[Intro]
[whispered vocals] You didn’t believe, init
Now look
[ad-libs] (ayy) (what)
[Chorus]
Used to laugh at the squad, now we own the streets
Same ones chatting on blogs, now they don’t wanna speak
Got girls in the booth, got notes in the jeans
You doubted the dream
Now you’re watching the team on screens
[Verse 1 – Lead Lil Jonn]
I remember that bus ride, headphones, cold rain
Everyone clowning my tracks, said I’d never make change
Now I slide past in a tinted thing, can’t see my face
Same guys beg for a feature, I just leave ‘em on wait
You were writing your memes, I was writing my pain
Turned that into streams, turned streams into chains
You said I was done, I was just loading the clip
Now every show sold out, every line that I spit’s a hit (brap)
[Chorus]
[Verse 2 – Lil Squeak]
Lil Squeak too loud for you wastemen
Little voice, big smoke, I’m the play pen
You were talking that talk in the playground
Now your girl in the front row, face down (ayy)
You said I’m a joke, now I’m joking on jets
You refresh my page, I refresh my cheques
You post in your room, I post from resorts
You were never in the field, you were typing reports (nerd)
[Chorus]
[Verse 3 – Dangerous Dan]
You didn’t rate man, now you rate my accountant
Big back, big stack, every link like a mountain
You pray for my fall, I just pray for the balance
‘Cause the higher I climb, more I’m counting your malice
You said I’ll be stuck on the block
Now the block got stock in my shop
Every little hater got a share in my plans
‘Cause I rent out the flats that you flex in on ‘Gram (facts)
[Verse 4 – Lil Buster]
Lil Buster came last but I buss first
You was wishing on my flop, now your wish cursed
Every girl that you move to, she move to the gang
Take pics in my chain, throw my name in her slang (woo)
Used to queue for the rave, now we walk straight in
You still queue for the bus, still talk on the net, still fake king
You said I’d never get far from the bits
Now the bits call me boss when I visit the bricks (yeah)
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
All that shade that you threw, we just built us a roof
All that chat in the group, turned it into the proof
You were praying we lose, now you study the moves
You can hate from the curb
But the road know who really grooves (ayy)
[Chorus]
