President T, Bossman Birdie - Dem Dere Roads lyrics
[President T, Bossman Birdie - Dem Dere Roads lyrics]
"Born and raised, Prez
Where was you born and raised?"
When I gave out my address, they was amazed
90% of wicked man talk is over the phone
That's why I've never been fazed
Then I got wheeled by feds
They looked into my eyes, never been glazed
(wow) just close your eyes and pretend
This bar never got built
I know skengman so far up north
Don't be surprised if you see
Them wearing a kilt
I was the sentence without the guilt
I was the sentence without
The pre-sentence report
My whole career in grime? Never been sure
I grew up in dem dere zones
Dem dere avenues, dem dere roads
Won't hear the Boss with dem dere flows
Why's that? Me, I carry dem dere Os
Wanna make history, not dem dere clothes
Dem dere jacket, nah
I ain't inna dem dere modes
Real black man so you dun know
I ain't carryin' dem dere pose
I grew up in dem dere zones
Dem dere avenues, dem dere roads
Won't hear the Boss with dem dere flows
Why's that? Me, I carry dem dere Os
Wanna make history, not dem dere clothes
Dem dere jacket, nah
I ain't inna dem dere modes
Real black man so you dun know
I ain't carryin' dem dere pose
If you ever thought life was bad
Look on the bright side
Where I'm from, not the same place as Ian
But it's the right side
I was a younger, they were like
"Your whole career will glide"
Call me the Golden Eye of grime
But I never spied
Ever since Back Inna My Face, I multiplied
Give you a tour of where I'm from
But it won't come with a guide
It's not that, this MC just lied
Now it's all intensified, word on the street
He testified
Where I'm from is known world and nationwide
I play Stranger Returns each and
Every day in my ride
I grew up in dem dere zones
Dem dere avenues, dem dere roads
Won't hear the Boss with dem dere flows
Why's that? Me, I carry dem dere Os
Wanna make history, not dem dere clothes
Dem dere jacket, nah
I ain't inna dem dere modes
Real black man so you dun know
I ain't carryin' dem dere pose
I grew up in dem dere zones
Dem dere avenues, dem dere roads
Won't hear the Boss with dem dere flows
Why's that? Me, I carry dem dere Os
Wanna make history, not dem dere clothes
Dem dere jacket, nah
I ain't inna dem dere modes
Real black man so you dun know
I ain't carryin' dem dere pose
Where was you born and raised?"
