ugzy Malone - M.E.N II
Yo
Bugzy Malone
You know
I hit the top like I don't know what
Now 500's Play-Doh gwop
And these man tryna take my spot when
I'm sitting at home with writer's block
But there's not an emcee as eloquent as me
Let me get that clear
And my accountant said
I can make a million and not make a track this year
Now how's that for a turnover
I made a gilet and a holster
Felt like I looked in the mirror
When I seen the new JD poster
And it sold out so fast
They want me to sign contracts like they're O2 or Voda
In exchange for exposure
But still I don't feel any closer to the real answer
Why did I wanna be a gangster
When will I get rid of this pain
Feels like I'm in handcuffs
I wanna fly to the south of France
I wanna learn how to Salsa dance
The chef come here
'Cause everybody in the restaurant kept watching man
And I'm thinking wait are they watching man
Did he think I'm a prick or are they just secret fans
Blessed by a God fear no man
But my heart still beats when I see a police van
I was hungover
In Phuket I couldn't stay sober
I needed a break from pulling a straight face
I don't play poker
I was out there looking at the pelicans
Stroking the tigers and elephants
Emcees all fighting for relevance
But I'm on the next level of eloquence
Where do I get it from
Did I get it from him
Could it be a white could it be a black thing
Must be the reason I'm the captain
Must be the reason I overlapped him
'Cause I'm dedicated
Me I could have got relegated
Imagine I would have hesitated
Where would I be if I never made it
But I did
Now I'm in a new 7 bedroom crib
With spotlights in the ceiling it's sick
No bean bag I've got a Lamborghini on the ramp
And I don't use it
I've got a grand piano in front of
The Mona and everything co**ine white
But I don't get to see it much these days
'Cause I'm always out taking a flight
Thinking about before it all went bad
Never got dissed off my real dad
And now he tells people that I never give him anything
As if he was there from scratch
How did it get so negative
Between old friends and fake relatives
I've come quite far on a reminisce
To get rid of these toxic energies
An old friend tells people that I put money on his head
As if I'm still pissed off
And we was friends from about year 9
And he tried to get my door kicked off
Co**ine's one hell of a dr*g
Yeah I've seen what it does
I watched man fall from the mountains
Turned from a bad boy to a scruff
I'm still out here holding it up
I'm still backstage holding a cup
Dark is still my co-defendant
I'm in a film about money and dr*gs
I told my agent
Tell Guy Ritchie he don't need to pay me
As I was watching Snatch
That's my all time favourite gangster movie
I ended up in the GR
Singing Irish songs to the ukulele
Sophisticated conversation
Had me feeling so creative So creative
I feel detached from reality
Now I'm on a footballer's salary
I flew to Rome
And the roof of the Sistine chapel
Look like an art gallery
Me I got close to insanity
On the roads I am moving raggity
Now I'm in the Vatican thinking strategy
Can't think of an emcee in my category
All this from a 1- bedroom flat
I wanted a reminder not to look back
That's the reason why
I got 'King of the North' tattooed
Right across my six-pack
And the artist came from Italia
The home of the mafia
I'm never in debt I'm a Lannister
You know I'm of a different calibre
I climbed to the top without a banister
And last year got smashed no manager
Man can say what they want but I'll
Never let anyone assassinate my character
Some relationships don't work
And the separation hurts
I know these are simple words
But I always told her I loved her first
I used to be so immature
Even though the love was pure
I was never always all yours
Some of them nights on tour
You could've walked out through the open door
When the love turned into a war
And now I'm gonna buy you a house so you know
You're secure Sometimes I don't know no no no
Let me get it off my chest
Turns out how no matter how much money I make I still
Can't pay to correct
All of the trauma it still feels fresh
But never again will that get me depressed
Don't mind going out as a legend as
Long as I'm known as Manchester's best
Sometimes I don't know no no no
Sometimes I don't know no no no
Sometimes I don't kno- oh oh oh
Sometimes I don't know
Sometimes I don't know no no no
Sometimes I don't know no no no
Sometimes I don't kno- oh oh oh
Sometimes I don't know
