Lyrics

[PreChorus]
I don't know why man's calling me family all of a sudden
Like, hmm? My mom don't know your mom
Stop telling man you're my cousin
I got day ones and I got new ones, no fake ones, trust no one
This boy better know till I die
Tryna run up in the bank like Bonnie and Clyde 'cause
[Chorus]
Man get money with the gang
Man get girls with the gang
Man eat food with the gang
Man talk slang to the Feds, can't work out what I just said to a man
Told me you was a big fan
But the first thing he said when he saw me is
Can I get a pic for the 'Gram?
I was like no, sorry man, I only socialize with the crew and the gang
[Verse 1]
Whoa, 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 **** 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 the 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 madman, I might go Saint Ann’s
No AAA, boss, no wristbands
You are not mandem, you are not gang
[Chorus]
Man get money with the gang
Man get girls with the gang
Man eat food with the gang
Man talk slang to the Feds, can't work out what I just said to a man
Told me you was a big fan
But the first thing he said when he saw me is
Can I get a pic for the 'Gram?
I was like no, sorry man, I only socialize with the crew and the gang
[Verse 2]
They wanna see me drown
Trying to hold the mandem down
'Cause I shut down Shoreditch car park
And I got bars like Camden Town
Out there trying to survive on the streets
Trying to not get killed by the police
And I be schooling MCs, nobody leaves till half past three
This year, I'ma 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 all dressed like you've just come from church
Better do your research
You don't wanna hear my verse come after your verse
MC's act brand new 'cause they got a little money in the 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 post code when you're talking road
But know that I speak that fluently
[PreChorus]
I don't know why man's calling me family all of a sudden
Like, hmm, my mom don't know your mom
Stop telling man you're my cousin
I got day ones and I got new ones, no fake ones, trust no one
This boy better know till I die
Tryna run up in the bank like Bonnie and Clyde 'cause
[Chorus]
Man get money with the gang
Man get girls with the gang
Man eat food with the gang
Man talk slang to the Feds, can't work out what I just said to a man
Told me you was a big fan
But the first thing he said when he saw me is
Can I get a pic for the 'Gram?
I was like no, sorry man, I only socialize with the crew and the gang
