[Interlude 1: Jme & Jason Adenuga]

I don't care man

I ain't lying, I don't care man

I ain't...

Just say it wasn't you man

Nah man, I'm telling the truth

Just say you dunno who did it, you don't know who done it, just say it weren't you man

But I do know who done it, what you talking about? I'ma tell the truth

I ain't lying

Lie innit

What am I gonna lie for? I ain't got nothing to hide


[Verse 1]

It all started off normal

No one was on a hype

But Skepta had a tool and all I had was a knife

I said, "I'm gonna tell the truth," but they all said I should lie

But I thought, "Why the hell should I flippin' lie for? I got nothing to hide"

We was all getting ready, yeah, I could feel it was gonna kick off

My patience was drawing thin already as Skepta took his coat off

I think that's when it all started you know, the hype of Skepta’s head

And plus, 'cause he had the tool in his hand, nothing needed to be said

All I heard was bang! And I swear I heard something smashed

So I dropped the knife on the floor and I went to help Skepta 'cause I was baffed

But then when I got there, he was lying on the floor

And the whole place was a mess

There was a little bit of blood, but I expected more

We all started arguing, as if that was gonna help the case

I was gonna call the ambulance but I didn't want it to escalate

Yeah I know it sounds a bit dumb, I really should have picked up the phone

But I knew that any minute now we was expecting you home

[Interlude 2: Jme & Ify Adenuga (Jme's Mum)]

Jamie…

Yes mum?

Is Junior alright?

Yeah, he’s alright man

Put your brother on the phone for me please, let me speak to him

Nah he’s alright man he’s alright, it’s just a little cut

Have you called the police?

What are we calling the police for?


[Verse 2]

When I said Skepta had a tool, I didn't mean a gun, I meant a hammer

He was assembling your birthday present, he got you a wardrobe, I got you a camera

Then Julie came home from Ikea, 'cause she went to get you a vase

And the reason I had a knife is 'cause I was cutting your cake in half

Then Skepta started getting all hyper, kept on mucking about with the tools

Then the hammer slipped from his hand and smashed the vase and scratched up your walls

That's when I heard the bang, I dropped the knife and went to go check

'Cause your surprise birthday party was just turning into a wreck

Don't worry it was nothing major, Julie was a bit upset

And Skepta cut his finger, and the front room was a mess

That's when we started arguing, about who was in the wrong

But don't worry I’ll buy you a new vase, anyway happy birthday mum

[Interlude 3: Jme & Jason Adenuga]

Jason get me the dustpan

Whewwww…

That's messy man

Look at the mess man, come

Ahh man

See that's what you have to do man, I told you what to do man, just tell the truth man

Yeah I know, I know, I know, ha, ha

See now you're gonna laugh, look at you laughing man, I see

Ha, ha

Flippin' hell, can we tidy up, let's tidy all this up before dad comes back, 'cause I ain't really into dad's shouting, you get me? Come

Yeah come then, come, come, come

Next time let's tell the truth innit, no lie
