"South East London" lyrics

"South East London"
(from "Blue Story" soundtrack)

Drivin' in my car like, mm
I don't wanna see you, yeah
Driving 'round your ends like nah
Man, I shouldn't be around here
Shouldn't be 'round
When I'm in
When I'm in South East
I shouldn't be here
I know, yeah
Ah

When in South East London
I was so convinced that you were dead to me (Uh)
'Til I drove down a high street
Now I can't stop seeing all these memories (Uh)
When in South East London
Drive past your house I see the lights on
I shouldn't be listening to sad songs
All the things we did are coming back to me (Um)

There goes the bar that we first met in and goddamn, we smoked a couple zoots then we zoned in the Blue Planet, ah
I hate that I do miss yah
18 young, dreaming everything is sick
In a couple years on, seeing your shit and I'm sick of it, ooh
I hate that I do...

When in South East London
I was so convinced that you were dead to me (Uh)
'Til I drove down a high street
Now I can't stop seeing all these memories (Uh)
When in South East London
Drive past your house I see the lights on
I shouldn't be listening to sad songs
All the things we did are coming back to me (Yeah, yeah)

Oh shit
I need to get the fuck out of here quick
Sometimes I wish that you didn't exist
Sometimes I wish that you didn't exist
Sometimes I wish that you would just admit
It was on you, not just something I did
Blue lights are flooding the streets where you live
I need to get out of South East London
Shit, skrrt

Hmm, oh, yeah
Oh, oh
I'm never thinking of you
Until I rode through your ends, G
I bet you think of me too
Oh no
I'm never thinking of you
Until I rode through your ends, G
I bet you think of me too, ah

When in South East London
I was so convinced that you were dead to me (Uh)
'Til I drove down a high street
Now I can't stop seeing all these memories (Uh)
When in South East London
Drive past your house I see the lights on
I shouldn't be listening to sad songs
All the things we did are coming back to me

When in South East
Oh, when in South East
Oh, when in South East
When in South East, London baby
Um, when in South East
Yeah, when in South East
Let me just write it out here, when in South East
London, yeah
When in South East London
Um, yeah
