[Verse 1:]

Secondary school dropout

Never home, Man call me a dirty stopout

Ten stone so they think I'm easy to knockout

Until they see me pull a shank or a kosh out

I been in some sticky situations

I ain't lucky, black magic's how I got out

I've been a victim of police discrimination

I've already clocked 'em long before they hop out

There's only one option it's way too hot out

What's the problem, they don't wanna see an Ex-con out?

I know they ain't harassing every Harry, Dick and Tom out

I'm just doing a promo for my very latest song out

I ain't done fuck all go back to the cop house

This is illegal hustle, see me handing any rock out? (No)

Go ahead get the sniffing dog out

Then apologise when you have to let me go

Cause you ain't gonna find shit, except my dough

Not one line on me, no extra phone

And an answer every time they felt a question go

Like, 'where I'm coming from?'

I just left Jerome's

Like, 'where I'm heading to?'

I'm heading home

Like what I do for money

Look, I'm selling loads of CD's

This is really a stepping stone

I leave shows with a bag five in the envelope

And my agenda so busy I don't get to roll

With the mandem like before

I wanna let 'em know

The other day I watched an episode of Friends

And it reminded me of when we were together most days

Now it's like he couldn't see me through a telescope

(Fuck) What's wrong with me?

Pick up a telephone

Dial the number in

If it rings out leave a message

So the record shows when I called

But for all I know a brother could be livin' like an Eskimo

Heaven knows it's been a while since Swift linked up

Tell your family said hello (hello)

It's music people know me for

But my people are my people so they know me more

And when it comes to success

My nigga Ish would tell you music isn't the only door

Football was a good call

Even if you team ain't anywhere within the Premier

The way it's going on it won't be long before it gets him there

Now his head is clear I bet he has a better year

Get the P's in

These pockets are big enough to keep the Queen in

Some call me GH, Peacon calls me G-son

My name used to be J-Reaper and then Freedom

My birth name's Justin

My dawgs call me Wretch

What's next?

Ghetts; I swapped the O for the S

Oh yes

I'm a man with a lot of names

A man with dirt on my hands I can't wash away

A man only hell can accommodate

But I'm also a man only God could change

I smoke til the pain's gone away

Blue slims, Mayfair and some proper Haze

When it comes to Chronic, I'm Dr. Dre

Two eighths a day

How much can my body take?

Lose control when the drugs start to dominate

I can't act like the thought ain't never crossed my brain (it has)

It ain't nothing rare

It's a common case

I can make drugs disappear, there's a lot of ways

Can't say no

Where the weed at?

Get the light out

I'm Winehouse, no Rehab

It's not affecting my music in any way

No way, all I need is a mic with no feedback

I used to get the peng off Mishak

Now he's on remand for something that he never did

Police keep locking up the mandem

Where the keys at?

Free Titch, free Ashman and free Shaq

Free Shorts and free my nigga T-man

And when each and every one of them are home

All I'm gonna say is 'how does it feel to be a free man?'

Free Shocks, free Shots when he lands

Oops I nearly forgot, when's Aaron out?

That's a nigga that I can't wait to see back about (MY NIGGA!)

I just heard Smokey's back in

I never knew, what happened now?

In fact the feds were always tryna catch him

They let him go and get him again when he's back around

It's a vicious cycle and I'm glad I'm out

Repping my niggas through the music

I'mma throw a party when they're back in town

Big dance, massive crowd

Get the champagne

Get the cameras out

Take a picture my nigga

So it's a permanent fixture my nigga

Come smoke, come and have a drink with me, nigga

Come to a show

Come on a link with me nigga

Couple girls, you can take one or two

Introduce a group to Ame on the loop

Reminiscing

As this beat stays on a loop

Ross is on lock but when he's not make room
