Ghetto Superstar

[Verse 1]

I'm a ghetto superstar

I've loved music since I was three

I was brought up in England slums

So you definitely can't take the hood from me, trust me

I'm used to coming home late after school, puffing

Listening to Roll Deep tapes on my wall, it's nothing

Now I've made the tapes become real life, 'cause

If there's a Roll Deep rave, I'm inside, bruv

Don't watch that guy in the corner looking at my face

I know the bouncers get me, and I've got my shank in my waist

[Chorus]

Ghetto superstar

Ghetto superstar (I'm a ghetto superstar)

[Verse 2]

I'm getting older now, but I'm still advanced for my age

And I think it's about time that I am the star on that stage, I swear

Last week, I did a video shoot with Scorcher and T, yeah

Green screen, when it comes out, look hard and you'll see me there

But I don't wanna be that extra person in the vid

I'm a superstar, book me and pay me 500 quid, straight

I wanna roll round in a tinted limousine

Right now, gotta settle with the tinted screen

Of my Punto, no qualms, it's all good though

'Cause I'm repping my ends and all the mandem from the hood know

You can't come round here, I'm an MC

But don't get it twisted, I will still kill like 50

[Chorus]

Ghetto superstar

Ghetto superstar (I'm a ghetto superstar)

[Verse 3]

Blud, I'm a ghetto superstar

I do music but I'm still street

That's how I roll, I've got a chaps, chain, phone, dough

And all of the mandem know I'm on show

Look who's in my ends

It's that prick from the Roll Deep rave

With my blade, he's gonna get

More than a quick close shave

Now I've done the crime

I've gotta face the court case

Oh my days, not even I

Knew it would be this grave

The court case ain't looking too good

Right now I wanna die

Rah, mum, don't cry

You know why?

[Chorus]

I'm a ghetto superstar

Ghetto superstar (I'm a ghetto superstar)

[Verse 4]

So now I'm locked up

And it's a joke 'cause I don't care

Watch, I'm counting down the days

Til I get out of here

Then I'ma write lyrics about it

Like Ghetto did

So all them other kids

Can be like me

[Chorus]

Ghetto superstar

Ghetto superstar (I'm a ghetto superstar)

Ghetto superstar

Ghetto superstar
