[Hook: Skepta] When it's shutdown That's not me and it's shutdown Ring ring pussy, it's shutdown Fashion week and it's shutdown Went to the show sitting in the front row In the black tracksuit and it's shutdown Touch the road and it's shutdown Boy Better Know when it's shutdown
[Verse 1: Skepta] Yeah, take time if a man wanna try me, no time Usain Bolt when I run up on stage I pick up the mic and it's reload time Don't know your songs but they know mine That's why I got gigs just like Joe Grind After the show I be rolling mine Don't care bout the no smoking sign They try to steal my vision This ain't a culture, it's my religion God knows I don't wanna go prison But if a man wanna try me, trust me listen Me and my G's ain't scared of police We don't listen to no politician Everybody on the same mission We don't care about your -ism and -cisms
[Hook: Skepta] Cause it's shutdown That's not me and it's shutdown Ring ring pussy, it's shutdown Fashion week and it's shutdown Went to the show sitting in the front row In the black tracksuit and it's shutdown Touch the road and it's shutdown Boy Better Know when it's shutdown
[Verse 2: Skepta] You wanna act like a G for the camera You say you're Muslim, you say you're Rasta Say you don't eat pork, don't eat pussy Liar, you're just a actor Blud, you're not on your deen And if Selassie saw you he would say "Blud take off the red gold and green" Them man are soft just like ice cream Seen? Start moving correctly If you don't wanna upset me, you get me? You tryna show me your Fendi I told you before, this shit don't impress me I bet I make you respect me When you see the mandem are selling out Wembley Roll deep in a blacked out Bentley Pull up outside like "wah gwan sexy"

[Skit] A bunch of young men all dressed in black dancing extremely aggressively on stage, it made me feel so intimidated and it's just not what I expect to see on prime time TV
[Verse 3: Skepta] I'm in a different class When I get through I'mma bring my dargs 2 by 2, man a walk on the ark Sittin' at the front, just like Rosa Parks Trust me, you don't wanna see me get dark Upset cause man are way up right now And the shit happened all so fast I was in Paris, shut down l'Arc New York, shut down Central Park Talk about London, yo Frisco where shall I start? Walked in, spat ten 16 bars And each and every one of them came from the heart None of my lyrics are stolen "Go on then, go on then", that's my slogan Wanna know how I did it with no label No A-list songs, and I told them
[Hook] Blud, I just shutdown That's not me and it's shutdown Ring ring pussy, it's shutdown Fashion week and it's shutdown Went to the show sitting in the front row In the black tracksuit and it's shutdown Touch the road and it's shutdown Boy Better Know when it's shutdown
