That’s Not Me Lyrics

[Intro: Skepta]
What d'you mean, what d'you mean?
Yeah, Skepta
One line flows, yeah, I got some of those
You get me, Jme? Easy
Nah

[Chorus: Skepta]
Nah, that's not me
Act like a wasteman? That's not me
Sex any girl? Nah, that's not me
Lips any girl? Nah, that's not me
Yeah, I used to wear Gucci
I put it all in the bin 'cause that's not me
True, I used to look like you
But dressing like a mess? Nah, that's not me

[Verse 1: Skepta]
It's the return of the mack
I'm still alive just like 2Pac
Girls in the front row, girls in the back
Spit one lyric, everybody's like brap
Flashback to the cold nights in the trap
Now I'm in a new whip counting the big stack
Yellow-gold chain and the diamonds are black
Jack me? Nah, you don't wanna do that
Anytime you see me wearing a glove
Boy Better Know I ain't coming to fight like Jet Li
Spray this 'til the clip is empty
I know you get what I'm saying, you get me?
Love for the G's in the ends
But we don't love no girls in the ends
Last time I fell in love with a sket
But trust me, I will never do that again

[Chorus: Skepta]
Nah, that's not me
Act like a wasteman? That's not me
Sex any girl? Nah, that's not me
Lips any girl? Nah, that's not me
Yeah, I used to wear LV
I put it all in the bin 'cause that's not me
True, I used to look like you
But dressing like a mess? Nah, that's not me

[Verse 2: Skepta]
See me, I come from the roads
Pricks wanna try and put Skepta on hold
But no, badboy, I've been one of those
Wake up call, you will get one of those
One to the eyeball, one to the nose
I don't really care about your postcode
Take your girl, no dinner, no rose
Two minutes in my bedroom, no clothes
Girls everywhere, girls in the club
Looking at me, tryna make a black man blush
Girls on the high street, girls on the bus
But these niggas wanna hang around us, that's sus
I don't wanna see a Stone Island, cuz
Man talk shit, I just smile and flush
I'm looking for a girl with an X factor
But I don't judge like Simon does

[Verse 3: Jme]
From day one, I said I was serious
Then "Serious" hit the jackpot
People ask what music I make
Turn the volume up cuz, that's what
I don't wear no bait designer brands
I spit deep bars in my black top
You'll never see me smoking a cigarette
Cah cigarette smoker, that's not me
Nah, that's not me, nah, that's not
When I'm on the mic in a rave
I got the whole crowd bubbling like a crack pot
See me and Skepta in a video with a nostalgic backdrop
There'll never be a day when I don't make music
'Cause silent? Nah, that's not me

[Chorus: Skepta]
Nah, that's not me
Act like a wasteman? That's not me
Sex any girl? Nah, that's not me
Lips any girl? Nah, that's not me
Yeah, I used to wear Gucci
I put it all in the bin 'cause that's not me
True, I used to look like you
But dressing like a mess? Nah, nah, nah
Nah, that's not me
Act like a wasteman? That's not me
Sex any girl? Nah, that's not me
Lips any girl? Nah, that's not me
Yeah, I used to wear Gucci
I put it all in the bin 'cause that's not me
True, I used to look like you
But dressing like a mess? Nah, that's not me
