018

[Verse 1]

Back— Back then I was bumping section

Bumpin' train and bumping bredrins

Yeah I knew dat pain was essence but I weren't doing no gigs like SN

Ceecee was a broken boy, 018 was a broken man

Yout went there with pain and grief, and came to me with a broken shank

I sat and prayed for hope and that

Drink and smoke we coped with that

'Cah after prayer you know Ceecee hit the roads in fact

Concrete no roses akh

Just wan help mumzy with rent

On my step with bros in black

We know too well that Jesus wept

Does he weep for the poor? All the man that sleep on floors?

All thе man that lost their pops, then lost their dargs not keeping scorе?

All I had to my name was scores

Lambeth nigga, that's to my core

I air their dem man, their ting comes forced

My story's blue like Michael Ward

Tees they did get torn

Made me ask, we were born?

Just to grow up then get bored

All the fuckeries that I saw

I don't want no white awards, my uncle told me keep it black

That was before my uncle fucked with the white, and started heating crack

[Chorus]

In '018

I dreamed of having an O

Cee was patterning flows

My boy was patterning, tssk, uh, patterning smoke

Ps the catalyst bro

Young Gs ain't on man of the house, its more like man on the road

[Verse 2]

AJ and Puma trackies, hats and scarf get used as ballies

Youts off maggy, dem get stupid aggy

Movin' clueless akhi

We grieved as students akhi

OGs recruited gradly

Man don't talk, 'cah in my ends man died off rumours akhi

Back when F was AC

And we loved that tune from Drake and Baby

Pops was Kanye crazy

Choice was slim and shady

So what was the aftermath

Blocka living I kettle bathed

You come to the ends with kettles, I ain't shocked, when them man haffi petrol—

[Chorus]

In '018

I dreamed of having an O

Cee was patterning flows

My boy was patterning, tssk, uh, patterning smoke

Ps the catalyst bro

Young Gs ain't on man of the house, its more like man on the road

In '018

I dreamed of having an O

Cee was patterning flows

My boy was patterning, tssk, uh, patterning smoke

Ps the catalyst bro

Young Gs ain't on man of the house, its more like man on the road
