Live Once (feat. Kano) by Plan B
Everything will be okay, yes it will, come tomorrow,
We gonna see better days, no more sorrow
(Unknown)
This is for the ones in the slums I'll be saying what's up,
You aint got to be afraid no more, what the fuck
Why you walking with your head down low pick it up,
Pick it up,
You only live once
(Verse 1: Plan B)
And you can be anything you wanna be,
There aint nothin stoppin' you just like there weren't no stopping me,
I'm from the east end with peeps, used to speak cockney
Now its multicultural no one speaks properly
Rhyming slang was invited on the docks to put a block on police
Now the docks aint there and no one cares cus they shottin' B
But still talking code like morse, it aint no mock-ny,
But educated people still see it as a mockery,
That's why they use our slang against us to be derogatory,
We just fuel the fire with our thugged out philosophies,
Like crimes the only way were gonna feed of this economy,
Revert to type, like these self fulfilling prophecies
But we aint no different from them, honestly
Lucks the only reason they werent born into poverty
So never be afraid to say whats in your heart, follow your dreams
Or wanna be somin' that they say you can't cus i promise G
Everything will be okay
Yes it will, come tomorrow
We gonna see better days
No more sorrow
(Verse 2: Kano)
Dont make me get llamatic on them
Talking about them cats and robbers
Hustlin' them 16s I guess I'm still trapping on them
Rolex watch and I still ain't got no bachelor honours
Man was from the Ends on influenced from its fragments and shelters
Still we didn't throw no hats in the air
My man was in the studio with hats and them snares
Who thought we would have made it to the BAFTAs this year?
When man was just a pickney with daks and im here
So, anyway, im on a shine, moved from the crime
The only thing thats good about the hood is that we're colour blind
Common goal, common enemy, economise
And still personify a nigger trying not to live a common life
