Jaykae Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who's got the ting pulled out right now in our city
We know we know
And who's repping our city?
Who talks the talk and who walks the walk in our city
We know we knooow
What about them?
If you're feeling froggy then leapIf you're feeling froggy then leeeaaaap
They never expected this what the bossman is back
I was chilling for a bit now i've got to react
I got fans telling me they was locked with my dad
It's time to go in now, not to relax
I think breaktime's over
Damm right I felt froggy so I got on the track
It's time to throw down couple crops in the flats
Smoking weed in the back of the whip with the windows down so
i'm covered in ash
Thanking god i'm not one of those kids who was held back in life
just because of his past
Can you imagine that? I must be going mad in fact
The grime scene's over here right now and don't let them know
when they can have it back
I got, 300, 000 views in a month
Can't tell me shit man i do what i want
Miss passing my nigga twos on a blunt
When Depzman died i realised who was a cunt
2Real, do you wanna leave do you want a job?
Right now i'm with music man but i still show man what to do with the pump
Trust me don't say a word
Jaykae's smoking a whole day of herb
Don't lie about things if you know they occurred
Cah we don't respect that shit
Just know that I can't be stopped
Them man are praying for fame and fortune while i'm just praying i don't get locked
You know like that
Who's running our city?
Who's got the ting pulled out right now in our city
We know we know
And who's repping our city?
Who talks the talk and who walks the walk in our city
We know we knooow
What about them? Yeah what about them?
They know like that, you know like that
.(??)
If you're feeling froggy then leap
If you're feeling froggy then leeeaaaap
Murder
They never expected this like a black man driving a black cab

I've got my city on my back fam
It planned out never planned it
Man stand out by being outstanding
Woah, I'm living the brum life i'm on grime from sundown to sunrise
So don't say a word
I had my old girl stressing my new girl I had to have a word
The word's getting round that man are getting round so i get what i want out of a word
Put Dapz on the Map on a verse since I rap like I slowed down the track when I spat
Man run the road
About being 'road'
The only thing you're running is laps
Me and my niggas be the public figures that win
Run the town without having to sprint
I treat every day like the 29th of Feb
Brum town celeb

I dream big while others just sleep
.(??) feel froggy when i leap like kermit the frog, ribbit
Still got some of that '09 spirit
Just more calm and calculated with it
I'll spin an MC, then have the DJ spin it
Then spin it back
If i ain't with my brothers then i'm with my brothers
Everyone's got everyone's back
Them man are dying to know how we're living
Hating how everyone's loving off man
