Ah, check

Born and raised on the British Islands

Still a sucker for the taste of a different diet

Still the Henny with the chase when we link on night outs

Night owls, city people and we keep an eye out (eye out!)

Born and raised on that CeCe Winans

We would listen till my daddy turned the TV silent

We would listen never missing out on realignment

With the soul music, it's the soul we abide in (abide in!)

Riding in the city of sirens (sirens!)

Grinding we get busy applying ('plying!)

Minding my own bi'ness, abiding by Him

Reading hymns and hoping they hiring (hiring!)

Gliding through the gritty assignments ('signments)

Blinding is the light we arrived in ('rived in)

Surviving but I'm tryna be thriving

I've been near the edge now it's time that I dive in (dive in!)

It's like, yeah

Run the beat (run the beat)

Coming from the soul when I speak (when I speak)

Sticking to the process

Hoping that I progress

Tell 'em put this song up on repeat (tell 'em put this song up on repeat)

Ah, check

Run the beat (run the beat)

Coming from the soul when I speak (when I speak)

Sticking to the process

Hoping that I progress

Tell 'em put this song up on repeat (put this song up on repeat)

Born and raised on the British Islands

Every Sunday at the church

We wore suit and tie then

Every Sunday after church

We would have to drive in

Peckham High Street market

We would slip and slide in (slide in)

Born and raised didn't seek asylum

But I knew a couple who had had a few beside them

Grew beside them

So I knew the truth behind them

Had a hard start

But hope was on their horizons

Like

Riding in the city of sirens (sirens!)

Grinding we get busy applying ('plying!)

Minding my own business, abiding by Him

Reading hymns

And hoping they hiring (hiring!)

Gliding through the gritty assignments ('signments)

Blinding is the light we arrived in ('rived in)

Surviving but I'm tryna be thriving

I've been near the edge

Now it's time that I dive in (dive in!)

It's like, yeah

Run the beat (run the beat)

Coming from the soul when I speak (when I speak)

Sticking to the process

Hoping that I progress

Tell 'em put this song up on repeat (tell 'em put this song up on repeat)

Ah, check

Run the beat (run the beat)

Coming from the soul when I speak (when I speak)

Sticking to the process

Hoping that I progress

Tell 'em put this song up on repeat (put this song up on repeat)

Yeah, run the beat (run the beat)

Coming from the soul when I speak (when I speak)

Sticking to the process

Hoping that I progress

Tell 'em put this song up on repeat (tell 'em put this song up on repeat)

Ah, check

Run the beat (run the beat)

Coming from the soul when I speak (when I speak)
