The Bottom |
| Well UK culture like |
| Usually is, very centered towards, um, London |
| Like that’s where like UK culture presumably is |
| From the outside world like people who are not in the UK |
| But really in UK, Birmingham like they got they own culture |
| Manchester’s got they own culture |
| Like Nottingham got its own culture |
| And even Liverpool got they own culture |
| And obviously Northampton as well |
| And the maddest thing about all those places |
| Is like, there’s one thing that they all have in common |
| And that’s that there’s a bottom of the power |
| And the bottom of the power is real gritty, you hear me? |
| Doesn’t matter where you comin' from cause |
| All around the world there’s a ghetto |
| All around the world there’s a slum |
| All around the world there’s a hood, somewhere |
| All around the world there’s always a bottom |
| Grease |
| Vybz Kartel man are bleached |
| Come through the fog like steez |
| Upon horseback manna breeze |
| Water it down like Evian |
| Think that Tyron’s naive |
| Pitchforks and keys |
| Telling me farmers ain’t got dreams? |
| (farmer's are coming) |
| Grease |
| Vybz Kartel man are bleached |
| Come through the fog like steez |
| Upon horseback manna breeze |
| Water it down like Evian |
| Think that Tyron’s naive |
| Pitchforks and keys |
| Telling me farmers ain’t got dreams? |
| Tyron’s too crooked |
| Tackle the scene two footed |
| Pose for a scene but factually speaking |
| Them man are leeches |
| Them man are just pussies |
| Trap for a weekend when they ain’t eating |
| Run to their Mummys |
| Northants ain’t got the twang like Brummys |
| More time I can’t confined |
| Cause problems |
| No father figure, but my mum was watching |
| Bamboo, grew up too fast, no confidence |
| Butterfly stomach, didn’t have no options |
| Drugs or a job and the job got lost quick |
| Ignorant obvious, mans obnoxious |
| Voice in my head: |
| «Don't go to the doctors |
| Go to the pub |
| Brandy and a Fosters» |
| Bottom of the barrel, Bubbling like hops does |
| There’s a bottom of the pile |
| And the bottom of the pile is real gritty, you hear me? |
| The majority are at the bottom |
| That’s the realest thing |
| So it’s like, doesn’t matter where you comin' from cause |
| All around the world there’s a ghetto |
| All around the world there’s a slum |
| All around the world there’s a hood somewhere |
| All around the world there’s always the bottom |
| Electric gone, that’s calm though |
| Hearts too black like charcoal |
| Man have been moving cargo |
| End this scene like Fargo |
| Take off your chin like Bravo |
| Man shout gang like Kartel |
| Then get prang like heart felt |
| Then run off like: «ahh well» |
| Get beat up then they all talk |
| Fist fighting well it’s just sport |
| Wait till the balls in my court my brudda |
| I just want a house and a Porsche for my mudda |
| Gates to the grounds, Fountain with a giraffe |
| Black diamonds Granite floor for the car park |
| Buttler’s, milk and a Mars bar |
| First class well, thais class harder |
| Jealousy doing better then my father |
| What ya saying, what you’re saying means nada |
| Circumstances I know my actions |
| I’ve been attracted, chasing mansions |
| Charlie Manson, voice of a leader |
| You hate life, I don’t like it either |
| Sit in the pub Like a geezer |
| I can’t smile like Lisa |
| Can’t remember, don’t smoke Amnesia |
| Every day I put more money in the metre |
| Gassed everyday I put more in than a litre |
| Mad what we’ll pay, no space for a breather |
| 419 transfers with Enoch |
| Workouts, yeah I had scuffs on my Reeboks |
| Pick my feet up, Used to get beat up |
| Now I walk in New York and my feet up |
| Put T in a Tea Cup |
| I’m not a mug you can dip Rich Tea on |
| Speak when spoken mum said be gone |
| Wanna be bigger than The Beatles |
| Look through the key hole for that kilo |
| I ain’t got kids I gotta feed though |
| I’m just a monkey sitting in a tree bro |
| Spend a monkey, monkey not me though |
| Said I’m gassed up like Stev-O |
| We clash, villain and a hero |
| Sometimes I can’t look past my ego |
| Tell me what I need cause I need yours |
| Tell me what you see cause I see flaws |
| Tell me what to eat cause I eat yours |
| Tell me how to be me more |
| Like gorge, cause I’m so gorgeous |
| Bored boredom, getting Moreish |
| Toothache I’ll take it out |
| I don’t go to the dentist |
| Cause I’m poor blood |
| Doesn’t matter where you’re comin' from |
| Right that culture, there’s gonna be a twist in that culture |
| There’s gonna be a difference and then be a different personality from that |
| comes from that culture |
| And Thai’s personality comes from the grittiness of Northamphton |
| How he grew up, where he grew up |
| But it also transcends worldwide cause |
| All around the world there’s a ghetto |
| All around the world there’s a slum |
| All around the world there’s a hood somewhere |
| All around the world there’s always the bottom |
| Like the bottom, the bottom of the pile you get me |
| Like the people who are in the dirt, for real |
