Riz MC:
'Scuse me boss, pardon me
Nah don't mind me, I'm usually lost
Hard to see
'Cause of the fool with less teeth
Dudes that froth, bark and preach
Thugs that want to spray their nine-piece
And the usual crop of wannabes
All gettin' away and hide me from public view
I'm not included
In any scene as a useful unit
Hybrid or tea, gets low YouTube hits
We do, don't know what to do with him
From ghetto, went to a top uni
[?] my pops and rave like a looney
Paki till I drop
UK till I lose it
Never fittin' in, let the beat prove it

We stay different, hahaha
(Down with it)
They stay the same
We stay different, hahaha
(Down with it)
They stay the same
We stay different, hahaha
(Down with it)
They stay the same
We stay different, hahaha
Riz MC:
Never roll with a crew or part of a scene
Or taught what to do 'cause they planted my seeds
In a faultline, so my parts in between
But they fear my becoming what they asked me to be
Took me a while to face this, get to know me but then not change it
I used to be like a social chameleon
But now I don't blend in, blatant
Track suit for de House of Commons, three-piece-suit in a rave den
My first song got banned, I [?] change dem
'Cause growin' up between the road and the rich racists, you never know whatcha place is
There wasn't one, so I made it
Wembley, Oxford, English, Asian

They stay the same
We stay different, hahaha

(Down with it)
They stay the same

Riz MC:
Remember when I first arrived and they burst[?] their eyes
Lookin' at me like I'd never survive
The tuxedos and bow ties
Sayin', "You remind me of Ali G, no lie!"
Remember the month before my bro went to war
Another world with blood on the floor
Bottles, knives, guns, raw
They rushed me so we hit the mall [?]
Remember my first premiere: "Bruv, you're on telly, yeah?"
And all the reviews was sick
But all my parents cared about was I was swearin'
None of that hype was shit
But in the end, yo, I made them proud
And alla them snobs are ravers now
The man they kicked off the [?] got dropped
And the youth that they bashed is famous now
Like wow!
