I took my time but I had to build
Since 21 I really had no time to chill
Who would've thought me and my team would be worth mills
Mum telling me go Lidge but I'm stuck doing deals
In and out of jail through most of my teens
Age 21 is when I really got on my feet
They used to call me Yardie now it's Marlow P
Since I got money it's been all eyes on me
Yeah I turned up my hood couple niggas tried to turn on me
We got beef I ain't stopping till it's RIP
I went school and didn't leave with no GCSE's
I'm bout to get the pad and pen and do it off streams
I had dreams of being a plumber
I used to kick ball now I'm shotting bricks all summer
I fell in love with a jug, I can never be a robber
I ain't always been a boss, I started as a runner
Yeah I grew up in Auntie Maxine's
I went school in Fulham, year nine is when I started shotting weed
By the next year I was shotting fiends
Me, shells, loans, theft then we started frank and D
Shepherd Bush where the badness happen
Couple man done me wrong but I'm glad it happened
All I see is lil' pricks bummy utes chatting doing the most
Acting like they on shit but they ain't no savage
Age seven when I came into the country
Fresh black youth they used to label me a monkey
Shoulda saw my face when I made my first monkey
Now I'm sending monkeys back home to build a house back in my country
Now I'm twenty nine tryna build
You wanna know the deal, I'ma show you what's real
I'm tryna leave the roads but everything just got real
I'm that nigga that these bitch niggas wanna kill
I'm tryna do this ting for my two daughters
And pray all them Bricks come through new borders
I tell my young G hold down them three corners
Until I'm filthy rich I'm forever taking orders
