21st century technology (serious, serious)

Mobile phones, Internet

It's not safe anymore

Big Brother's watching

Your phone's getting tapped (serious, serious)

[Hook: Jme]

In fact

Sometimes, I think back

Some days, I felt trapped

My line's been tapped

My line's been tapped (tapped)

Sometimes, I think back (serious)

Some days, I felt trapped (trapped)

My line's been tapped (serious)

In fact

Sometimes, I think back

Some days, I felt trapped

My line's been tapped

My line's been tapped (tapped)

Sometimes, I think back (serious)

Some days, I felt trapped (trapped)

My line's been tapped (serious)

[Verse 1: Jme]

Answer my phone, yeah, who's that?

Hello? Ain't you gonna chat?

I can't hear nothing, I've got a full battery

And reception, blud, holla back

I still can't hear jack

Yo, I don't know what's going on

I think maybe this phone is whack

Either that or my line's been tapped

[Hook: Jme]

In fact

Sometimes, I think back

Some days, I felt trapped

My line's been tapped

My line's been tapped (tapped)

Sometimes, I think back (serious)

Some days, I felt trapped (trapped)

My line's been tapped (serious)

[Verse 2: Jme]

It's like the Matrix, the system we're trapped in

I'll tell you but you won't ever listen

Until the day when you get attacked and

Some of your property goes missing

Feds on road, they use police tactics

To cut off the mandem on a mission

If they ever got your phone and they tapped it

Serious, you know that you're trapped in

[Hook: Jme]

In fact

Sometimes, I think back

Some days, I felt trapped

My line's been tapped

My line's been tapped (tapped)

Sometimes, I think back (serious)

Some days, I felt trapped (trapped)

My line's been tapped (serious)

In fact

Sometimes, I think back

Some days, I felt trapped

My line's been tapped

My line's been tapped (tapped)

Sometimes, I think back (serious)

Some days, I felt trapped (trapped)

My line's been tapped (serious)

[Verse 3: Jme]

Concentrate on Ps and stacking it

Forget all the heat and packing it

Bredrins backing it, cause all that stuff there

Will only take you back in it

You was in a cell, now you're back in it

And nobody's got your back

You're on your own, lying on your back

Police have got your phone and they're tapping it

[Outro: Jme]

Jme

Hold tight Skream on production, yeah?

Hold tight Skepta, going out to Wiley

Hold tight the Boy Better Know camp, Roll Deep

Serious, serious
