Lyrics

[Intro: Stormin, Rude Kid]
Forget dying, dying’s a myth, I’m going to live, yeah?
Get me in that studio
I’m working my heart and soul
And put everything into it
Kid my brother, you are a don
That is gonna get murdered, mullahed, and squirtled
When are we gonna vocal? Let me know, I am ready
Actually just got off of at the plane
And heard the beat straight away
Just gassed me, over gassed
Are you ready?

[Verse 1: Ghetts]
Grew up in Plaist, grew up with Stormin
Help put the ends on the map, helped made Newham important
I was just 19 when I bust my gun in Club 19
And Stormin run
Showed me the blueprint, now I’m all over the music
Cah it coulda been so different
Coulda been Titch, coulda been no different
That’s my brudda too
We argue like bruddas do
I’m just talking the real, 15 years in, we ain’t talking appeals
If you got away with the same thing my brudda got 29 for, lucky you
Mandem fi know
When they hear me say Escobar, I mean Gavin Defoe
Before Chronik and Marcus had beef, that was actually bro
You don’t actually know
Plaistow, Stratford, and Bow
Leyton, Forest Gate, Hackney, and Stowe
Where catching a body’s like catching a cold
I pray death don’t come for me
But if it does, I’ll be in good company
That’s Sparks, that’s N.E, that’s Major Ace, and that’s Tubby T
I ain’t talking ’bout my favorite part of the movie when I say I love the scene
We can’t be stopped by death man (Death man, no, no, no)
Jaykae’s got the spirit of Depzman (Depzman)
And if anyone can make Cadet live forever, then Krept can
He loved CJ and them man
Next time I go to the mountain, I won’t come back til I resurrect man

[Interlude: Ghetts, Cadet]
Oh Rude Kid, Rude Kid, I think we got one, I think we got one
This is cold
I can picture standing on it now, I can picture us going mad on it

[Chorus: Ghetts]
Ghetto (Ghetto)
Day by day in the ghetto
Back in the day I had a friend called Stormin, and that’s who named me Ghetto
Ghetto (Ghetto)
Day by day in the ghetto
Back in the day I had a friend called Stormin, and that’s who named me Ghetto

[Post-Chorus: ?]
Legends don’t die
Tell ’em don’t cry
Although it might be painful (Painful)
Lost a friend and gained an angel (An angel)
My brudda wear a halo (Halo), halo (Halo)
Legends don’t die
Tell ’em don’t cry, yeah
Although it might be painful
Lost a friend and gained an angel, yeah (An angel)
My brudda wear a halo (Halo), halo

[Verse 2: Ghetts]
All the niggas I promised
Got me thinking of Wallace
Me and him go way back
Prison slippers and porridge
Sidewinder tape packs
Prison visits in Norwich
Brainless, I just played that
Didn’t like my verse ’cause you and Fix Dot’M were godded
I used to beg you to rap more
You wanna shoot everyone every time I end up in a rap war
I was like nah, it’s just music, I don’t wanna get blackballed
Even though I was underground, look what I done with the platform
In school, it was mind the gap jokes
Same boy dere, I made hide the trap phones
They ain’t got no spine now
I’ve analyzed their backbones
Once again, when you hear me say Escobar, I ain’t talking Pablo
I might not be here if it wasn’t for Stormin and man know
