about

I'm still running around, trying to do this this, commentating on what I see daily and the environment around me, attempting to better myself.That's basically what this track is about; the perpetual hustle, the ambition, the
class divide and social infrastructure of the area I inhabit.
I switched my flow up a bit for this one - enjoy.

lyrics

I’m still running around, gunning them down, building up bricks in the house

We’re talking Lego not drugs, never been thugged, except when I switch up my mouth

Good looking out

Got a lot of friends in the blocks so to them I’ll be giving a shout

Repping my crowd, that’s how we are

Stepping too proud it ain’t never allowed

Let me hit em with the real talk, please lord

This life’s up and down like a see saw

It’s tough but not impossible like cutting a steak with a steel fork

Where we walk I see flaws

Imagine this life could have been yours

But when you catch sight of the police force

Accelerate quicker than G force

Why bruv? Cause we poor

They sent my mates off to the sea shore

The council don’t wanna rent cheap floors and the rich only wanted to eat more

Well fuck that take a step back

Nepotism I get that

Work your way up to the top in this world or your stuck in the system till death and

Get drunk get fucked up

Absolout Vodka and that stuff

Wasted can’t fake it

But success I just wanted to taste it

Don't follow follow follow other people...
Don't follow follow follow other people.
Not everyone has been created equal
Don't follow follow follow other people.

London NW3 till the day I die

Living in a Lego building block they complain and cry

Can’t I have the material things there's no way to buy

Scraping by paying my way in life aiming high/

People round here hustle hard only to survive

People ten minutes up the hill jet away and fly

aeroplanes in skies I’m explaining why

The class systems given us different schools of thought combined

They can lock you up but they never can arrest your mind

Freedom in a city where your watched nearly all the time

Make your own luck network lots or get left behind

The division between rich and poors grown wide that’s how it’s designed,

Shit it’s time

For me to make a living off this music or I’m trapped in a prison on the grind

underground like the jubilee line, but listen truly it's fine, cause I

Don't follow follow follow other people...
Don't follow follow follow other people.
Not everyone has been created equal
Don't follow follow follow other people.
