Stormzy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"Yo"

"Yo, gang"

"Yes, my brother"

"You still don't sound sure"
"Nah, nah, I'm in the booth right now, right now
I'm in here right now"

"Alright, let's start then
Alright look, let's just get one thing clear, I don't fuck about
I am the certi' one
I am the one that they call 'Gangster of Grime'
I don't like it but I don't mind it
But I need everyone to know, and I'm not just talking about the hood,
I ain't just talking about the basics
I'm talking about the whole island of this country
Needs to understand what is about to happen
If you put all bias aside, Stormzy has to be Neo, he has to be
So therefore that makes me Morpheus so I'm telling the council right now
This kid, no joke, you can hate him all you want
This kid has to be seeing the game in zeros and ones
Like, it's not normal, it's not normal
So hashtag 'merky', hashtag 'problem', (mad bro) hashtag 'wickedskengman'
Na, I like that one, no I like that one
And I don't even know what a hashtag is
I just know it's proper merky
You know, you know a hashtag's a bit more advanced than me
But what people do need to understand is
You see anyone from my era of Grime, need to recognise
That if you cannot fathom that this guy's about to take it
From a second rate genre to a first rate genre
Then you need to look at yourself and be ashamed
Seriously, you have to be ashamed
Because we started from the roots of this ting (Word)
Now we've gone past the roots, it's a whole digital age
We don't need the middle man
Mr. Smith is nearly obsolete
We don't need those label ones again (word, word)
We can actually just shot it ourselves and cut through
So everyone needs to understand that when I'm telling you, and I'm certi'
My name's Crazy Titch, I'm definitely one million percent certified
I know certi' guys from all over, Brum, Manchester, Notts, Sheffield, Leeds, Manny, Liverpool
These people all say the same thing
'We don't really even know what Grime is but we know who Stormzy is'
You know like, so, I don't wanna hear man say
'I'm too gangster listening to Stormzy'
Shut up, that's a lie, you ain't
You know them ones right there
It just means you're a hater
No real talk, it just means you're a hater
You know like, that's what it is, this is my opinion and it is my opinion
I don't care what no one says
Real talk, those old guys that don't wanna bring him in
Whatever man, fuck yourself man, you know like real talk"

"Mad brother"

"Get a Coke and a smile man, seriously
Don't play them man there no mind, brudda
All them other side crap guys better just shut their mouth
You know I'm trying to say
Yeah man, there you go"





"Fucking Crazy Titch, my brother
Oi listen, hahaha oi, what"

Crazy Titch makes it clear that he does not mess around, and his opinion is that Stormzy must be seen as the "Neo" of the grime genre, and that he himself is "Morpheus". He emphasizes how everyone in the country must understand that Stormzy's music is going to take the genre to a first-rate level, from a second-rate one, and that they don't need middlemen like record labels anymore. He says that people from all over the UK agree that they might not know what grime music is but they all know who Stormzy is. Crazy Titch pushes back against those who think that listening to Stormzy makes them "too gangster," saying that it just means they are haters.


The lyrics present a fascinating glimpse into the passion and energy of two people, Crazy Titch and an unknown person, who believe that Stormzy is on the cusp of something big in the grime music industry. The conversation highlights just how disruptive and game-changing Stormzy's music was when he burst onto the scene, especially in the early days of the genre. It also shows how the digital age has changed things for musicians, enabling them to create, promote and sell their music without the need for record labels or middlemen who might dilute their message or profit from their creative talent. More importantly, the exchange about Stormzy's influence on grime suggests the possibility of a new era of grime music where artists take ownership of their music, their message and their business, and where the old guard makes way for the new.

Stormzy - 0 to 100 (Lyrics)

I wasnt even gonna do one but...

Fuck your bandanas, we dnot see no colours
I want a holiday, I tell 'er pack your luggage
They're like Stormz, why you only doing covers
I'm sitting on some bangers you can go and such your mothers
But for now I might just take a little tune and then I kill it
We're just warming up a second in minute
Got the E.P coming sooner when we're finished
I just dash my boy a drawer 'nd tell him bin it, OH LORD!
I'm the one to get it popping
I just phone my brudda Flips, we'll go and shop it
Another nigga's talking shit, I need a coffin
And we don't care about your taper when its dropping, nigga oh shit
Promoters on the phone, he's got a booky
I got some pagans on the phone, they say they're looking for me
Got your girlfriend on my phone, she's got some pussy for me
I give my little brudda ?? and make him cook it for me
All this talking's gonna get a nigga into beef shit
I'm on my ????? shit
They're talking recky but them niggas haven't seen shit
I've seen them turn some gangstas into pussies, nigga real quick

Real quick, run Stormz, run Stormz
Please Stormz, that nigga's got a gun Stormz
They love Stormz, so if that nigga bun Stormz
They'll come for him, you can put that on my mum boy

Is this the karma
You're talking doe but you can't even bring your son up
They always miss but they just love the fancy run up
Selfies with my bitch, we're taking pictures looking tun up
And yeah, man I gotta put him on, my brudda's waiting for me
I just had a meeting with my man, he told me 'play it for me'
I aint even saying nothing, please just keep on praying for me
Still a couple niggas that still owe a couple favours for me
But we're gonna cash 'em all in when we need it
Heard your songs, they're kinda wack, yeah I don't feel it
They couldn't say it to my face they had to tweet it
Still thinking why they got me on the remix, that's some other shit
You wanted more, I dropped The Second Quarter through
If he needs it, then I've got a year, I'll sort it through
Yeah we're humble, you won't ever know we brought it through
That brudda's thirsty, can we please just get some water through
And 1 litre, 2 litre, 3 litres man he's thirsty
Couple man are old, they're in their thirties
My brudda stabbed me in my back, he done me dirty
And if I'm down my brudda ?? will reimburse me

Real nigga shit, real nigga shit, yeah
Real nigga shit, real nigga shit, yeah
Murky!!
