Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We still get the work in large amounts
Got something coming that I can't announce
You know the food taste good when you're staring at a menu that you can't pronounce
This winter white truffle cost me half and ounce
Home-wrecker flows, it's guaranteed to make your partner bounce
It's a horror up in our accounts
Whiles your money froze, it's running Os
That's how we started out
I saw the angel in the marble and I carved it out
Now look at me chiselled like DaVinci reappeared in '93
I found my inner Preston and I went and set him free
Now we the Black Beatles, let it be
I'm from South London where them boys die by the hundreds
No one taught us how to mourn, so we go print them on our jumpers
Back when Mega had a TT, hood dreams
Didn't even know what it was called, but it looked clean
Used to wear the suede Wallabees till my foot leaned
Fifty-inch telly courtesy of my buj fiend
You can pay me in electronic devices
Stormz ain't nice, but he's the nicest
Even back when I was selling Miley Cyrus
Put a premium on my prices
Sick like a virus
Ahh, don't make me do it like my stylist
I hear top-boy talk from a bunch of quarter-finalists
Real **** living through a bitch **** crisis
Yeah, I grew up in the jungle, on the grid with Martin Brundle
My hairline's the only thing that keeps a **** humble
God knew what he was doing when he made me
Unforgettable, just check the swag, I'm on my Swae Lee
I told Jermaine I could be the Kung Fu Kenny to your Dave Free
Just be the Ty Ty to my Jay-Z
They pree, they pree
I get Lizzy and I stay flee
These new **** lit, but they just ain't me
Ahh, I skrrr through it like I'm Sir Lewis
You nerds had it, but you nerds blew it
So I just got to it
They take shots, but I bop through it
I dodge through it like I'm Rod Stewart
If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
The flow's crystal meth, let me flip it like I'm Jesse
I control it like I'm Walter White
Tell my mum-in-law I treat her daughter right
She don't half the rent or ever sort a flight
I love her up and hold her tight
Mwah mwah mwah, gimme kiss
Pretty little miss
I tell her what it is
Babe, I take you shopping even though I take the piss
I'm only joking, girl, I'm silly like this kettle on my wrist
Watch dumb, car dumb, cribs dumb, soon done
If my money spoke, he'll say "Fee fi fo fum"
I hit home runs
No smoke, no guns
No smoke
Must be puns
I'm still good in both lungs
It's the calm before the storm
I go Bulgari for my jawn
Half a mil' on jackets that I've hardly ever worn
Better check the fee before you ask me to perform
July 26th, that's the day a star was born
It's the arena-packer
Way back when I used to pree Natasha
Ask Fatch, yeah, I've been a masher
They wanna race, but I'm Dina Asher
I bring a whole heap of passa
The flow's from God but the *kmt*
It's Big Mikey, but I'm more Spinelli
She got the Evelyne, I prefer the Kelly
I got the Oak, but I prefer the Skelly
Well done, girl, you hit the belly
I gotta tone it down on Graham Norton
All this swag can't fit on telly
I skrrr round on my big Pirellis
Them man are actors, I should give them Emmys
Them man are washed, hang 'em out to dry
If man are lit, then what the fuck am I?
I must be doing something right
Hell, yeah, fucking right
Heavy kettle, but it's suttin light
I told Mel do my button tight
Gotta look clean when I'm getting my award
They wonder how I shine, that's the presence of the Lord
They wanna know my scent, ****, that's Tom Ford
They wanna know the shows and the places that I've toured
They wanna know "Stormz, don't you ever get bored
Rappin' 'bout things that you know we can't afford?"
Ahh, it's Big Mike, the one to shed a light on a rapper's insecurity
I ain't like you, I need security
I'm too lit and too rich
Gotta stay drip for continuity
The boy's too sick, I need immunity
Them boys are too slow, but I'm Bolt or I'm Shelly-Ann
I fill her up like a jerrycan
I shoot like a Steadicam
I got kids, but my chick ain't had no belly scan
Look, I'm a father for many man
Boy
