[Intro]
You dun know wagwan
It's Kahn and the big Flowdan, yeah
So mind how you're talkin'
Cah right now you're walkin'
On my side of the street
And it's kinda tricky
Badman City (Yes iyah)
[Verse 1]
Rah! L-O-N-D-O-N
I beat my chest in the middle of the city (Shell)
If you wanna be my guest, it's a badman ting, so please don't bother act silly
I never bun a blunt from Philly, get skunk from Essex and Thai from Leyton
When man's lookin' for a high grade, I run up on a yard man blatant
And tell 'em it's a Badman City
Pass me the herbs, I ain't showin' no pity
You thought you were safe and sound where you landed
You buck up on the bandits, now it's all gritty
Rasta, ballhead, afro or picky
Anyone of them could rise up a thingy (Shell)
When I roll with my dargs, I show no pity
[Chorus]
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City (Yes iyah)
[Verse 2]
City of sin, that we're livin' in
Some fall by the wayside, some can swim
Badman a badman, fool is a fool
I ain't followin' the rules when I do my ting
I got a bad attitude with a bad mentality
Try know I value my badman family
Every one of dem are ever-ready like battery
Check out the badman strategy
The likkle wasteman couldn't tackle me
Bad from 'day, till I'm old and grey
I'm the wickedest in the business, don't forget
I'm at dumpers, dumpin' the badman way (Shell)
I was born with a purpose
None of the moves that I'm makin' are worthless
Keep it movin', cold, and gritty
Rah! Badman City
[Chorus]
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi from, mi tell dem Badman City
[Bridge]
(Yes iyah)
[Verse 3]
We set the order, don't violate, don't cross the border
The penalty's hefty, we've never been friendly
You're better off steppin' off and holdin' your corner
My city ain't fresh like water
No place for your son or your daughter
Holler at my youngers, they got the numbers
Cash by the hour? Nah, cash by the quarter
Hour, every fifteen, that means head tops could be comin' off clean
I don't wanna boast and brag about my ends
But my roadside ain't the city of dreams
Nightmares, plots, schemes
You never know when you're surrounded by fiends (Shell)
I tell you this straight
Even the gyal dem are trained to assassinate
[Chorus]
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City
Aks mi where mi, from mi tell dem Badman City (Yes iyah)
[Outro]
So mind how you're talkin'
Badman City
