Born & Raised

GUZ LALLY, JUSTIN CLARKE, NICK ARMOUR, SILVANO STUURMAN

Born and raised in a
Place that's been abandoned
So when you make it out of
Here you feel like a champion
We don't forget where we came from
But we ain't in a rush to go back
Different day, same song
I still represent my hometown

Product of my environment where
Everybody's selling drugs
So it seems like being a shotta is a
Requirement, and even if you ain't a shotta
You admire them
Feds wanna lock us in the lion's den
I done run up into my car while my baby
Mother was doing all my
Washing and my ironing those ain't pills
That's a bottle full of vitamins
The only time we dial 999 is when we
Need an ambulance or we hollering for firemen
My brudda Wallace on my mind again
Now I need a zoot and a bottle of Heineken
Drowning my sorrows and swallowing Ibufen
A lot of brothers I grew with
Are not inna my life again
If they ain't dead, then they're
Probably with the lifers, then
One day we was on the
Block playing Simon Says

Eastside resident, in and out of flats where
The fiends like heroin
Been about and back, seen everything
Bring an ounce of crack
Tell 'em it's the Led Zeppelin hard rock
We in the struggle getting fast gwop
Truth be told, it's a hustle
That we can't knock, but try and get off the
Train before the last stop
I'm one of the lucky ones
You see my previous
My father same size as a catalogue from Argos
The amount of man that I
Robbed with my mask on
I have to have a chat with
God before my heart stops
To ask him for forgiveness
I ended up doing all the
Things I used to witness
I never put myself in the shoes
Of the victims - fourteen
I was introduced to the system

They say you can't know where you're going
Unless you know where you're coming from
Well, let's just say I left footprints
And now I'm representing everybody
From the bottom, yeah
Belief and faith
