Cold Nights In The 61 - Bugzy Malone

Yeah

Buggz

It’s 2020 the darkest

Yo, yo, yo, yo

See when I get to deep thinking

I feel like a DiCaprio, but the ship is not sinking

Been watching these other MC’s In my rearview mirror

To the point I had to start blinking

I’ve gotta rethink it

Cause I don’t wanna get entangled

I’m not Pinkett

I keep a little 950 just as a blanket

Cause when I was young I had 3k in the back garden

I had a 125 with no reg plate are you mad

Didn’t even have plastics on the bottom

But it was the best bike I ever had

I said I’m tired of constantly talking about the past

It’s been a long time since I had to wear a mask

And pulled up and kicked the door until there wasn’t any glass

As if I’ve never had a wing on smash

I keep a sword and shield to my right and my left

I was on the battlefield doing Macbeth

You can keep the east and the south and the west

I’m the king of the north got it tatted on the chest

And they’re still tryna catch my fire in the booth numbers

Still getting paid from my M.E.N.

numbers

I’m looking at a box of 50's and there’s 100's

And the beef ain’t over till we’re 6 feet under

And I know he likes to stab man

I always get the memo

If I’m dealing in boxes I have to get a demo

They’re looking at it like it don’t belong on the curb

But when you get a Rolls Royce you can park on double yellows

They can’t relate to me anymore

They talk like the plan wasn’t to escape

Like we didn’t discuss living in Spain

But when you really do it big nobody celebrates

92% healed still limping

See what happens when I get to deep thinking

When you really from the roads

And you blow and explode

Feels like your hometown will never stop shrinking

I was in Japan bumping into fans

Tell the label I don’t need the advance

I was 21 before I’d ever used a bank

Me I used to love rubber bands

Before I ever got an M on YouTube I had 50

And that was dirty money

And I’d bring a load with me when I had a music video

Now I see these new up and coming rappers

I can’t really see that kinda doe

In M.E.N.

one I had 20 in the bag

That’s a laundering charge

If they’d have come to the gaff

We used to rent out apartments

So we could pour buckets of dank into the bath

When I think this deep I never get no sleep

And the price of living isn’t cheap

With a gardener a cleaner an accountant

And the vehicles are luxury

So they need cleaning every week

Turns out there’s no one you can bring with you

When you’re the only one to see the bigger picture

When they start wanting handouts

I just let the bridge burn like a blue slim Rizla

I never worked a day in my life

Tell a lie, there was this one time I worked a 9 to 5

And I would come to work 8 Z’s on the back seat

And I collect money on the top floor at dinner time

I was a sheep dog

When a shepherd let me hold a beater

10 years before I ever touched a meter

Playing team death match as if I was a solider

But that’s just Modern Warfare

Welcome to the bees nest, home of the killer bee

It’s cold in the north, so we keep artillery

Made a couple mill last year

And the year before that

It’s only right I make that a tribology

We don’t need lions in the camp, we got kings

Don’t need a right hand when the jab stings

And you never need gas when you’ve really got straps

And we all take losses, but we’ve took em' with class

When I lost, you see a Subaru fly past

And you can ask Arms if we got it right back

When we pulled up where we tryna' hit knee caps

And aren’t they lucky they never got kidnapped

They were bad on the phone

When they seen us they flapped

You win some you lose some, you learn and adapt

I would never trust bitches, they’ll set up the trap

Trust nobody, stack up money until you can relax

Welcome to the thoughts of a street kid that made it

Welcome to the mind of the one that went first

I left the door open so them man can go and get wages

Nobody this independent, they all signed to labels

And that’s why a crown is my pendant

I said nobody this independent, they all sign to labels

And that’s why a crown is my pendant
