Hangman Lyrics

[Intro]
It's
Santan
ST, look

[Verse]
I see a lot of man let their jealousy creep in
Watch who you eat with, the girls that you sleep with
Watch who you talk with, walk with, speak with
The first to the motives, and last to the meetings
Ha, all I know is how to work, bruv
Start off as a worker, and that's just how it works, bruv
When I was tryna work, niggas never tried to turn up
But, when it's time to turn up, everybody turns up
And I don't know what I was thinking with the tweets about
The searches, but when Harry got murdered
Man was so emotional, tryna find solutions
I had some good intentions, but I guess I couldn't word them
Man, life's so funny
I got a message saying that the streets don't love me
The streets don't love you, if you died today
They wouldn't donate to your fuckin' GoFundMe
A lot of man hate me, but man can't touch me
That's why I gotta chuckle, I'm a Poet, no Chuckie
My mummy tryna wake me up for college in the morning
Is the only time a human on this earth has ever rushed me
Pshh, boy, it's true
I tell them yutes that skunk weed is gonna poison you
All you wanna do is go and score a point or two
It's ironic everybody's got a point to prove
When we were young, we never listened to them older man
How you beefing man if you don't even know the man?
Before you poke a man, you man wanna expose a man
All for some Instagram clout on Exposing Gangs
Pshh, so what's gangster then?
'Cause I don't really know if I'm honest
When we were young, we had dreams of being bosses
Ballers, doctors, lawyers in an office
So how did that turn into dropping out of college
Snaps in a prison cell, bodies in a coffin
London is cursed, this city's got a problem
My bro ain't got a bird he got an ostrich, a fucking life sentence
So don't talk about experience
I say what I want and that's period, my team serious
I still got a squad full of lifers
From Dovegate to Isis, freedom is priceless
And I see a lot of man tryna draw me out
I feel the tension in the air when I walk around
But would you rather be the person talking
Or the person doing all the things that people talk about?
Scratch that, I ain't with the backchat
My mum calls me David, girls call me Santan
And fam, I don't give a fuck if you're a badman
You madman, the only guy I'm dodging is the tax man
They say that fame is a game and it's true
'Cause if you say the wrong word, then everybody wants to hang man
Ask Serge about the times that I had, man
I brought the fam together like when Tommy got the black hand
And if you got a good girl, you need to keep her close
And let her in, because the difference is
When things hit the fan, they're gonna disappear
All them side chicks, and all them mistresses
All your broskis and your affiliates
And all the man that you were standing in the pictures with
They ain't visiting 'cause they ain't got a thing to give
I'm a hypocrite, but that line between
Stopping it and living it, I'm sitting in the thick of it
You would think I told my boys to come party in South
'Cause this year I said we need to touch Bigga Fish
Too many yutes are dying and I'm sick of it

How did the song come together?

When I came and wrote it, I wrote it over parts. I think that I had linked Nana Rogues at studio, and I was just freestyling. I was just trying to be in a studio and say something.

How did Dave link up with Nana Rogues?

I had worked with Nana Rogues on a beat before this one. So we had done a track. It’s actually a pretty small world. I saw him out in LA. I know him through a friend. And then we ended up coming back together and making music.

He was cycling through a lot of beats, and this had a completely differe...
