| Lookin' back, times they was whack
 | 
| I used to steal from my grandma, my style was so slack
 | 
| Nothing i could do to stop sucking on a brew (?)
 | 
| If I kept on this way next stop was the glue
 | 
| Had to get away, had to find a way out
 | 
| So I raised up my fist and gave a GLC shout
 | 
| Tidy
 | 
| Lookin back, I was on the edge
 | 
| But I had to make a pledge
 | 
| To the GLC, cos you knows they’ll set you free
 | 
| And if you open your eyes you can see
 | 
| You knows it
 | 
| 1983 to the present day
 | 
| Safe as fcuk
 | 
| Knows it
 | 
| Yeah, the GLC saved a lot of people’s lives
 | 
| Stopped a lot of people getting stabbed with big knives
 | 
| All these people here in one big crew
 | 
| … (?) between me and you
 | 
| We wanna stop all the violence on the streets
 | 
| We wanna get the kids together
 | 
| Wanna make 'em feel sweet
 | 
| We gotta stop all the stuff thats goin' on
 | 
| … (?), and smoke on a bong
 | 
| GLC GLC (serious)
 | 
| The only thing in life what could ever save me (respect)
 | 
| GLC GLC (38 double D Killer, … (?)
 | 
| The only thing in like what could ever save me (2000 AD)
 | 
| GLC GLC (the rod (?))
 | 
| The only thing in life what could ever save me (Benwa Balls)
 | 
| GLC GLC (One Step Down)
 | 
| The only thing in life what could ever save me (Burnside)
 | 
| GLC knows it
 | 
| 2000 AD
 | 
| 2000 AD was a bad boy you see
 | 
| That’s what they said back in early '83
 | 
| It wasn’t my fault, my father was a boozer
 | 
| He used to beat me up and said I was a loser
 | 
| But times they have changed
 | 
| My style’s less insane
 | 
| Cos I sees the light in the Goldie Lookin Chain
 | 
| Big shout out to DCI Burnside

| You fcukin' knows it
 | 
| You know, sometimes I go into Pil late at night
 | 
| I sees robbings and beatings
 | 
| People smokin' draw
 | 
| I think, there’s gotta be a better way man
 | 
| Ya know, I think it’s time for the GLC to make a change
 | 
| It’s time to make a fresh start
 | 
| Like Biggie n 2Pac, innit
 | 
| GLC GLC
 | 
| The only thing in life what could ever save me

 | 
| GLC GLC
 | 
| The only thing in life what could ever save me
 | 
| Lookin back, times was strange
 | 
| Like Barry Bethel makin the change
 | 
| Blastin through, using tablets and pills
 | 
| At community centres I got the skills
 | 
| But now we gets together in the GLC
 | 
| And smokes loads of fags and has cups of tea
 | 
| You gotta do it
 | 
| Join in too
 | 
| Like YTS when you’re smacked out on glue
 | 
| Oh son, the days of the 9 bar are over
 | 
| It’s all ounces and quarters now clart
 | 
| Serious man, I’m serious
 | 
| There’s no room for gangsters on the streets no more
 | 
| There’s no room for beatin’s or fightin
 | 
| It’s time for chillin' innit
 | 
| Fresh

| Lord of lords
 | 
| King of kings

 | 
| Razz as fcuk
