I Got My Head Screwed On

[Intro]
Head's too strong
In the hood for too long
It's time to move on
Never do wrong

[Chorus]
I got my head screwed on
You can't pursue my mentality because my head's too strong
Because I've been in the hood for too long
It's time to move on
My mum told me not to do wrong
So many street wars caused death
That's just another yout gone
I don't care what a next man's crew's on
I just wanna start a revolution
I got my head screwed on
You can't pursue my mentality because my head's too strong
Because I've been in the hood for too long
It's time to move on
My mum told me not to do wrong
So many street wars caused death
That's just another yout gone
I don't care what a next man's crew's on
I just wanna start a revolution

[Verse 1]
Just from the way that you look at me
I can see that me doing music's had a big impact
On your feelings when you're hated for no reason
And I been there, done there
Had to break the cycle
Write bars, go studio, jealousy, I had to say bun that
It's not good to hate on someone
Especially when the young only try to impress mum
Music's all I got
I ain't got qualifications or GCSEs
Without it, in hell I rot
Bruv, there's a lot of corruption in the block
A lot of guys hate on Dot
And wanna see me in the suit, fam around me
[?] looking in a box
But I ain't tryna get shot
Money and bags, I'm trying to make lots

[Chorus]
I got my head screwed on
You can't pursue my mentality because my head's too strong
Because I've been in the hood for too long
It's time to move on
My mum told me not to do wrong
So many street wars caused death
That's just another yout gone
I don't care what a next man's crew's on
I just wanna start a revolution

[Verse 2]
Police needs to understand why I rob
'Cause I'm young with no qualifications or job
No income
Black [?], I've been one
Unable to put food in my cupboard
It's not like I live in the country where crops grow
My fund's low
I can pick a corn on a cob
I live in the great streets
Where most youts either shot weed and make beats
Or go do [?]
I'm ungrateful
I got clothes, I copped enough to feed poor families till they're stable
It's kids that are dying and suffering
[?] gets me mad, I can't stay cool
There's a war going on religious and racial
For money, people will kill
Even run up in your yard and still wanna lie to your face too
To manipulate money is the great tool

[Chorus]
I got my head screwed on
You can't pursue my mentality because my head's too strong
Because I've been in the hood for too long
It's time to move on
My mum told me not to do wrong
So many street wars caused death
That's just another yout gone
I don't care what a next man's crew's on
I just wanna start a revolution

[Verse 3]
Everybody wants to be famous
Wants the new trainers
Make papers and start wearing the latest
You bang a one hit in studio
Then expect to get off a five figure jet from the majors
Do your video in a club in Las Vegas
You must be blind or out of your mind
If you didn't know money's known to attract haters
Furthermore, you must be trapped in the matrix
I do this because I love music
I love making beats and writing
You just love status
You don't worry about how your family are
You're more worried about where your next wage is
For funds, your best friend will set you up
And then say it's him, you say you've known him for ages
You need to understand everyone's broke
To get signed, all I can do is hope
But lost in the thing that means something to me
To the status shit, that means nothing to me
Respect for my friends and family
But if I talk to the woman that carry me
Feds want me behind bars and they're getting there gradually
I've got PCs behind, hearing that I had a casualty
Or that I caught a case because I shanked a yout that tried clashing from Battersea
I got beef
My boy got shanked five times, got nicked
Feds said that I snitched, I don't talk to police
I say no comment, I wait for the release
Fuck the police
It's youts that wants to see me underneath
But suck yourself
My shows will leave you believe
There's no question of turning over leaves
And if it's on, have you burn in a beef

[Chorus]
I got my head screwed on
You can't pursue my mentality because my head's too strong
Because I've been in the hood for too long
It's time to move on
My mum told me not to do wrong
So many street wars caused death
That's just another yout gone
I don't care what a next man's crew's on
I just wanna start a revolution
I got my head screwed on
You can't pursue my mentality because my head's too strong
Because I've been in the hood for too long
It's time to move on
My mum told me not to do wrong
So many street wars caused death
That's just another yout gone
I don't care what a next man's crew's on
I just wanna start a revolution
I got my head screwed on
You can't pursue my mentality because my head's too strong
Because I've been in the hood for too long
It's time to move on
My mum told me not to do wrong
So many street wars caused death
That's just another yout gone
I don't care what a next man's crew's on
I just wanna start a revolution
