Done Know

(album: Snakes & Ladders - 2021)

This that I understand wave
This that I overstand wave
From a young age, we over a plan wave, you know?
Ayy (NA), yo

I see yutes on ends patrolling (Woo), strapped up, riding, rolling (Bow-bow)
I salute them like I know them, done know (Ayy, ayy)
Hate when they see you progress, no matter how much love you show them (Ayy, woo, ayy, woo)
Can't help it when you're chosen (Woo, woo), done know (Woo, woo, ayy, ayy)
Step with God on my side, these times everyone's carrying knives
But where I'm from, that just life, done know (Ayy, ayy)
And if he don't carry that skeng, he know when his paigons see him, he dead (Bow, bow, bow, bow, bow, bow, bow)
Tell me what you know about life and death, done know

Boy, just stop it (Allow it)
Rapping like you got real beef, I heard that you squashed it
I had a little battle with six MC's (Uh-huh), I can't call that beef (Nah)
If you see your opps and pull out your camera (Wait there), what you call that, G? (For the Gram)
I checked grandma in the hood as I always would, always will
She don't ever wanna move (Nope), and I can't tell her how to feel (Hmm-hmm)
Kids might see me and diamonds shining, tell you how pressure feels (Big facts)
I was in college in the heart of Tottenham when I first signed a deal
Where gunshots go off for real (Brrt)
Just rocking my Rollie (Hmm), I was year nine in Stoney (Hmm)
Number four rise been boast (Hmm)
Ask round, they all know me darg (Woo)
Hornsey right round to Finsbury Park (Woo)
Couldn't cut me a half of B (Woo), luckily I got dope from bars (Lucky)
Always been on my P's and Q's, G's, zip
Rum and KA sipping (Ayy)
If you ain't got a (Ayy) blitz between (Ayy) your clique, that's (Woah)
Still walking off (Yep) if I ain't whipping (Yep)
No God got me (Yep), I ain't tripping (Yep)
In the barber shop (Yep), like I ain't slipping (See 'em, see 'em, see 'em)
Yaga
Yo

I see yutes on ends patrolling (Skrr), strapped up, riding, rolling (Bow-bow)
I salute them like I know them, done know (Ayy, ayy)
Hate when they see you progress, no matter how much love you show them (Ayy, woo, ayy, woo)
Can't help it when you're chosen (Woo, woo), done know (Woo, woo, ayy, ayy)
Step with God on my side, these times everyone's carrying knives
But where I'm from, that just life (That's just life), done know (Ayy, ayy)
And if he don't carry that skeng, he know when his paigons see him, he dead (Bow, bow, bow, bow, bow, bow, bow)
Tell me what you know about life and death (Real life), done know

I see yutes in the ends patrolling, I was seventeen tryna be on my pole ting (Wah)
I couldn't care less about voting (Suh)
Thirteen trying to steal for a living, then I just started to rob like Holding (Suh)
First time I got nicked police gave me a caution, they know I done that poking (Turn, turn, turn, turn, turn)
The birds to the bros for a joke ting, I would've never known it (Turn, told me, turn, ayy)
Couldn't ever get like this, everyone's out using Motorola's (One)
I could've been dead or in jail, bet on my life and will that's progress (Talk)
Young nigga coming off coke heads, how still answer the nizzy and Stoney
They wanna ban drill, but I touch roads that I had with drill (One)
The come up was real, cah they really don't want man to drill (Bye)
Stuck on the track, they don't want us to win, we just got to be tactical (One)
I just want my unborn kids all good when I write my will (Realness)
I'm just tryna jugg the drawer out and write these riddims (One)
Qway when were back in the trap house just tryna slide this sim in (Turn)
Growing up in Tottenham, tryna learn how to rhyme like Chippy (Turn, turn, turn, turn)
I live life on the edge (Turn, turn), but I thank God for the life I'm living (Turn, turn, turn)

I see yutes on ends patrolling (Skrr), strapped up, riding, rolling (Bow-bow)
I salute them like I know them, done know (Ayy, ayy)
Hate when they see you progress, no matter how much love you show them (Ayy, woo, ayy, woo)
Can't help it when you're chosen (Woo, woo), done know (Woo, woo, ayy, ayy)
Step with God on my side, these times everyone's carrying knives
But where I'm from, that just life, done know (Turn, turn, turn, turn, ayy, ayy)
And if he don't carry that skeng, he know when his paigons see him, he dead (Bow, bow, bow, bow, bow, bow, bow)
Tell me what you know about life and death (Real life), done know
