[Intro]
(Yo, 3lack, what the hell man?)
I don't say much, but I hear everything that is said
It don't go over my head
Success is the best revenge, no stress, I still ain't missed, huh
We could've gone 'round there, put it on social media, ruined his cred
Could've grabbed the habad put two in his head, but I let God do it instead
[Chorus]
They've done man wrong, where are they now?
Nowhere to be seen (Where they at?)
Thе power's strong, where am I now?
I been in thе charts for eighteen weeks
My bro stay knockin' man out, make man tap out
But he stay on his deen like Khabib
Bro, I know it's long time no see, but I'm here whenever you need
[Verse 1]
Sat in the bando watchin' Snap weren't good for my mental health
The things that I see on a daily basis be on the Daily Mail (For real)
Why the hell would I dwell on the past when I make profit off the pain I felt? (Pain)
How the fuck these guys gonna date these girls when they can't even pay for themselves? (How?)
Few of these females left me on read back then, but look now, I bet they regret it
They used to ask what I do for a living, I said that I work in a chemist (Trap)
I had no money, I weren't embarrassed
I'm doin' up road in my Toyota Yaris (Trap)
See squalay tryna cut through traffic
Rule number one, don't panic (Rule number one)
I know they hate that they can't ignore me, I'm all over London Town, huh
It's funny to think that I went OT when I was sixteen for a hundred pound
I get gyal easy, you know
True, LYM we don't run them down
I couldn't care less what they say on the blogs as long as my mumsy proud (Exactly that)
I keep on tellin' the young bulls "Grind, don't quit, cah it's all about timin'"
Bro's on a ped with a brick on him, and he's tryna blend in, so he's wearin' a hi-vis
Always tryna get the party tun't, that's how I got nicked at Wireless (Alright)
I told lil' bro when I stepped outta cells "It's calm, one day I'll headline it" (Uh)
[Chorus]
They've done man wrong, where are they now?
Nowhere to be seen (Where they at?)
The power's strong, where am I now?
I been in the charts for eighteen weeks
My bro stay knockin' man out, make man tap out
But he stay on his deen like Khabib
Bro, I know it's long time no see, but I'm here whenever you need
[Verse 2]
Put my life on the line to see bro elevate
Some times I feel like I'm way too generous
Step on the gas one time, accelerate (Uh-huh)
I need the same timepiece as Federer's
First flight that I took was a EasyJet, now it's DXB, I'm on Emirates
Live Your Movie, I say it with emphasis, but the flow too effortless
I'm wary, gotta stay on my pivot (Stay on it)
Remindin' myself it's business
Gotta stay out my feelings
Still gotta weigh up my options (Options)
I met a lot of these rappers (And?)
And we ain't got nothin' in common (Alright)
Tryna ship out the bud from Cali
Everyone got bud from Holland
The week that I dropped my tape Wild West
I painted my city orange
I see a lot of videos look like mine
I don't even mind, just pay me homage
Stuck in the trenches, skin go pale
I been in LA, now my skin look olive
I told little bro "Gotta stay in school"
I'm a bad example, I didn't go college
I listen a lot, but I don't speak much
I kept it brief, she think that I'm shy
She's down for the cause, I told her I'm done
She said she want more, I brang in my guy
I was dead broke, I had no hope
I sat and I thought 'bout endin' my life
I was down bad and they asked how I am
I got up like a man and I said "I'm alright"
I got on my grind, didn't make excuses
Stayed in the trap, got hot, got humid
The hood just full up of drug consumers, so we abuse it
If I don't do it, then someone gon' do it
Trusted the man and he done me like Judas
Bare opportunist, no opportunity
Trusting the government, but they all clueless
[Chorus]
They've done man wrong, where are they now?
Nowhere to be seen (Where they at?)
The power's strong, where am I now?
I been in the charts for eighteen weeks
My bro stay knockin' man out, make man tap out
But he stay on his deen like Khabib
Bro, I know it's long time no see, but I'm here whenever you need
[Outro: Khabib Nurmagomedov]
So, I wanna say Alhamdulillah
God give me everything (God give me everything)
Alhamdulillah
I know you guys, this, you don't like this
Alhamdulillah (Alhamdulillah)
