Splurt Diablo - London lyrics

[Intro] Dawn in the east end of London And three miles east of St Paul's, the start of another busy day for one of the last real street markets left in this part of the capital Roman Road, Bow [Verse 1] They call it capital of the globe That's the weight of having something to probe Plus the government cat for tax They don't wanna see the youth in control So they throw 'em in flats for cash And police always love to start sh** But they say the mandem are heartless Like we didn't go school, play a part Until we departed And the kids are poor, and want to war Cause they watch too much telly The control is widespread, not remote We've seen it already You just gotta make that big bang Before you end up chasing pennies And I know I love my city But I know n***as are out to get me [Hook 1] In London, London London And I know I love my city But I know n***as are out to get me In London, London London And I know I love my city [Verse 2] Local authority hate on us Put us in estates and label us gangs An easy way of finding us On TV, they pretend to be so kind with us But that ain't fine with us Anytime we think we can change it They're back in our ends reminding us They'd rather see us picking sides Than be onside with us Link my Gs by the caff Cause that's where the egg and bacon is Anytime there's crime, we get the blame for it And they get paid for it So many people falling off I guess they wasn't made for it I know it ain't dangerous But I make sure that my life ain't taken [Hook 2] In London, London, London I know it ain't dangerous But I make sure that my life ain't taken In London, London, London I know it ain't dangerous [Verse 3] Congestion charge is a b**h Everyone says they're loyal But for the right price, they switch It must be a London thing (f** it) I don't know what it is Might see us post on the strip Smoking spliffs, plus we're equipped (got that) Some man do this image ting But others try to get rich They'd rather see who's popular Who's f**ed whose girl, who's knocked her up Youngers get worse every year And that's cause no one hots them up Truthfully, I love the ends I try tell this to my country friends But anytime I bring them to ends They tell me "London's not for us" [Hook 3/Outro] London, London And I know I love my city But I know n***as are out to get me In London, London London I know it ain't dangerous But I make sure that my life ain't taken London's not for us Truthfully, I love the ends I try tell this to my country friends But anytime I bring them to ends They tell me "London's not for us" (In the east end of London)
