[FAT RONALDO]
[Hook]
I feel a lotta pain
I found a lotta peace
Tell ‘em you feel a way
They got the remedy
Some of ‘em council house
Some of ‘em mezzanine
Some of ‘em made it out
Some of ‘em rest in peace
[Verse 1]
What you know about love? (what you know?)
Know lads back home that never seem to have much luck (no they don’t)
Actin’ ladies man when’s its ladies’ night down pub
Talk big game when it’s just us boys in the corner snug
Til’ one of them young wans looks
Then you go scarlet, blush (he’s going red)
See the chest puff out when the lads start pokin’ fun
Back slaps and headlocks, that’s how the youngflas hug, yeah
That’s how we show love
We talk shit ‘bout such and such
Used to have Ronaldo touch
Yeah, Fat Ronaldo, that haircut
Fuck you
Lemme talk my shit, lemme talk my shit
Buddy back me up (back him up)
If I’m tellin’ lies, gimme alibis, don’t call that bluff (where were you?)
I can tell the truth or I can entertain but not both at once (yeah)
If you’re from my way either you had dreams or you didn’t have much
[Hook]
I feel a lotta pain

[Verse 2]
What you know about hate? (what you know?)
It’s all too familiar, this life will fill your heart up with pain (yes it will and it does)
We grew resilient, good little children round these estates (little angels)
Mechanisms we learned you had to repress that rage
Let it out you get left behind or even worse you get locked away (fuck the pigs)
School in the prefab, ain’t no rehab
Told us pray (but to who?)
I spoke to god and he told me
‘What you want me to say?’
I’m nearly old as my Daddy was when he passed away (rest in peace)
But I want more from this life, I wanna gaff by the lake
Cuddled up with the wife
Want it all outta spite
Want it all outta hate
Want it all so they say
Fuck, I wish I had his life
Bet they wouldn’t feel the same if they had to walk a mile in my Nikes
I’mma get ‘em every colourway
I’ll be living hell in paradise
[Hook x4]

[Interlude]
‘Tell ‘em how you really feel’
‘Fuck that, say nothing’
‘Let ‘em in, let ‘em know’
‘Nah fuck that, they got enough shit going on themselves, fuck that’
‘They can help, there’s people that can help, they can help
‘Tell ‘em how you really feel’
‘Say nothing, fuck that’
‘Tell ‘em how you really feel’
‘Fuck that, say nothing'
‘Tell ‘em how you really feel’
‘Fuck that, say nothing’
‘Tell ‘em how you really feel’
‘Fuck that, say nothing’

[Verse 1]
Wake up
Roll outta bed
Hole in the head how I need this mornin’
Day’s fucked
Overslept
Slept in late, why the fuck I’m still yawnin’?
Some days pray I never wake up
Think of me Ma and the guilt goes through me
Swear this life is a movie
‘Groundhog Day’, Bill Murray tryna shoot me
Swear this life feels I like I had my laces tied before the race was started
Two left feet dragging on the carpet
Get shocked when you’re not disheartened
Feel like it’s just a matter of time
Before the world finds out I’m not such a nice guy
Papped in the paper, telly’s outside
Wave to the people, kiss ‘em goodbye
Don’t you hate when the whole world’s right?
Can’t lie, man, I’m not no angel
Stressed out since I was like five
From a youngfla, man, I had a plateful
Can’t love when your hearts that hateful
Crack a joke and it sounds distasteful
Tell the truth and it comes off playful
Misunderstood so the gaze got naval
Fuck all of yous, I don’t need yiz
Done being nice now it’s me and mine
Landlord’s tryna take me for an eejit
Shove this lease down the man’s windpipe
Shove these keys where the sun don’t shine
Hang ‘em upside down like the plates and lines
[Verse 2]
Seen more rolled up notes of the Queen’s face these days
Than me Ma’s seen mine
All I want in this foggy town is a decent pint for a bargain
Youngwan I can heart to heart with
These toffs don’t get my jargon
Try open up and they look at me in the pub like someone farted
Get torn up like a Tayto pack on a pub table, gone scarlet
Which one of yous wanna try start shit?
[Verse 3]
My heart was in the right place but the words came out off target, fuck
I won’t apologize for being who I am, I can’t beg no pardon
Horseback round convent gardens
Get the popcorn, the movies just startin’
