Scene - CHIP, Jammer, D Double E

Because, y— d’you know what?

That’s a good thing to say because if you say, «Grime's dead» Everyone will

sorta think, «Oh, is grime dead?»

Some people who’ll know it ain’t dead will say, «No, it’s not dead»

Some people will go along and think, «Yeah, it is dead»

And in that case, that will flush out the people

Who shouldn’t even be there

And then the people who should be there will remain

So when I look at them «grime's dead» T-shirts

Sometimes I think, «Yeah, it is dead

Grime’s so dead that it’s not dead!»

Yo, wide awake in the scene

Me and my circle shapin' the scene

Dem man try bring fake to the scene

We clock that they can’t partake in the scene

You didn’t drop no tape in the scene

Ain’t got a reload 8 in the scene

Dem man there try takin' the dream

Think that they are but they ain’t in the scene

Seen us standin', so outstandin'

Light this amm' ting, I’m not landin'

You’re no bandit, stand like raskit

Had myself when no one backed it

Mandem skankin', they’re on a dab ting

UK ting, go home, black cab ting

Bore up what?

Chat shit, stop actin'

Man might fling that shield like Captain

Defensive tool used when attackin'

I’m not new to sends or clashin'

Never been sets, on sound you’re slackin'

Swing rounds till man down, no lackin'

Ask 'round in my scene, I’m active

Blast rounds on MCs for acting

Konnichiwa flow I’m stampin'

Born champion, long before «Champion»

Verse not ending, got more pendin'

This one here nasty, MAC 10 ting

'Llow me, you’re not real, you’re pretendin'

You’re on what I’m off, I’m on a next ting

Beats impactin', no relaxin'

Cop work and shot that, get stacks in

My pad, no fiction, just facts in

Your tracks should be the soundtrack for Catfish (yeah)

Wide awake in the scene

Me and my circle shapin' the scene

Dem man try bring fake to the scene

We clock that they can’t partake in the scene

You didn’t drop no tape in the scene

Ain’t got a reload 8 in the scene (Oh, my God)

Dem man there try takin' the dream

Think that they are but they ain’t in the scene (Ooh)

I’ve been rippin' the scene to bits from sixteen

And I’m still me (Yeah), ten times better than when I was sixteen

Man couldn’t test when I was sixteen

Even man that was older than sixteen

Didn’t believe that I was younger than sixteen

Always here, always been

Always fresh, always clean

That’s me (Mre, mre)

Nah, you ain’t been where I’ve been

Or seen what I’ve seen

Dem time there you weren’t on the scene

I was always clean in the scene

Pushed to fulfill my dream in the scene

Cuh man a mek money and man a mek plans

And man a mek money and badabupbup

That’s what I’m on right now, see?

(Ching-ching)

Badabupbup

Don’t mek a man bring the machine (Brrah)

You can’t squash it like tanger— tsk!

(Brrah)

Mek a man shake just like tambourine

Push a operation like the Marine

Take dem out, take dem out of the scene

Cuh dem man there don’t add to the scene

Just study and steal and grab from the scene, just nah

Wide awake in the scene

Me and my circle shapin' the scene

Dem man try bring fake to the scene

We clock that they can’t partake in the scene

You didn’t drop no tape in the scene

Ain’t got a reload 8 in the scene

Dem man there try takin' the dream (Serious)

Think that they are but they ain’t in the scene

Trust me, bare arseholes

Man try come with some bravado

I’m from the days of no videos

Just mic, lyrics, blud, hold your own

These times man was walkin' on road

Buildin' a scene and I didn’t even know

Same ting we done on the radio

Is what we do now on big stage shows

We’re doin' it 'cause we done it

You can’t ruin it 'cause we run it

Live it while you hate, we will create

You’re losin' it 'cause we bun it

Kill it, we love it, innit?

Blood, sweat, and years in the game

Everything’s changed but man look the same

You preheat the oven, I preheat the whip, fam, stay in your lane

Flower in my hand

You can’t stop me and my friends

All that hype and all that bullshit

Paranoia can make you lose it

Always had this, who you foolin'?

Make your movie, tell your story

It’s a celebration

I’ve been in the scene since MRC 60s

Born late 70s, not 60s

I know about music from the 60s

Gyaldem are black, white, Asian, and mixies

I’ll be makin' beats in my 60s

Head screwed on, that’s why you gotta pick me

Bro, I took the risk, it was risky

Won’t get offended if anybody diss me

Ayy, talk is cheap and we know that

Pass the gelato, fam, and let me roll that

Everybody’s new hat, looking at my old hat

New pics looking like old ones I took with a Kodak

Throwaway, throwaway

If you don’t know style then go away

I came in the game for a reason

I don’t last a game, I last seasons

Energetic, I leave the dance paralytic

If anybody’s got any talk, then direc' it

If anybody’s got any talk, please projec' it

Wireless, I got the vibe-us

Looking for the rosé wine-us

I’m the definition of grime-us

They can’t divide us

If you can’t breathe it, unblock your sinus

Wide awake in the scene

Me and my circle shapin' the scene

Dem man try bring fake to the scene

We clock that they can’t partake in the scene

You didn’t drop no tape in the scene

Ain’t got a reload 8 in the scene

Dem man there try takin' the dream

Think that they are but they ain’t in the scene
