[Ghetts - Troubled Man lyrics]
Council housing, foul surroundings
Its a blood bath and my town is drowning
Some young dargs on the balcony shouting
Where i used to come past with
A ounce in my calvins (kleins)
Drugs in my boxers
Hiding from the FEDs in the bush
Can't see the dogs but i
Hear the sound of growling
And now it in, when he found me crouching
Unlucky, story of my life
Every other night me and
The authorities collide
And if it wasn't for the warrior inside
I would of lost my bottle
When the courier arrived
I don't mind putting shots in my mouth
The hardest thing i've had to
Swallow is my pride
And I'm a man who wants nothing from no-one
The only thing ill never win is time
I do wrongs and im sorry every time
But where i come from and
The minority is deprived
The economy turn and swing to
Cunts am i right?
All the government ever did is take from us
An obviously we went and respond with crime
And if you know where im coming from
Show me a sign to acknowledge the grind
I come up hard baby, and that ain't cool
I didn't make it sugar, playin' by the rules
I come up hard baby, but now I'm fine
I'm shakin' trouble sugar
Movin' down the line
I come up hard but that's okay
Cause trouble man, don't get in my way
I come up hard, baby
Well paid, self made
And it's hard out here for a negro
You don't know a thing if
You think the worlds changed
It ain't, it's just kept on the D-Low
No-one ever wanted to help slaves and my
Ancestors blood swells in my veins
Different century, same shit
Chains, whips and slave ships
Get money my brudda
Then make sure the aim is to remain rich
So you ain't got to pay shit to the bailiffs
I used to waste money, but now i be saving
For days when rain hit's and my roof caves in
It ain't easy to get, but it's harder to keep
Thats why you ain't shit without maintaining
And i ain't saying mans made it
But soon my bank statements
Will need translating
I came up hard man never had nating
And i ain't got a made up past
I ain't one of these artists
That gotta make up bars
My story's inspirational
Its like knowing 50 used to
Live in his gran's basement
I come up hard baby, and that ain't cool
I didn't make it sugar, playin' by the rules
I come up hard baby, but now I'm fine
I'm shakin' trouble sugar
Movin' down the line
I come up hard but that's okay
Cause trouble man, don't get in my way
I come up hard, baby
Its a blood bath and my town is drowning
Some young dargs on the balcony shouting
Where i used to come past with
A ounce in my calvins (kleins)
Drugs in my boxers
Hiding from the FEDs in the bush
Can't see the dogs but i

And now it in, when he found me crouching
