Shutdown

Man's never been in Marquee when it's shutdown eh? Trusss me daddi

[Hook: Skepta]

When it's shutdown

That's not me and it's shutdown

Ring ring pussy, it's shutdown

Fashion week and it's shutdown

Went to the show sitting in the front row

In the black tracksuit and it's shutdown

Touch the road and it's shutdown

Boy Better Know when it's shutdown

[Verse 1: Skepta]

Yeah, take time

If a man wanna try me, no time

Usain Bolt when I run up on stage

I pick up the mic and it's reload time

Don't know your songs but they know mine

That's why I got gigs just like Joe Grind

After the show I be rolling mine

Don't care bout the no smoking sign

They try to steal my vision

This ain't a culture, it's my religion

God knows I don't wanna go prison

But if a man wanna try me, trust me, listen

Me and my Gs ain't scared of police

We don't listen to no politician

Everybody on the same mission

We don't care about your -isms and schisms

[Hook: Skepta]

Cause it's shutdown

That's not me and it's shutdown

Ring ring pussy, it's shutdown

Fashion week and it's shutdown

Went to the show sitting in the front row

In the black tracksuit and it's shutdown

Touch the road and it's shutdown

Boy Better Know when it's shutdown

[Verse 2: Skepta]

You wanna act like a G for the camera

You say you're Muslim, you say you're Rasta

Say you don't eat pork, don't eat pussy

Liar, you're just a actor

Blud, you're not on your deen

And if Selassie saw you he would say

"Blud take off the red gold and green"

Them man are soft just like ice cream

Seen? Start moving correctly

If you don't wanna upset me, you get me?

You tryna show me your Fendi

I told you before, this shit don't impress me

I bet I make you respect me

When you see the mandem are selling out Wembley

Roll deep in a blacked out Bentley

Pull up outside like "wah gwan sexy"

[Hook]

Yeah, and it's shutdown

That's not me and it's shutdown

Ring ring pussy, it's shutdown

Fashion week and it's shutdown

Went to the show sitting in the front row

In the black tracksuit and it's shutdown

Touch the road and it's shutdown

Boy Better Know when it's shutdown

[Skit]

A bunch of young men all dressed in black dancing extremely aggressively on stage, it made me feel so intimidated and it's just not what I expect to see on prime time TV

[Verse 3: Skepta]

I'm in a different class

When I get through I'mma bring my dargs

2 by 2, man a walk on the ark

Sittin' at the front, just like Rosa Parks

Trust me, you don't wanna see me get dark

Upset cause man are way up right now

And the shit happened all so fast

I was in Paris, shut down l'Arc

New York, shut down Central Park

Talk about London, yo Frisco where shall I start?

Walked in, spat ten 16 bars

And each and every one of them came from the heart

None of my lyrics are stolen

"Go on then, go on then", that's my slogan

Wanna know how I did it with no label

No A-list songs, and I told them

[Hook]

Blud, I just shutdown

That's not me and it's shutdown

Ring ring pussy, it's shutdown

Fashion week and it's shutdown

Went to the show sitting in the front row

In the black tracksuit and it's shutdown

Touch the road and it's shutdown

Boy Better Know when it's shutdown

[Outro: Drake]

Link up Daddy

Yo tomorrow I'm gonna come scoop you, we'll go to Biz's

Yeah for sure

All right

Dun know
