Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've never had love for the feds
But I've always had love for my slum
I'm addicted to these streets like a mom is to her kids
So all my people in the slum, put your hands up
See, it never used to come that easy
And I was just lying my way
I don't know how I did it but
I will carry on till I die
Yeah, and I ain't gonna lie now
[Verse 2]
Mama tried the best to bring me up right
Guess it never worked, she always cries
I was well involved in crime
From the age of nine, music got me kind of famous
Now they want a piece of pie
[Verse 3]
Blood I'm blowin' up the scene
But I don't know where my bed is
I smoke so much weed
'Cause I don't know where my head is (Fucked)
I might have some fame but I'm still low on credit
Management love the money
Someone tell me where my bread is?
[Verse 4]
I come across a lot of rich kids that die to be thugs
But I don't understand them, they're very, very loved
They don't wake up in the morning to see mom pippin' dubs
I have to worry about them goons with the .38 snubs
You got too much to lose, you're in a great position
How can you be hood
If my whole freakin' flat is smaller than your kitchen?
You wouldn't last a minute where I'm from
You'd go missin'
So appreciate what you got 'cause for that I'm still wishin'
[Verse 5]
I've never had love for the feds
But I've always had love for my slum
I'm addicted to these streets like a mum is to her kids
So all my people in the slum, put your hands up
See, it never used to come that easy
And I was just lying my way
I don't know how I did it but
I will carry on till I die
Yeah, and I ain't gonna lie now
[Verse 6]
I make broke look good
More time I supply
Just tryin' to get by
You should never ask my why I smoke till my lips split
Puff that always set me dry
To stop movin', like a criminal is what I try
But you live by the roads
By the roadside, you die
I real in every situation, make man humble like pie
I've never had love for the feds
'Cause they don't give man alibi
They holdin' me under arrest
Takin' time out of my life
[Verse 7]
Once time's taken, time can't take back
We're from a place where it's to be, and see cats
Some real most idiots
Mommy's tryin' hard, we can see that
Once the road takes the youths, they won't be back
I get love on the road, I've got feedback
Never had it, but I'm takin' the scene back
Any trap that's bangin' rubber, I weed that
Never had it, so follow along, trust, they need that
Push your hand up in the air and give me that
Freeze, rubber man
[Verse 8]
I've never had love for the feds
But I've always had love for my slum
I'm addicted to these streets like a mum is to her kids
So all my people in the slum, put your hands up
See, it never used to come that easy
And I was just lying my way
I don't know how I did it but
I will carry on till I die
Till the day that I die
[Verse 9]
Na, na, nai, hows your day?
What you want?
Same old
I'm living wrong
I'm the stud's, makin' moves
I'm on the road movin' food
Either way, we're makin' paper
Makin' paper
D-A-P's
I'm mister baker
[Verse 10]
You won't get us on your stage unless it's five bills or over
Knock your door and sell our CD like a witness form Jehovah
So wheres the bitch, Lola?
I should've brought her over
So she can suck the whole of
Finsbury Park
[Verse 11]
All my men them are dark
They're on east like the sharks
Been through so much different shit
The pain will never leave my heart
[Verse 12]
I'll make you piss your pants
Like gettin' stuck with food in your car
So I suggest you listen close
Trust me, you could be a star
[Verse 13]
So what do you think?
Do you still wanna live like me and him?
You make me sick
You talk and talk
You ain't even seen a stick
Don't be upset, why'd you have to cry?
Na, na, nai, till the day that we die
[Verse 14]
I've never had love for the feds
But I've always had love for my slum
I'm addicted to these streets like a mom is to her kids
So all my people in the slum, put your hands up
See, it never used to come that easy
And I was just lying my way
I don't know how I did it but
I will carry on till I die
[Verse 15]
I'm afraid it's all you're gettin', good night
God bless
And when you wake up in the morning
Try not to be stressed
I wish I had what you had
I ain't got none, my life's a mess
So be thankful for your situation
Stop actin' like a pest
[Verse 16]
I'm afraid it's all you're gettin', good night
God bless
And when you wake up in the morning
Try not to be stressed
I wish I had what you had
I ain't got none, my life's a mess
So be thankful for your situation
Stop actin' like a pest
