With Krept growing up in Gipsy Hill and Konan growing up in Thornton Heath, they started in their neighbourhoods from an early age. As time went on krept and konan became friends outside of music and in due time realised we both had a musical talent in mc/rapping. It was then only a matter of time when they both came together to make a few songs for the fun of it. The songs had the streets going crazy, everybody had them on their phones, it is then when they realised their music potential. Unfortunately later down the line in 2007 konan went into incarceration for a whole year which had a major effect on their music path. Krept did not concentrate on music during konan’s incarceration, and at this point music was not in the picture for either of them. However in 2008 Konan was then released from jail and music was still not in the picture for either krept or konan.
A few weeks after konan’s release a friend of both krept and konan had a studio who occasionally invited them round to make tracks here and there. As these tracks were released their fanbase began to grow again it was then when they both decided to put more effort into the music. The two then started doing music videos, freestyle videos and releasing more tracks as time went on and the fanbase continued to grow. Both krept and konan then released a mixtape together called “Redrum” which was made due to high demand. At this point it was clear to everyone that krept and konan became a duo in the music scene, and at this moment all they were missing was a name. This is where Krept and konan both came to the decision of the name “Play Dirty”. They are now an official group which will be expanding in the future to more artists producers etc..
Lord Forgive Me
Krept & Konan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eyes low blowing trees, I hope The Lord forgives me
White girl from overseas, I hope The Lord forgive me
She wants that Mike GLC, I hope The Lord forgives me
Hope the lord forgives me (Oh Lord)
I'm fucked completely
When I see them line up to see me
Think that I've come a long way from a queue
Make man bleed if act like a wrong'un
I can have a African yout' blood clotting
Stuck up in the ghetto when them robbers are plotting
It's popping, I love 'em, drop em if there honestly shotting
Them nerds try'na act goonie
Tell him come here, he be like, who me?
Got a hot ting, but she coolie
I can buy Lauryn Hills for a few G
Cos I've made a lot of pounds since Tuesday
Man on a milli try'na lose weight
Have your whole family laying flowers
If a nigga wanna move bouquet
You little fuck boys, please behave
Think my niggas weak, yeah?
Till they leave you dazed
Don't seem amazed when they do stamp you out
Man will pass on the kicks like hand-me-downs
All these hoes wanna call the bosses
Got these hoes in a line like naughts and crosses
I run shit so niggas got a problem
I run shit and get blows, Boston!
Got hoes on my D you know how I do
Get sex by the minute who know how I move
Don't think man are nerds
I ain't no fucking chicken, but I got my dick in your bird
Hotties on deck, obvious!
Had one or two, threesomes with foreigners
Talking like your money's up there
But your an asshole in the rear
I hope The Lord forgives me
Eyes low blowing trees, I hope The Lord forgives me
White girl from overseas, I hope The Lord forgive me
She wants that Mike GLC, I hope The Lord forgives me
Hope the lord forgives me (Oh Lord)
If she got style, I give her that one D
Red bottoms cost her a monkey
Neck on the line if I'm hungry
Might get two in your onesie
When you see my clique in masks
I bet you put that 106 in park
Jump out before it gets fatal
Then I take them bricks and go AWOL
Money over everything
Girls getting powder
Drinking from the bottle
Woke up in my Calvins
Looking at me pouting
What you wanna do?
Ice cream cone, I know you wanna scoop
You know the deal, hotties wanna chill, I said
You know the deal, hotties wanna chill
First I go give Holly some wood
Then I get Beverly out them heels
When I woke up can't remember the rave
Lightie she's fucked off of MDMA
Come a long way, I remember the days
Getting queen heads off of Henrys and Eigths
Plenty of brain with these grands on my mind
Before Insta, we had the grams that they like
You can get 8 about hands on your 9
Watch your doughnuts get jammed with a knife
Tell the little sideman stand to the side
Talking bare till I panda your eye
(Wait)
About 'they bang all the time'
Had to sit down, can't stand all the lies (Behave!)
So fuck them in a mixtape
I don't know paper, pad
I hope The Lord forgives me
Eyes low blowing trees, I hope The Lord forgives me
White girl from overseas, I hope The Lord forgive me
She wants that Mike GLC, I hope The Lord forgives me
Hope the lord forgives me (Oh Lord)
My niggas started driving and I failed theory
Got shift, come out of jail early
When I picked my Dad up in a SLS he said an 'Our Father' and a 'Hail Mary' (Amen)
Think I give a fuck what a hater said?
Certified up in the A-Z
She made me cum and then she made my bed
And made me Kobe beef her in a Laker's
Just another job for the Wonderman
[?] with no underpants
My parents call me Patrick, what they gonna do know that their son's a Dan?
Singing 'Started from the Bottom' with a bunch of man
But us man started on a hundred grand
A few just to move to in
Show you how much I really love my fam
Man are try'na kick it on Soccer AM
Me, I'm on another programme
Send my Grandma back to Nigeria cause I didn't wanna have a Konan (Kaboom)
Take my wifey to another part of Italy cause I didn't want another romance (fuck!)
Stick out my middle finger taking matters into my own hands
It's Krept & Konan still along
Rambo times Django
I'm in the South of France with a Essex girl
In a Lambo that's been tangoed
I go in to the outro
I know Martin, I know
And I know a nigga never used to rate me then
But I bet they love me now though, I'm gone
I hope The Lord forgives me
Eyes low blowing trees, I hope The Lord forgives me
White girl from overseas, I hope The Lord forgive me
She wants that Mike GLC, I hope The Lord forgives me
Hope the lord forgives me (Oh Lord)
In Krept and Konan’s song “Lord Forgive Me,” the lyrics touch on themes of hedonism and a fear of divine judgement. The opening line “I hope The Lord forgives me” sets the tone for the rest of the song, as the duo confesses to a range of immoral actions: “Eyes low blowing trees” suggests drug use, “White girl from overseas” alludes to casual sex, and the reference to Mike GLC, who was involved in a drug scandal with Tulisa Contostavlos, implies criminal activity.
The lyrics also emphasize Krept and Konan’s rising success: “Made a lot of pounds since Tuesday,” “Come a long way from a queue,” and “Started on a hundred grand” suggest that the duo has made great strides in their careers. However, they remain aware of the dangers that come with money and power, as expressed in lines such as “Have your whole family laying flowers if a nigga wanna move bouquet” and “Girls getting powder drinking from the bottle.” Ultimately, Krept and Konan express a sense of both pride (“I run shit”) and insecurity (“Think I give a fuck what a hater said?”).
Overall, “Lord Forgive Me” is a confession of the excesses and moral dilemmas that come with fame and fortune.
