[Verse 1]

It's Kano, you should know my name

Yeah I make beats but flow's my game

And I ain't got no G-G-G-Unit piece

So my whole crew ain't got a frozen chain

It's Kano like I said before

I can spit rock, grime, hip hop and more

I seen old school fall to the floor

But I'm a battler, I get raw in the war

It's Kano, let me say it again

K-A-N-O, let that stay in your brain

If it's a good flow then it must be Kane

I ain't normally this boasty, I must admit

Look, I write songs but I hustle a bit

So I ain't got a problem with busting a lip

And I've already bussed on the road

So bussing mainstream ain't nothing old


[Chorus]

I know I'm bait but I get tempted time and time again

But I know I ain't got no time for fucking playing games

Cause if I'm on crime but I write rhymes then I'll go either way

And I don't know why that I'm so blind that I can't see the way


[Verse 2]

It's Kano, you should know my name

Yeah, I make beats but flow's my game

They don't like the way that I rolled on the road

Roll in the club like I just rolled in off the road

Roll out with rich chicks that roll in the golf

(Wait, 1234, too many gyal!)

Three chicks in the whip, ditched some on the road

Kano is about to give them something to blow

And we're not talking about the something you roll

Wait, this is your whip, why would I be dropping you home?

Look if you're not dropping your clothes and showing us toes

I'll keep hold of your phone and we're robbing your Golf

Jack the toaster, the telly and the landline phone

The DVD player and remote control

Now we're rolling on the motorway, heading for home

Looking ever so bait on the A4 road

Bait crib, bait ends, in my face, it's flames

Please tell me why I'm still playing games


[Chorus]

I know I'm bait but I get tempted time and time again

But I know I ain't got no time for fucking playing games

Cause if I'm on crime but I write rhymes then I'll go either way

And I don't know why that I'm so blind that I can't see the way


[Verse 3]

It's legit thing, that's a big step for me

And I will make mistakes, so let me be

Whether I bring thugs to the set with me

And they take home clothes they was meant to leave

Sometimes, I can't behave myself

I get in so much shit, I amaze myself

My name's Kano, I know you've heard of me

Yeah, I make beats but, but...

I've got a way with the ladies, way with my words

But downright rude, that's the way I prefer

If I don't sell jack then I'll be on the curb

Cause I don't give a crap about being commersh

I know you've already heard the flow

Cause I've been on the grime scene getting reloads

Bunning down raves, still getting weak dough

But I still treat dough the same

If I don't act right then road's to blame

If I hot up a promoter that I don't want to pay

Cause I don't want a cheque, I want cash today

If you told me invoice, I might smash your face

I'm underground, please believe

I just want the Ps and just scrap the fame

How could I ever change over change?

I'll never change I'm the same, Kane


[Chorus]

I know I'm bait but I get tempted time and time again

But I know I ain't got no time for fucking playing games

Cause if I'm on crime but I write rhymes then I'll go either way

And I don't know why that I'm so blind that I can't see the way
