Never been baptised
I was in school with a slack tie
Totally confused when that guy
Asked me why I was black and my dads white
I came home like 'mum have you got time'
'Why am I black and my dads white'
She explained that my real dad was a bad guy that sold bare d** up in moss side
I just couldn't believe it
Ran up the stares and shut the door, and I just cried
Prayed to the Lord, please let it be a bad dream and a part of me just died
My whole up bringing was a bad lie
I need answers, let me find this guy
So I got on the phone
Forget about 118, I need more than a helpline
And then I met my dad
Black tints on a gold GTI it was that clean
All my life, the incredible hulk couldn't turn that green
The interior was leather and cream
First guy that I ever seen smoke weed
Charles Bronson couldn't live this good if he had a million on his canteen
Told me that he sold CD's, as his head nodded to Alisha Keyes
Picture that atmosphere, my stepdad had a Mini Cooper from the 80s
And then we drove to the hood, on Princess Park where i've seen a million faces
Until we met my brothers Juscienio and Pierre , my heart was racing
Second to youngest brother, that and my stereotype made me like Mike from the Jackson 5
Fell inlove with the road so much, came home and I never slept that night
Went to school the next day, untucked my shirt and dashed my tie
Walked through the corridor, just to show them I was a warrior
I started a fist fight with a guy that stabbed me with a screw driver
2 years earlier its that time, show them that I was a ride or die
And showed them that they're not about that life
Walked onto the estate, my heart beating, and you could see fear in my eyes
Shaking, rattling like a broken bike
But see when I won that fight, ey Darkee tell them how I won that fast
I'm not copying Bane when I say nobody knew me till I wore that mask
Walked back to Aaron's and Dane's and soaked my hands in an ice cold bath
'Cus I broke my knuckles
Started wearing carbon gloves cus with an axed like Kung-Fu Hustle
Yo, when I was about 9 and a half
Asked my mum for a GameBoy Advanced
6 months later, woke up on my birthday to a gold fish in a fish tank
I'm not tryna be ungreatful, I'm just tryna explain why I'm unstable
Went into school in all black like the undertaker and threw a man through a table
Pissed off, I won't go into that, cus the JDZmedia is the video that got em ga**ed
Half a million views later and I'm carrying Manchester on my back
I've come here to put Manny on the map
Set man tribe with a bally and a strap
They wrote the gang war book and its mad, cus my family's in the middle of that
I've got bare drug money but I don't sell crack
'Cus I don't wanna get blasted like 2Pac
I'm gonna get the Kawasaki Ninja soon, and bring out the machine in a rucksack
I'm not Mohammed Ali, but I've been stinging man like a bee from way back
Turns out that my Dad wasn't on point, spent every penny that he made in the trap
Ask me if he could lend 2 grand, thats them money that I'm never getting back
But now I'm the one with a leather interior, hes just an Aspen
Somebody get Charlie a gasmask, cus I won't just set fire to the booth
I'll set fire to the building and it's staff
You're gonna need more than Fire Man Sam
Make man backflip like Jackie Chan
And you're looking at Bugzy Malone, the grime scene mafia boss, Al Capone
You might see me laughing alot
It's cus I've turned 24 and I've got more money than flows
Paint pictures with words and I paint them just like Pablo Pi-Ca**o
Somebody go let the grime scene know that it's not just Stormzy who can get a reload
It's not just London
I'm not talking Lord of the Mics when I say I spent 07 in the dungeon
I was in a wing with n***as from Tuckston, n***as from Answorth, n***as from Brixton
Listening to a Devilman CD, until man told me he was snitching, you will get a Wu Mi Lung Chu Win Sen
Yo, and I dare any one to climb this mountain
I come from Manchester and I'm shouting
Loud and proud so they can hear me where Akkies eat soak fish and plant ting [?]
Don't think that I can't get a million views cus I come from council housing
I'm already on 600,000
This one goes out to the English teacher who was sat ranting and raving
Told me that I wasn't concentrating
But now they know me in Copenhagen
Road smokey a little bit like bacon
Turn into the devil and just, yo-
If anybody in the building is hating I just turn into the devil and waste them
Being on this level is frustrating, cus girls wanna know my name and snapchat my face like I'm famous
But I know how to play this game
So nowadays man just smile and wave, as long as they know their place on stage
Theres level to this sh**
They're like a .38 , I'm like a pump action 12 gauge
Blow out your speakers, blow out your brains
'Cus this year mans on a different wave
Five O couldn't chase me cus I drive through the estate like it's a crystal maze
Do you know the noise what a pistol makes?
Are you on this have you licked one raze?
Gunchester is the home of the brave
And whats why man with a-
Yo, I said hold on , hold on ,yo wait
It's B-Loke's birthday and theres no way, I'm gonna let my man stand in the background
Come to the front, let me play one
