Stay calm, we don't back down (Back down, back down)
Stand strong when they sat down (Sat down, sat down)
I'm playing hard in the background (Background, background)
Ay
Stay calm, we don't back down
I'm maxed out with no handout
Stay calm, we don't back down (Back down)
And I say it like
Stand strong when they sat down (Sat down)
I don't like the time
I'm playing hard in the background (Background)
But I'll show you up
Stay calm, we don't back down
I'm maxed out with no handout
So many of these lies
And they talk a lot
Say they made it selling drugs
They ain't placed at a stop
And they paying for a lot
Nothing special about a thug
Where does the fun stop?
Have we made it?
Better off lost than afraid here
For the thug life
For the young minds
Looking up at the telly
And all they getting is ready to do a crime
See them coming up with danger in their eyes
All because a label got no side
'Cause you're caught in the crossfire, ay, ay
We ain't fine (Back down, back down)
There's a lot that's been hidden by the curtain full of lies
And they try
(Background)
Say it's love when it's fun
When it's not, ay
Stay calm, we don't back down (Back down)
And I say it like
Stand strong when they sat down (Sat down)
I don't like the time
I'm playing hard in the background (Background)
But I'll show you up
Stay calm, we don't back down
I'm maxed out with no handout
So many of these lies
And they talk a lot
Say they made it selling drugs
They ain't placed at a stop
And they paying for a lot
Nothing special about a thug
Limp when they walk
Hoping for the flow
Always making move
Tell me why it won't
What you talking 'bout bruv
You're a street rat
Don't come 'round here
Got big plans on your foot point eight
And a seven-five
No joke bro your attitude's cold
Roll up the wrists with secret smoke
Chill out just a bit
Take a big boy talk
We're still cruising quick
But my mind equal
Need some time for peace of mind
And since the big bro died
My emotions high
Know I never really struggled with my softer side
But I still feel guilt for the lack of times, ay
We ain't fine
There's a lot that's been hidden by the curtain full of lies
And they try
Say it's love when it's fun
When it's not, ay
Stay calm, we don't back down (Back down)
And I say it like
Stand strong when they sat down (Sat down)
I don't like the time
I'm playing hard in the background (Background)
(Sat down)
But I'll show you up
Stay calm, we don't back down
I'm maxed out with no handout
So many of these lies
And they talk a lot
Say they made it selling drugs
They ain't placed at a stop
And they paying for a lot
Nothing special about a thug
