Cadell - L.O.N.D.O.N lyrics
[Cadell - L.O.N.D.O.N lyrics]
Dawn in the east end of London
And three miles east of St Paul's
The start of another busy day
For one of the last
Real street markets left in this
Part of the capital roman Road, Bow
They call it capital of the globe
That's their way of having something to probe
Plus the government cat for tax
They don't wanna see the youth in control
So they throw 'em in flats for cash
And police always love to start shit
But they say the mandem are heartless
Like we didn't go school, play a part
Until we departed
And the kids are poor, and want to war
Cause they watch too much telly
The control is widespread, not remote
We've seen it already
You just gotta make that big bang
Before you end up chasing pennies
And I know I love my city
But, I know niggas are out to get me
In London, London london
And I know I love my city
But, I know niggas are out to get me
In London, London london
And I know I love my city
Local authority hate on us
Put us in estates and label us gangs
An easy way of finding us
On TV, they pretend to be so kind with us
But that ain't fine with us
Anytime we think we can change it
They're back in our ends reminding us
They'd rather see us picking sides
Than be onside with us
Link my Gs by the cafe
Cause that's where the egg and bacon is
Anytime there's crime
We get the blame for it
And they get paid for it
So many people falling off
I guess they wasn't made for it
I know it ain't dangerous
But, I make sure that my life ain't taken
In London, London, London
I know it ain't dangerous
But, I make sure that my life ain't taken
In London, London, London
I know it ain't dangerous
Congestion charge is a bitch
Everyone says they're loyal
But for the right price, they switch
It must be a London thing (fuck it)
I don't know what it is
Might see us post on the strip
Smoking spliffs, plus we're equipped
(got that) some man do this image ting
But others try to get rich
They'd rather see who's popular
Who's fucked whose girl, who's knocked her up
Youngers get worse every year
And that's cause no one hots them up
Truthfully, I love the ends
I try tell this to my country friends
But anytime I bring them to ends
They tell me "London's not for us"
London, London and I know I love my city
But, I know niggas are out to get me
In London, London london
I know it ain't dangerous
But, I make sure that my life ain't taken
London's not for us
Truthfully, I love the ends
I try tell this to my country friends
But anytime I bring them to ends
They tell me "London's not for us"
(In the east end of London)
