On the Rise (Explicit)歌词完整版
Mind the gap between the train
and the platform.
Young G on a rise, Kensal
Kensal, Kensal, Rise, Kensal
Young G on a rise, Kensal
You dun know already, the journey
Kensal, Kensal,
Young G on Kensal Rise,
before the rollie, before the Benz,
before 24,
and before THEM, I was coming out
of Brent,
I am really really from the Endz, so
much so I really know Dynamic M
and most of the gangsters dem, I'm
so North West 10, can't forget Tubby
T, God bless the dead, mi nuh wan
nuh bling bling, mi nuh wan no pinky
ring just gimme di microphone, I
been a soundboy since then, these
are tales from the hood, keeping it
real, I spent most of my teens shook,
coulda got jook for a look, for a look,
cah man'll change on you quicker
than a Shang Tsung, man'll blaze
on you, badda bing badda boom,
so boom, these are tales from the
hood, I know a lot a tings but I gotta
keep shtum, I heard a lot a tings I
could fill a whole book, got secrets
I gotta keep 'til I'm 6 foot, a far
cry from Hollywood, used to drive
by Cricklewood, took a right at the
lights, Kilburn Station,
Jubilee Line, going to Kensal Rise
but decided to stop at a friend of
mines, them times she lived on Dyne,
she approached me with tears in her
eyes, she told me that so and so died
and I hugged her as she cried, but I
felt nuttem inside cos he tried to rob
me twice, doing something snakey's
why he probably lost his life, bruddas
used to try it doing fuckries outta
spite, man know I'm a star but didn't
wanna let me shine, when the place
you're from is dark they wanna see
you dim your light, they've pulled
guns on me, knives on me, lucky I'm
alive, man been hating on me since
1999, when really they rated me I
did sutten they admired, saw what
I was doing but they didn't have
the confidence to try it, could've
done it if they tried but they didn't
have the drive, crabs in barrel and
they don't wanna see you thrive,
badmind watching from the sides,
praying for your downfall plotting on
your demise, then wanna start rap
careers at 35?
Rolls eyes, those are the kinds of
guys I despise, they were fans in
disguise, but now man's in the sky,
they congratulate me, they had to
respect the grind, clean energy you
know the vibes, shouts to Mike, never
got blinded by the lights, from the
streets up to dizzy new heights, I am
from a time, before gangsters posed
with toilet paper for likes before...
Young G on a Rise
One time was out the manor with
******, one or two serious guys
but man was moving light, looking
back in hindsight man weren't
moving right, loads of hangers on
who couldn't back if they tried, up
there we bucked up on the other
side but true I knew a few kept it
cool and was polite but could see it
was going left cah something wasn't
right, at the time the ting coulda
been squashed, no one had died, too
much pride, my bredrin gotta offered
a 1on1 but declined could tell by his
body language he was shook to fight,
had everybody looking at him with
a side eye, he was tryna save face
but that's how you lose stripes, he
jumped man a couple weeks prior in
a 1on1 which is suttem he shouldn't
of done, that's not how tings run, you
know the rules dem iyah, but that's
a serious war I don't wanna stoke
the fire, Lord strike me down if I'm
a liar, I'm not involved but from the
zones and the road it's how it goes,
it's never Kumbaya, shit can still
transpire, so vigilance required 'til
the day man expire, if not on God,
the consequences could be dire, if
not on job face is on a poster or a
flyer, them thingys go pop pop turn
my Mum into a crier, watch even the
little n*****, you heard David and
Goliath you saw Omar in The Wire,
that's how you get wheeled away,
punctures in your body via shots
through attire, tread lighter, small
circle, clique tighter, show me the
money like Cuba in Jerry Maguire.
Another time was at a party in the
manor, bevvy in my hand I don't
