Scene

[Produced by Flarve] [Intro: Wiley] Because, y— d'you know what? That's a good thing to say because if you say, "Grime's dead" Everyone will sorta think, "Oh, is grime dead?" Some people who'll know it ain't dead will say, "No, it's not dead" Some people will go along and think, "Yeah, it is dead" And in that case, that will flush out the people Who shouldn't even be there And then the people who should be there will remain So when I look at them "grime's dead" T-shirts Sometimes I think, "Yeah, it is dead Grime's so dead that it's not dead!" [Chorus: Jammer] Yo, wide awake in the scene Me and my circle shapin' the scene Dem man try bring fake to the scene We clock that they can't partake in the scene You didn't drop no tape in the scene Ain't got a reload 8 in the scene Dem man there try takin' the dream Think that they are but they ain't in the scene [Verse 1: Chip] Seen us standin', so outstandin' Light this amm' ting, I'm not landin' You're no bandit, stand like raskit Had myself when no one backed it Mandem skankin', they're on a dab ting UK ting, go home, black cab ting Bore up what?
