Headie One Beggars Can’t Be Choosers

Over the past few months, Headie One has been offering new singles in anticipation of his follow-up to 2020’s EDNA. His last release turned out to be the project that garnered international attraction, especially with names like Drake and Future attached to the tracklist. His recent singles have been a return to from of sorts. Bringing it back to the sounds of UK drill and road rap, he came through with a brand new single this week titled, “Beggars Can’t Be Choosers.” Though it lacks the sinister stylings that make up the UK sound, the more upbeat production allows Headie One to celebrate all of his accomplishments and wins over the years.

The latest from Headie One arrives a few months after dropping “2 Chains.” Peep his new single below.

Lyrics

[Intro]
(Quincy Tellem)
Turn, turn, yo (Turn, turn)

[Chorus]
Got yutes that I loved, that I can’t be cool with (Ah)
Yutes I gotta lick down, that I went school with (Ah, ah)
Had to ching someone I was on the wing with (Suh)
Mask off like Future (Suh, suh, suh)
How me and him got beef now?
We sat down and ate Ko-Lee noodles (Turn, turn)
Sawn-off shotgun, I risked it all with (Turn, turn, they told me turn)
Beggars can’t be choosers (Yeah)
Yutes that I loved, that I can’t be cool with
Yutes I gotta lick down that I went school with
Had to ching someone I was on the wing with (Suh)
My mask off like Future (Suh, suh, suh)
How me and him got beef now?
We sat down and ate Cauli noodles (One)
Sawed shotgun, I risked it all with (Turn, turn, turn, turn)
Beggars can’t be choosers (Yo)

[Verse 1]
Kash got eight for a pocket rocket
He did somethin’ foolish (Free up, free up)
He was playin’ with a hand ting
With his bare hands like Rupert (Ah)
Vel shaved suttin’ upsuh
Broski forgot about camera footage (Turn, turn, turn, turn)
Now, we gotta link up with rugs on minimum (Turn, my nigga)
I could’ve had seven on my back just like a right winger
I don’t wanna lie to her, wanna lie with her
She know, but she don’t like Bryson Tiller (Turn)
She ask why I invest in smoke
Why? ‘Cah I self care like Mac Miller (One)
They said they got smoke, but I know mine’s bigger
Two G ’17, now, I’m down five figures (Turn, turn, turn up)
Burnt unlimited dingers (Dammit)
But now out in the field, I done played them fixtures (Uh)
Pussio shoot, no, you ain’t no driller (Uh)
Newborn baby can pull that trigger
I was in the Trizzy (Suh)
Five hundred grams in gym and no gymnasium (Uh, one)
Went from magic to the mic, Channing Tatum

[Chorus]
Got yutes that I loved, that I can’t be cool with
Yutes I gotta lick down, that I went school with (Ah, ah, ah)
Had to ching someone I was on the wing with
Mask off like Future (Suh, suh, su-su-suh)
How me and him got beef now?
We sat down and ate Ko-Lee noodles
Sawn-off shotgun, I risked it all with (Turn, turn)
Beggars can’t be choosers (Turn, turn, they told me turn)
Yutes that I loved, that I can’t be cool with (Yeah)
Yutes I gotta lick down that I went school with
Had to ching someone I was on the wing with (Suh)
My mask off like Future (Suh, su-su-suh)
How me and him got beef now?
We sat down and ate Cauli noodles
Sawed shotgun, I risked it all with (One)
Beggars can’t be choosers (Yo)

[Verse 2]
They say beggars can’t be choosers (No)
Winners can’t be losers (Really)
How many time did I lose my freedom?
Where the opps at? It can’t be in a movement (Where?)
Another heart stop, it can’t be bootin’ (Turn)
It just can’t be another shootin’ (Turn, turn, turn)
Three hundred English pounds to spare
Might buy me a house in Luton
And when I make five million English pounds
Then I’ma sign up for uni
Got hung jury in front of the judge
Not Judy, her children love my music (Free up)
She said “Don’t do it again” like Pia Mia
Bro wanna make this strip hot like Congo
With a PR, not DR (Brr)
Ever had the jakes pissed, they couldn’t find that nina?
Bad B wanna get rid of my clothes, I think she is a keeper
Got this ting from Uxbridge, one from Dulwich, I can phone up either (Both)
She love the AP, but I come with a chandelier like Sia

[Chorus]
Got yutes that I loved, that I can’t be cool with (Ah)
Yutes I gotta lick down, that I went school with (Ah, ah)
Had to ching someone I was on the wing with (Suh)
Mask off like Future (Suh, suh, suh)
How me and him got beef now?
We sat down and ate Ko-Lee noodles (Turn, turn)
Sawn-off shotgun, I risked it all with (Turn, turn, they told me turn)
Beggars can’t be choosers (Yeah)
Yutes that I loved, that I can’t be cool with
Yutes I gotta lick down that I went school with
Had to ching someone I was on the wing with (Suh)
My mask off like Future (Suh, suh, suh)
How me and him got beef now?
We sat down and ate Cauli noodles (One)
Sawed shotgun, I risked it all with (Turn, turn, turn, turn)
Beggars can’t be choosers (Yo)
