lyrics

VERSE 1:
i moved from the gutter tryna do what i could to
provided fa my family moving that pukka
on these housing estates moving ounces of weight
out late night, counting my papes
get back to the yard breath a sigh of relief
cos any give night you could die on these streets
or get charged by police an have to lie through ya teeth
tell them a pack of lies and deny who ya be
dis life styles not nice,
some man hit the rock pipe, and some man shot white
some man got shot, other mans got knifed
some man lost life, other man got life
i aint about the money but we all need it
i aint all about the gullyness we all seen shit
i aint all about the glamour i aint all bout the glitz
im all about my manner fam i grew up in dis tip

VERSE 2
i grew up fast, i grew up quick
drinking alcoholic fluid till i threw up sick
age 14 i was drinking 4 times a week
getting paralytic doing crime on the street
drinking white lighting n special brew
for them night time fights cos it settles you
supress my night mares there proppa wild
i aint had a decent nights sleep since i was a child
i walk these streets alone, stalk these streets alone
sometimes i feel like quitting rap cos bro, talk is cheap i know
i speak in flows, where these words come from i dont really know
so even if i tried to explain you wouldn't believe me so
lets jus say, i was blessed this way
no matter what i got im always looking extra pay
extra extra read about my escapades
lets escape cos Britain's looking less than great
