[Intro: Laurie, Isaac]
Wait, Isaac
Have you ever been to Mote Park in Maidstone when it's shut down?
No
It's so lovely
[Chorus: Isaac, Isaac & Laurie]
Man's never been in, it's shut down
That's not me and it's shut down
Ring, ring, ring and it's shut down
Fashion week and it's shut down
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it's shut down
Touch the road and it's shut down
Boy Better Know when it's shut down
[Verse 1: Isaac]
Yeah, take time
If a man wanna try me, no time
Usain Bolt when I run up on stage
I pick up the mic and it's reload time
Don't know your songs, but they know mine
That's why I got gigs just like Joe Grind
After the show, I be rolling mine
Don't care bout the "No Smoking" sign
They try to steal my vision
This ain't a culture, it's my religion
God knows I don't wanna go prison
But if a man wanna try me, trust me, listen
Me and my Gs ain't scared of police
We don't listen to no politicians
Everybody's on the same mission
We don't care about your -isms and schisms
[Chorus: Isaac, Isaac & Laurie, Laurie]
It's shutdown
That's not me and it's shut down
Ring, ring, ring and it's shut down
Fashion week and it's shut down
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it's shut down
Touch the road and it's shut down
Boy Better Know when it's shut down
[Verse 2: Isaac, Laurie]
You wanna act like a G for the camera
You say you're Muslim, you say you're Rasta
Say you don't eat pork, don't eat
Liar, you're just a actor
Blud, you're not on your deen
And if Selassie saw you, he would say
"Blud take off the red gold and green"
Them man are soft just like ice cream
Seen? Start moving correctly
If you don't wanna upset me, you get me?
You tryna show me your Fendi?
I told you before, that don't impress me
Respect me
When you see the mandem are selling out Wembley
Roll deep in a blacked-out Bentley
Pull up outside like, "Wah gwan, sexy"
[Chorus: Isaac, Isaac & Laurie]
Yeah, it's shut down
That's not me and it's shut down
Ring ring ring and it's shut down
Fashion week and it's shut down
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it's shut down
Touch the road and it's shut down
Boy Better Know when it's shut down
[Skit: Laurie]
A bunch of young men all dressed in black
Dancing extremely aggressively on stage
And it made me feel so intimidated
And it's not what I expect to see on primetime television
[Verse 3: Isaac]
Uh, I'm in a different class
When I get through I'ma bring my dargs
2 by 2, man a walk on the ark
Sittin' at the front just like Rosa Parks
Trust me, you don't wanna see me get dark
Upset 'cause man are way up right now
And this all happened, oh, so fast
I was in Paris, shut down l'Arc
New York, shut down Central Park
Talk about London
Oi, Laurie, where should I start?
Walked in, spat ten sixteen bars
And each and every one of them came from the heart
None of my lyrics are stolen
"Go on then, go on then," that's my slogan
Wanna know how I did it with no label?
No A-list songs and I told them
[Chorus: Isaac, Isaac & Laurie]
Yeah, I just shut down
That's not me and it's shut down
Ring, ring, ring and it's shut down
Fashion week and it's shut down
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it's shut down
Touch the road and it's shut down
Boy Better Know when it's shut down
Yeah, I shut down
That's not me and it's shut down
Ring, ring, ring and it's shut down
Fashion week and it's shut down
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it's shut down
Touch the road and it's shut down
Boy Better Know when it's shut down
