Skepta feat. JME Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh shit is it Ghosty's riddim
Yeah fam, Jme's so sick with it
Yo hold this listen
You know this isn't patterned
Don't let this flow go missing to the vultures sniffing
Talk bout culture, pay attention to who the cultures killing
Man will pimp the ride, yet no exhibit
Which strap? Pick it
Click-clack, click it
Don't care fam, you won't slap with it
You're shook fam, brick it
This ain't a freestyle
This a 8 style, you'll think DigDat did it
Take man out, under arm lift it
Rip that ticket, hit that wicket
Have a drink, kick back sipping
Not scared of the bogeyman, pick that, flick it
You wanna listen to someone rough to make you feel rough
Cause' you're not rough
Need to get drapes up by the scruff of your neck
And start learning how to scuff
Think you're all tough
Shit hits the fan, man reach
I'm cold and hot like chilli, come fuck with me
Cats trolls offline, it's tump up city
Baby mum pretty so I dont care bout no bum-bum titty
Not a dumb-dumb, silly
I wake up giddy, smile on my face like I won one milly
D-I-Y, yeah man will get busy
Plaster the dents in my ceiling, you know about Chunkz & Filly
BBK shirt, shorts, durag
Fam my drips not drippy
I'm bait in the ends like Lickshot Lippy
Flow fire ahlie but it's not Chippy
Offline fam it got sticky
Half my supporters are pissed off with me
Fuck the chart rude boy
Tryna make man move like some TikTok nitty
You wanna listen to someone rough to make you feel rough
Cause' you're not rough
(This is the one that Jme made)
Mana' grown up like David Spade
But me and my daughter make daisy chains
Buy Sarah some ladies frames
She knows I'm a catch like David James
I'm a keeper like David James
Ask for the best and I'll say these names
Jemet, Dushane and James
Aaron, Joseph and Jamie's bait
We don't play these games
Get dashed on the floor like Macy Gray
In training day man will chief man up, then name and shame
Drown a man like David Blaine
Poke hole in your skin like David Blaine
There's a frog in your throat like David Blaine
That's shit on your pants, not gravy stains
Porsche cause' the Range is bait
True say man ain't got basic taste
Online, haters hate
But you can't tell if the hate is fake
Catch man in the strangest place
Spinning back fist, break his face
They say no pain, no gain
So use this moment to make a change
I played it safe cause' I forgot the bar, then I sprayed it late
You don't wanna feel Jme's rage
Grime MC, FM's your favourite rain
Street Fighter arcade on stage
Neon logo made it great
Man just says it straight
Everybody eats, take a plate
It's a grave mistake if you sleep on my name like Wakey Wake
My durag ain't making wage
Got the fresh canerow like David Haye
Get a one-two like David Haye
I'm on the ones and twos like Jason K
Indirect, no blatant straight
On a direct ting like David Yates
Don't care if you make it rain
You're still an eediat with Satan traits
And pagan mates, your bars are dead like Lazy says
I don't take a break
Clocked over your head like Flavour Flav
At the top of the stairs like Flavour Flav
I'm at the top of the stairs like baby gates

[Verse 1: Skepta]
I'm calm
I've got the devil in my palm
Know I said that I wear sunglasses at night
But tonight I need to see wagwan
Wanna see somebody drop to the ground
No civilians, no doctors around
Who said life is priceless? So far your life cost me a pound
One phone call and a 10p text
All of my mandem, link up quick
We don't care what ends he reps
When I said he shoulda known, it weren't any old rhyme
Got a couple killers that are never online
Might see the shadow in a video of mine
Standing behind the camera with the director
Ready to shoot an MC one time
[Verse 2: Jme]
Where has everybody gone?
I'm not on that vibe that everybody's on
Some old lame old plain old blatant shame
Till you find out it ain't working (Nah)
One for the Basebox Crew
Krispy…Mc…drive…aye
This ain't a private shubs
Man can wear hats or hoods
No Uggs
It's not a lean up ting (It's not lean up ting)
I don't have a boss
Nobody can tell me there's a clean-up in aisle 5
'Cause I'll drive straight to your door
Then I'll spin and piledrive your face to the floor
[Verse 3: Skepta]
Yeah
Somebody's gotta get murked
Spoke to my mum but that didn't work
Counted to 10 but that didn't work
Blud, man ah putting in work
Switch them plates, man ah going on a ride
Black bally on and I look like a fly
Give mumsie a kiss, tell her "You'll be home soon
Come to the gate when I pull up on the drive"
I don't care if it's raining or not
If we get chased by feds, everybody in the car better know that I'm failing to stop
'Cause like Luis Suárez, these police love taking a shot
But [?] violated the squad
Forget the albums, forget the mixtapes in the shop
Real G's don't procrastinate on the job
Yeah!
[Verse 4: Jme]
I got a black ski mask, but I don’t ski
But I snowboard, dash an MC off-piste
If one of you try and violate me
Get a box in the face with a front door key
Box in the mouth with a back door key
Box in the face with a X6 key
Box in the eye with the fob I use to log into my HSBC
Talk about banks, kill 'em with Ps
Run up in your girl's house, two of my Gs
Get the money out, put the money in his mouth
Suffocate man with about two Gs
Suffocate man with about four Gs
Suffocate man then I might just breeze
I’ll bury man two foot shallow
Ain’t got time to dig six feet deep
@matthewdenneny6742
