Nafe Smallz is gearing up to bare it all on his upcoming mixtape IT’S NOT YOU IT’S ME, set to drop January 30 via his Ozone imprint, and “ALONE” already feels like that late-night drive through empty streets—melodic trap vibes dripping with the weight of wins that still leave you cold.
Dropped as a standalone single on New Year’s Day, this one’s classic Nafe: hazy auto-tuned flows over brooding beats, blending UK drill edges with wavy R&B hooks that linger like smoke. It’s self-reflective fire, tracing the glow-up from “selling coke, stuck on the mains” to iced-out chains and private jets, but never shying from the isolation that tags along. Lines like “When I needed ’em, nobody came / I got reasons, I’m alone in the rain” hit hard, unpacking fake love, forgotten prayers, and those inner demons he’s wrestling while stacking commas.
No big features here—just Nafe painting his trenches-to-triumph story raw, nodding to the hustle without romanticizing the mud. Fans blew up his socials after the release, quoting the chorus like therapy, with the moody visualizer adding that cinematic grit of dealers, killers, and high-rise views.
The full mixtape? It’s billed as 19 tracks of his most personal yet, pulling from Luton roots and years grinding independent. Expect more of that signature blend—trap bangers with soulful introspection, maybe touches from NorthSideBenji or other circle heavies teased in recent posts. Coming off 2024 drops like Neighbourhood and Ticket To The Moon, this feels like Nafe leveling up the vulnerability, ditching some of the flex for deeper cuts on broken trust and self-made scars. It’s the kind of project that cements his lane in the UK wave, alongside peers like M Huncho or wewantwraiths, but with his own smoky, melodic stamp.
At this point, Nafe’s no underground secret anymore—consistent tapes since DNA with Chip, viral moments, and that effortless flow have him poised for bigger lanes. This tape lands right as he’s owning his narrative, no label chains, just straight from the mud to the mansion. It’s him reminding everyone why the isolation fuels the fire, turning pain into anthems you blast alone in the whip.
Dive into the ALONE lyrics below and unpack its raw narrative. Don’t miss other IT’S NOT YOU IT’S ME tracks for more of Nafe Smallz’s melodic trap introspection.

Lyrics of ALONE by Nafe Smallz
[Intro]
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Ooh, Nah, Nah, Nah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Ooh
[Chorus]
Selling Coke, I Was Stuck On The Mains
Now These Stones Doubled Up In The Chain
When I Needed ’em, Nobody Came
I Got Reasons, I’m Alone In The Rage
When You Winnin’, There Ain’t Nothin’ But Love
Keep On Sinnin’ And Forgetting To Pray
Independent, Got This Shit Out The Mud
Hope My Demons Never Lead Me Astray
Somethin’ Light, Book A Flight When I Bill It
Do Or Die When It’s Fresh Out The Trenches (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
In The Cut With The Dealers And Killers
I’m Dressing Up, In That Shit, I’m The Illest, Yeah, Yeah
Money And Fame, I Used To Dream ’bout A Watch And Chain
[Verse 1]
I Put My Life Down On The Page
I Had To Let Go Of All Of The Rage
I’m Still In The Back With The Low Lifes
Sell And Ton And I’m Buying Some More Ice (Ha)
Had To Pick It From The Floor Twice
Now I’m Getting It Cheaper Than Your Price
Don’t Let Them Tell You That You Gotta Limit
I Break Every Level They Set (I Did)
I Pay For The Flat, I Pay For The Villa, And I Let Her Pay Her Respect
She Gimme That Pu**y, She Wet
Lighting A [?], We High On The Jet
Landed In Manny, I Holler At Meekz
Yeah, We Got Some Money To Make
You Know I Keep This Shit Tumbling In
She Love You Then She Let You F**k On Her Friend
Took The Hood Under My Wing
Without Me, My Niggas Got Nothing To Sing
Feel Like There’s Nothing To Lose,
All Of These Commas, Got Nothing To Prove
Mansion, It Came With A Pool,
High On The Hill So I Came With A View
She Freakin’ And Geekin’, I’m Smoking Sativa,
She Cheffing A Meal With Her [?]
She Just Wanna Please Me, Rub On Her Genie,
I Got Her Wishing I [?]
[Chorus]
Selling Coke, I Was Stuck On The Mains
Now These Stones Doubled Up In The Chain
When I Needed ’em, Nobody Came
I Got Reasons, I’m Alone In The Rain
When You Winnin’, There Ain’t Nothin’ But Love
Keep On Sinnin’ And Forgetting To Pray
Independent, Got This Shit Out The Mud
Hope My Demons Never Lead Me Astray
Somethin’ Light, Book A Flight When I Bill It
Do Or Die When It’s Fresh Out The Trenches (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
In The Cut With The Dealers And Killers
I’m Dressing Up, In That Shit, I’m The Illest, Yeah, Yeah
Money And Fame, I Used To Dream ’bout A Watch And Chain (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
(Glee) Show Me Something Real, I’m On Strong
Living How I’m Living, Gun Smoke
Anytime I Slide, I Want More
Tryna Find Out Where The Love Go
[?] I Take A Moonwalk
Every Night This Shit A Nice Stroll
Sci-fi Shit On My Car, Doors On It Suicidal
Back To The Same Routine
Back To Back Raves, It’s The Scene
Steady Leaking Change, Keep It Clean
Remember All The Days When I Would Dream
No Place For A Snake In My Team
They Know How I Keep The Regime When I Step Out With The A Team
Yeah, Yeah
[Chorus]
Selling Coke, I Was Stuck On The Mains
Now These Stones Doubled Up In The Chain
When I Needed ’em, Nobody Came
I Got Reasons, I’m Alone In The Rain
When You Winnin’, There Ain’t Nothin’ But Love
Keep On Sinnin’ And Forgetting To Pray
Independent, Got This Shit Out The Mud
Hope My Demons Never Lead Me Astray
Somethin’ Light, Book A Flight When I Bill It
Do Or Die When It’s Fresh Out The Trenches (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
In The Cut With The Dealers And Killers
I’m Dressing Up, In That Shit, I’m The Illest, Yeah, Yeah
Money And Fame, I Used To Dream ’bout A Watch And Chain (Ooh)
