Little Bo Peep

[Intro: Ghetts] I don't sleep, I just close my eyes I'm no sheep, Bo Peep, she must die The Lord is my Shepard The Lord is my Shepard I don't sleep, I just close my eyes I'm no sheep, Bo Peep, she must die The Lord is my Shepard The Lord is my Shepard [Verse 1: Ghetts] Jumped out the car, had a change of heart Somethin' weren't right, told the bros "Call it a night" But they just said I'm pussy, pressure from my peers I never folded though, blessings from upstairs When I'm rollin', I'm protected That's a prayer from my grandma Concerned about her grandson I ain't phoned to say a change gon' come, that's what Sam sung I'm from the land of Rambos, Acid, samurais and handguns Where it's "Fuck dads" and thank mum, but me, I'm my dad's son Ain't hard to see my father in me The apple never fell too far from the tree My mother hates that, but she can't disagree Bricks on my bedroom floor, you think it's Carnaby street Exaggeration, but you're startin' to see You get the picture, literally Copyright infringement, they ain't payin' for these samples Wanna hit? Then Visit me Jumpin' over cows, I skipped the beef So I can run around with thousands in my jeans I was in these streets, where it's dangerous fam As a kid I found comfort in my favourite shank 'Cause I was always outnumbered, never claimin' a gang I never know moral compass, I became detached I'm just a outsider inside, outlinin' things I'm surrounded by This time the outcome is insight to how some live life The shoe doesn't fit me anymore And that's for sure, but the trousers still fit fine We just follow fashion, follow trends, follow enemies And follow friends bein' followed by the feds And follow women on the 'Gram and then we follow them again Everybody's followin', but where we bein' lead [Pre-Chorus: Ghetts] I don't sleep, I just close my eyes I'm no sheep, Bo Peep, she must die The Lord is my Shepard The Lord is my Shepard [Chorus: Hamzaa] What are we here on this earth for? (Why? Why?) See all this choice, but you still follow (You still follow) God gave us mind of our own (Mind of our own, of our own) But still the open road we go (It's the open road, it's the open road) [Post-Chorus: Wretch 32] Stuck between a rock and a hard place Sold rocks in a hard place Used the same rocks to build my marjay One big house on a little old street We fell in love with Little Bo Peep I'm in a rock and a hard place But these rocks bring you heartache Used the same rocks to build my marjay One big house on a little old street We fell in love with Little Bo Peep [Bridge] Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ha-ha-ha Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah [Verse 2: Dave] Would you tell me that I'm crazy if I said you could make writing wrong? A man would ride along forever, whether right or wrong Follow your morals to the T and hand retribution Set judicial precedent, prevent confusion Takin' a life, that's illegal on the block 'Cause it's evil, but it's legal for some people with a job Who gets to tell us what a soldier is? Middle eastern children molested You run the clip on the news and then we get over it What happens when you don't follow? Cold niggas so borrow Mums cried, doves fly, tears in a thug's eye Push base, pump white, overdose, mums die Her choice, rough life, harsh truth, tough lie Heard he went guilty for a lyin' and caught a nine today Wouldn't even matter 'bout a forty minute flight away Niggas up day and night, tryna sell you night and day Our sons will follow us until the cold light of day When you don't follow the program you get Kano and Wretch You get Skepta and Wiley, you get Dave and Ghetts Women on the guestlist, relatives respectin' Thirty year stretches, bodies in the trenches What I wouldn't do today, who said I wouldn't do tomorrow? The problem ain't followin', it's what you choose to follow What if we chose to follow all the things we used to follow? Spoke about sex less, normalised death less Obsessed less over capital and excess Took drugs less, frowned on love less Little Bo Peep must sleep forever more We feel but don't grieve, we grieve, but never mourn We look but never see, we see, but never more The role models are sufferin', tellin' them that there's a war outside Tellin' them that there's a war outside [Chorus: Hamzaa] What are we here on this earth for? (Why? Why?) See all this choice, but you still follow (You still follow) God gave us mind of our own (Mind of our own, of our own) But still the open road we go (It's the open road, it's the open road) [Post-Chorus: Wretch 32] Stuck between a rock and a hard place Sold rocks in a hard place Used the same rocks to build my marjay One big house on a little old street We fell in love with Little Bo Peep I'm in a rock and a hard place But these rocks bring you heartache Used the same rocks to build my marjay One big house on a little old street We fell in love with Little Bo Peep
