[Verse]

(Listen)

It was '07 when I said that grime wouldn't get man a mortgage (Listen)

Now I'm in a five-bed yard and it turns out man could afford it (Sounds of the)

It was '06 when I told them next year, Bimmers and Porsches (Listen)

If Storming was here, he would tell you I come a long way from Chordice (Listen)

Come a long way from George's (Listen)

You know that (Listen)

Fish and chips, I'm from East and we ain't got a Morley's

We got that (Listen)

Favourite's baby, chicken, no korma's (Li-Listen)

We was them niggas on corners

Now we're talkin' figures with corporates (Listen)

You'd feel sick if you knew what I made from endorsements (Listen)

Don't tell me 'bout whip, I made my own lane like a horseman (Listen)

Them man are all pricks, I don't like them lames but I'm cordial (Listen)

Still light up a wig and turn man's face into cornmeal (Listen)

Life's not nice, it's awful

It's your job to decide what haunts you

My dreams came true, it made me immortal

Wait, that's way too formal

I'm in and out Raiden's portal

I know who I am, I just act like I'm normal

Never had no plug, that just made me resourceful

Desperate measures, y'all know what that made me resort to

I'm from an era where we all did dirt so no one could record you

Them man are bystanders, they ain't bad by my standards

There's no playback on payback

I've seen so many deaths, it made this highlander remorseful

That's why I made next to kin

Your friend might be bad, but the good die young

So if I was you, I would not stand next to him (Listen)

I see the state they left him in

Even left a limb, where's the rest of him? (Listen)

It's hard not to dance with the devil when you're living in a city of Gods (Listen)

Concrete jungle, land of a million blocks (Listen)

Lions, gorillas and crocs

Young man's language, four-fours, four doors, drillers, and opps

Tables, bottles, and silicone thots (Listen)

I don't watch much football, but that was a brilliant shot (Listen)

You will not see me applaud when I hear the innocent drop (Listen)

I can only be fooled when I turn my ignorance on (Li-Listen)

I answer God's call like you know what mission I'm on

'90s rudeboy, militant bop

Try me rudeboy, spin it and pop

I maximise wins, take minimum loss

Got it on me now

I don't come back to buy things with legitimate guap

They can't take man for violin, no girl ain't stringing me along

Long

Zone 1 to 6, my travel card will not enter the friendzone

I know someone's chick wan' beat me, I'm stored in her phone as Jenn, though

Monopoly money, they just pretend though

Met her in Tape, told her my name was Lorenzo (Listen)

Me and my girlfriend, we're an exceptional couple (Listen)

Oh, you see that lyric before? That's gonna get me in trouble (Listen)

But back in the day I was stone cold, couldn't do sex, then cuddle

I'd ask if you want suttin' from the shop, then jet from the tunnel (Listen)

They can't finesse me but I've always respected the hustle (Listen)

It's not a laughing matter, but man definitely chuckled (Listen)

The hate's bait, the jealousy's subtle (Listen)

3:15, don't let me put bells in a double (Listen), trouble

[Outro]

We've been looking for these pussyo yutes all day, yeah

And we ain't found nobody

Just call it a day, man
