[Intro]
Look

[Chorus]
Twenty-to-one
Look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on a ride with the guys, and we're lookin' for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, drivin' a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call, I'm gettin' him touched
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah

[Verse 1]
Made in the street
My nigga nearly got done for an AM
He went on the run, he was stayin' with me
I told my girl that we can't be together
She's cryin', that's somethin' I hated to see
Really I struggled to stay on my feet
I'm lookin' for her in the lady I meet
I got two letters that you're gonna see
If you're someone that wanted a way in the beef
A and a E, playin' with me
We send him up to his maker to meet
Where I stay on the street (Stay on the street)
There's no love (No love), there's no love (No love)

[Chorus]
Twenty-to-one
Look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on a ride with the guys, and we're lookin' for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, drivin' a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call, I'm gettin' him touched
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah
Twenty-to-one
Look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on a ride with the guys, and we're lookin' for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, drivin' a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call, I'm gettin' him touched
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah

[Verse 2]
Man try stick me two months back
Hands on the wheel, so the car don't crash
Run up on me, there's a price to pay
Darg, I ain't takin' card or cash
I really did it with class, no maths
Mind don't matter when heart don't match
A good girl like Pokémon
Easy to see, but hard to catch
I'm so real that it's hard to cap
I've been low, so it's hard to brag
I've been hurt, so it's hard to love
Mum needs it, so it's hard to have
Any ride out, I'm good to go
Bro's got my back, it's good to know
If she a nine, that's good to see
If she a ten, she's good to roll
Man clout chase, it's tough to watch
Bad friends, it's tough to drop
'Nuff man tried buy respect
That don't work, 'cause it's tough to cop
Some times it's tough to think
No liver left, it's tough to drink
Through the noise, it's tough to hear
Through the pressure, it's tough to live
Through the wire and through the wall
Through the sea and through the earth
Through the fire and through the war
Through the death and through the birth
Through the pleasure and through the pain
Through the drought and through the rain
Through the dark and through the day
Through the love and through the hate

[Chorus]
Twenty-to-one
Look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on a ride with the guys, and we're lookin' for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, drivin' a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call, I'm gettin' him touched
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah
Twenty-to-one
Look at the time, it's twenty-to-one
I'm on a ride with the guys, and we're lookin' for him
If we catch him it's twenty to one
Feds behind me, drivin' a beamer
Odds on my freedom are twenty-to-one
I make a call, I'm gettin' him touched
Twenty-to-one, twenty-to-one, yeah-yeah

Dave

Representing Streatham, South London is mononymous rapper David Orobosa Omoregie (b. 5 June 1998), professionally known as Dave or Santan Dave. Impressing hugely on his Bl@ckbox debut back in May 2015, Dave carried the momentum over to clock up hits with tracks such as “JKYL+HYD,” “Thiago Silva,” and his Fire In The Booth freestyle.

Being very hands-on with his art, Dave also executively produces all of his own music, often under the name SANTAN. He is known to be a frequent collaborator with British composer and producer Fraser T. Smith as well as close friends Tyrell 169 and Kyle Evans. From young, Dave has been a classically trained pianist and has used his love for movie soundtracks to influence his beats. He cites German score producer Hans Zimmer as one of his biggest inspirations and idols.

A rapper’s rapper, Dave’s plaintive rhymes strike many chords, both beautifully righteous and jaw-droppingly raw. Diverse in his writing choice, Dave’s wordplay and flow could see him switch from conscious and emotional storytelling about his life and the world around him to party bangers about his ever-growing fame and fortune, with precision and finesse.
