Intro:
oohooh ooooh ooh oohooh oohooh
do it how we do it, (how we do it how we flow)
Eski Boi!
Confident with the flow!
Wiley:
im coming from a place where nobody obeys the law,
street law aint the same as real police laws,
I wanna know what you're stopping me for, really.
it aint 'cos I've run out of tax, search the car,
u won't find what you're looking for,
I ain't got drugs and I aint got a gat in my car,
there's a baseball bat in my car,
but I use that to play baseball or I play rounders,
who made guns, you are the founders,
the level of gun crime is going bonkers,
the ammount of drugs on the street is beyond us,
them politicians blame us,
them politicians, they don't like us,
they wanna see us self destruct, but,
some of us are too smart to be taken apart,
and the strength, light blinks,
theres a fire in my heart listen up, 'cos..
chorus: (x2)
5-0's acting like people don't know,
the governments acting like people don't know,
to me it seems like they don't know,
where we're coming from
see I knew a girl back in the day,
never had a penny to her name,
almost worked two jobs, just to raise her kids,
yeah,
see the house that she was living at,
see it wasn't that appropriate,
to cut a long story short,
they took her kids away..
oh what a shame
chorus (x2)
BR Double:
I'm a coming up,
menace to society,
me, BR-Double from the lost society,
no morals, let alone priorities,
mad brother, he pays the largest majority,
it's my porogative, gotta think positive,
cos everything around me's negative,
know what I roll with, and who I roll with,
you can never live where I live,
I'm lost, I'm wearing a matrix top,
politics, im play tricks
let's take it all back to basics
no mortgage, just a few bricks and mortar
I still keep my head above the water,
drowned if I was a half foot shorter,
so let me tell you where im coming from,
where the boogie man's the only man im running from.
chorus (x2)
Roll Deep is a British hip hop collective formed in 2002 in London. Considered one of the cornerstones of the grime scene, they have significantly contributed to the diffusion of this underground music genre. The group has hosted artists of great talent such as Wiley, Skepta and Dizzee Rascal, who have achieved international fame. In 2006, the Tate Gallery of London invited Roll Deep to participate in the Tate Tracks project, an initiative that paired contemporary music with visual art works exhibited at the Tate Modern. Roll Deep composed a track inspired by the sculpture "Ishi's Light" by Anish Kapoor, demonstrating their ability to convey emotions and concepts through music in an original and innovative way. The group's record label is Roll Deep Recordings.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
