You're not alone
I'll wait 'til the end of time 
(Rah, it's BKay, you know)
Open your mind
Surely it's plain to see

Hit OT, a track superstar
Crystal Palace, brrap-brrap-brrap
Linford Christie Stadium
Ev-every Tuesday, flaggin' a boy
Athletes lowkey cappin' a lot
Croydon College, stackin' like, what?
Love so big, I'd give him my all
East or South, we're dreamin' it all

Body hot like cookin' for long
We like to make love like wildest of dogs
I was on his side, fifty-five to making a prof'
Body hot like cookin' for long
We like to make love like wildest of dogs
I was on his side, East or South, we're dreamin' it all

Ran towards the light thought I could find (yeah)
Somethin' bigger than the town that I had left behind
I remember packin' up my bags, not sayin' my goodbyes
Walsall used to be a place I'd only ever start my dreams in
But home is where my heart is
Feel so alone in a city so big
'Cause I used to know the person that lived at 23
And try and smell the flowers that weren't on the Caldmore green
Gettin' off the six at Oyster just to spend my thirty P

And I, I was just gettin' to know myself
The city, it broke me in
Inside, dialin' my confidence up
About my hair and my skin, yeah

You're not alone
I'll wait 'til the end of time
Open your mind
Surely it's plain to see

Hit OT, a track superstar
Crystal Palace, brrap-brrap-brrap
Linford Christie Stadium
Ev-every Tuesday, flaggin' a boy
Athletes lowkey cappin' a lot
Croydon College, stackin' like, what?
Love so big, I'd give him my all
East or South, we're dreamin' it all (listen)

Had to clean out my heart, mind, body and soul
That London city's my home
She love Mayfair, come, babe, peek at your toes
Build bricks in the sticks, can we remake dough?
Invest in my flow 
Tell my young boy look in your book and glow
Back then used to boot, like we do up pro
Now it's Finsbury Park from the bruk back days
Cah we shell down shows (shows)
Should I choose that Gucci or LV coat?
Yo, I'm black in the hood, unclothed
The bando's boomin', my pastry comes from rotatin' phones
Gon' step to the hoods, gon' clear
So much patience is greatness, call me bacon toast
Don't go score, practice means perfect
Girl, if you don't know, leave it to me, I'm cool

Started out a country girl, wiry-haird and happy-grinned
Had to change a couple of schools 'cause I wasn't fittin' in
Ticket straight to London, dream it big and let it grow
Just so you know

Feel so alone when the city gets cold
I've known that I'd make it since I was a young girl
The world is right there, I hear it calling
But home is a place that makes my heart sing

You're not alone
I'll wait 'til the end of time
Open your mind
Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone
I'll wait 'til the end of time for you
Open your mind (open your mind)
Surely it's time to be with me
