[Intro]

Top of the tower blocks

My man' on the box and the govs turned the showers off

Can't even hold a fresh today

Crack babies ain't eaten since yesterday

[Verse 1]

Outside in them thermals

It was cold but it was frying like chicken from the Colonel

Whip the water to a whirlpool

You ain't got no cash money but you tryna make a bird call

Keep your nose out the shit that don't concern you

Dress like a sheep but I'm a werewolf

I want the chopper with the full moon

I made plans, tell her, "Fall through"

Now she wanna be my small spoon

She like things that go bling-bling and the cars that go vroom-vroom

That's until you in that courtroom

A lot of man said they're winning, spoke too soon

I can never be a has-been or used-to

You know I'm rocking like U2

Before YouTube, I've been the what's-what, the who's-who

You ain't got a Scooby-Doo or a Blue's Clue

[Chorus]

Tales from the top of the tower blocks

I do this for my mans on the box and the govs turned the showers off

Can't even hold a fresh today

Crack babies ain't eaten since yesterday

Milk's sour and you gotta throw the bread away

I ain't Pac, I've seen better days, gotta be a better way

When mum went church for her problems

All the pastor said was, "Let us pray"

[Verse 2]

I feel surrounded by the treachery

I was hunted, I was hounded by the Met Police

Somebody talking, I can't even trust the man that's standing next to me

In these streets, I've seen friendships end with rest in peace

It's getting grimier and slimier

I got suttin by the wardrobe that'll send you to Narnia

In these waters where the sharks and piranhas are

I got Caribbean killers and they're moving like the pirates of Somalia

I keep one up top, akh, and I make it go bla-da-da

Make 'em dance like cha-cha-cha

Then put a suit on and smoke a Cuban

In this game, you must remain a student

In the dance, make it rain till you cave the roof in

She grew a little fatty and her waist reducing

Rappers all trash and I'm waste removal, it's just business as usual

[Chorus]

Tales from the top of the tower blocks

I do this for my mans on the box and the govs turned the showers off

Can't even hold a fresh today

Crack babies ain't eaten since yesterday

Milk's sour and you gotta throw the bread away

I ain't Pac, I've seen better days, gotta be a better way

When mum went church for her problems

All the pastor said was, "Let us pray"
