Krept & Konan - Devil's Playground lyrics

[Verse 1: Krept] Yeah The hood.. The ends.. The ghetto Whatever you wanna call it I call it the devil's playground, I realise late, but better late than never Yeh Driving through the hood, thinking how f**ed it is Like how the f** can anybody be in love with this Nobody's house round here's got a butler in I see a h**ne addict here suffering Hold on, I used to f** with him, that's Aaron from school I grew up with him I used to chill, kick ball and get lunch with him. (what else) What a shame now the hoods caught up with him, And these hood girls completely insane, they've got more cleavage than brains They think we're dogs ‘cos we want a one nighter No ‘cos your a ho and we don't wanna wife ya Siting here thinking how the hood left us, dead, jail, couple n***as went nuts, Thinking about my life what do I really need Turn need around, what I really need is the deen The gangsters of the 21st century, no remorse screaming f** the penitentiary They'll run-upon you while your with your ex talking about your pregnancy. Then pill your wig for your Ecstasy, Now revenge is a must, and your friends get gloves, then ride on ‘em with that 38 snub We'll take yours if you take one of us, that's what they thinking as they drive your mums Kick off the door than they beat off that gun So you duck and you run, and all you thinking is they come to my mums; are they dumb? And the cycle goes on, and the riding don't stop, and people from both sides getting dropped If you grew up in a gang then I know you can relate I wish someone schooled us earlier, now it's too late Before the gips set saga, before kone lost his father The road tings dead, but we learnt this all after There's way more to life than the hood I don't car who the baddest, meanest, person is, can't take that to your grave with you homes We learnt the hard way, but it made us who we are today And that's real talk [Verse 2: Konan] That's way I think about it daily It's like god took Carl just to save me From then I knew I'd never be the same me Now I see sense that sh** changed me Yeh, I've been through a lot Surrounded by these fools that would rather see me drop I was at the bottom with visions of the top sitting in jail tyrnna think out of the box I remember the times when, life was just hype and excitement Yeh, we should've been revising, but we was busy running from the sirens Now all these bright lights got me wanting more Just came off the phone and me and mum just had the longest talk But when the sky falls I know I'll still be wishing that we had bonded more But from trying wrap food to trying to make rap tunes Get out of the trap before it traps you Hoping Karma don't catch you ‘Cos lifes all Twitter till They're pointing guns at you Why would you wanna go legit when crime pays Don't go uni, still got high grade Trying to move forward Friends are moving sideways ‘Cos they love it when your down here when your up feeling like you're stuck Ain't got nobody to trust Now you're moving power when your with the chick Cos those stoosh girls will have you in little mix And all you wanna do is leave the ends Cos where was everybody when you need them? The hoods f**ed yeh I see it now, I'm just pissed I couldn't see it then It's like you have to see it to actually know you don't wanna be in it, it's like my mum always used to say to me If don't have it you must feel it, and we done a lot of feeling, a lot feelin Kone
