[Verse 1:] Bruv I stepped out the yard, two quid short for the bus fare (mad ting) Arguin’ with the driver, like man don’t care (nah fam) Corner shop run, grabbed crisps and a Lucozade, Told the cashier man’s local, put it on trade (safe). See man flexin’ with Tesco bag, What’s inside? Meal deal or it’s lookin’ mad (what you got, cuz?). Chicken wrap, Walkers, Coke on the side — That’s gourmet livin’ in the borough tonight (trust me). Neighbour’s cat tried lookin’ at me funny, Swear on me life, man nearly pulled the bally (no joke). But I calmed down, still gangster with composure, Took selfie by the lamp post, man’s a soldier (certi). --- [Chorus:] It’s peak on the street when you’re beefin’ for bread, Arguin’ ‘bout change when you’re underfed. Block’s still hot though it’s tea I sip, Real G’s move silent — except when I trip. --- [Verse 2:] Council flat drama, lift stuck again, Man had to climb six floors just to see his friend (long day). JD tracksuit but it’s bootleg trim, Still pose on the ‘gram like I’m built for gym (say nuffin’). Phone got no data, Wi-Fi tapped, Still hollerin’ man like “add me on Snap” (yo add that). Big man talk but my mum call twice, Better run quick ‘fore she switch off lights (move quick). Uber Eats driver looked at me rude, I squared up bare face over garlic food (mad fam). Life on road’s no joke, it’s survival, But my ops are pigeons at the train arrival (brrr). --- [Chorus:] It’s peak on the street when you’re beefin’ for bread, Arguin’ ‘bout change when you’re underfed. Block’s still hot though it’s tea I sip, Real G’s move silent — except when I trip. --- [Ad-libs:] (“Mad ting!”) (“Fam trust me”) (“Nah safe safe”) (“Oi allow it bruv”) (“Gang gang over groceries”) (“Peak peak peak”)
