Mad - Intellectual

[Intro]

(Must be the reasons why I'm king of my castle) Yo

(Must be the reasons why I'm free in my tracksuit)

Swifta production

Yeah

(Must be the reasons why I'm king of my castle)

Man know the season

(Must be the reasons why I'm making examples of you)

Yo, watch this

[Verse 1]

So man wanna reach the heights that I've reached

They wanna drive the cars that I've driven

The clothes I get given, there's way too many

And my new walk-in wardrobe can't fit 'em

They wanna do the things that I've done

They wanna do it the way that I did it

I'm the originator, never been a mimic

And a Honda Accord could never be a Civic (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I used to play Tony Hawk's

But them days are done, I'm not ramping with him

And man are still tryna make diss tracks

But there'll never be another "Relegation Riddim"

I get straight to the point

So the agenda's not hidden

You can go and tell the king that I'm coming

This isn't the Game of Thrones, if it was

Then the 01 to the 61's got a dragon

Forget about Winnie the Pooh or Aladdin

It's not a Disney story I'm chatting (Nah)

None of these MCs can fuck with me

Cuh they do more talking than they do rapping (Nah)

I don't know why you talk about trapping

Them man are soft like butter, I'm stabbing

You can straight bar for bar all you want (Yeah)

But man know bar for bar that I'm savage (Jeez)

Man know bar for bar, I do damage (True)

I'll leave an MC's headtop cabbage

Leave enemies in the past just like jungle and garage (Yeah)

Now she wants to get married

Cause she's seen me in gloves and a bally (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Heard I'm an MC and I get paid good wages

To make the crowd go manic (Yeah)

I used to make change in the snow (Yeah)

I would have 50 pots in one grow (Yeah)

Now I get paid in shorts and a T-shirt

Cause I've got shows all over the globe (Mad)

I hope this one's not a fix or a hoax

Got nominated for best video

Nobody's done what I've done this year

This time listen to the people's vote (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Anyway, no big ting

I've got a new tracksuit, no big ting

Same JD suit, no big ting

Some all-black split man's wig ting

Some matte black hitman sick ting

The kind of tracksuit man use to make a man go missing (Gone)

This is supply and demand part two

Cuh the old T-shirt sold on a quick ting (Yeah, yeah)

Yo, the green light means go (Yeah)

But the red light means don't phone my phone (Yeah)

Speaking of red lights, I was in Amsterdam

So high you would have thought I smoked (Yeah)

One space cake had my legs like jelly

I'm usually light on my feet like Pele (What?)

I couldn't stop giggling

I was walking round the district higher than Kevin and Perry

It's mad, never thought I would see a penny

Then I just spent way too much on a three-part music video

Just so I could make the club scene entrance look like Belly (Mad)

Them man are slow like Tom and I'm Jerry (Mad)

Them man are Ron Weasley and I'm Harry (Mad)

How are they gassed cause of Brotherhood?

They're only there cause I was way too busy

I don't know what happened with Adam Deacon

But you can't get me in a sequel for pennies (No)

Not when Section 8 has got set directors

Looking like they're not ready (Yeah)

I've been in the top ten twice

And certain MCs can't even get a top twenty

People lie, numbers don't

I count but right now, I've got too many (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Look, none of these niggas scare me (Nah)

They act like they cannot hear me (Ah)

Do you believe your girlfriend's with you

Cause you're a peng ting? You don't really (Nah)

You and I both know that he's weird, G

Now I know why these niggas fear me

If I was you

I wouldn't let your girlfriend come anywhere near me (Mad, mad, mad, mad)

It's mad, cuh dem man know I'm coming up fast

Kick that door off, take that cash

It was groggy season

And man kept sending for the invisible man (Yeah)

Brand new tracksuit, all in black

Man don't wanna see me going on rags

Everybody knows that I, I

Turn into the devil when I get mad

[Chorus]

Mad, turn into the devil when I get mad

[Verse 2]

There's levels to this shit, I know mine

She's not a ten, she's a low five (Dead ting)

She's a minor, I'm a gold mine

I sent her back to the roadside (Ay)

I can't embarrass anybody

That's embarrassing themselves (Ah yeah)

2000 likes on Instagram

Doesn't mean that your name is ringing bells

You're a has-been and everybody can tell (Yeah)

If you're a snake, you and I won't gel (Yeah)

Copying me was never gonna help

You're just an imposter (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

He got an A in his GCSEs

And he's still not clever like me (Not clever)

Went to uni and then got a degree

But he's still not clever like me (Not clever)

See, back in 2013

I went to the Jobcentre to jobseek

Now I can stay in bed until two o'clock

And make ten grand on a bad week (Mad)

I am the lone soldier of this scene

And nobody's fucking with me (Watch this)

I am the wolf and them man are sheep

And nobody's fucking with me (Watch this)

They want me out the game as we speak

But nobody's fucking with me (Are you watching?)

And if you don't know and you wanna know why

It's cause I've got Manchester behind me, watch this

Look, man tried fucking with the King of the North

And got stopped at the door (Yeah)

That's cause I had archers shooting down from the fort (Yeah)

They ran off the mission screaming, "Abort", ahh (Yeah)

[Bridge]

Must be the reasons why I'm king of my castle

Must be the reasons why I'm free in my tracksuit

Must be the reasons why I'm king of my castle

Must be the reasons why I'm making examples of you

[Chorus]

Mad, turn into the devil when I get mad

[Bridge]

Must be the reasons why I'm king of my castle (Mad)

Must be the reasons why I'm free in my tracksuit (Mad)

Must be the reasons why I'm king of my castle (Mad)

Must be the reasons why I'm making examples of you (Mad)

[Outro]

Of you
