Welcome to London (A Capella)

Cold when it's critical

Cool, but cynical

Maxed out, never minimal

That's how we function

Cold when it's critical

Cool, but cynical

Maxed out, never minimal

Welcome to London (yo)

That's how we function

Nobody don't trust nobody

Welcome to London (yeah)

That's how we function

That's how we function

Nobody don't trust nobody 'round here

What? Welcome to London

So, when I step to the high road

I see CCTV and cameras

They're going hard for the riches and fortunes

From the street vendors to the bankers

Boys in blue, always lookin' for a problem

There's a price to pay when you are a Black man

There's a next one pressurin' both sides

He don't give a fuck, and we call him the taxman, yo

So, welcome to London fam

Poverty we got that in abundance, fam

Some are homeless, some are reckless

You'll get fucked if you buck up on a London gang

Watch sterling a run-up in your London grands

Put work in and mash up all your London plans

You can't argue when they start charge you

Congestion, that's another London scam

Cold when it's critical

Cool, but cynical

Maxed out never minimal

That's how we function

Cold when it's critical

Cool, but cynical

Maxed out, never minimal

Welcome to London (yo)

That's how we function

That's how we function

Nobody don't trust nobody

Welcome to London (yeah)

That's how we function

That's how we function

Nobody don't trust nobody 'round here

What? Welcome to London

Flexing, but slowly we're suffering

On his name round, you see man coveting

We go hard, but we know we gonna look good

But the ego don't show where mi struggling

Cold, even though we got the teapot bubbling

Youngas on the roadside, they do the hustling

So, the street crimes always epidemic and it could

Find a real killer in the club shuffling, yo

So welcome to London, fam

Black cabs, red busses, and the white van man

They got oysters, they not just seafood

So, the boy dem can follow and see you

24 hours every day, my city don't sleep

You need P's in my city 'cause it's not cheap

Top quality has never been a guarantee

We'll extort you, your friends, and family

Cold when it's critical

Cool, but cynical

Maxed out, never minimal

That's how we function

Cold when it's critical

Cool, but cynical

Maxed out, never minimal

What the fuck do you mean next week?

Are you all right?

Come here, listen

I've done the job, and I want my fucking money now

So fuck off, find my money, come back

Put it in me hand, and then fuck off

Welcome to London ya mug
