I don't know why man's
Calling me family all of a sudden like hmm
My mum don't know your mum
Stop telling man you're my cousin
I got day ones and I got new ones
No fake ones trust no one
It's Boy better know till I die
Tryna run up in the bank like Bonnie and Clyde

Cause man get money with the gang
Man get girls with the gang
Man eat food with the gang
Man talk slang so the feds can't work out what
I just said to a man
Told me you was a big fan
But the first thing you said when you saw me is
Can I get a pic for the gram
I was like nah sorry man
I only socialize with the crew and the gang

Woah guess who's back
Came a long way from sitting in the flats
Came a long way from
When whites never used to mix with blacks
Now all my white niggas and my black mates
We got the game on smash
I used to rate your page on MySpace
But you never stayed on track
Upset cause your wife is a fan
She done with a little boy
Now she wants to be with a man
Told my accountant do me a transfer
Cause I wanna buy some land
You and I have got different plans
Real mad man I might go Saint Ann's
No Triple A pass no wristbands
You are not man dem you are not gang

Tracksuit mafia boy better know
My ones my team
Meridian bad blocks
London boys active boys
You get me

Man get money with the gang
Man get girls with the gang
Man eat food with the gang
Man talk slang so the feds can't work out what
I just said to a man
Told me you was a big fan
But the first thing you said when you saw me is
Can I get a pic for the gram
I was like nah sorry man
I only socialize with the crew and the gang

They wanna see me drown
Tryna hold the man dem down
Cause I shutdown Shoreditch car park
And I got bars like Camden Town
Out there tryna survive on the streets
Trying not to get killed by the police
And I be schooling MC's
Nobody leaves till half-past-three
This year I'mma teach them a lesson
Tell Grace don't reply to those emails
Nah I don't wanna do no sessions
It's like them man have got an obsession
With my style of expression
But in public never hear my name mentioned
Catch them at the nightclub entrance
Always seeking attention
But I be inside tryna get burse
Looking all cool like Herc
Dressed like I just come from P E
You're dressed like you just come from church
Better do your research
You don't wanna hear my verse come after your verse
MCs act brand new cause they got a little money in their purse
So you had a good solo career
Had a few big songs over the years
Back then you was a real top boy
But right now fam nobody cares
Walked in the club everybody's like
Who is he why is he walking around with security
You know the postcode when you're talking road
Better know that I speak that fluently

I don't know why man's
Calling me family all of a sudden like hmm
My mum don't know your mum
Stop telling man you're my cousin
I got day ones and I got new ones
No fake ones trust no one
It's boy better know till I die
Tryna run up in the bank like Bonnie and Clyde

Cause man get money with the gang
Man get girls with the gang
Man eat food with the gang
Man talk slang so the feds can't work out what
I just said to a man
Told me you was a big fan
But the first thing you said when you saw me is
Can I get a pic for the gram
I was like nah sorry man
I only socialize with the crew and the gang
