"Money And Power" lyrics

What would you do with money and power?
What-what-what would you do with money and...
What would you do with money and power? (Bap, bap, ugh)

I spit facts, I don't rap no cap
Get in the booth, it's nothing but shower
King of the Hill, gassed up like Hank
What would you do with money and power?
To get where I am, had to put in the hours
Brazen, why would I hide or cower?
High in the sky, like the Eiffel Tower
What would you do with money and power?
The life that I life not sweet, it's sour
I sip toss' and I bun down flour
I been in the stu' for more than an hour
The UK music scene, I devour
I don't rap beef, cook man like chowder
The folks hit dots, still dishin' out powder
I'm on the hunt, so I search and scour
What would you do with money and power?

When I needed a hand, they ran
Nobody helped me make this plan
Now it's in action, they want a fraction
But they weren't there when the route was jammed
The tings that I been through made me a man
When I never had no one, I had gang
I'm from a place that you won't understand
The hood that I'm from's for the lost and damned
Fill up the ride 'til the whole things crammed
The buck-bang's same size as my hand
They want me to act like I'm not from the ends
Wallah, getting nicked ain't part of the plan
I been outside so much, it stands
If you don't love this re', you can't hang
I never had much when I was growing up
So I give back any time that I can
If you're say that you're real, then show me
I don't like talking, I'm with the action
Stand on your word and don't be a phony
Come round 'ere and you're getting a sanction
If it ain't 'bout lacag, then it don't console me
Why would I waste time trivial chatting?
I'm in Sao Paulo, smokin' a stogy
I'm from Croydon and I made it happen

I spit facts, I don't rap no cap
Get in the booth, it's nothing but shower
King of the Hill, gassed up like Hank
What would you do with money and power?
To get where I am, had to put in the hours
Brazen, why would I hide or cower?
High in the sky, like the Eiffel Tower
What would you do with money and power?
The life that I life not sweet, it's sour
I sip toss' and I bun down flour
I been in the stu' for more than an hour
The UK music scene, I devour
I don't rap beef, cook man like chowder
The folks hit dots, still dishin' out powder
I'm on the hunt, so I search and scour
What would you do with money and power? (power)

What would you do with money and... (power)
What-what-what would you do with money and power?
What would you do with money and... (power)
What-what-what would you do with money and...
