  • Hold on, hold on, hold on (it's Tekky) (WhyJay)
    Ready for war, they wanna battle

    If they wanna battle, I'm ready for war (woo)
    I come from the struggle and love all the trouble, I've been here before
    I'm done and I'm sick of the talk, with their smiling faces, not anymore (woo)
    Yeah, kick in the door (kick in the door)
    Been in the gutter, I come from the mud, I can give you a tour
    If they wanna battle, I'm ready for war (I'm ready for war)
    I come from the struggle and love all the trouble, I've been here before (yeah)
    I'm done and I'm sick of the talk, with their smilin' faces, not anymore
    Yeah, kick in the door (woop, woop) (kick in the door)
    Been in the gutter, I come from the mud, I can give you a tour

    If they wanna battle, I'm lettin' it loose
    I've been the bigger man, they didn't give a damn
    And I don't wanna call a truce (no way)
    And they don't wanna hear the truth
    They think it was luck that got me in the booth (ha)
    'Cause I'm up, and I'm eatin' my fruits
    And they didn't see the seeds or the bleedin'
    Non-believin', underachievin'
    See, I remember this time, I was flat on my arse
    Mum lost the yard and I'm tryna graft
    Studio was my time apart
    I'd go bake off back at Muli's yard
    Schemin' how we'd get our mulas up (uh)
    Stupidness for a few quid more
    Thank God everyday that music bussed
    Think I ain't ready? You stupid cunt

    If they wanna battle, I'm ready for war (woo)
    I come from the struggle and love all the trouble, I've been here before (been here)
    I'm done and I'm sick of the talk, with their smilin' faces, not anymore (woo)
    Yeah, kick in the door (kick in the door)
    Been in the gutter, I come from the mud, I can give you a tour
    If they wanna battle, I'm ready for war
    I come from the struggle and love all the trouble, I've been here before (yeah)
    I'm done and I'm sick of the talk, with their smiling faces, not anymore
    Yeah, kick in the door (woop, woop) (kick in the door)
    Been in the gutter, I come from the mud, I can give you a tour

    Yo, alright, I got sixteen, fifteen left
    Armz Korleone when I lift these reps (whoosh)
    Hard to moan when you live this blessed
    Bro don't park the chrome, he just rips and press (bah, bah)
    Swipe and go, I spend quids on creps
    Multiply my dough when I flip this cheque
    All I write 'bout's tits and sex
    I'm surprised I ain't had no pickneys yet (ah)
    Nah, I lied, these man are my yutes
    Spit a line and fire up man in the booth
    Bring the ride out, stand on the roof
    Man tried but you just can't battle the truth (no way)
    So my guys still savage a yute
    It's not a music vid, they ain't plannin' a shoot (yeah)
    If it happens, it happens, it's true, but- (woah)

    If they wanna battle, I'm ready for war (woo)
    I come from the struggle and love all the trouble, I've been here before (been here)
    I'm done and I'm sick of the talk, with their smilin' faces, not anymore (woo)
    Yeah, kick in the door (kick in the door)
    Been in the gutter, I come from the mud, I can give you a tour
    If they wanna battle, I'm ready for war
    I come from the struggle and love all the trouble, I've been here before (yeah)
    I'm done and I'm sick of the talk, with their smiling faces, not anymore
    Yeah, kick in the door (woop, woop) (kick in the door)
    Been in the gutter, I come from the mud, I can give you a tour
