Similar to his song “Mum I’m Stronger”, this song pays a homage to his grandmother.
If you read Wiley’s Godfather book you’ll know how much of an impact his nan had on his life. When he was very young his mum’s brother Junior was murdered not far from where he lived. After this event, his nan moved...
[Intro]
What's gwaning, Nan? Y'alright?
Yeah, it's Kylea, what's gwaning, what's gwaning?
Yeah I know, Nan, I know you always tell me come out of London
But I can't
I am London
[Verse 1]
Ask London, I'm the grime kid
Nineteen of the first seventy-nine, I'm still alive with
More in store for the music stores
And I'm hyping, on a mic ting all day
We can spit all day, to the end I'm riding
The next ten years like a baider smiling
After them ten, give me a black card
I've fly 'round the world buy two black cars
Too swift, too quick, can't see me, I rass
I'm powerful, and I got a powerful past
I'm London - I get praise in abundance
Have you ever wondered why I've never blundered?
A few slip-ups, otherwise I'm underground
I'm so London, everyting London
Ask anybody, any place, anywhere if Eskiboy represents London
I am London
[Bridge]
You get what I'm saying, Nan? I'm out here
I'm doing this ting
Hold tight my uncles
Hold tight my grandad
You know what else, Nan? Listen
[Verse 2]
Yo, I'm the best in Bow and the rest should know
I'm the best thing since sliced bread
They can't test me, Nan, I'm the champion
So I suggest they run before they're dead
In this game, there's no time for mishaps
No time for Kit Kats, copper and lead
I don't see why everybody thinks it's a joke that I nearly ended up dead
Nan, see the bars I write, they got meaning
Can't test Boy Better Know, they're dreaming
Man might bust his head off the ceiling
When I'm in a rave spraying bars I don't cheat, I deserve the wheelin'
When you hear the name grime, Nan, I am the meaning
I brought the whole team in
And now it's a reality, there ain't no more dreaming
[Outro]
You get me, Nan?
They're saying my name, like
Thousands and millions of people are saying my name around the world, Nan
That must be a good thing
I know you're proud
Eskiboy
