[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yo
Tyrone
On the motherfucking throne
You get me?
Yo
Check me, yo
[Chorus]
How can a very young man like me
From N-O-double-T
I-N-G-H-A-M
Be going on like a man who's got no friend?
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
[Verse 1]
How can a very young man like me be
Ready for war like UFC?
Get a punch in the face, punch in the boaty
You get a punch in the chest, punch in the goatee
Might go spa and get hot stones
Acupuncture's not for me
I said I might go spa, get hot stones
But acupuncture is not for me
I'm in the dancehall
I'm on the stage and I'm doing karate
I specialise inna kweffing man down like Slickman Party
I've got my normal shoes on
I ain't gotta wear no Huarache
I ain't gotta wear no Armani
Youts on the road wanna ask if I'm wearing Versace
You must have been smoking, dargy
I'm in the dancehall
I'm on the stage and my tracksuit's khaki
I specialise inna mashing up niggas
Like German army
I've got my durag on
'Cause I'm hiding a big tsunami
I had a lyrical war with a guy from
Northampton, Nottingham and a guy near Derby
Definitely sure nobody ever slewed me, sorry
I don't know why man are getting jolly
Man wanna push me
They wanna push a man in something like one pound inna trolley
Man wanna clone me, but
I'm not a sheep or dolly
Dem man are chatting 'bout guns and strap and
Dem man are chatting 'bout strap and shotty
But it's not my fault that you were getting bullied in College
[Chorus]
How can a very young man like me
From N-O-double-T
I-N-G-H-A-M
Be going on like a man who's got no friend?
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
[Chorus]
How can a very young man like me
From N-O-double-T
I-N-G-H-A-M
Be going on like a man who's got no friend?
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
[Verse 2]
Feeling young but I'm ready to
Draw my ting something like 2Pac inna battle
Tell man don't get yourself in a pickle
I specialise inna lyrical war
And sucking on nipple
I see very big youts on the roadside acting likkle
So I told that wasteman [?]
Cuh man are old school like picking a porn star
They wanna know where I'm staying but I'm staying in East
Uncle Mez, I've got the belly of the beast
Best hold onto the Jesus piece
Cuh when I jump on the mic and I release
I've got skills on the court just like Dave East
Lyrical bars might get repeat
I said my lyrical bars might get repeat
You don't wanna see man stick it on your toes on the street
And I don't mean FIFA Street, I do
Wing chun when I'm on the mic, got a great technique
When I jump on mic, it's too neat
Got my durag on, wanna copy my steeze
My durag's tied in a way they would say is on fleek
I specialise inna lyrical war
And mashing up beats
Over the beat and the ting skeet skeet
And I know a couple tings that will mash up your life
Like Nicki and Meek
Meeting a ting and I'm speaking Spanish, not Greek
Young black boy and I'm definitely known to cheat
And man have heard gyal chatting 'bout freak of the week, but
I specialise inna lyrical war
You specialise inna being a chief
[Chorus]
How can a very young man like me
From N-O-double-T
I-N-G-H-A-M
Be going on like a man who's got no friend?
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
[Chorus]
How can a very young man like me
From N-O-double-T
I-N-G-H-A-M
Be going on like a man who's got no friend?
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
Feeling young but I'm ready to, I'm
Feeling young but I'm ready to skeng
[Verse 3]
And me nuh deal with no funny man joker [?] man
I just bill my ting from left to right hand
Me have a whole heap of lyrical [?]
Good inna my right hand
See a whole heap of yout who ah shot dem batty for the rich man
Man say me dark like me have a sun tan from an island
A-but it ain't not no Dublin, Ireland
She wanna ask what me seh, what me seh?
Haffi do it like Simon
Inna my city, have yardie, gunman, all type of lengman
And know we're ready for war like say that we're Iron Man
Back inna the day, I was sitting in the church [?]
Boy shout loud like lion can
Put on the flame like fry up man
I'm on a skinny man ting, me nuh go to gym
Me said a skinny man ting, me nuh go to gym
And me nuh know how the phone dem ah ring when me have a new SIM
Me see di prettiest ting
From way down the road, ooh, she pretty and slim
Me nuh know about nyam poom poom and them type of ting
A brand new track from the dancehall king
Me nuh have [?] him
Me and my niggas get food from the West Indies
But I definitely don't mean Ashes
Move to the ting with the prettiest crouches
Wonder if she never did have eyelashes
Could ah never deal with any one of dem gyal
Cuh dem gyal dere move too crassis
Me could ah never deal with any one of dem gyal
Cuh dem gyal dere move too crassis
And nuh, me nuh answer to no bosses
And me nuh deal with no pig, bun fire pon fed and sausage
And me ah breast man and me love milk
Why you think seh the mandem call me porridge?
From a place where
My local team is the Nottingham Forest
Dem man are cartoon, coming just like they're

And me nuh answer to no bosses
And me nuh deal with no pig, bun fire pon fed and sausage
And me ah breast man and me love milk
Why you think seh the mandem call me porridge?
From a place where
My local team is the Nottingham Forest
Man are cartoon, coming just like they're
Wallace and Gromit, yeah
