Lyrics

Yeah
Uhuh
Pricks
Stop admitting making mistakes and use ´em as excuses
It's all bullshit
Bitches
Yo
In these streets you gotta know your lane
Can't step out of bounds gotta play the game
It's a jungle out here and there's no room for weak
Stay on your hustle let your actions speak
Watch your back trust no one but your crew
Stay true to yourself that's the real breakthrough
Every corner's a test, every move calculated
Survival of the fittest so I stay dedicated
Know your place in this concrete maze
Keep your head held high for darkest days
Respect the code, that's the golden rule
In these streets, you gotta stay cool
From the block to the boulevard it's all the same
Gotta earn your stripes gotta play the game
Stay grounded, stay wise, that's the key
In this concrete jungle where only the strong are free
Where the dreams collide gotta hustle hard
Gotta swallow your pride
Know your place where the streets dictate
Stay in your lane or you'll meet your fate
In this concrete jungle, find your space
Navigate wisely at your own pace
Respect the rhythm heed the urban call
Know your place or you'll stumble and fall
Among the skyscrapers where the shadows loom
Every step calculated in this urban boom
Keep your head held high keep your eyes on the prize
In this jungle of steel where only the strong rise
From the streets to the alleys, every alleyway that I go
Gotta know where you stand every single day
No room for error
No room for doubt
In this concrete jungle
Gotta figure it out
BOW
Enough with the excuses
And the ignorance
It's time to take responsibility for our actions
To learn from our failures and strive for excellence in everything we do
So if you're content to wallow in your own ignorance
Then get the hell out of my fucking face
Cos I refuse to let your stupidity drag you down any longer
Uh
A pretty penny for my thoughts that's one in a million
A rapper's life isn't for me and I'm comfortable with it
Everyone's literally faking it until they're in it
ManLikeStretch I'll stay being me so fuck your opinions
Uh
I guess I take shit too seriously
I can't fathom the fact of man's delirious needs
The thought of being an idol doesn't clear it with me
Cos false prophets always have followers in spiritual beef
I can't make a million easy but I make sense
It's funny how I used to work the bins but they're the waste men
Nowadays man are talking about say less
But where I'm from
If you say anything you'll stay dead
But
I understand I need to make friends
I ain't got it but I understand it cah it takes them to have someone else around them to realise what makes them
ManLikeStretch I know all about having fake men and fake women around me
People claim they love me but they don't know nothing about me Vorsprung, Durch, Technik I'm Audi
Fuck away from me my brudda you're fine without me
I never needed man before what makes it different now G
Cos all I'm after is money
More money
More money
And a little more to crown me
I'm tryna look at my life and say I did it proudly
Yeah I've had my problems ain't be all bro allow me
I can't help the fact I cannot hang with fake ass bitches
Who love to chat up on the net and try and state our business
I'd rather send a link to your phone to reveal your address as soon as you open it up I'm all in I ain't half-inching
You can try me I'm no easy I'll do more
I'll drop a cash injection and flag your account for fraud
I never said I was nice but I'll hold it down for sure
You man are going Camber Sands I'm going out abroad
Yet again
Ay
Enough of the fucking talk
Ay
Everyone's wasting their fucking time
Life ain't about waiting for things to happen it's about making them happen
We're surrounded by excuses by people that are content to let life pass them by whilst they wallow in their fucking self pity
Well not me
That ain't me fam
Bun that shit
I'm tired of seeing shit wasted
(Other rant stuff from ManLikeStretch)
