The Old Me
Yeh, Btownproductions,
It's that Btown Btown,
Come like you know me,
But You know the old me,
Work so much harder,
Live so much better,
I got it all now,
So what about you pal,
Still hung up on your crazy shit life,
Come like you know me,
But You know the old me,
Work so much harder,
Live so much better,
I got it all now,
So what about you pal,
Still hung up on your crazy shit life,
Its crazy looking back,
To the times we all sat in my flat,
Blazing away Friday nights with the lads,
Lines being made just not in a pad,
Before commitments, before being a dad,
Only worry was who were next to drop the bag,
3 of us running in all directions, trust me man it was mad,
Surprised we didnt caught it was bad,
No breaks flooding the streets of shad,
24-7 call out is what we had,
Didnt matter half the time as we were at my gaff,
With bounce tunes banging out for a laugh,
With a Little dog an akita cross staff,
Probably The only thing that loved me more than her was the network provider giff gaff,
Phone would ring I'd answer,
Sort out the bags they asked for,
The minute I put the phone down then it would ring again to be answered,
The guy on the line would apologise for coming back like cancer,
But I was like bring your mates along and il throw in an extra bag just to thank ya,
Mixing voddy with fanta,
Attitude of a wanker,
If you wernt a customer or mate there was no turning up uninvited like santa,
At that time I was a man getting about with an answer for everything,
Whilst going the right way for settling into a 5 year prison setting,
Come like you know me,
But You know the old me,
Work so much harder,
Live so much better,
I got it all now,
So what about you pal,
Still hung up on your crazy shit life,
Come like you know me,
But You know the old me,
Work so much harder,
Live so much better,
I got it all now,
So what about you pal,
Still hung up on your crazy shit life,
Yeh so a few things changed,
Few close calls got me switching lanes,
Moved house a few times to keep a clean name,
Moved to a bungalow in knuzden just to feel more sane,
Paranoid from looking over my shoulder,
All the stress got me looking older,
Walking the streets feeling awkward,
But I was attatched to the game like metal to solder,
The news came there were a baby on the way,
But this wernt the first time I'd heard the same,
Few miscarriages along the way,
Left my positivity in a messed up place,
Till I saw the scan and her little face,
Changed my life from that day,
From then Instantly began making a change,
Because No child should have to face,
That kinda life in which I'd faced,
Now I'm all about making a home that's safe,
No matter the struggle I'm in that race,
Doing whatever it takes,
It's crazy to think Too many people take a child for granted,
And carry on with their old ways,
Go for a pint after work with their mates and end up out for days,
I know a few guys like this,
Work all week, no shifts,
Come weekend same old script,
Paranoid in a kitchen talking shit,
Take no time out to help there bird with the kids,
Spending what theyve made, putting no food in the fridge,
But when shes had enough and decides to get rid,
They're the first to shout about loving their kids,
Come like you know me,
But You know the old me,
Work so much harder,
Live so much better,
I got it all now,
So what about you pal,
Still hung up on your crazy shit life,
Come like you know me,
But You know the old me,
Work so much harder,
Live so much better,
I got it all now,
So what about you pal,
Still hung up on your crazy shit life,
