Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Kev skate, fresh out the box from Louis.

Five of them chose with a Lyan and Scott, they stitched my jeans with three.

You ain't ever 'bout to weigh down a pig and then go back.

Onyo Shankou G.

XY cocked and loaded.

The bells that we had there ain't no light 'Strui'.

I had Nisa bagging up grub, bros coming like Tariq.

Coming like Effie.

Cos their life's in danger, choi got big smoke, Jamie Sky.

Free KTT got grub two smokes.

He used to have it out here lying in Lenny.

A lot of ballers in London, 'shish' got.

He got shanked up from 'Crackie'.

Pow!

That's how it's sounding.

He ain't dead but I'm tryna pronounce him.

They say 'rap' but I really pronounce him.

Duffy went swimming.

Then he went drowning when I was the standoff, I'm his towny.

I left his tool like C was grinding.

You can't ask how many I gave him.

I gave him a few like say I was counting.

Shit B's and a meme 'quein' 24 hours at peace for Gino.

On the road they did some bust down.

Heppy and Joes with the beans on the G shot.

Lot of 'weg' glasses so I can see opps.

I need a load out something like beatbox.

Cardi 'nigh' should be shopping in Harry.

Back in the days I was shopping in peacock.

Had a bad B, got the fours in the club.

We are known on black.

The Queens are swag.

My little bros really try to lift one up.

Like Fat Joe.

Who's leaning back?

Still for the nibs, with a Lambo truck.

I'm feeling like pasta and spank.

I was on a work out, feeling flat.

Now these pockets feeling fat.

Still can't warn with an idiot.

Bro, why you tryna do like power?

When the fuck's calm me Egan at.

Bros on a bird, and he wanna come home, off the wing tryna do a Killy and then back.

Ba-ba-back.

Yo, wait for the dogs won't affect no crack.

She don't listen to UK drill, but I still know them and I kneeks like that.

I'm outside to the streets, the thing got six and the bros like Leeks.

Walk in the dots before it's 'berlett-sies', he's now got a CC print on my sneaks.

Y'all know I'm a fish, I run out the bag, go check the receipt.

Yeah, I'm in Mayfair doing up 'Kyer'.

It was legal.

VZ my lawyer.

Me and this bad one, she don't want date night.

She wants to drug me down like soya.

Shush crack.

Didn't make it home, so it's from 'hoya'.

Hoya!

Shave up 'tossers' then we bore out a bed, and said 'I know yeah'.

Ah, I was all gas when I got down one up.

Then I got two and times that by three.

When I was young, used to step with 'Mindy'.

Then I stepped with the two times sixteen.

I was raising a fam, like a brave 'teen'.

Do you feel I can wrap up my beats with 'clean'.

Before I ever made a verse on the tape, I was out on a eight really taping.

She's got two shorties, that's my 'naughtie et toi'.

One got a face, but she got no ass.

I hate when they ratchet and I have no class.

But it's cool cuz it means I can beat 'em more fast.

After I beat her, leave that in the past.

Y'all saying she's yours, I'm saying she's ours.

The whole time she's thinking I like her.

I'm telling the whole class being a yacht.

Too much sweets, pick and mix.

Lost three smokes, that's a 15 win.

Still got the G-lock, fresh in the box.

The 'Venz' coming like a free piece and chips.

Ever since Ozzy tried 'sneek' with the dislo, know somebody been sleeping since.

Aired out his head in Aberdeen.

My set to strike with the bean and whip.

Before rap, I put the re-up in mix, two smokes, so I don't have to sleep on shit.

We put the G in GBG.

You know more time it's immediate.

And I still put the flee in flick.

Emerald diamonds, they did it with prongs.

I'm feeling like Lazo, like yeah, with a pi-er, to infinities and beyond.

One more time.
