be Dublin it
Flippin' never fumbling it, chose this life I'll run with it
Roddy you’ll be in the box and I'll be fucking rich
You see this life's too short to waste it
So I'll work til' I can play in front of eight thousand faces
Get a fat play slip
Take the boys away, somewhere nice and buy a crib for my family to stay in
Shit
I was dreaming all day when I was fourteen
Mind drifting away they're gonna notice me
I was dreaming all day when I was fourteen
Mind drifting away they're gonna notice me
