Professor Green - Read All About It

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'till the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid
They can read all about it, read all about it, ooohhh

Nothing to hide and then smothered, suffered and cried, jack made me tougher
To trouble I rise, above all, expectations forget rep, ain’t never
When I wanted to get, hustle, to be I am, say I had to cash in all my dad’s debt
I wanted to, instead I said nothing at all, after all, you were never kind to me
Family is something that you never been to me, in fact
Making it harder for me to see my father, was the only thing that you ever did for me

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'till the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid
They can read all about it, read all about it, ooohhh oh oh ooohhh oh oh ooohhhh

As a kid I looked up to you, only thing was I never saw enough of you
Last thing I said to you was I hated you, I loved you but now it’s too late to say to you
Just didn’t know what to do and how to deal with it
Even now deep down I still live it, I think, I used to blame me
I wonder what I did to you to make you hate me
I wasn’t even 5, life’s a journey and mine wasn’t an easy ride
You never even got to see me rap, I just wish you woulda reached out
I wish you woulda been round when I been down
I wish that you could see me now, wherever you are I really hope you find peace
I know that if I ever have kids, unlike you i’ll never let them be without me

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'till the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid
They can read all about it, read all about it, ooohhh oh oh ooohhh oh oh ooohhh

I write songs I can't listen to
Everything I have, I give to you
In every one of these lines I sing to you My job's more like public service, my life just became yours to read and interpret
If you heard it it'd come across a lot different at times
I throw fits when I read how they word things
You've see me smile, now you're gonna have to see me hurtin'
'Cause pretending everything is alright, when it ain't, really isn't working

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'till the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid
They can read all about it, read all about it, ooohhh oh oh ooohhh oh oh ooohhh
Ooohhh oh oh ooohhh oh oh ooohhh

I ain't censoring myself for nobody, I'm the only thing I can be
All that is good, all that is bad, all that is, me

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'till the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid
They can read all about it, read all about it, ooohhh
