Yo, MC's better start chatting about what's really happening

Because if you ain't chatting about what's happening

Where you living? What you talking about?

'Cause you know and I know, it's gonna be a hot summer (Yo)

And you know what (It's Live-O), it's gonna be an even hotter winter (It's Live-O)

Dizzee Rascal, uh

[Verse 1]

Looks like I'm losing friends, there's a lot of hostility in my ends

We used to argue, always make up and be friends (Uh)

Now we settle disagreements with the skengs (Yo)

Looks like I'm losing mates, there's a lot hostility near my gates

We used to fight with kids from other estates

Now eight millimetres settle debates (Woo)

Looks like I'm losing sight 'cause I'm looking at the future, it ain't bright

So I look out my window and pray every night

I thank God for my friends, but they ain't tight (Yo)

Looks like I'm losing hope, 'cause I climb this mountain without rope

But I know I'm the captain of my boat (Uh), so I steadily sail and hope not to float (Live-O)

[Chorus]

But it's a brand new day (Yo), new opportunities, what can I say? (What can I say? Uh)

I plan to make my paper (Yo), put some away for a off key day (Uh, put it away)

But it's a brand new day (Yo), new opportunities, what can I say? (Live-O, yo)

I plan to make my paper (Uh), put some away for a off key day (Uh, yo)

Pay money, pay respect, don't insult my intellect

Pay money, pay respect (Yo), don't insult my intellect (Yo)

[Verse 2]

When we ain't kids no more will it still be about what it is right now?

Like fighting for anything, anytime and acting without a care anywhere (Yo)

And when we ain't kids no more (Uh), will it still be about what it is right now?

Like bank scams, street robbery, shotters plotters or H.M.P

And when we ain't kids no more, will it still be about what it is right now? (Yo)

Pregnant girls who think they love, useless mans with no plans

And when we ain't kids no more, will it still be about what it is right now?

'Cause negative signs just keep showing up (Showing)

Some of us better just start growing up (Yo)

[Chorus]

But it's a brand new day (Live, uh), new opportunities (Yo), what can I say? (Live, what can I say?)

I plan to make my paper (Yo), put some away for a off key day (Uh, put it away)

But it's a brand new day (Uh, yo), new opportunities (Roll Deep), what can I say? (Get me? What can I say?)

I plan to make my paper, put some away for a off key day (Uh)

Yo, demand collect, cash up front and direct (Yo)

Pay money, pay respect (Get me?), don't insult my intellect (What?)

Demand collect, cash up front and direct (Uh)

Pay money, pay respect, don't insult my intellect

[Verse 3]

When I look at my life, I can't help but think

'Cause I could've resorted to drugs and drink

We were never quite sure of what's in store

Every day I wake up I can't help but feel

Uncertain of life, I mean this is real

Mad thoughts skip around my head like dancers

I know it's long to question, but I need answers

The who's? The what's? The how's? The when's? The why's?

You can at look in my face and see the pain in my eyes

Tears ready to fall like the rain in the skies

So hold back, put my feet down and rise

'Cause guys wanna test my words

So I can't just cater for second or third

Plus I know predators only go for the weak

And that's long so I gotta stay strong, you get me?

[Chorus]

But it's a brand new day (Uh), new opportunities, what can I say? (Uh, what can I say?)

I plan to make my paper (Uh), put some away for a off key day (Yeah, put it away)

But it's a brand new day (Uh), new opportunities, what can I say? (What can I say? Uh)

I plan to make my paper (Uh), put some away for a off key day (It's Live-O)

Yo, demand collect (Demand collect), cash up front and direct (Uh uh-huh)

Pay money, pay respect (Pay respect), don't insult my intellect (No-no, no)

Demand collect (Uh-huh), cash up front and direct (Pay me man)

Pay money, pay respect (Yo), don't insult my intellect

[Outro]

Uh

Get ?

It's real like that

We're not ****ing about

Yo

You're know we're going on dirty, going on skank

Summers gonna be real man

Dizzee Rascal cool tank

Better start moving up

Move

You get me? Uh

Nothing ain't sweet, nothing ain't

It's Live-O

It's Live-O

Big up my bredrin Wiley

It's all real

Roll Deep

And I'm out of here man, let me

Dizzee Ras'
