Bullet From A Gun

Bullet From A Gun - Skepta

Big Smoke SK LEVEL greaze

Listen

Like a bullet from a gun it burns

When you realise she was never your girl

It was just your turn

You gotta face your demons

Don't matter how much money you earn

Your n***as said 4L

But the s**t got real and you weren't concerned

The same old story the world spins 'round and 'round fam

Lessons have to get learned

Truth has to be told

I don't bend I don't fold

I lost count how many we sold

I went Silver I went Gold

Then I went Platinum so what's next

Supermodels tryna sex

Sendin' nudes on a text

Can't believe I used to be vexed

See it's too easy

To write a sad song about how my dad raised me

'Cause I'm lookin' in the mirror and my dad made me

A real top boy I just can't play the victim

Been livin' my life as a kingpin

I'm calm with the heat in the kitchen

I was a young boy mum told me

What my name really means

And the power just kicked in

I found my way home

Then I saw my granddad's name on a gravestone

The same as mine already dead

Nothin' to fear I been here from time

Chief SK sippin' on palm wine

Every day I laugh at these n***as online

Another one here today gone tomorrow

Dick ridin' for some likes and a follow

Put in the work that's all you need to bust

Shoutout Lancey Headie and J Hus

Shout 67 oh you see them with us

We was on tour bare weed on the bus

Feds outside the bus gotta push to the next city gotta rush

Big plans gettin' discussed so freedom is a must

F**k the police tell 'em

Eat my dust

'Cause still it ain't safe not even in a world full of cops

I got bored of askin'

When is this hurt gonna stop

We don't want to conversate or confer with the opps

It is what it is

Recently I've been learnin' a lot

All I know is there's no better feeling

Than gettin' home and seein' my little girl in a cot so

This year we're done talkin'

Forget the bagga chat it's just action

Man are trollin' to get a reaction

Every day it's another distraction

Gotta fight temptation can't get lost in the sauce

Have I got a heart Yeah of course

But I had to put my feelings on pause

'Cause like a bullet from a gun it burns

When you realise she was never your girl

It was just your turn

You got to face your demons

Don't matter how much money you earn

Your n***as said 4L

But the s**t got real and you weren't concerned

The same old story the world spins 'round and 'round fam

Lessons have to get learned
