[Verse 1]
I come from Preston
Where life's kinda grey and depressing
And any sunny day is a blessing
Better know who you repping
The man on the estate they'll be testing
The weed'll make you draw for the sky like a western
Everyone's under the impression
If you're wearing them brand names it's gonna impress them
The kids are on the roads and the 5's are arresting
American culture's in the streets and infesting
Would'a thought that the queens dead
The way that we're all out for the queens head
Kids having kids and can only just feed them
Cheating on the women, they be beating on the women
We might leave with other women even though we need them
You ain't gotta look for a racist
They're lurking you can find them in the craziest of places
But this is my hometown where the bloodline live
So use it as a guide when you come to the bits
[Hook]
Welcome to Preston
Spark ya lighters up
Ashtown
Spark your lighters up
Savick and Larches
Spark your lighters up
Tanny and Ingol
Spark your lighters up
Plungi to Broadgate
Spark your lighters up
Callon and Avenham
Spark your lighters up
Ribbi to Greenlands
Spark your lighters up
It's all P's'
Let me see your lighters up
[Verse 2]
Let me take you under the belly
The youth are being raised by the telly
They're drinking cause their sorrows are heavy
Now they drinking that Remy
Young girls taking their clothes off
... till they ain't ready
Stuck in the system
Everybody talk, nobody listen
We don't care if you've got food
As long as we glisten
And like, half the team are in prison
A country where a little girl ain't safe, somebody's missing
Now everybody cares again, man ain't never heard of them
Til' they see the news and some scumbag murdered them
Same old story, no-one looks until it's too late
Government lie off the top of their head to pay
But this is where I write, where I roll, where I lie
Where I know, where I cry, where I try observe the sky
Just take a second to think before you diss mine
We're country mandem ...
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
sh** fam, I'm so cray
See me smoking with Closey
You know I'm so blazed
You see me in the scene
With Dean we're not fazed
And rapper wanna act up
I'll put him in his place
I'm in the booth like sh** fam I'm so sick
And all these other rappers can pretend I ain't the sh**
And all these other spitters can pretend I ain't the king
But I still pull the strings, take a bow, kiss the ring
And I'm gone..
