[Verse 1: DC]
Man you see the other day I was chilling with my bros and
I heard the n***a say he’s the best on the roads
See I don’t really beep my horn but if you wanna talk about the best better get me involved
See I was sitting there with Steph on the steps
And he said listen rich man you’re destined to blow
And you know that these n***as gonna hate
So I might just invest in the vest in the oh
Man you see the other day sitting in my yard and
I heard the n***a say that he’s harder than me
My n***a just quit this rap ting get a day job or go on UCAS go find a degree
20 years older to find at ya league
I remember me and jag didn’t have any p
29p couldn’t buy us them c’s
Now he’s got big german that lights up the street
And my n***as all gleam
N***as don’t know about the squad but I bet your girl knows about the team
When you hear ‘gleam’ you ain't even gotta see my face and the whole ends know that it’s me
I just came in and they noticing me if I spit a 16 is game over to me
They’re older than me they ain't colder than me
All my n***as don’t talk they don’t know the police
I was sitting with my mum she looked at my face like
“Son why’s your lips like that?” and she thinks I smoke weed
But mum I be spitting all this heat that my lips turned black
I been writing all week man it feels like a dream
I think all these things really feel my frack and he watch me on the streets
But mum that’s what happens when you grease like that
I’m just a black boy from the south of the Thames
Been a long time but I’m out here again
You see a couple n***as weren’t supporting the ting
But trust me them n***as ain't around here again
All these other rappers they can call me the king
Cos I’m rapping like I got the crown on my head
I call my n***a abs and he thought it’s a ting
If I hold down this pen till his pad man are dead
Cos you see the other day sitting in my yard
[?]
I mean there’s a few that I rate Chip, Stormzy, Skepta Konan and Krept
See when you rap about the chains and the whips and it don’t correlate to what we see in the flesh
Then I press pause see the little triangle with the line underneath then I hit the eject
I don’t even wanna hear what you’ve done on the road
What you shot what you’ve sold n***a where’s your bars
See man I heard him say he’s got a german
I see him on the road n***a where’s your car
Sound like a yout on a mic brudda are you nervous? Little n***a where’s your heart
And I see him talk tough in my mentions ill catch him on his ones n***a where’s your dargs
See what I learned from the scene is you gotta be straight up brudda it’s important
So when I don’t wanna speak man I step my last scene on so these n***as know that I ignore them
I take the risk there ain't no portion, can never be poor that ain't my portion
Cos everybody’s talking tough till it’s go time
When its show time n***as don’t spit bars
N***a I’m local
Ride for my n***as I’m local
If I blow then I bring my whole team in n***a I’m local
Look around you them n***as ain't gleaming, n***a I’m local
Them n***as ain't gleaming
