[ Verse 2 ] One day I was with my bredren Adar roaming the street On the main road, hungry looking for something to eat Not no burger and no chips, sh** that's easily digested It's that sh** that if you re caught you'll be easily arrested We was on a robbing spree, I forgot to mention Clayton Was this bredder rolling with us, he was scared and it was blatant He was prang but back to the story, Adar spotted a man Straight ahead of us in the distance with his wifey holding hands So we followed them through this little alleyway into the flats When we thought the time was perfect, we crept up and we attacked I took the first swing, unexpected causing panic We was ruthless causing agony in public, it was tragic Me and Adar lost the plot, acting like we was from Hell Beat this bredder to the floor, moved his wifey up as well Clayton stood back shaking, wishing that he'd never came Then from out of nowhere was Alicia screaming out my name She went my school, she saw it all, and by this time, she's crying And to make it worse I'm hearing sirens, I ain't even trying to hang around [ Hook ] [ Bridge ] I can hear them sirens coming I can hear them sirens coming I break the law, I will never change I break the law, I will never change I break the law, I will never change Step into my zone, get your whole face re-arranged [ Verse 3 ] See me on the telly but I ain't no actor Running through the street bait-faced, it's a jackwa Broad daylight, no shame like a lunatic Rain, hail, sleet or snow, I ain't new to it Show me what you got, better give it up quickly Lay them on their back if they chat back swiftly Better mind out when they come through the manor, man Keep them on their toes like Hammer, man It's no joke, man, woman, and child I'm seeking See, no s**, no age, I'm creeping Anything for the dough, code of the wheelers Duck from the feds and I roll with the dealers Par with the hard heads and young offenders No, my life ain't nothing like Eastenders Step into my zone, get your whole face re-arranged I break the law, I will never change
