作词 : Dave/James Blake/Joe Reeves
作曲 : Dave/James Blake/Joe Reeves
[Intro]
(Knife crime is at a near record high
With more than forty blade offenses every day in London)
(At a youth club in South London, not far from where someone was stabbed
Less than twenty-four hours ago
He outlined a direct link between violent crimes, social exclusion and austerity
A study by City Hall found that London has seen an increase of 71%
In victims of serious youth violence since 2012
The Mayor says this is linked to an increase in poverty
With the highest rates of violence taking place in come of the poorest boroughs)
[Verse]
Look, I bet them boys think I'm panickin'
Check what my young Gs are carrying
His blade same length as a javelin
I don't know about B-ball or what's happenin'
But know that it's fukked if he's travellin' and we see him
I can't lie, I was depressed at phases
I was 19 when the team nearly left him faceless
Hopin' that we never left no traces
You know when you're so damn tired in your house
But you can't sleep cah you got pendin' cases
I used to love temptin' fate, but now it's temptin' faces
For half my career I was part of that
My best friend got a burner and it's lookin' like an artifact
Put it in your puffer or your Prada hat
Like fukk panic, that's a heart attack
Yeah, it's like life's so fukked in the time that were in
We're fightin' the world and we're fightin' within
Somali dad just ran away from a war
Now his son's in a war, that's the cycle we're in
I know n1ggas that didn't do time in the bin
That have never had freedom of mind, are you sick?
'Round here main way to provide for your kin
Is in a flick blade, little push-bike, and a sim
In London, a place where it's nicer to live
Is only five minutes out from the guys on a strip
Where man make yay work
Heard he a soldier
I know that n1gga hasn't got balls like Grey Worm
As I grow older, change of perspective
I gotta stay loyal to my girl, that's the trait she was blessed with
Restaurants, raves with my bredrins
Life's too short, so we gotta turn up
Man talk on my ting for the 'Gram, it's intrusive
I never really thought about taking a life
Till I found out my ex-girl's dad is abusive
I felt how I coulda be a man and not do sht?
I'm on the way there now and I don't wanna lose it
But fightin' her battles only hurtin' the girl
How can I protect her from the world
When I couldn't even protect her from myself?
On my grandmother's grave, sh1t happens again
I put a knife through a family friend
Most the women that I know had sh1t happen to them
So innocent 'til guilty ain't somethin' that I have to respect
I think back to my youth and I was so ungrateful
How many of our parents had dreams they abandoned
So they could put food on the table
Intelligent, worthy and able
That's somebody's parent
You know?
And that affected the way that I see sh1t
Nightclub toilet, you peed on the seat
'Cause you don't know how it feels when your mum's gotta clean sh1t
And her boss treats her like she don't ever mean sh1t
And she gotta wait for the bus in the rain and it's freezin'
And Miss said that you won't ever be sh1t
And you don't wanna cry about dad but you need him
I grew up so fukked, but I didn't even deep it
I'm numb to the feelin' of grievin'
And man gettin' birded
African mums on the floor just screamin'
It's mad cah I try so hard
Death's gotta be easy cah life's so hard
I was 12 wishin' that I was a white man, hard
Cah if I was then they probably wouldn't life mans dargs
I was dead broke, fam, I couldn't swipe man's card
And time might pass, but I still gotta stay with it
It wasn't his beef, but I see him try claimin' it
That's why he caught a bullet with another man's name on it
Now he can't do leg day or put strain on it
Every time you hear me freestyle I put pain in it
l used to wonder does God have favourites?
Touch me it's dangerous
I wouldn't play with it
'Cause you can go sleep and have a different type of wake for it
I miss my dargs, unstable
You violate Chris, then rah I turn Chris Benoit
Have him hit from far, nah
Fill him up with bricks and glass, nah
My young Gs will grip, then blast
Have you tried in the street? Fukk findin' my feet
I could ride, but I'm better when I'm ridin' a beat
My emotions are peak, it ain't a sign of defeat or the weak
I woulda ex3cute you,then cried in my sleep
Dropped just two racks and told him buy the machine
I'm Lebron in Miami, I provide for the heat
God strike me if I'm lyin', I ain't cryin' in this beef
Unless a tear's comin' tatted on the side of my cheek
I provide for my peeps, the Lamb' white in the seats
So I'm literally a wolf disguised in a sheep
You have five figure dreams, I have five figure sleep
Five hours more than enough time that I need
Man want a fair fight, but I ain't on it when we see him
Fukk honour, this revolver is onomatopoeic
Let it stut-tut-tut-tut-tutter when you see him
Free Scalez, free C and free my n1ggas till I see 'em
I wouldn't wanna be him
My old Gs roamin', I don't need a colosseum
You see it?
So I'm playin' it good
Let hood politics stay in the hood
Fukk the internet
You see, this new generation, they're Insta' beefin'
And I ain't into speakin'
When I ducked down, I had him runnin' in the lifts
Like he missed a meetin'
There's no good reason to risk your freedom
We're All Alone In This Together+The yutes dem snitchin' and b*****s sneakin'
She don't wanna talk 'bout friendship
She just wanna deal with the pipe like I'm fixin' leakin'
And sleep with a legend like Chrissy Teigen
Where I'm from the word "life" has a different meanin'
Man smile in your face but them n1ggas schemin'
Try involve me in a flaky dealin'
Sistine Chapel, I'ma paint the ceilin'
I been violated and I hate the feelin'
That's why nowadays man hates the preachin'
We smile in the visit cah we ain't defeated
The Supreme Court's where my mates appealin'
I can't breed that girl, that's torture
South London, it's just slags on a corner
And influencers tryna bag them a baller
She a gold digger, I can tell from her aura
The socials say princess, she a pauper
When it's time for it, need more for my daughter
Call me a talker
But man are gettin' lined like lambs in a slaughter
It's life-threatening, I can tell from the borer
Cut through a n1gga like a knife through flora
Feds got the guys on a case and they stalk us
It's a conspiracy like tin foil hats and a new world order
Touch me, you better have a life insurer
Bloodthirsty, I got sharks in the water
And, trust me, I know a killer well, no orca
Have you ever seen a nightmare brought to life?
Where I'm from you get cheffed on a normal night
Man talk on my name but it's porkie pies
We're All Alone In This Together+I really put it in a nigga like a porcupine
Little bro wanna save for a 45
Go board a flight
There's more to life
Youts on the M6 all the time
We don't need TFL for a northern line
All the best politicians been taught to lie
Where do they buy c*****e when they're snorting whit
Are their dealers safe or on the border line?
It's ironic cah we don't know where to draw the line
Man see Blue Story, they're mortified
Man see Scarface and it's glorified
'Cause when you're black everything gets scrutinised
That why they call it Urban, it gets euphemised
South London, man are gettin' euthanised
I see a yout's demise, I wasn't too surprised
He got soaked but his right hand scuba dived
Don't die by a sword that you used to shine
You can drown for your king, you don't know about Ophelia
Cah we got iron, I don't know about anaemia
I took the hard road, we don't know about the easier
One bag of whores and paraphernalia
When ends gettin' sticky had a flicky with Amelia
I mean Olivia
This ain't Libya
This ain't Syria
You act sillier, we let it seep in your skin like Nivea
Who wants to be a millionaire? I won it
Never done a game show or trivia
I done Wandsworth, Erlestoke visitor
I done Spring Hil, Grendon
Swinfen, Whitemoor
Swaleside, Brixton visitor
I done M-way trips, done sh1t that I wish I never did
Becah I could have been a prisoner
Is this the sh1t that appeals to the listeners?
Road ain't no amazing life
The ends full of snakes and jail's just a waste of time
I tell my young Gs take your time
Fukk jazz, you can really see a major nine
Yo, I'm so ashamed of how I used to get figures
Man sell you a dream like the road ting's lit
And then he leave out the parts where you're burying your n1ggas
We're All Alone In This Together+Or in jail wonderin' who's puttin' shit inside your missus
We're All Alone In This Together+I'm so ****ing determined
I was in intensive care when I was born
Mummy fell down the stairs
Whether I was gonna live or not was suttin uncertain
I use the word "fell' with the commas inverted
You see growin' up I had it far from perfect
But nobody did, so I'm a normal person I gotta be grateful
We all have demons and all see angels
Or maybe it's me
A black yout's more than a face on a screen
A number on a laptop or name on a sheet
We got stories to tell and got places to be
From my heart that's the makin' of me
[Outro]
I was really about to lose
I sat on my hands
I struggled 'cause I didn't want to suffer again
I just wanted, didn't wanna make my son upset
I went to [?], they sent me back
I tried so much, we have no strength
I was in detention counsel for months, I didn't give up
I was not even twenty when I left Africa
I was determined to survive
I was determined to survive
I didn't have anybody, nobody was ready to help me
You was six weeks old, this is when we left from Africa
I was on the streets for three years
Nobody let me eat, nobody in this nation
I couldn't pay my rent, gettin' deported
I didn't give up, I carried on everywhere
