I Was Like You

Wiley

[Intro]
(Shut your mout', Maniac)
Aha
(Shut your mout’, Maniac)
Oi
(Shut your mout', Maniac)
Maniac production (Shut your mout', Maniac)
(Shut your mout’, Maniac)
Brandon Lee (Shut your mout', Maniac), Entertainment (Shut your mout', Maniac)
(Shut your mout')
Eskibeat Recordings (Shut your mout', you dickhead, Maniac)
Yeah? (Maniac, shut your mout', you dickhead, Maniac)
Aye, listen (Aye, listen, Maniac, shut your mout', you dickhead, Maniac)
Hail up, Maniac
See you soon (Maniac, shut your mout', you dickhead, Maniac)
I was like you rudeboy
I had nowhere to live

[Verse 1]
Now I’m on an M6, waiting in my Bentley
Shut up
Knew everybody thought I would get stuck up
But what they didn’t know was I'm a full time rapper
Got the blues, that’s proper
Move with Tucker
Recording box changes the size of the buffer
Wait, wait, wait, see I got a few cold bars
Never would you ever see me in a swag proper
Never, no where, not ever
Could you ever be a better MC? Not ever
Now the aim of the game is get more cheddar
You can't control me, I control the weather
I'm a weatherman, in a leather bomber with fur
For the colour, put it over a nice, clean, sweater
E3 trend setter, yeah you was nang before
Now Eskiboy's better

[Chorus]
It’s like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
On the beats, keep wishing
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down

[Post-Chorus]
I was like you rudeboy
I had no place to go

[Verse 2]
Now I got three yards, and a free yard
For the next three months, I'll be in a free yard
I'm a free man, regular free bank cards
I'm rich, second name Cowie
Hello
Came from a Ghetto, but my name ain't Ghetts
True, I'm a boss, I can tell a dog fetch
That's wrong though, so I'll be cool like Wretch
I've got no point to prove
MCs? I'm the top one brother
I fire bullets out like a shotgun lover
You're gonna see me pose in new front cover
Gotta show love for the magazine lover
Way ahead of them man, I've been to the motherland
Went to Miami and I saw Danny Glover
Hail off another black brother

[Chorus]
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
On the beats, keep wishing
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
On the beats, keep wishing
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down

[Post-Chorus]
I was like you rudeboy
I didn't think I would live to hear

[Verse 3]
I don't drive a whip if it ain't six years
In six years, I will be a sick bredder
With sick money in the back
Be in my 36th year
I see a clique back there
Trying to get into the air
You wanna fly? You ain't ready for the air
I'm a genius, wizard
Avalanche blizzard
And next year, I'm gonna step into the clear
I ain't come here to bread
I don't care about you or your team
No, I ain't helping you or your dream
Some say life ain't what it seems
You don't achieve goals like me
I've got a different talent
Out with the old, in with the new balance
If they ain't meant to be here, then ban him
I'm on 1Xtra like Darren

[Chorus]
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
On the beats, keep wishing
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
On the beats, keep wishing
It's like you don't watch television
Get a better vision
I'm a real money man, getting money on the mission
Listen, Kylea and Brandon have got it locked down
