VEX Lyrics
[Intro: BackRoad Gee]
If I shoot my shot, my darg I won't miss
Outside me tek risk, eliminate risk
On the pitch I assist, ling it ling it
Frib it frib it
Spin it
[Chorus: Avelino]
They know that I'm smokey
I been on fire with no heat
I don't even smoke like that
I'm with the piff ting piffing on stogey
Yeah, bros over hoes so I pull up with broski
He was on a bus with man now the gang got bucked down chokey
Shorty said choke me, then gave me neck
Celibate ting just gave me sex
More money more problems, might have to pay me less
Never made enough and it made me vex, vex, vex, vex, vex, vex
I just want to fuck up a cheque vex, vex, vex, vex, vex, vex
Show me the money I'm there
[Verse 1: Avelino]
Yeah, show me respect, money and power, triple threat
I been on tour but I'm still on the ends
Nationwide but I don't do F
Fuck what they said, fuck what you heard, I'm God in the flesh
I'm in Christian down to the creps, public figures on private jets
Yeh, local lad but I'm overseas, just spent more than a gold AP, I don't know what came over me
But I'm over the hype, still roll deep when I roll with the guys
We was trapping that Katie Price, it's all for a pair of Jordan 5s
[Chorus: Avelino]
They know that I'm smokey
I been on fire with no heat
I don't even smoke like that
I'm with the piff ting piffing on stogey
Yeah, bros over hoes so I pull up with broski
He was on a bus with man now the gang got bucked down chokey
Yeah, shorty said choke me, then gave me neck
Celibate ting just gave me sex
More money more problems, might have to pay me less
Never made enough and it made me
[Verse 2: Ghetts]
Vex, angry, cross and miserable, I know that I can be difficult
I went various schools but that's not why I've got principles
Hold on Av (Yo G), I just needed an interval
More money, more problems, but I wouldn't want your problems cah they're real minuscule
Man don't know about anger till they've had a family member killed by cancer
Man don't know about vex till they've got innocent members doing a stretch
Man don't know about rainfall until there's a drought and you ain't got an 8 ball
Man don't know about indie, cost them boy there always add the label
I told them years, months, weeks, days, hours in advance
Please, I don't want my flowers in a vase
In a bad boy whip at 15, couldn't even parallel park, no licence
I ain't even had a girl ask
[Break: BackRoad Gee]
If I shoot my shot, my darg I won't miss
Outside me tek risk, eliminate risk
On the pitch I assist, ling it ling it
Frib it frib it
Spin it
[Chorus: Avelino]
They know that I'm smokey
I been on fire with no heat
I don't even smoke like that
I'm with the piff ting piffing on stogey
Yeah, bros over hoes so I pull up with broski
He was on a bus with man now the gang got bucked down chokey
Yeah, shorty said choke me, then gave me neck
Celibate ting just gave me sex
More money more problems, might have to pay me less
Never made enough and it made me vex, vex, vex, vex, vex, vex
I just want to fuck up a cheque vex, vex, vex, vex, vex, vex
Show me the money I'm there
VEX Q&A
What did Avelino say about "VEX"?
Avelino:
Vex embodies my suggestion that rap is the new punk. In a world where the punk movement is no longer the music of the streets, we’ve taken its place and this hard hitting collaboration with my brothers Ghetts & BackRoad was the perfect way of embodying that. It was a pleasure to have G...
What have the artists said about the song?
Avelino:
I was going to see [British songwriter and producer] Fraser T Smith one day. We listened to the album and he’s making notes: ‘There’s a sound that’s missing from here…a space here, there’s an energy missing on this part.’ Then I played him this song, and he’s like: ‘This is the one for the...
