| Streatham Common, running from the one time
|
| I can’t be late when its crunch time
|
| Man talk about my life but I love mine
|
| It’s better a punch line than a cunch line
|
| You see, tryna find a shot thats a tough grind
|
| You spot one by spot one on the front line
|
| When the race gets tekky I’ve got to run mine
|
| Thats the story on road and my love life
|
| You’ve got the young g’s pressuring the older kids
|
| You ever felt like somebody’s gotta go for this
|
| Feds follow me and my associates
|
| I gotta take a hard left, we’re the Soviets
|
| I never waited for a bring in or the lottery
|
| I wanted to make moves but its fucked cos the worker in me always seems to
|
| argue with the boss in me
|
| Nobody made change sticking to the policy
|
| Nobody’s speaking for the youth and it bothers me
|
| They said I’d either do crime or be a rapper I’d manage to do both so I’m a
|
| self fulfilling prophecy
|
| I’d told bae your Penelope of my odyssey
|
| Rolex, daytona with the white face
|
| Man trapping get a duty soliciter then wonder how they end up getting birded
|
| for a light case
|
| There’s a lot of niggas fitting in a tight space
|
| It’s Jimmy Conway not Jimmy Fallon
|
| I seen man peak young like Lily Allen
|
| We had to do it then act like it didn’t happen
|
| Nowadays its pics or it didn’t happen
|
| South London’s the home of the trigger action
|
| Long shanks I’m a brave heart
|
| I think therefore I am it’s like Descartes
|
| Then war something its gotta burn like napalm
|
| Youngs Teff gave me the call of duty
|
| But I couldn’t picture times like this when I
|
| would rock a fake Jacob and save up for Forreduci
|
| People wanna use me don’t wanna lose me
|
| Different place
|
| Girls say I’m a different person any given day
|
| How you talking on my name with that little wage
|
| They threw shade on my borough before the insta page
|
| It’s got me fighting myself
|
| Half my guys in the cell they denied any bail
|
| It was time for a ridin' I was riding as well
|
| I’m Lord Petyr Baelish I’ve got knights in the Vale
|
| Im outside where its deadly, and I ain’t singing medlys
|
| Top floor views tryna figure where my head be
|
| Supreme box logo
|
| And I ain’t at the marches but this ain’t my first rodeo
|
| Better than your favourite rappers now when I used to spend my profit on polo
|
| Before the 'rona came it was high key on the low low
|
| Box cutters for the packages that coming through the door
|
| Send a memo to the tugs, is you coming to the war?
|
| Cah the weaponry select never left the shelf
|
| The feds can’t protect us so we protect ourselves
|
| Why I’m rapping bout pain they ain’t never felt
|
| It’s trapping early in the morning with Vanessa Feltz
|
| My brothers do lunch in Amiri Denim
|
| While I’m waking up from dreams seeing fairies in them
|
| You said I ain’t top 5, had a big laugh
|
| And rappin weren’t the only way I had six paths
|
| Having visions of the future seeing cocked machines
|
| And now we in the future we got 'nuff machines
|
| When I was making classics they was watching beans
|
| Had the submarine now I ain’t ever seen a submarine
|
| Used to dream of big houses with a swimming pool
|
| MJ and Scarface posters in the living room
|
| But we got to teach the kids about the principles
|
| Hoody, gloves and mask like Victor Doom
|
| Love the handle on the spinners cos it grip rubber
|
| But never touched another man because of skin colour
|
| How we treat these women bad and they still love us
|
| Got to do better so they can heal for us
|
| And every other day she tells me I’m so talented
|
| But my life’s upside I gotta balance it
|
| Getting money now I hardly check my balances
|
| And shoutout to my manager because he managing
|
| Late night say a prayer while the candle lit
|
| But this Balenciaga Paris made me arrogant
|
| She came round wrapped up like she Arabic
|
| Might seduce her to some Usher,
|
| can you handle it?
|
| My juvy still a teen wanna cop a range
|
| We ain’t never own a thing I say this not the way
|
| Local opps tryna drill me from a block away
|
| Saw it before it happened felt like Doctor Strange
|
| And right now I’m holding business with Santan
|
| And I ain’t talking bout loans or a bank scam
|
| I’ll gobble up a contract like I’m Pac-Man
|
| Something like track and field how the cash ran
|
| [Verse 3: Youngs Teflon &
|
| Dave
|
| Used to break down squares playing xbox
|
| My last verse probably paid for my next watch
|
| Cos the rap game remind me of the crack game
|
| I walk into a cypher like it’s a pet shop
|
| My niggas in a sin bin he got sent off
|
| And went off for the team thats the end of
|
| Rain, hail, sleet for a ten shot
|
| Einstein we were working for a dead prof
|
| I got both cos I’m indecisive
|
| But I been around teeth like gingivitis
|
| They going to remember trilly like they did the titans
|
| Running through the bramble like that nigga Titus
|
| And we ain’t washed up but we clean good
|
| Before sticks we kept the mase like Greenwood
|
| I know the man are asking but the team good
|
| My niggas ballers off the drugs they didn’t need snus
|
| And we good you know the guns and the butter
|
| But I ain’t want much I give the funds to my mother
|
| True to the oath for if I’m a bring it to my grave
|
| We in a different grade, this is Jimmy and Dave |
