Verse
I've seen different walks in life
That's why I can sit and chat to the rich folk
Same time I can sit and chat to my jiggas on the
Ends tryna build a new yard off a brick phone
I'm tryna show man there's world OUT
SIDE of the ends and it's more than big bro
Aint nothing left in the manor apart from more
Jailtime CCTV and Big Bro
And I know about Hunger, Real life
Hunger, Been on my face and I've been Broke
Been tired been stressed out and I've been Low
But I still did my ting thats how shit goes
I swear some man must think it's a
Joke when I tell em I started on Zero,
One box room no heating just a white-
Board never had no AC or windows
Them times I was grinding I holla'd at
Millz on a Monday morning for info,
Tuesday no money yet I'm in Limbo
Wednesday I gotta get it in like Sisqo
Bare times Maxine got the rent late cos we
Told her we couldn't remember the pin code
By the time Thursday come around I was coming
Back to the spot with a hand full of pink notes
Grafter, can't say I don't get it in that's
Slander, Lickle man spare me the insult
4 years later it's different and now they wanna
Bread man tell their friends that we're kinfolk
Wait one sec, Where've you been though?
When I was down and out you weren't involved
Didn't wanna know me before but now you're pho-
Ning me so much I'm getting sick of my ringtone..
A girl from my past said I should take her
Out cos she thinks I'm a star like ringo I
Laughed and I said F*ck sliding Im tryna slide
Out with ease no strings like a plimsoll
Say what you want you can call me a
Bastard you could say I got a big ego
But you can't dash man and then come back a
Round girl you must be smoking the indo
Coulda had a piece of the pie from the intro
Dipped out now you wan' slice like Kimbo
I done told you - don't come looking for a
Buyback - carry on doing your ting though
You didn't know I'm that guy you're a bit slow
Me not knowing my worth that's an insult
..And f*ck Jeeves.. man better go and ask
Eddie if you wanna know how long I been cold
Anybody better than Jammz - I don't think so
I was getting reloads in my school disco
Now I drop tunes and my Spotify numbers
Rise up so I gotta big up my Distro
And I soon see money from my label I
Told em its I Am GRIME not CALYPSO
I ain't gonna stop till I got big girl and a
Bigger yard chilling in Santo Domingo
I've been humble for way too long,
When I buss first thing I'm buying is a mink coat
Just so I can flex like Camron in Dipset
And change my government name to Flamingo
Revenge is a dilute drink cos its
Dark and sweet same time like a vim
So if you wanna plot on my downfall
Cool I'll pass you the cup - have a drink bro
