[Verse 1: Wretch 32]
Yeah, I'm in the city tryna spend
Revolt with some bad boys, Diddys in my ends
Tell the valet it's a convoy, I'm with my friends
Gyal are tryna pull me up, but shit, I'm pullin' up again
Yeah, they know my set, set trends
Northside baby, catch me in the west end
It was Tottenham high road and now it's high street ken
Man was gettin' curved till they saw me in a Benz
Now when I swerve on 'em, I'm callin' it revenge
No hate in my heart, Chrome Hearts on my chest
Still a dog eat dog world, told my dawg to invest
Now my G cuttin' checks, he ain't gettin' G checked
De-stress at the Shard, we shut it down
They show us love at the Shangri-la
Fuck around and get smoked, I'll have a cigar
Man, I need them new Chanel's
Might just take a trip to France
[Chorus: Avelino]
God save the streets
We pray
Money, power, and love (We pray)
We just need some love
How 'bout you, me, on plane escape?
Money, power, and love
We just need some love
In Sin City
[Verse 2: Wretch 32, Wretch 32 & Avelino]
I'm at the London Eye
Sat here takin' in the views, I don't wanna drive
All we ever saw was red and now I'm colourblind
My brother from another mother from the other side
No, we're not saints, but I prefer the Saint Tropez
Dinner dates at nighttime with a Daydate
Twenty plates and up, I had so much on my plate
Had to serve food, now I tip the waitress an eight-ball
My guy grabbed grub from me, it was painful
Bite the hand that feeds you, don't you know that's disgraceful?
Made it out the manor where they'll make you or break you
Every man I brought brings somethin' to the table
Statue out in Libertine and in Tape too
'Cause any wrong move and they'll catch you out and tape you
Got them throwing shade in the borough and the Shaderoom
Drinking ensuite but the liquor distasteful
[Chorus: Avelino]
God save the streets
We pray
Money, power, and love (We pray)
We just need some love
How 'bout you, me, on plane escape?
Money, power, and love
We just need some love
In Sin City
[Verse 3: Wretch 32, Wretch 32 & Avelino]
Yeah, just left Hatton Gardens
Diamond in the rough, really hard it the hardest
Took her Piccadilly, she so picky, ah, shit
Either way I probably fuck, I just call it stardom
Respect the come up, I ain't one to complain
We was poverty stricken, now we pour champagne
God save the streets, man are preein' like I'm prey
We was really down bad, we just had to elevate
[Outro: Wretch 32]
Yeah, sensational
Yeah, sensational
Yeah, sensational
Yeah, Sin City sensational
Yeah, sensational
(Fresh to death, too blessed to ever stress)
(Death, fresh to death, to, to death)
Sensational
(Blessed, too blessed)
(Fresh to death, fr-)
(Fresh to death, too blessed to ever stress)

This is where I really needed to talk about the necessary evil of fun. I was in the studio with Raf, and he cut the lights and started playing his keyboard. All he had was a small blue light and he just started playing the chords you hear on the song. Then my guy Bams [DJ and producer] add...
