From Certain Man - EP2015

Lyrics

Certain Man

Ay

[Verse 1]

Nah nah nah nah nah that's not me

Cause I'm putting my city on the map properly

Can't rap properly

Wanna talk bout clash but they're not coming out like Black Ops 3

Are you sure?

They don't want war

Bet it comes out like Black Ops 4

Got bare bodies I can add one more

Mans in his yard us man are on tour

Man get greeze and a man are on Raw

Bang man out make him stand up some more

Got a toolbox in the boot, spanner and saw

Stand up tall bandanna in court

Backchat now what you having it for?

I ain't having it no more man are just bored

More time smoked out cannabis lord

Jaykae there's no man of this sort

[Hook]

Yeah cause certain man'll go jail for their boys but they won't go shop for their mom

And certain man'll go run for a gal but if I need help that's long

And certain man will come smile in your face but really they hate on the sly

We get money all year so we don't really care it just proves that you ain't one of mine

[Verse 2]

Real like that

Back then I never had a mill like that

This is real life rap

Too real like that

Oh yeah now they wanna steal my chat

Start dealing me facts

We was only little kids beefing with straps

And a big man told us "you need to relax"

Still up in the ends same people in fact

You can ride shotgun I'm getting seized in the back

Like inhale exhale blowing out stress

See man going I ain't going out next

Know about me you're gunna know about Depz

I'm gunna go where I wanna go and run around yes

Can you go where you wanna go and run around? no

I'm in the studio not the bando

Shutdown the place anywhere man go

And I'll slap man up take his girl home

[Hook]

Yeah cause certain man'll go jail for their boys but they won't go shop for their mom

And certain man'll go run for a gal but if I need help that's long

And certain man will come smile in your face but really they hate on the sly

We get money all year so we don't really care it just proves that you ain't one of mine

[Verse 3]

And it goes like which other grime MC at 16 had a shotgun with two rottweilers

Pull up on your block like who wants violence? Yeah

You wanna try us nah

Come to the raves got the rooftop climbers

Come to the chase got a few hot drivers

Gotta get away from the blue cop sirens

Big man ting while you lot are minors

Recognise

Step aside

We only deal with the heavy vibes

Is that your girl I might make it mine

I'm a big man but I'm not 25

It's like energize

Oh yeah blud I got the grime scene petrified

Violate me I won't let it slide

Any wrong I've done's been rectified

[Hook]

Yeah cause certain man'll go jail for their boys but they won't go shop for their mom

And certain man'll go run for a gal but if I need help that's long

And certain man'ill come smile in your face but really they hate on the sly

We get money all year so we don't really care it just proves that you ain't one of mine

Safe

[Outro]

Cause man are like "Jaykae where have you been?"

Don't watch nuttin

Got this shit boxed are you mad?
