[Verse 1: Avelino]
I don't want no drama
They don't want no drama
Motherfucker son who
I ain't had no father
I said I'mma get grands
On my mama's mama
Cup of coffee, getting Starbucks
Fuck niggas, they're just starstruck
You're the one who told me
You're the one dude showed me
Niggas talk way too much
Their bitches walk too slowly
I wheel up that bloodclart
Then clart blood man stunt hard
"What's happening?" turned to WhatsApp-ing
It's no love but love hearts

[Hook: Avelino]
We're just raising the roof
Raising the bar, the bar
Let me pay for the Q
Until I get signed, you ain't getting consigned
Nigga, pay for the Q
It ain't safe in the booth
Avelino, you're the biggest danger to you
I'm from the school of hard knocks
You never came to the school

(Assassin on the microphone)

[Verse 2: Assassin]
Yo, it's [?], the king son from Kingston
When the prince come, a man see mi where you been come
Linkup with the badbwoy dem from London
That's a United Kingdom
Ting move back and forth like a swing song
And no doubt the rain come
Feel you bad till you par with Michael Jackson
But listen Bubbles you don't wanna trouble with a King Kong
Carry a big gun
Boom, buss loud like a big bomb
Uh, explode like a big bomb
Live pon di stage like a big song
Yo, hit song after hit song
Waitress, bring another drinks come
Or bring some medicine
Because we sicker than a million sing-song
You don't want no drama
You don't want no drama
You don't want no drama
You'll be dead before the sun up, tell dem
You don't want no drama
You don't want no drama
You don't want no drama
Rudeboy, don't trust informers, cause

[Hook: Avelino]
We're just raising the roof
Raising the bar, the bar
Let me pay for the Q
Until I get signed, you ain't getting consigned
Nigga, pay for the Q
It ain't safe in the booth
Assassin, you're the biggest danger to you
I'm from the school of hard knocks
You never came to the school

[Verse 3: Avelino]
I never had a handout, even when I had my hand out
Ironic how I can be a helping hand now
Flicking through my A to Z, I've got this mapped out
Fuck a plan B, plan A ain't even planned out, oh
I just wanna see Roley with a Roley
I ain't playing games, while you take this for roly-poly
There's a new me, so if you knew me then you don't know me
They say people change, my people changing into Stoneys
You don't want no drama, nigga
What goes around knows karma, nigga
Yeah
I came to see them conquer
My ancestors, I've seen them conquer
I'm someone's ancestor, I'll see them conquer
Get your whole team up, never leap your roster
I feel like a rasta cuh they dreading mi hair
My nigga, '016, that's a legendary year
Been on memory lane, there's no memories here
Cause I go back to the future, no, you've never been there
And no, I've never been scared
Until I stepped fear in the face
Lost niggas had tears on my faith
So it's sink or swim
I'm Michael Phelps, gone clear, it's erased
