[Intro]

Chapter, 1, Verse 1: God Knows

Yeah


[Chorus]

God knows that I got a good heart but I do not go for the disrespect

God knows that I been through the blood and the sweat, you bet I’m a nervous wreck

God knows If I say I come for a cheque, then a cheque is what I expect

God knows I’m a pain in the neck

God knows, better watch your step

God knows that I got a good heart but I do not go for the disrespect

God knows that I been through the blood and the sweat, you bet I’m a nervous wreck

God knows If I say I come for a cheque, then a chequе is what I expect

God knows I’m a pain in the nеck

God knows, better watch your step


[Verse 1: Dizzee Rascal]

Yeah, Gotta be patient

Steady pace and a bit of meditation

I got away from the self-medication

But I’m still myself on occasion

Yeah, I’m still myself, not an imitation

Elevation, headspace and another location

Vacation

Play away, I don’t stay at my station

Got a brand new space, it’s amazing

Switching up my cadence and my phrasing

Buzzwords, been chasing the buzz but it’s fading

I don’t know the last time I’ve been raving

But the last couple nights, I’ve been craving

I don’t care what manor you were raised in, or you’re claiming

Everybody in the manor’s complaining

And it’s draining

I’m not a caveman, I will never cave in

Plain sailing, I’m not slaving

Even if I spent my whole life savings

I could never buy the Lambo 4x4 in every goddamn colour it came in

But I’m good for the days that it’s raining

And I'm the reigning champ, no training

I’m natural, look at them failing and flailing

Trying hard, but you ain’t maintaining

Everybody but you that you’re blaming

Your behaviour’s lame, it’s a shame

You could say it was degrading

Do your own brain in

No-brainer, you’ll get a caning

Get slicked, get spit in your cranium

They’re like ‘Jesus, somebody save him!’


[Chorus]

God knows that I got a good heart but I do not go for the disrespect

God knows that I been through the sweat and the blood, you bet I’m a nervous wreck

God knows If I say I come for a cheque, then a cheque is what I expect

God knows I’m a pain in the neck

God knows, better watch your step

God knows that I got a good heart but I do not go for the disrespect

God knows that I been through the sweat and the blood, you bet I’m a nervous wreck

God knows If I say I come for a cheque, then a cheque is what I expect

God knows I’m a pain in the neck

God knows, better watch your step


[Verse 2: P Money]

Walked in the game, like I bet you were gonna respect me

Grime MC in a room full of dubstep guys, I bet you were gonna accept me

Before the trap, not one of them checked me

Next album, you were gonna resent me

So-called bad boys, ’til we see bad boys running up everyone here except me

Cah man's [?] get me, I bet you bet me

You man couldn’t best me, it’s best you let me

Pay upfront like I’m ST, focus

Then I got drive like a Focus ST

You don’t know me just cos you met me

Racial profiles, man had plenty

I had white dads I roll with the mustang

Cos I kicked it with Aaliyah like Jet Li

(Wow) Shut up, don’t bred me

Tired of sets, bare MCs pushing up chest, like ‘Rah, who you man tryna breast feed?’

Simmer down, chill out and R-E-S-T (‘lax)

No emotions, like come on

I can’t let no relationship wreck me

I phone a motive like

"Yo come get me,"

Next minute, tings on a mug like Tetley

(She’s got a man) but tell him test my patience

Turn patient if you test me

Big boy Mc, Bring out Dizzee Rascal, Giggs and Jme (Jheeze)

God knows when I MC

It’s all laughing, I got flows when I MC

Tour guy and that, shows when I MC

But diss me and get shown when I MC


[Chorus]

God knows that I got a good heart but I do not go for the disrespect

God knows that I been through the sweat and the blood, you bet I’m a nervous wreck

God knows If I say I come for a cheque, then a cheque is what I expect

God knows I’m a pain in the neck

God knows, better watch your step

God knows that I got a good heart but I do not go for the disrespect

God knows that I been through the sweat and the blood, you bet I’m a nervous wreck

God knows If I say I come for a cheque, then a cheque is what I expect

God knows I’m a pain in the neck

God knows, better watch your step
