Racing down Ilford Lane going home
Thinking about should I try to fake a fall
You seem to think that youre all alone
And nothing ever could change it all
Think about the words that you said.
Yeah, silence on my estate
Cassette player chewed up my cassette tape
Blisters from the control pad
Cuz I was on the Mega Drive more time
If youre feeling me put your pinot grigio high
This ones for my Gs in the North side Racing down Ilford Lane going home
All my Gs on the East side
This one for my Gs in the West side Thinking about should I try to fake a fall
My Gs on the South side
The late king Michael Jackson doing the moon walk on the telly
And I was like whos bad
Sittin there smoking, sipping MD 2020 thinking I was the man
Mums upset because I havent given her a penny
But I just got a 20 bag
Mum dont stress, you know I told you already
Imma to do it for you and dad
So I was out on the grind
On the 279
Trying to show my songs to the world
Inspired by the streets
Fell in love with the beats
I never had time for a girl
I never really cared about a hair cut
I was in the club doing the 2-step
Wishing it was me on the decks
Wanted to do it for the love it took some
Perseverance and discipline
Couldnt wait to get the whole world listening
I remember when I first went radio
Couldnt believe it was in the kitchen
Your mixing and reality kicks in
Smoking to calm my nerves and settle me down
It feels like Im in a crystal maze
Somebody give Richard Crystal and get me out
In 1 mile Ive seen 2 fights, blue tape, blue lights
Single mom struggling with the push chair
She had a bad mouth but she had good hair
Stole a phone in the shop getting looked at
Barbershop, hairlines getting pushed back
Guys lookin at me like they wanna fight me
Just another day on the high street
Yeah… and now im back on the estate
My CD keeps skippin when i press play
Full memory cards full of music
Cause i was on the playstation more time
If youre feeling me put your pinot grigio high
This ones for my Gs in the North side Racing down Ilford Lane going home
All my Gs on the East side
This one for my Gs in the West side Thinking about should I try to fake a fall
My Gs on the South side
