[Chorus]
Hey, hello
I been here since Ghetts was Ghetto
Yo, I know road not meadows
I don't score goals from penos
Screamers even when a girl look mellow
Hm, yeah, my life’s unsettled
Blackbox peds, now black Corvettes
And the facts all checked and the checks with zeros
Ooh, hello
Nah, I ain't ever won no medals
But I done Tour de London on pedals
When it was heat and tea from kettles
Now we get ice in kettles
Man, I just grind for the levels
Deal with devils, fuck your kennels
I might be dog, but I live like a rebel
[Verse 1]
Hey, hola
I do a lot for a dollar
Yeah, I do a lot for the gwolla
I know what is to be broke, my brother
Yeah, I want a house for my mother
Made my way, won't die in the gutter
Yo, it’s nice that you don't see colour
But I'm Black, that's me on the cover
Always other, mixed and cid
Still scoping the skin in that you place live
Forgot how to play, don't play with the kids
Get dipped and kwenged and bruck with the stick
Are you taking piss?
Don't you know you been making this?
Yo, like, tell me like how can I find peace
I don't even see what factual is
[Chorus]
Hm, hello
I been here since Ghetts was Ghetto
Yo, I know road not meadows
I don't score goals from penos
Screamers even when a girl look mellow
Hm, yeah, my life unsettled
Blackbox peds, now black Corvettes
And the facts all checked and the checks with zeros
Ooh, hello
Nah, I ain’t ever won no medals
But I done Tour de London on pedals
When it was heat and tea from kettles
Now we get ice in kettles
Man, I just grind for the levels
Deal with devils, fuck your kennels
I might be dog, but I live like a rebel
[Verse 2]
Huh, howdy
Never been fucked in the game ’cause I'm rowdy
Bad round me, nah, loudly
Tell you I’ll buy out your team like some breds from Saudi
Cowelley Simon, X factor
Man, it's all dead, see how I enter
Through the backdoor, sweat off your Max Factor
Limbs black and blue like you rep Inter
Yeah, right to the centre
Don't ask if you don't want a real answer
Don’t care what you're inta black Santa
Man, I come through in the red Phantom star
Yo, that's gift, stand up where you are
No fire in the booth or fire in the park
It's fire in the heart that's fire in the dark
That's fire from the start, ayo, run
[Chorus]
Hey, hello
I been here from Ghetts was Ghetto
Yo, I know road not meadows
I don't score goals from penos
Screamers even when a girl look mellow
I said my life's unsettled
Blackbox peds, now black Corvettes
And the facts all checked and the checks with zeros, ahh
Yo, hello
I ain't ever won no medals
But I done tour de London on pedals
When it was heat and tea from kettles
Now we get bare ice in kettles
Man, I just grind for the levels
Deal with devils, fuck your kennels
I might be dog, but I live like a rebel
[Outro]
Ah, I might be dog, but I live like a— ah
Ayy, c'mon
Might be dog, but I live like a—
