| People are claiming that
|
| They can’t be chased, in fact
|
| I make amazing tracks
|
| Just ask your favourite rappers
|
| I’m gonna be your favourite rapper
|
| Literary visionary, legendary wordsmith
|
| Observant. |
| Strike like the white lightning might hit the Gherkin
|
| I’m quite bright and versed in
|
| The ways of working the stage without rehearsing
|
| I’ve learnt it. |
| Preserved it
|
| And now decant it into capsules by Turkish
|
| I’m actually a track bully
|
| Attract police just because I’m young and sometimes wear a black hoodie
|
| Now clap for me. |
| I rap goodie
|
| Very well. |
| Feds want me in every cell
|
| Because I spit a little different
|
| Diamond in the rough, watch me glisten
|
| I was raised in the city where you don’t know who to trust
|
| Where the mayor makes you pay a tenner just to get a bus
|
| It’s enough that the rent will never stop going up
|
| The streets are full of people tryna find the road to love
|
| Or luck. |
| Absolutely, absolute power corrupts
|
| I went to school. |
| Exclusion drove me nuts
|
| My skin colour means I’m always wearing cuffs
|
| I hail from Africa, my fam escaped massacre
|
| Jump onto my train of thought, I’m still taking passengers
|
| I’m just tryna make a living to be honest
|
| As well as getting acknowledged
|
| For killing my list of problems
|
| Living just enough for London
|
| Trickle down doesn’t function
|
| I stand tall
|
| Like the pyramids of Giza, this is black excellence
|
| Yeah, I give you fever |
