Dappy - Intro (Fortune) lyrics

[Verse 1] Ay, yo, look Pissy staircases, momma grinding for minimum wages I'm out here debt collecting whilst mummy’s ducking the bailiffs A young gunner tryna ball like Patrick Vieira I didn't wanna walk to school had to jack a Carrerra Them days of eighth came looking like a three five My only holiday was a trip to the seaside I'll never settle, I’m a rebel, fu*k the heartache That's why I was out here dotting pebbles up in Margate Little Duki was a rapper, his bredrin was a trapper Both grew up in the same hood but got caught up in the passa Hella quick to cause a mazza if ever he spot an opp When Duk was low and he was up he was always swinging them shots Just 15, limousine, dreaming about the top Out here scheming bout how we gonna cop us the latest drop I see a man do well I wanna link him and pour him Hennessy Cause my hearts clean I can't keep up with all the jealousy Long story short Duki only went and bust, I'm talking major Now he's known as "Mr. Do a Man a Million Favours" Ain't this like the hundredth time Duki's had to save ya? Loyalty a lifestyle, never be a traitor Oi, why you watching man's guap? Lay your own paper You see that side-eye there? That sh*t gon turn man to a hater Duk told you, you ain’t chopping up, no more squares And he then he brought you in the circle just so you fly straighter On mums life man I had you from early You made a drink like out of everything, why so thirsty? You was TM for two months and you made like thirty So how you gon do that boy there dirty One night Duki was lacking rolling with sis Stopped at a shop for some drinks, a couple man took the piss There was like 1 v. 9, man had to swallow his pride Usually, Duk a hothead but this just wasn’t the time Now they in the whip, sis bawling, Duk biting his nails She like "Rah, how you really gonna take this L?" So then I went a grab a uh, I'll do anything for her Duki had to mash work, give a fu*k bout jail So then he nearly caught an AM, because some shh snitched Then Duki’s bredrin caught him slipping kicking ball in the pitch As if my brother ever roll without a ting on his list He's like here hold this to ya ugh fu*king hell talk about having everything and then dashing it down the drain And now your boys all in a mix and he left man with a stain On top of that you're in a mess doing up Ivy Parade Duk must be blessed than witness never even came Boomerang, Duki bounced right back on his feet When the same snitched caught back up with bro's bro last week He got the droppa where you’d be Then he run-up in the T, remember me I hold that in ya "ooh" Your boy'll say he's down to ride and duck down your pagans And he'll make you feel guilty then he'll give you bare auto maintenance You try give 'em an inch they take a mile You give a man a drink they want the whole fu*king Nile Duki's never been a yes-man But still they wanna test man Since when has Duki done shows for less than 10 wham? You acting like your kids the only ones that need to eat Brother, you're the one that's out here tryna get us booked for cheap "You mad or suttin bro you nearly caught me a case Furthermore, you're ain't the one left with the kweft up face But rest up mate, gotta get you out your house by 8 Yo go bed bro, you been chatting sh*t till late" sh*t weren't right, he was moving mad that night Cause I when I woke up next day my jewel box felt light Its all changed, I hear you and I feel your pain But how you gonna live in my yard and steal my chain? Yeah you done me but I know that you was burning I nearly risked the team, I swear to God I could have turned him It could've been curtains and I know that for certain But bro I've always love you I could never turn vermin I'm always gonna miss you, wish you heard this song Glad we spoke in the celly after you did me wrong I felt incomplete, before I let this out My brother rest in peace You'll be in my heart till the day that I decease [Outro] I was out tryna give, give give Was I tryna help me live Mm-hm, Mm-hm
