Skepta Lit Like This
Skepta’s new All In EP release hasn’t fallen under the radar for many, as the pioneer of UK grime has become an icon abroad. The 38-year-old is now a seasoned veteran of the UK rap game though still manages to bring the same levels fire and energy that many newcomers offer. While All In features high-profile names like Kid Cudi and J.Balvin, Skepta continues to shine on his own- as evidenced by “Lit Like This.”
Skepta – Lit Like This (prod. JAE5 & Skepta)
Lyrics
[Chorus]
Got the girls, the cars, the money in the bank (Bank)
Keys to the house, whip bigger than a tank
So much ice, it’s a joke, don’t mistake it for a prank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a shank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a skeng (Ice)
You got bagged for a M, he didn’t even get a ten (Snitch)
Them boys snitchin’, man, they’re rattin’ on their friends (Brrt)
He’s a opp boy, can’t pattern up again (JAE5)
[Verse 1]
Back from the village with a brand new source
Another G.O.A.T. got sacrificed of course (Greaze)
I don’t like passa, Black Lives Matter
But if a opp drops, I cannot feel remorse
It’s money, murder, and sexual intercourse
Big Smoke, I never play the victim
Money hangin’ on my neck, tryna bring my niggas in (Try)
‘Cause it’s a cut-throat world that we livin’ in (One)
Still, if I had to pick a side, I pick the gang side (Greaze)
Check the scoreboard, they’re losin’ by a landslide
See them hatin’ on me and I understand why (Why?)
They know my name in every city, this a franchise
Talk shit, jump ship, watch it capsize
Money on your skin fade, that’s a flat line (Smoke)
We takin’ champagne showers, gettin’ baptized
Bring some more Dom Pérignon for the bad guy
[Chorus]
Got the girls, the cars, the money in the bank (Bank)
Keys to the house, whip bigger than a tank
So much ice, it’s a joke, don’t mistake it for a prank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a shank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a skeng (Ice)
You got bagged for a M, he didn’t even get a ten (Snitch)
Them boys snitchin’, man, they’re rattin’ on their friends (Brrt)
He’s a opp boy, can’t pattern up again (JAE5)
[Verse 2]
I made her laugh, now she calls me Prince Charming
I don’t care about the price, I’ll just put my card in (Swipe)
I’ll be fresher than your boyfriend inside the coffin
I was born cryin’, I’ma die laughin’
You ever seen a friend turn frenemy? (Huh?)
Grew up in the hood where all I see is jealousy (Brrt)
Brothers switched up on me ’cause I adjusted
I still love ’em but they can never be trusted (Greaze)
Yeah, I know you see what I just did
Came in a double-R, left in another car (Ice)
GQ, top-five, I’m a cover star
I ain’t gotta say names, you know who the bruddas are (Greaze)
Give ’em the green light, I can make a yout’ famous
Hear them talkin’ ’bout me like they’re newspapers
Who are they though? Who are you though?
We only talkin’ money in the studio (Go)
[Chorus]
Got the girls, the cars, the money in the bank (Bank)
Keys to the house, whip bigger than a tank
So much ice, it’s a joke, don’t mistake it for a prank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a shank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a skeng (Ice)
You got bagged for a M, he didn’t even get a ten (Snitch)
Them boys snitchin’, man, they’re rattin’ on their friends (Brrt)
He’s a opp boy, can’t pattern up again
Got the girls, the cars, the money in the bank (Woo)
Keys to the house, whip bigger than a tank
So much ice, it’s a joke, don’t mistake it for a prank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a shank (Ice)
When you’re lit like this, you might need to get a skeng (Ice)
You got bagged for a M, he didn’t even get a ten (Snitch)
Them boys snitchin’, man, they’re rattin’ on their friends (Brrt)
He’s a opp boy, can’t pattern up again (JAE5)
