Three Musketeers

(album: Alpha Place - 2022)

Yo, aye
Who woulda knew these two in my crew
Woulda still been my Gs since school?
I woulda never have up and left if there wasn't a reason to
North West and West to the death
We was one for all and we all for one'ing
Small don seen it all from young
But could never have saw what's coming

I first met L'z in primary
Until year 5 thinking Sly didn't like me
Started yapping one time in line and from then we were tied like Siamese
TP come a little bit after, from a next school in West
We always deeped he a little bit smarter
We used to eyeball his tests
Like bless
Then the bros got closer
Left Alpha House, check em both in Mozart
'Round about when the term was over
Mum 'llowed me out but she said "Don't go far"
Then we hit year 7, to the same school in Kenton
I couldn't tell you my favourite lesson 'cause all a don knew was detention
Did I mention that the tension was rising
Back in the ends we reside in
L'z's family and bredrins were tied in
And guys from my ends didn't like him
Man we're getting bored and I ain't have a clue
Recording in avenues
'Round that time got sent back to Naij
But was still representing my crew

Who woulda knew these two in my crew
Woulda still been my Gs since school?
I woulda never have up and left if there wasn't a reason to
North West and West to the death
We was one for all and we all for one'ing
Small don seen it all from young
But could never have saw what's coming

Remember when broski first went OT and phoned me
He told me the queen's in purple
Was always one to believe shit's verbal
He said trust me this T's not herbal
Then the nerds that he worked for
Taught him to fry up a bird like the colonel
Who you calling a chicken?
If all went to shit I was picking the bird call
Like no wonder they sent me away
Was like 11 alone on the terminal
Cold, just tryna go home, it was hurtful
All I wanted was mum's embrace
When I came back
Where I call home was a whole other place
Dad said I'll come home to my mates
But it was the lie for me
Now I'm stood with an open plate
Looking for rice and peas
Doing up Wiley, where's my brother? Looking to find my G's
If T wasn't round I was running with L'z
Knuckles, Sonic and Tails
But things changed in summer '012
I caught game, he was flung in cell
They had T sitting down for a robbery
Probably the worst news then that could bother me
But the same year L'z's cousin, my other G
Died in crash, blud, imagine the fuckery
I couldn't even post RIP
'Cause some of my SK dargs might see
Even though we made tunes in the studio
And he would say he wan' bar like me

Who woulda knew these two in my crew
Woulda still been my Gs since school?
I woulda never have up and left if there wasn't a reason to
North West and West to the death
We was one for all and we all for one'ing
Small don seen it all from young
But could never have saw what's coming

Who woulda knew these two in my crew
Woulda still been my Gs since school?
I woulda never have up and left if there wasn't a reason to
North West and West to the death
We was one for all and we all for one'ing
Small don seen it all from young
But could never have saw what's coming

(So that's why I'm like, bruv, like this shit is a blessing bro
The fact that all three of us are here
And that dream's still possible
Yo, this motherfucker will do it bruv
He will do it now
You get what I'm saying, like
Man are all driving, I copped my car the other day
Yeah, I copped it still
Certi still, certi, certi, it's only right
Man are, man are here, do you get what I'm saying?
Making the moves that we said we would
Yeah, man
He was tapped, bro)

Blud, sit down in your seat
Lick my body, come on, repeat
Knuckles, and I can rinse any beat
On a beef ting, get knocked off your feet
Blud, don't run your gun
It will be harder on your mum
Cry over the death of her son
'Cause you get chewed like Trident gum
