[English]

Don't even get me started.

When I walk for the block,

I feel like the man, it feels like a nigga just charted.

My nigga double R will clap him out on the ride with the nine, I'm dancin'.

My bro got a bird like partridge.

But he got locked on Raven.

T got nicked for the shavin'.

18 years, but his lawyer just saved him.

Watch out for them noisy neighbors.

I can't afford me a raid.

I'm in a bando with Tiny Slipz, I'm in country, far away.

I dashed that pack cah I just saw Ds.

I can't afford to be in the cage.

My block go dead every time on a raid.

Don't get me started.

Slipz just smashed up a opp in Thameside,

I had his in ISIS laughin'.

Free SB, that's what broski told him.

These times ain't lastin'.

Man gave him a trim like Daley, now he didn't need no barber.

Now he didn't need no.

Stepped on the wing, who's on to the zone?

No, done me a drill, was it me or bro?

Man put my foot down, 110 on the mo's.

Step on the floors, ain't nuttin' about boats.

Jakes took one to the throat.

took one to the dome.

1500, we been on smoke.

Don't even get me started.

I just flew off my bruck back, I saw one ute, now the nine-millimeter's dancin'.

Me and Double R locked down on the wing,

couldn't wait 'til the mandem's chantin'.

I just flew off my bruck back, shh got bored,

went back to the bando, laughin'.

Don't even get me started.

I just flew off my bruck back, I saw one ute,

now the nine-millimeter's dancin'.

Me and Double R locked down on the wing,

couldn't wait 'til the mandem's chantin'.

I just flew off my bruck back, shh got bored,

went back to the bando, laughin'.

Don't even get me started.

That man held corn 'til we started blastin'.

Shank on hip, but the nine-millimeter made a yard man dash,

they're screamin' out 'Bumbaclart'.

Don't lose your life in a whip,

cah suttin' got put in a coffin.

You better clap your mash,

cah my niggas gon' aim and block it,

man ain't on talkin'.

This beef ain't done yet, bring all the sirens out near Hoxton market.

My Homer and niners still tryna feed all the lifers.

Who hit the target?

Now the bird that they gave's all darkness.

Then my white boy turned the town like he's Kilo,

make sure your blade been sharpened.

Give him a ching if he ain't from Hoxton.

Listen.

Don't even get me started.

I just flew off my bruck back, I saw one ute, now the nine-millimeter's dancin'.

Me and Double R locked down on the wing, couldn't wait 'til the mandem's chantin'.

I just flew off my bruck back, shh got bored, went back to the bando, laughin'.

Don't even get me started.

I just flew off my bruck back, I saw one ute, now the nine-millimeter's dancin'.

Me and Double R locked down on the wing, couldn't wait 'til the mandem's chantin'.

I just flew off my bruck back, shh got bored, went back to the bando, laughin'.
