Kano - Grime MC lyrics

Intrigued by the beat touched by the words
Homework studied every noun every verb
Nerd way before you heard these verses
Used to be so good, so perfect
Intelligent, straight A student
Move in the blazer on through the corridor
Shine every rave and play commodore 64 still
From 4 til 6 on the weekend radios on
Video killed that radio star
Channel U heavy rotation
Sky remote control set as the favourite
Start wearing hoodies, in with the bullies
Like fuck the education face it
I ain’t ever gunna get to drive
A Bentley from a degree so I got to be an MC

Hi I’m the grime MC i got my jeans down low
Hat over the hood like Tinchy
Hi I’m the grime MC
I got my tag in my hat like GH and
I got a mixtape it’s called the gime MC
‘Cos that’s what I am, I’m a cliché
Ain’t you seen Base these days
I copy everything I see on TV
It’s easy, I can be a grime MC
Hi I’m the grime MC i got my jeans down low
Hat over the hood like Tinchy
Hi I’m the grime MC
I got my tag in my hat like GH and
I got a mixtape it’s called the gime MC
‘Cos that’s what I am, I’m a cliché
Ain’t you seen Base these days
I copy everything I see on TV
It’s easy, I can be a grime MC

Hi I’m the grime MC, I don’t give a fuck
Ignorant but still I don’t give a fuck
Boast about shit that ain’t even cool
When kids close their eyes MC’s pull the wool
But please, don’t take me for simple
I ain’t one of these MC’s
Indeed, I shout when I’m angry
Swear when I’m rowdy
I’m top that nigga can’t fuck with my family
2 shots make a nigga drop like Bambi
But, I ain’t no fool been
Schooled by the elders full of no rules
And yeah I go school but I don’t wear shoes
16 and I’m a known yute
And all the chicks love me for my vocals
And I’m living a life already just wait
Till I get my time on tele

Hi I’m the grime MC i got my jeans down low
Hat over the hood like Tinchy
Hi I’m the grime MC
I got my tag in my hat like GH and
I got a mixtape it’s called the gime MC
‘Cos that’s what I am, I’m a cliché
Ain’t you seen Base these days
I copy everything I see on TV
It’s easy, I can be a grime MC
Hi I’m the grime MC i got my jeans down low
Hat over the hood like Tinchy
Hi I’m the grime MC
I got my tag in my hat like GH and
I got a mixtape it’s called the gime MC
‘Cos that’s what I am, I’m a cliché
Ain’t you seen Base these days
I copy everything I see on TV
It’s easy, I can be a grime MC

Hi I’m the grime MC give me a deal
I know there’s a way so give me a will
And I can make you rich so give me a mill
‘Cos my mixtape’s selling like hotcakes still
I hope I don’t come across arrogant
But the whole of your roster I'm badder than
I'm a hustler I don't need management
And I negotiate quite old fashioned
Does my gun on the table bother you?
Is she coming with my glass of orange juice?
Long story short I ain't Kano or Dizzee
And I can win a MOBO with? it's easy
Make niggas go wild when the riddim low
All I need is Crystal in the video
Merc for Dad and 4 for mummy
And we can make loads of money
We can take over the chart with
My bars in one week
I just need you to fund me
Man fuck a business card for a trip this far
You'll never hear another nigga
Spit this hard

Grime till I die rhyming I'm fine
But, I don't get bookings
No more nobody hires write till I'm rich
Fight till I'm tired
I don't need no backup plan I'm a survivor
Fuck a record deal dem man
Are getting ripped off
I'd rather stay underground majors
Can get lost
I'm keeping it real my pockets empty
But fuck you niggas I'm a Grime MC
