Stormzy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

OK, how can I describe this? Beauty at its finest
You say you've been waiting for me to be your highness
Now I'm yours for the taking, so let's make this timeless
Forget those that are hating, you know they admired us, yeah
Girl, you the baddest
That's why I'll give you it the way you never had it
You keep it real, hold it down, let me see you turn around
Yeah, you got me in the zone right now

You've been on my mind
Let's do this right
Girl, take your time
You're finally mine

Oh, let's make this last forever
Forever, yeah
Forever
Forever
Oh, let's make this last forever
Yeah, forever, oh
Forever
Forever

Look, can we make this last forever, please?
Your slim waist in those denim jeans will take care of my enemies
So I pray, my aura and my energy
Gets outshined by that Hennessy, still get it done, yeah, that's any means
And that's faith, we had love, I turned cold and left you broken
But you came back 'cuh the love cuts deep and I let you breathe but you left me choking
And we all know that you had my soul when I had yours too but I still weren't coping
Feel like Frank would, fuel in my tank, got one more mile to the ocean
Then you come along but the summer's gone and this thing might take some time
All those summer songs and those JΓ€gerbombs and that day when I made you mine
You're not blessed but you say you're fine, I could swear that's your favourite line
All that I need and you're all that I see, let me help you breathe, let me save your life
You get caught in a whirl when you talk to your girls and they say that I'm bad news
You get wrapped in their words and it actually hurts cause we both know that's not true
Girl, this love is ours and it's no one else's, it's time that we both take charge
If we get it right then we'll never die, I just hope we can make it last, yo

Oh, let's make this last forever
Forever, yeah
Forever
Forever
Oh, let's make this last forever
Yeah, forever, oh
Forever
Forever

Yo, can we make this last forever?
Can we make the world spin slow? Let's work it out till it's better
I would never let this love grow, then you say never say never
And you kept me warm in the snow, with your tush as light as a feather
You said I was close to killing us both, we both know love's so painful
You came in my life and you made it alright and for that, man, I'm so grateful
Girl, this love is ours and it's no one else's and you need me to survive
You can light the way or return the flame, I just hope we can keep it alight, yo

Forever
Forever
Oh, let's make this last forever
Forever, yeah
Forever




Forever
Oh, let's make this last forever

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!!
