Roll Deep Crew - Badman lyrics

rate me

Verse 1 -- Scratchy

He kept squeezing but he's missing the point

He never had his head screwed on from a boy

The boys that he rolled with they weren't his boys

He didn't realise then he was with the wrong crowd

He don't listen, that's why he won't learn anything,

earn anything or turn anything around

He don't use his loaf when he's on the roads

That's why his life turned round, upside down

Of course there was gonna be consequences

When jumping fences, you will get court and sentenced.

That's a bad look and entrance

Keep it up, he won't see his pension

Watch me I'll live till I'm older

If he likes leng so much, go army and be a soldier

I don't care what that badman told you,

You can be a badman with out a revolver

Chorus (Breeze/Flowdan)

He's a big man, thats what he wants

He's a badman, thats his response

Where is he going, what's he gonna be

Watch what happens, wait and see

He's a big man, thats what he wants

He's a badman, thats his response

Where is he going, what's he gonna be

Watch what happens, wait and see

Verse 2 -- Breeze

Got a gully little friend

Little gully man, gully with a leng

Billa know that he's bate on the ends

Lives for da road, more time in pen

He's blessed with me but G-d's not reaching him

Wasting time trying to preach to him

This boy needs help, like nobody can't chat to him

All been there done poop for a laugh

Run a muck ran up da wrong path

Been a prick done crazy shit

gunshot

Karmas a bitch dats just the half

Youts go missin in da system

Get banged up like sonny liston

Come back worse then they went in

Pissed cos nobody missed em

Chorus (Breeze/Flowdan)

He's a big man, thats what he wants

He's a badman, thats his response

Where is he going, what's he gonna be

Watch what happens, wait and see

He's a big man, thats what he wants

He's a badman, thats his response

Where is he going, what's he gonna be

Watch what happens, wait and see

Verse 3 -- Jet Le

So what's he gonna do? Wants to do this?

Roll with the mash with the 2 clips?

Unload the shells for a few kicks?

Make em do summersaults, back flips?

After the drama he made that change

Hot headed from a younger to get that name

Other men fear him, dither and jowal

But police catch him, its straight prison

Never occurred to him to just think

"Your life means more than this"

Take another mans life there's more to it

Sit down for it

Some end up in jail

Some lose the plot

I know what it's like if they disrespect

Use your intellect, get them in another way

Clean heart, and live and over stand this

A wise man will learn but a fool never will

Chorus (Breeze/Flowdan)

He's a big man, thats what he wants

He's a badman, thats his response

Where is he going, what's he gonna be

Watch what happens, wait and see

He's a big man, thats what he wants

He's a badman, thats his response

Where is he going, what's he gonna be

Watch what happens, wait and see

Verse 4 -- Flow Dan

These are some serious times

And it's only getting worse cos the streets ain't nice

It was 1996 one time at chimes

When he first heard a gunshot blud, he had to hide

Two double O six, we're in the same mix

and teenagers are rolling with nines ain't the lick

and they're shooting each other on idiot shit

like: "man he tried it, does he think I'm a prick?"

nah.... But I bet you felt like one

waiting for a visit and your visit don't come

but when the door shuts, it's just you and you one

and that's because of you and what you did with a mash

now look your family's not safe

revenge is wanted and you're locked away

it's a circle of pain that never goes away

all because of one gunshot that you bus' that day
