Guvna B – Home (E16) lyrics

[Verse 1]
Man I grew up on UKG
Cassette tapes and radio recorder daily show
Heartless crew, narstie and pay as you go
Then I moved onto D double E
He got me ?
That's ooo-oo-ooo
But the boop boop that was me
Then I moved onto Dizzie Rascal
Fixed up look sharp
Had bars but I weren't book smart
Back to back I verse where the hooks are
So I took part when i could start
Get the memo
Then it was K.A.N.O
Boys love girls and the rhythm
Then G.H.E. that was me thats ghetto
I grew up in E16
I was chilling on the block with the 99p ice cream, back then it was actually 99p
And then I played football on the green
Me and the boys played out all day till mumsie called names from the window, then I was ready for some rice I was involved
Man you wouldn't believe
All the beef on the ends
And the goons in the benzs
Look at them wrong and you might catch two left hooks in your lenses
But like man like me
I tried to do the right thing
End of my yard
Man I was too busy writing bars
And man I went hard

[Chorus]
Yo, I'm sitting in E16 with my headphones on when my mum said dream
Cos I feel like you wanna waste your life and I just can't let that be
Oh na-na-na
Oh na-na-na
And I'm praying because somebody said that he's got plans for me
Don't waste my time come change life I want you please

[Verse 2]
I went school in RM6
Year seven I was round about
Eleven a class
Clowned about
Never had a lesson where I learned
They found me out
Then I tried to move to the chicks
One girly, two girly, three
Four girly, five girly me
But the girly never liked G
And that's cos I had a big gap in my teeth
Like please mind the gap and
Rewind the track selecta
When the crowed said Bo that's me
And I started to rap on the beats
And when i laced them bars on a blatant path, Kingdom Skank Through strong and blazed them charts
But brother I never had beef
I was just trying a ting
Admiring him
Cos i could have spent time in a bin
Instead he set me free and now I got them trying to sing
And I'm holding it down for the team
Us man doing it trust man
Us man doing it dust pad
Cleaned it up my brother good luck fam
And I'm Guvna B
And no-one, nothing gonna stop me
Trust me donny I'm doing it properly
God by my side real talk he spots me
And its a dream
As I walk though the valley of the shadow of death
I fear nothing rude boy not stressed im blessed
And now I passed the test
What about what's next

[Chorus]
Yo, I'm sitting in E16 with my headphones on when my mum said dream
Cos I feel like you wanna waste your life and I just can't let that be
Oh na-na-na
Oh na-na-na
And I'm praying because somebody said that he's got plans for me
Don't waste my time come change life I want you please
Oh yah-yah-yah
Oh yah-yah-yah

[Verse 3]
Ay look, they don't even know I got styley
When it comes to the thing I'm like wiley
Cos he flies the flag for grime
I fly the flag for Christ
You don't even want to try me
Boys say i should have gone mainstream
So i chilled and had a little day dream
Then i woke up and slapped myself
My God i'm already on the A-team
It's a hard time living in London
Got racism in abundance
Got gangs shooting at young-ens
And crooks stealing them funds
And I'm fed up man I can't leave it
If there's hope man we can't see it
There's a way out and that's genius
There's one way and that's Jesus

[Outro]
Oh na-na-ha
Oh na-na-na

Oh yah-yah-yah
Oh yah-yah-yah
Oh yah-yah-yah
Oh yah-yah-yah
