It's hard chilling with niggas who only talk about bitches and never bout business
Misogynistic till they sisters get involved
Then it's vengeance in the name of feminism of course
Bragging about who they piped down on highschool fool
What about right now?
Ouu you wanna fight clown
Want me to put the mic down
And leave me Mike Brown, light brown soaked in the concrete
Just beyond God's reach
So tell me what's next
Boys in blue paint the town red from all the bloodshed
Still interrogating myself
Tell me how do crocodile tears fall from dry Wells
You can't confuse fedora boy for a suspect
The pen was the murder weapon
The muse the Weeping Woman
Still tryna paint Picasso circa 1937 it's true
I'm just paying my dues and my dudes
You out preeing my moves
I'm confused on my own two and keep singing these
Hook
Manchester City Blues
Drown my liver in a pool of liquor it's true
Monetize my pain (and my hurt)
Commodify my frame (do ya work)
Modify my name (just the first)
To fit in this lil game
Verse 2
Mama working like there was two of her
Can't let this muthafucking 9-5, 10-8 ruin her
Meanwhile I'm jumping thru the hoops of dodging daily news and being in groups with young dudes who loving tough
Now she stressing and thinking her baby doing drugs
A lil weed but I might as well have been shooting up
Aim for goals so high they got me shooting up
But chasing dreams ain't for kids who got no time for looking up to the stars with leaks all in the ceiling plus..
I was chilling just tryna make me a killing bruh
I remember Young Tony tales from the hood
I remembered teachers never had my name understood, look
Ain't with the back and forth like racquetball or basketball nah
You doing her bad she put you on blast like a Kalashnikov ah
All nighters for med school tryna crash the course
Same minute I'm medded up on all the Adderall
Iiiii look in the past and think of the battle scars
Thinking of picking my bags and taking a trip to California AAA
That's why I look in the mirror like I'm the fucking man
Cuz the younger me would probably be a fucking fan
Look who the boy became and I'mma hit the Damn MJ Michael Jackson thriller dance
Milly rocking either hand
Diddy boppin Sweeterman
Trending topic neither I don't give a damn I just wanna see the fam
winning off my
Manchester City Blues
Drown my liver in a pool of liquor it's true..

[@LAmusicprodz]

This music has literally everything that I seek in music: lyrical content with a message, flow, cadency, melody, personality + a dope beat. What more could I ask for?

[@juanalfaro7175]

Couldn't have stated it better 🌊

[@austincreasy1112]

That is so true

[@John.Sutherland]

Saw TOBi open up for Mick Jenkins in Leeds last night & had to make a note of his socials on my phone. Great performer. It's rare you find someone who sounds the same live compared to their records. He made a fan of me for life.

[@ednakrabapoly]

that's really nice

[@jacknapier6668]

Same here my brother saw him in Dublin and I did not expect these melodies when he broke in to the chorus of this track I was in awe he’s really talented.

[@Sidewalkpeace]

Rhythm and Blues. A soon to be lost art. Modern masterclass Sending love from the UK

[@Spitty95]

Brampton to the world

[@brayandiaz2475]

This man would have the best collab with J cole

[@purplesushis7672]

Brayan Diaz j cole or JID

[@bhopemiazwi]

JID and him will be absolutely amazing with a smooth jazz or blues type beat playing in the distance

[@ariannanoda3672]

That's exactly what I thought

[@georgethompson1991]

MARA PHATS I feel like his and Paaks voices would be hard to differentiate. But it would go off.

[@CaymanRojas]

Man that would be killer, talk about a #1 hit for sure

I just don’t understand people nowadays. lol pump and smoke purp could drop a song rn and get 2 millions in no more than a few hours. A masterpiece like this is dropped and it ain’t touched a million in over 2 years. Never fails to blow my mind

[@princefabson3456]

Thank you Sway for helping us discover the next up ❤

[@marcuspeart6196]

This is one of the best songs in modern times. Blues hits hella different. Forever and always.

[@VlogOfWill]

I remember when you would freestyle at Campion man. You’ve come such a long way. Keep grinding you’re going to make it

[@AnkitaBhanot]

He's only going to keep getting bigger! Can't wait for what he drops next 😍

[@emmanuelmwansa3890]

Ohhh well I'm getting his album 🙏💯💯

It’s off the album ‘STILL’

[@killedbykindness]

Shout out to Lost in Vegas for reacting to this flawless song. Probably wouldn't have discovered it otherwise ^^

[@janmajnik6889]

He is so underrated. Stumbled on this song randomly and I was like wtf is this and where has this guy been and lookin at the youtube video I'm like how does this only have 900k views. Bamboozled. xD Someone needs to sign him asap.

[@kruchless]

I've never heard of this man in my life until Spotify did it's thing. I had to look him up, this is a man who needs 20x the exposure. His art is what 20** needs (NOW).

[@jocelync.2034]

Bruh I thought this would have 10 million views by now

[@Bigman-pp9io]

This is smooth asf

[@elliedickinso]

Preach

[@jbaker3039]

Your nothing like these other rappers. you have a positive vibe and I really fuck with that and your not just rapping about drugs,sex and money

[@TypicallyAnthony]

Found you on Instagram. Your sound is so smooth and melodic. Patiently waiting for the big break that I know you're about to stumble upon. Talent like this does not go unspoken. I can't wait until you show the mainstream what genuine & timeless quality looks like.

[@benmcdonald4832]

I trust it'll happen. If it doesn't then something is seriously wrong

[@makwarelahellen9808]

Truth. He will blow up

Frank ocean mixed with j cole. The world needs more of this music.

[@ariannanoda3672]

Rappers with soul and a message. We need more of them.

[@stevenaguilera418]

That would be fire 🔥

[@evanferree]

Facts

[@jacobavery6700]

Yoo Frfr this artist is the next J Cole. It’s not the same but it’s his own and that’s what the music industry needs. Creativity is key in the music biz. Keep up the work.

[@SirSuperFlyy]

Lost in Vegas brought me here. Amazing!

[@siri3848]

Anyone else listen to a particular artist for months on end and just enjoy their music without doing a little research and then decide to see what they’re all about and it leaves you more satisfied with your choice of music 😭

[@martinawright7157]

Tobi is a Breath of Fresh Air... thank You Jamie Foxx

[@MuhamedCausevic]

This needs a million views right now. Not kidding, this is the hottest song I have ever heard in my life. I have this on repeat all day and it gives me goosebumps over and over again.

[@mobileeyesmarketing808]

This is an excellent song. Simple as that.

[@yungsleezy-cg3mt]

Been trying to remember what this song is called and after a couple years I finally remembered thanks to the dream I had 👍

[@teeteeplatinum]

This song is too smooth fam... Can’t think of an artist who’s like him at the moment. Do your thing man.

[@fijianmade]

Dreamville needs you! You voice speaks loud but the soul speaks louder my brother , good looks for you and your future.

[@Vlo.Murkin]

Finally some one with actual talent

Still waiting for this to blow up the way it should

[@PanoramicVue]

speaks deeper than I could have ever understood two year's ago. tough times but thankfully there is an exotic artist such as yourself. extremely extraordinary.

Hope this guy makes it to the top... and remains humble ! !!! Great song 🔥

Damn, can't believe I've been listening to this for over a year and it's still as good as the first time 🔥🔥

[@The_wordsmith]

Triller every stream lil bro‼️ light em up!!

[@MuhamedCausevic]

Had a long day at work, guess where that took me? Back to this song to destress. But instead I am more stressed, why is this dude only got 20K views? This dude should be in the millions. Stop playing people and share this stuff. P.S. I am in no way connected to this singer and am not his PR guy. I'm just not hard of hearing.

[@rawLmaobigDImEs]

Truth

[@ApplejuiceOmar]

Lyrical music and melody. Rare to find nowadays. And not to mention his vocab is precise and somehow i just wanna keep hearing what this guy gotta say which means his delivery is intiguing. His voice is literally the cherry topping to this musical Sunday.

[@ariannanoda3672]

This is so soulful!! I love everything about this. The beats really hit that deep place

[@alfredhughes683]

There comes a time when you hear a person rap and sing with pain in they voice coming from the heart this guy is truly blessed and real, thanks for blessing my ears ...

[@krazykittykat759]

I searched Tobi from Naruto and I saw this. Best thing I ever saw in my life.

Fired up tune. Salute from Mozambique!❤🔥✊🇲🇿

[@oh1247]

The amount of collabs he’s going to have when he blows up 🔥🔥

[@CaapriceTube1]

1:24 - Okaaayy, Crockford just around Victoria Park & Lawrence. Pass it all the time when I'm on the 54 Bus to Kennedy.

[@catacombkidd5036]

This dude is from a different planet. That voice and talent is some once in a lifetime shit. This cat oozes soul for days. That’s without mentioning what he’s doing with rhyme scheme, word play, and cadence changes even carrying vocals through these complex bars. And that’s all without mentioning the heart of his subject matter. People don’t quite understand the complete genius being created here. 700k views says it all. You have this happening behind the scenes while millions/billions of the majority lap up artificial, face-tattooed clowns, mumbling and yelling computer manipulated vocal and word over the same trap structured beat. Makes sense.

[@daboydudus3912]

If only people knew who man city and liverpool are then the line, “singing these Manchester city blues drown my liver in a pool of liquor”would hit so much harder my god.
