[Intro]
(I'm going in there myself
If he wants a 1 to 1 battle
He's gonna get it)

[Verse]
I was shooting in the gym, hungry from the poverty
Dropping weight like no one's spotting me
Dem boy can't copy me
Might think you're greazy, but not to me
SE4, I throw up the B
Young OG and top producer
Got the doors on lock like I lost the key
And I'm a reasoned man like Socrates
The lord is a must to me
Dem boy emulate me
I'm a father for dem and I've still got custody
New kids in the game like "Fostеr me"
Can't believе that Nov has adopted me
Real n***as nod to me
I get even, don't act odd to me
You can't be me
'Cause you don't know what it cost to be
The Borough's on the map
Don't ask where I'm from, see the colour of the rag?
Novelist, I'm gonna have grands in my old age
But nuttin like the mother of your dad
Hits got shot, I got stabbed
My boy got dropped and my guy got grabbed
That's how it goes sometimes, it's sad
Twenty-five, I'm alive, I'm glad
Had funds on the early one
My boys got a grandchild, he's thirty-one
What you think that I grind for fun?
I'm up early cuz
I heard what the birdie sung
Dont trip like say your kicks are undone
I was on Catford frontline, Lewisham frontline, Brockley frontline
Only n***as back then were the certi' ones
Heard your bar, did you put the snores in it?
Come like you got no pause in it
That's what happens when rappers are forcing it
Your flow's got no exhaust on it
I'm a cool guy, that's fortunate
This flow nobody can auction it
I won't accept your label's offer if it looks disproportionate
My boy got a samurai sword but my man's adamant that it's a ornament
It's 50 bags, you don't wanna see Raj moving like he entered a tournament
Babylon must fall again
Dont chat to Nov about "Go big"
Nov ride for the whole team like Shaun again
Make Southeast stand tall again
I've studied
One thing about big Novelist, I'm not in a hurry
This is a Daily Duppy
And I'm a ghostbuster like Bill Murray
Nationwide with money
And I've got private money
Real top boy I might side with Sully
From blue but I know guys like Skully
What you know about bible studies?
Revelation and survival studies?
A man might find this funny
But I'm serious becah the time is coming
Ain't wasting time, just bun him
Man are moving like the price is nothing'
Had a hard drive outside this system, now the archive is bussing
Check my catalogue
Bare man are chatting about sticks, you don't want a left-right-down with this analogue
Got sticks but ain't never had a dog
None of my guys are tag-alongs, or drag alongs
Or sleezy yutes that always wanna bring gyal along
Breaking bread is what my man are on
'Nough man are linking girls then start acting like their heart need Gaviscon
I don't know where these man are from
But that's not what my gang are on
Peaceful one man soldier, I don't wanna be some any gangbanger don
I'm healthy, wealthy, stealth and they called me Novelist before I had a song
