Tonalidad: Bb major
Verse 1
G
So you're caught up in this music thing,
and you think you're
gonna be a success.
Well, some of you will,
and some of you won't.
Some of you'll make a go of it,
and some of you won't have done
too bad.
The way it looks to me,
is like this geezer's onto something
good here.
So keep it up,
and let's see where it takes ya, boy.
Let's see where it takes ya.
Fuck off. you know everything
is everything
and everything's gonna be all right
you know you know what though
yeah no man is an island life is in the beach
no clouds with silver linings
and no streets paved with gold
no great expectations
no inherited wealth
no businesses owned by my dastardly line done
too bad though i collide with my demons
them like high -speed trains
on single lanes
Enjoy this while it lasts,
cause it can bring you pain
If you're into fame, fast life, champagne
Fast women who blow fortunes on cocaine,
you're in the wrong game
I used to claim,
benefits every fortnight
Do some part time cashing and chores,
for a couple scores in stores
Where the managers were always white
The customers were always right,
and employees always fight
In spite of the madness,
man still had some jokes
Checking girls in my tight
black strides
and long coats, lean shoes
Cheap dicky bow ties,
name badges and paper hats
To make man favour some
major press but
That's all in the past tense now,
I'm past that
I'm on the fast track to success
with dark rap since
Me and my boy that now owns
the real McCoy said
Frick the glitzy ripsy shit
and the Savoy let's go all out
But then we had the fallout on the minor
So he became a proprietor,
I became a rhymer
Now I'm accomplishing,
he ain't done too bad
I sometimes reminisce
and wonder what it may be and perhaps
You know what though,
I never had no big record deal
Still no matter what I feel, I ain't done
I never had no billboard poster
or personal chauffeur on the road
You know what though?
I ain't done too bad
I've had a few singles,
one LP, on the streets,
one classic unreleased
I ain't done too
You know what though?
I get love where it counts,
get respect where it counts
Done shows X amount,
I ain't done too bad
I've got a world of material
in a material world
Set to materialise,
appearing before you realise
I'm out of this world,
not on top, run of the mill
I'm one in a mill,
still coming strong with a skill
Nail by mouth, no silver spoon,
I never had my own room
Till the 17th of June,
when I turned 17 I moved out
Thought I was the boom,
the golden child,
shining star, sun and the moon
As soon as I broke back down to earth,
some fool called me a coon
Started making monkey noises,
imitating baboons
I had to defend it,
so man got brushed like a broom
Put some lumps on his face
like cheap imitation perfume
Moved from egg busting to hewm,
then from hewm to healing
Then to a south east London flat
with no holes in the ceilings
I had a second -hand mattress,
second -hand TV set,
second -hand tape deck
that chewed up enough cassettes
Yep, life these days is mental,
total strangers walking up
to compliment you,
ladies and gentlemen too
I ain't done too bad for a local lad,
who started spitting properly
after listening to Money Man
Ever since the number man
rinsed the demos on the show,
it's been on top,
it seems longer than four years ago
When I first came with that raggo,
relentless flow,
first UK hip -hop act to pick up a mobo
First to release tracks back
to back with video
First to distress radio and go in a city go
One of the first to rock the carnival,
two years in a row
And I've got his dashing panties
on stage
like I'm Tom Jones
You know what though,
I never had no big record deal
Still no matter what I feel,
I ain't done too bad
I never had no billboard poster
or personal chauffeur on the road
You know what though,
I ain't done too bad
I've had a few singles,
one LP, on the streets
One classic unreleased, I ain't done too
You know though,
I get love where it counts
Get respect where it counts done
Show's X I'm out, I ain't done too bad
I'm a struggling man like Jimmy Cliff
Most see me and wanna give me spliff
So put me on their guest list
It's bare love I get
Nuff brothers always touch fist
Chris sisters wanna kiss
And wish me nuff success
But there's always a couple
red eyed idiots
Don't wanna diss
On the battling tip
Talking the Aggie man shit
The bad man is actively
working overtime
Can't get a proper heart
I'm back there looking to grind
I know from outside looking in
You probably think we're living lovely
Seeing me and Shaunie T on Flavor
Me, just grudge me
Plus your girl starting to tell you
about how she loves me
And she ain't feeling your fuckness,
cause you're utterly butterly
To tell the truth,
you're an un -good looking youth
But that's irrelevant,
even if your head looks like
an elephant's rear end
And appearance is only skin deep
Though I can see your nasty
mashed mouth
when you're skinty
So why bring beef to a veggie, huh?
Why you always edgy, huh?
Why you acting like that
20 pence drink, beggy beggy, huh?
Why is it every time I see you,
you're on some petty immature long take
Like Pizza Hut's Tagliatelle
Just let it rest, dread, kill it dead
Man you couldn't present
me with Trouble Star
Your name in Big Ted, why you track it in?
Is your man fighting my whip bread?
Or you wanna be the next
Notorious
Cause Big's dead
You know what though,
I never had no big record deal
Still no matter what I feel
I ain't done too bad
I never had no billboard poster or
Personal chauffeur on the road
You know what though,
I ain't done too bad
I've had a few singles, one LP
On the streets, one classic unreleased
I ain't done too bad
You know what though,
I get love where it counts
Get respect where it counts done,
shows X amount
I ain't done too bad
So far so bad, we ain't done too bad
All the man's out of the rut
and they ain't done too bad
Shawnee T and me this,
he ain't done too bad
G
Chubby Kids, Big Ted,
you ain't done too bad
MC Tite, Shorty Bliss,
they ain't done too bad
G
All the man out of the vill,
ain't done too bad
Yeah, you know, you know, ha
G
You know what though?
We ain't done too bad, yeah
