Case Closed

So I'm born and raised in London

Grew up in the East End

I'm really English

Nothing like them other guys that pretend

I love this country

Work and pay my taxes here

I'm a builder

My dad was too

When I was sixteen he chucked me in at the deep end

I went football on the weekends

And had some drinks after that

'Bout half the lads had pre-drinks in Leyton

E10

I spend a bit and save a bit

Dad tried his best but

He didn't drive no Tesla

It was a Vauxhall Vectra

I don't really care what you look like

I've been on the grind since pushbacks

Life gets tough for everybody else

So if you don't like it, goodbye

I never really understood why

They kick up a fuss when they could hide

Nobody's holding a gun to your head

I'm just here for a good time

I don't really care what you look like

I've been on the grind since pushbacks

Life gets tough for everybody else

So if you don't like it, goodbye

I never really understood why

They kick up a fuss when they could hide

Nobody's holding a gun to your head

I'm just here for a good time

It's interesting these days

Everything's changed

London's got all sorts

Different faces, accents, surnames

Don't get me wrong, I ain't racist

My best mate's black, Charlie

Plus at the parties

I love playing Wizkid and Bob Marley

Just they make a lot of noise

And of course it was bad what happened to George Floyd

But maybe he deserved to get destroyed

Plus my cousin's unemployed

'Cause now they wanna level the playing field

And give some black people jobs they might enjoy

I don't really care what you look like

I've been on the grind since pushbacks

Life gets tough for everybody else

So if you don't like it, goodbye
