INTRO/CHORUS x 2
FUNDA
I want you to leave (leave),
I want you to go (go),
But you keep telling me the streets are all you know (know),
I just want a better life,
but you won’t breakaway.
VERSE 1
TINCHY
It’s a standard ting that I keep it ghetto,
Roads aint nothing like calm or mellow,
too much p’s to be got,
so I get dough,
man hold whips in the bits like lego,
some put stones in their chains all yellow,
me I get low in a blacked out Renault with,
Soldier,
Dirt Danger and Lee Wello,
p’s involved and man are like hello,
hi,
come off the roads they’re cold,
so I do music,
I’m hotting up shows,
if not back to square one that’s right,
start from scratch we blotting up o’s,
roads keep calling me back but I’m not involved,
then I hear dough then I’m right involved,
I caught up in a cycle it’s like the roads aint letting go.
CHORUS x 2
FUNDA
I want you to leave (leave),
I want you to go (go),
But you keep telling me the streets are all you know (know),
I just want a better life,
but you won’t breakaway.
VERSE 2
TINCHY
Yeah the golden boy in the games what they call me,
you’re a household names what they tell me,
through this game I be flying out stage shows abroad with Wiley,
Skepta and Jamie,
fans show love when I bring out my CD,
girls get hyped when they see me on tv,
cos they know I’m the man like beanie,
when I come through it’s ALL fresh Armani,
but I keep getting sidetracked by the street life,
theres more to the roads than street lights,
shottas,
jackmove guys in the corner,
that’s why some WALK street with a bora (blanked out),
might see two or three gash (blanked out) in the corner,
might see two or three goons in the corner,
if the boy dem roll up,
give your stash to the gash (blanked out),
divert from the corner,
that’s why I’m try’na get away from a hype ting,
settle down with a girl me I got a life ting,
nothin aint comfy cosy in the hood fam,
so I try and get paid for the mic ting,
but theres something about these roads,
too much p’s to be got,
so I get dough,
still try’na get legal dough,
but we hustle grind that’s the life IN BOW.
CHORUS x 2
FUNDA
I want you to leave (leave),
I want you to go (go),
But you keep telling me the streets are all you know (know),
I just want a better life,
but you won’t breakaway.
VERSE 3 (not in the video)
TINCHY
Yeah,
and I move on the roadside g and I get that dough like the roadside geez,
let it grow I aint spending the p’s on a hustle grind still about them p’s,
06 Merc still I want them keys but I aint gonna get that keys for the drop top,
not too quick if I just mc so I deal a bit of dirt for the p’s,
at the same time look I aint got time for all these guys to be pulling out 9’s,
too many egos clash on the roads I aint got time I’m ninja like ghost,
try and get low on the streets and I aint rollin with heat I want legal dough so I spray flows on the beat,
but I still get caught up in shit (blanked out) on the road.
CHORUS x 2 (not in the video)
FUNDA
I want you to leave (leave),
I want you to go (go),
But you keep telling me the streets are all you know (know),
I just want a better life,
but you won’t breakaway.

Yea, yea...
My life is deep, everyday's like constant greif
And all I wanna do is breathe, so I choose to rely on me
I'll never let me..
My life is deep, everyday's like constant greif
And all I wanna do is breathe, so I choose to rely on me
I'll never let me down..down, down, down, down
I'll never let me down
So I choose to rely on me, I'll never let me..
My life is deep, everyday's like constant greif
And all I wanna do is breathe, so I choose to rely on me, yea
Look, I spit the truth in the booth, no lie
so believe when I say that I've cried some nights
All on my own in my room and I'm thinking
why did I choose this life it's deep
where did it all go wrong, please tell me
I remember, and it feels like just the other day when my life was peaceful
Sitting on a wall in Stroudy
Now a few years later, I'm a little bit older, wised up, that much stronger
My mum thinks that I'm wasting time, I'm folding man, I cant handle the pressure
And I've been a star from school, so I've gotta maintain the cool
If not then I get labeled a wasteman, somebody help me son I'm gunna fall
Its a normal ting I find myself in the mixup
And its all 'cause I touch mic's, all 'cause they call me Stryde or Stryder
All 'cause I came up with Ruffsquad, Rascal and Tiger
If I roll to a next endz, I'm bound to run into a next breh
'Cause I'm hype hype this year, but they aint gunna move me
Not while I'm here, not this year
I'm not letting them take the piss here, I'm tryin to blow like Wretch here
But man are still tryin to hold me back like wait there
Man get busy like roach on a biscuit
Look, all this hype 'cause I MC and all I wanna do is make mad p
Look, is this really worth it, this life is far from perfect
Pain inside, but I'm cool on the surface, 'cause the click aint tight no more
Some friends cant look me in the eye no more
Its hurting but I dont cry no more
I put my boy on my mix cd and all he could say is "My name aint on it"
Rar, thats the thanks I get, mind and next time we'll see who's on it
Even my boys think I'm mashing with p's so I'm not even shocked by the war on the streets
And they think that Stryder's nice and the jack move goons keep plotting on me
Little did they know that my dough aint there yet
I'm nice with the flow but I'm not quite there yet
That's why I'm a +Star In The Hood+ 'cause they think I've burst when I aint even blown yet
Aint it aint even ending there these random questions I'm facing bare
Like "Why didn't Rascal sign you? Why not Ruffsquad, Why Newham Generals?"
I'm like, "Business is business, plus he dont owe me nuttin"
All these questions, I aint got answers, what do I look like his brain or something?
Stop asking if its all cool, 'cause all I can do is speak from my side
And its still all love round East side, most of the mandem are still on your side
It was only a few years back, they had the strongest team its a fact
Now look I've done my first album, no features from Rascal or Wiley, it's fucked..
Yea, its real talk man, realness man, like..
I had to say what I had to say man..
Get me man, it's all love, still..
Yea, I'm signing out, I'm out, I'm out, I'm out, I'm out..
Yea, yea..
My life is deep, everyday's like constant greif
And all I wanna do is breathe, so I choose to rely on me
I'll never let me..
My life is deep, everyday's like constant greif
And all I wanna do is breathe, so I choose to rely on me
I'll never let me down..down, down, down, down
I'll never let me down
So I choose to rely on me, I'll never let me..
My life is deep, everyday's like constant greif
And all I wanna do is breathe, so I choose to rely on me
I'll never let me down
I'll never let me down
I'll never let me down
