Afghan Dan - Flashback Business lyrics

[Intro] Yeah Metric, look out for this Check that, ha ha Look sh**, Bugs' Life business In the wilderness It's Danny Martin, Afghan Dan Listen No more gas, listen Look [Verse] Why get ga**ed when I could teach the streets facts Helping people get back on track by talking 'bout my past Look My mother's always liked my raps She even says the swear words She says I'm too intelligent for that Look She thinks I should be making tracks Try and tell the world a story even if it makes me look bad 'Cause lately I've been talking crap Talking ish about these MCs, dissing their mums and dads But, the people like to see me ga**ed Talking about youths getting stabbed and jacked for their bags But, the kids are listening to that And that's exactly the kind of ish that took me down the wrong path Choosing poetry over maths Behaving like a fool, handed down my comedy and cla** Watching my life rip apart and smashed like gla** Still picking up the, back from when I had to dash Rolling onto the next topic Was always getting nicked, as a kid I couldn't stop it The bad attitude I once had, I couldn't drop it I tried to find a way to zip it up but couldn't lock it 'Cause everything I tried it just never worked I ended up in prison and that's where I learnt But now I'm out here trying to make it work Just trying to squeeze my stories into a verse Listen, check Dear Isaac, I just had to let you know That even though I'm not around I think about you loads Even when my eyes are closed Lately I've been writing loads about my own But lately I've been feeling kinda cold Business is business and maybe they should mind their own What's the point in having children if you can't have your own Ha, look If you can't have your own Listen, check Well since the age of 13 I've met too many slags Shot too many bags Clocked too many grafts But I'm still on the block with my two rubber bands Wrapped 'round all my pennies Shotting food to my fans Give you roundhouse kicks like they do in Japan These Nike Air kicks, they never suited you, fam I got these all white tings and I be moving these man Won't stop 'till I've got Os in the bank Won't blow 'cause you're wa*k Burst holes in your tank n***a never know if I put holes in the man Ha, flashback business Check, look out for Metric Alright
