[Chorus]

What do you call it, garage? (What do you call it?)

What do you call it, garage?

Garage?

What do you call it, urban?

What do you call it, urban?

Urban?

What do you call it, two-step?

What do you call it, two-step?

Two-step?

Tell us what you call it then


[Verse 1]

Garage?

I don't care about garage

Listen to this - it don't sound like garage

Who told you that I make garage?

Wiley Kat'z got his own sound - it's not garage

Make it in the studio and not in the garage

Here in London there's a sound called garage but

This is my sound, it sure ain't garage

I heard they don't like me in garage

'Cause I use their scene but make my own sound

The Eskimo sound is mine, recognise it's mine

You can't claim what's mine

It's my time to bait you up

I don't hate you but some of you have got a problem

I'm putting you out of business, why is that a problem?

What's your problem?

What the heck my name is problem, remember?


[Chorus]

What do you call it, garage? (What do you call it?)

What do you call it, garage?

What do you call it, urban?

What do you call it, urban?

What do you call it, two-step?

What do you call it, two-step?

What do you call it?

Tell us what you call it then


[Verse 2]

Why do you think that I'm stupid?

I got brains I could never be stupid

You can never use my name to make your raves jam

I won’t turn up, I'll stay at home with my girl and jam

You can't threaten me with no bad man talk, I’m not scared sorry man

But I've seen so much now, I don't give a monkey's

Swing from tree to tree just like monkeys

Who influenced me to be funky

Who influenced me to make Eski Beat

I make Eski Girls and Eski Boys

Move their feet to the sound you can hear

I hear you try to stop my record sales, record deals

But the belt can't hold the waist in (the waist in)

If it gets too big and it's tremblin', then POP!

It blows up and we win (I'm winning)

Ready to say my goodbyes

Goodbye to the man who don't like me

Goodbye to the woman who don't like me

Goodbye to the fingers pointing at me

Goodbye to the promoters that hate me

Goodbye to the people that's hassling me 'cause

I'm turning over a new leaf

Get sharp like a knife in the sheath

Stay sharp like a knife cutting beef

Cut the strings, there's no grief

If you don't cut the strings there's more grief

See I get the impression I'm not wanted

So I'm leaving your scene that's what we wanted

That's what I wanted, I'm on my way now

Wish me luck, I'm doing my thing now

To the fans let's go, everyone who likes this let's go


[Bridge]

Everyone who likes that go that way

Go that way, go that way, go that way

Go that way, go that way, go that way

Everyone who likes this come this way

(come this way) let's go this way

Let's go this way, let's go this way

Let's go this way, Let's go this way


[Verse 3]

I'm carrying weight, I break everyone down

Take everybody down

Any crew any sound

Any MC who's in my way I break down

I can show you now - it's all changed round

I remember - things were the other way round

When the world got colder and it changed round

I go to every manor and its all changed round

I want everybody to follow this sound so

Don't deny the power of my empire

When I'm hit I strike back with my empire

No more crew, so what? We got an empire

Roll Deep empire high power, high power yo

I'm a compulsory buyer

Go to the shops and I spend them, buy what I want and

This is Roll deep empire

If you work hard then you can be a buyer

Like me
