Lyrics

Bounce

[Intro: Fang Kang and Flowdan]

To attack without knowing the enemy's strength is foolish

And after being warned, to still attack is stupid

And people who are that stupid just don't deserve to live

But strangely though, one does find people who are that stupid (Stupid, stupid, stupid...)

Don't be stupid, very stupid because it's a Roll Deep ting right now, yeah?

We're keeping it tight, we're keeping it gangsta

(It's a gangsta ting)

[Hook: Dizzee Rascal]

Sounds of the Roll Deep Crew (Bounce)

Out to the ladies crew (Bounce)

There's no time to waste (Bounce)

Lemme see you show some pace (Bounce)

Out to the front in the place (Bounce)

Listen to the hot boy bass (Bounce)

If you know you got good taste (Bounce)

Whine and wiggle your waist (Bounce)

[Verse 1: Flowdan]

Just let mi draw for the venomous tongue

People get prang and people start run

Them dun know say fire a go bun

Where mi say again come bun fire bun

Ramp with the Roll Deep Crew, you must be dumb

Bulletproof vest and pump action

That's how I flex, that's how I tan

That's how I move, that's how I function

[Verse 2: Scratchy]

Stab you in the back but I'm not a back stabber (Not a back stabber, brrr)

Lyrics stick right in you sharp like a dagger

Feeling light headed now you really wanna stagger

Not no blagger, man I'm raw on dem ragga

Better mind out when Scratchy's about

Swear my lyrics will sprout

I'm like weed, there never is a drought

Don't write shit, if I do I cross that out

[Verse 3: Jet Le]

So cheer if you're really down with us (Down with us)

All fake MCs lose life get bust (Bust)

It's a must you trust us (Us)

Too much cheap talk won't phase us (Phase us)

Burn mics every night and day (What?)

You petty little haters stay away from the J (What?)

I'm ready for the world and the whole UK (Ha, ha, ha)

And I would just like to say that I roll deep with my niggas (Ha, ha, ha)

[Verse 4: Breeze]

(Hands up!) Freeze, don't make me squeeze

No it's not Babylon, it's Mr. Breeze (Mr. Breeze)

[?] catch my disease

So if you don't own a gas mask better at least say please (Yeah)

And I might be nice, cos I'm cold as ice

Drop bodies at a nice price, say the word

And I spray these nerds with verbs 'til their eyes are blurred

Eight bars for you turds (Rah)

[Hook: Dizzee Rascal]

Sounds of the Roll Deep Crew (Bounce)

Out to the ladies crew (Bounce)

There's no time to waste (Bounce)

Lemme see you show some pace (Bounce)

Out to the front in the place (Bounce)

Listen to the hot boy bass (Bounce)

If you know you got good taste (Bounce)

Whine and wiggle your waist (Bounce)

[Verse 5: Bubbles]

The Roll Deep Crew, call me Bubbles (Bubbles)

Now I'm gonna come and cause trouble on the doubles (Doubles)

Me and my crew, we stay low, we nah juggle

Yeah now I got my foot in the door (A-ha)

See me beef with the manor and I'm going on raw (Raw)

Wanna chat shit but you're not sure (Sure), get sparked on the floor

You all say you're raw, you wanna see me get dark? (Come on) Say more

Kick off the door, I'm raw

[Verse 6: Dizzee Rascal]

It's that Dizzee boy, lyrical tank

Box an MC like my name was Frank (Frank)

Going on dirty, going on stank (Stank)

Rob and MC like Barclays bank (Bank)

Dizzee Rascal, slicker than Rick (Rick)

Ready for war, come with the conflict (Bring it)

Never start arms for a chick (No)

I'm not a prick (No), I'll end your life real quick (Alright)

[Verse 7: Biggie Pitbull]

Lock stock the effing lot

Cos I'm cream of the crop gonna rise to the top

Man are going on hot (hot), blow up the spot

Always in time and I'm never gonna stop

Cos I make it, never break it (What?), never take it

Imitate it or perpetrate it (Biggie)

Stand up on a riddim and I chat no shit (Uh-huh)

Our idea, you'll like it

[Verse 8: Jamakabi]

Act the fool, rudeboy fi just cool cool (Idiot)

Jamakabi Dan come from the old school (Know dat)

My yout, it's your time to humble

And if you talk back don't ever mumble

No hot stepper cah you know you wanna stumble (Step)

Bruk your two foot and both your ankle

Make your whole crew look like a shamble

Roll Deep Crew, too hard to handle

[Hook: Dizzee Rascal]

Sounds of the Roll Deep Crew (Bounce)

Out to the ladies crew (Bounce)

There's no time to waste (Bounce)

Lemme see you show some pace (Bounce)

Out to the front in the place (Bounce)

Listen to the hot boy bass (Bounce)

If you know you got good taste (Bounce)

Whine and wiggle your waist (Bounce)

[Verse 9: Wiley]

They flopped, now they're gonna get popped

We rock the whole block from here to Bangkok (What, what)

Roll Deep, yeah we're way too hot (Ha)

Leave them in shock and we can't be stopped (Can't be stopped, yeah)

I never thought I was a hot shot, big shot, snapshot

Buss gunshot with the Glock black Glock (black Glock)

Plastic Glock you get shot on the spot (Spot)

MC killer make a MC stop (Stop)

[Outro: Flowdan]

And that's what I'm talking about, that's how the Roll Deep Entourage does tings, yeah?

Right, we had Dizzee Rascal, we had the pitbull terrier Biggie, we had Scratchy, Breeze man, Jet Le, Jamakabi, Bubbles, Flowdan and William

Uh-huh, Roll Deep Recordings

Are you mean, are you mean?

Trust me, original Roll Deep tings

Double oh-2, we're going through

(It's a gangsta ting)
