Skepta - Big Lyrics

Skepta - Big (feat. Chipmunk)

They say “Skepta, you must get loads of girls”
the music’s picked up now
tell em like J2k, nahh, it’s all switched up now
she thinks that if she talks to me they’ll call
her a groupie behind her back now
so she stands far but close enough for her pictures
to have me in the background
I’m kinda used to it now
they say it’s all part and parcel
and if it’s this much for me
imagine whats it’s like for Curtis and Marshall
I wanna go hard
but my body keeps telling me to take it easy
so I sit here watching a DVD logo bounce around the TV
my life ended ages ago, now it’s all a dream
sitting here, thinking how this thing all started
from What D’Ya Mean, What D’Ya Mean
now that I’m getting that paper I heard a couple man want me dead
so I went out bought a Gucci hat and put money on my own head
I forever hear people talking like I don’t know about street
fake gangstas must think I spent my music money on chocolate and sweets
you’re looking for beef in London? Nah it’s not hard to find it
but I’m not scared of a gun, it’s all about the man behind it

[Chorus]
you wanna make it big
you think you like what you see
you wanna make it big
you saw me go from the bottom to the top
now you wanna be me

You wanna make it big
this famous life make people wanna wish they were 6 feet under
but not me
see when I made it big
I just wish that I knew what I know now when I was younger
truss

[Skepta - Verse 2]
Sometimes I think that I think too much
I start thinking about thinking
then I start to get paranoid
I think my windows need tinting
they say why work all this time
to get famous Joseph
just to wear sunglasses
cause you don’t wanna get noticed
once in a while I take em off
and I’m like “arrr, thats too bright”
because I sleep all day then I wake up at night
then I phone my girl, see if she wants to link
she said she got work in the morning
so what do I do, I go out for a drink
I spend all my time in clubs
it’s starting to feel like home
I don’t wanna sit in the VIP but sometimes I just wanna be left alone
I hate when I’m in a bad mood and I see all my supporters vibes’n
and I apologies to anyone I’ve taking a pic with when I weren’t smiling
they say “don’t you remember me I met you at Party In The Park”
babe, I can’t even where I parked my car in the car park
now she hates me and everytime she hears my song she’s changing the station
I swear the human brain weren’t designed to deal with all this information

[Chorus]
you still wanna make it big
you think you like what you see
you wanna make it big
you saw me go from the bottom to the top
now you wanna be me

You wanna make it big
this famous life can make some people wish they were 6 feet under
but not me
you see when I made it big
I just wish that I knew what I know now when I was younger
truss

[Bridge]
Listen tomorrow isn’t promised to us so
you have to enjoy today
cause the game is like a box of roses
cause when they’re done with the chocalate
the wrapper gets thrown away
I said the wrapper gets thrown away

[Chipmunk]
When you’re shooting for your targets
and its making you a target
you die before you live, I wish you warned me when I started
we’re going full hearted, R.I.P the half wits
cause now we’re 6 feet under the top spot f-ck a casket
bastards, don’t we make the lifestyle look appealing
independant names and chains
Skepta are we dreaming?
nobody could season, this track couldn’t reach him
cause now I’m on the otherside of that glass ceiling
the underdogs are off the leash
eh Joseph, pass the muzzles and the leads
the games full of demons, lets get this armhouse on
everyone wants handouts but I aint stretch armstrong
we’ve come so far as emcee’s
round of applause or bust it off just make it clap please
I’m so past just trying to be the favourite
you’re nobody until you got some haters
but you still wanna make it BIG!

Skepta - Mike Lowery Lyrics

Skepta - Mike Lowery

Where?
London.
London?
London.
London?
Yes, London! You know: fish, chips cup o’ tea, bad food, worse weather, Mary fucking Poppins, London.

Whoo Kid

[Skepta]
Too many wannabe badboys flexin’ like they’re so rowdy
Look a badboy straight in the face, tell him I’m a real badboy f-ck Mike Lowery
I don’t take disrespect neither do the guys that are standing around me
I do it how they didn’t wanna do it now they wanna try an do it but I’m telling them ‘low me
When I shut one eye and aim, I hit the target
Ben Cook now sitting at home now tryna figure out how he f-cked up his artist
If the game was a tray full of ice cubes then I’ll be the coldest and the hardest
The last MC that dissed me, blood on the ceiling, blood on the carpet
See I’ve got more heart than Tony Hawk but when I’m riding I ain’t ramping
I’m ready for all out war them man are lying on the floor camping
said keep it professional, Skepta forget the mad ting
I just say Candyman five times in the mirror but nothing ain’t happening
When I say that I stick it in the pussy’ole, cuz it ain’t no sexual innuendo
I been producing since Mario came on the Super Nintendo
So if a man wants to violate me I will make this beat at the fastest tempo
Kill another MC then go Spain and change my name to Lorenzo

[Sample]
What happened to him?
He got shot in the face Lincoln. I would have thought that was obvious.
What’d you do that for? You mistake him for a rabbit? What do you want me to do about it?
Sort it out.
I’m not a f-cking witch doctor.
But you are a bad boy yardie and bad boy yardies are supposed to know how to get rid of bodies.
I create the bodies. I don’t erase the bodies.

There ain’t no clowns round here when I find one go to the circus
F-ck a suspended sentence, I’ll re-offend if I ever get nervous
I say what I mean, mean what I say so when I say it I’m saying it on purpose
I tell a man that wants to rob me don’t bother coming if you ain’t got burners
I gave up smoking and then I got stressed out told KJ get the weed in
Lying in bed paranoid thoughts in my head, staring at the ceiling
100 nightmares in my brain clearly tryna stop me sleeping
1000 diamonds in my chain and its hurting a lot of mans feelings
You wanna know why they call me Guy Fawkes in the club just look at my table
Now they wanna know what Skepta’s worth they wish they knew my appraisal
Black carbon fibre on the roof of the white Audi I’m so interracial
I start with a little bit of foreplay, have sex then finish off with a facial
When it comes to the bedroom ladies better know I’m so X-rated
I met her on Monday made love on the same day ‘cause I ain’t Craig David
Big high grade spliff, Courvoursier n-gga I’m so wasted
I can’t drive like this but it’s okay because Jamie’s driving a spaceship
Boy Better Know

Skepta (Ft. N-Dubz) - So Alive Lyrics

Skepta (Ft. N-Dubz) - So Alive

Yeah Skepta, Boy Better Know, N-Dubz
I never have a dream when I go to sleep at night
my dream begins when I walk outside
now I’m on stage and I feel like I’m looking through Michael Jacksons eyes
stories, rumours and accusations so I gotta stay self conscious of my hand gestures before they call me a Mason or say that I’m working with satan
but even a blind man could see, I would never sell my soul for the P
when you’re looking at Skepta, you’re looking at grime so the only thing I gotta stay true to is me
I don’t need a helping hand, stand up tall, I’m my own man
find me on the tallest building in the country singing as loud as I can

I-I feel so alive, so alive
(S-K-E-P-T-A)
Got my two feet on the ground
but it feels like I’m in the sky
it’s time to enjoy the sun cause we made it through the rain
put your hands up in the sky like you’re tryna touch a plane
I feel so alive, so alive

(Boy Better Know-oh-oh, yeah)

Shit what have I done
raa, everyone singing along to my bars
went triple platinum, see me I’m trying to do what Elvis done
and the stage is way too big for me
Labels never thought this guy from the ghetto could make all these girls sing for me
nana, nana, nana, niiiiii
I got a big NANA chain hanging down to my navel
tell the bartender “take a fat bottle of champagne to Polydor’s table”
big men acting like school kids
say there gonna run up on me with a full clip
so I pull down the two flaps on my cap cause I didn’t want to hear that bullshit

I-I feel so alive, so alive
(D-A-Double P-to-the-Z)
Got my two feet on the ground
but it feels like I’m in the sky
it’s time to enjoy the sun cause we made it through the rain
put your hands up in the sky like you’re tryna touch a plane
I feel so alive, so alive

It’s time to get dark
Blacker than Cilla
Fazer aka 6 figure n-gga
man said I got robbed for my chain
until I put a picture on Skepta’s twitter
when I go to the Gucci store I dress rags
security think that I aint gonna buy shit
then I pull out my card, swipe it, bowl out with 20 bags
If i like them, cop them, f-ck the hater, can’t stop them
MC’s wanna diss N-Dubz but they can’t get a top twenty let alone a top ten
so if it weren’t for the fans I woulda had a haters blood on my hands
I’mma mastermind behind the keyboard so I’mma carry on stacking up these grands

Skepta feat. Preeya Kalidas - Cross My Heart Lyrics

Cross My Heart by Skepta feat. Preeya Kalidas

[Preeya Kalidas - Chorus]
Strobe Lights flashing in my eyes
living for this moment and now I realise
I’ll never tell a lie lie lie
I’ll never let em in I leave em on the outside
(Boy Better know)
I promise you, I promise you, yeah
(The truth)
I promise you I promise you, yeah
(Skepta)
Cross my heart until the day I die

[Skepta Verse 1]
I’ve been around the World and back
screaming more money more paper
been doing it major
even Walkers aint go this much flavour
they say I’m superbad like Mclovin
now man are calling me family all of a sudden
and I’m like mum how come you never told me that I had all these cousins
this corner I’m standing in never felt claustrophobic when I came in 10 minutes ago
now my backs against the wall
it’s a good job I’m tall
so I can always see clear
even with all the smoke in the air
I know some are standing here cause of loving fame
but some of them are here out of fear

[Chorus]

[Skepta Verse 2]
It’s time to go straight back to the top with them
they tried to stop me but I’m doing it again
and all my real friends know Ima still keep it 10 multiplied by 10
forgive me if I’ve been acting a little strange
I never knew that one song could make my whole life change
last week I boarded six planes
but I can’t complain this is the moment I’ve been waiting for
picked myself off the floor and now I get a warm welcome when I walked in the door
I’m with Boy Better Know let em all in
there’s a flip side to all things
so before you sign yourself up to the high life
make sure you read the small print
listen, please
listen to me when I’m talking
the guy you’re looking at right now is the guy I was this morning
I never had a pen but I made a mark
even when I top the chart I’ll be the same guy that I was at the start
I hope to die I cross my heart

[Chorus]

Skepta - Rescue Me lyrics

Skepta - Rescue Me

Well i been breaking it down for you baby,
Been running around, I cant see no love for me,
Somebody rescue me

Im the king of the town Mr crazy,
creating the sound, there's still no love for me,
somebody rescue me,
Just rescue me,
Rescue me,
Rescue me

Skepta
They call me S-K-E-P-T-A,
Before i start i just wanna say,
Boy Better Know all day,
I got bumble bee's tryin to figure out how i got this buzz,
All i want is a kiss and a hug but somebody told specsavers i still cant see no love,
Days, month, years, blood, sweat, tears,
I walk the street of london facing my fears,
And everydays like truth or dare,
So spin that bottle,
Cus if it lands on me, imma stay true to my word,
I dont want anymore respect than i deserve

Well i been breaking it down for you baby,
Been running around i cant see no love for me,
somebody rescue me

Im the king of the town Mr crazy
creating the sound, theres still no love for me,
Somebody rescue me,
Just rescue me,
Rescue me,
Rescue me

Skepta
Just, no ceiling, no doors, i walk all over the beat,
No floors i tell a hater i love you loads,
Tell a supporter how i love you more,
And they say ive changed, I say im making a change,
I left the road making a brand new lane,

Still i get no thank you, no round of applause,
So i keep on driving, im upset but i keep on smiling,
And when i get knocked down i get back on my two feet and i keep on fighting,
I sacrifice still privacy so i can live my dream what a irony,
Cus now my reality is far from the place i would like to be,

Well i been breaking it down for you baby,
Been running around i cant see no love for me
somebody rescue me

Im the king of the town Mr crazy
creating the sound
theres still no love for me
somebody rescue me
Just rescue me
