For a Minute (feat. KarimThaPeasant)

Chicken shops with two pound tops

We're roaming but can't get enough

Eating sunshine every day

Accustomed to our South East way

Cruising in the rainy streets

Smoking cigarettes like sweets

Creamy legs in London air

Our hands are up but we still care

The blades don't turn

But you see them from miles and miles

And you learn

That over here, we hide our grief behind smiles

And we run around and laugh 'cause that's our style

Oh, we know

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

Girls can dream

Still no

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute, yeah

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

Tommy, Shaq, Nathan and Mo

Mum, why ain't my brother home?

Cradled by a dozen flowers

The streets just took another child

Ain't it strange that my home

Had closed before it ever opened, don't you know

That over here, we hide our grief behind smiles

And we run around and laugh 'cause that's our style

Oh, we know

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

Girls can dream

Still no

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute, yeah

There's pain outside, there's pain in the art

No time for the worst in me

Remember finding the email

From the penitentiary that locked up Tariq

They don't have control on us

No, they don't have control on we

They can steal all of our space

But if we ain't there, then it's cheap

Oh, we know

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

Girls can dream

Still no

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute
