lyrics

Hull boys blaze Js on rainy days
Us Hull boys twagged class back in the day when we were bains
Hull boys likechip spice
Spice boys be the boys that Hull boys don't like
Hull bikes are known to give croggies
Hull birds got burns on their tights from rockies
Sorry, rough, rigid and rugged
Us Hull boys aren't nothing to fuck with
Can't be trusted, proper gutted when the patty drops
Hull boys blow the smoke that attracts the cops
Hull boys are trouble in a scuffle
No GBP, Hull boys know the struggle
Hull boys have been to The Deep
Seen Peter Levy on the TV
And been dragged round Prinny Quay by Hull Mums
Hull boys are the reason Hull birds
Are booling prams round Hull Fair
And the reason Hull toddlers learn to swear
Hull boys'll wait for late buses, as the rain gushes
And when they're back on the estate
They'll complain to their mates that hold the same grudges
Hull boys larked out when they were kids
Hull boys don't take shit
And most don't know Hull boys can spit

They never thought Hull boys could rap
Well then I guess they must have never heard this track
But I'm not them I'm the one who inspires
On all cylinders is how we fire

And I'm rambling, really I just got my life to gamble it
Now we're taking over it's a case of can I handle it?
Falling and I'm reaching now I'm guessing where the handle is
Floating out of space, I don't know where the planet is
In Hull City, to be fair, I'm barely managing
Dominate the underground and look at what the damage is
Populate the fans until they find out where your Nana lives
Used to spit my bars and now the crowd around just laugh at it
Down the line I got my shit together, had to practice it
Now I got the city screaming out about the fantasies
Paint me like the cavities, I work to get my city known
Work to give my son a better life, this ain't a sit and go
At the club they ask me for a picture though
Kinda broke, but I'm on my way to getting richer so
Praying that I make it out the longer that my kid is grown
Gotta do the city proud, gotta make the city known
Come, we mean business
Each of us can close our eyes and visualise riches
Know the road is harder but we're hit with hard scriptures
Struggling but hustling, I'm juggling priorities
Tryna push the dream from this position of my poverty
Kinda want my space but still the journey is an odyssey
Gave 'em an apology, avoiding any reason they can dog at me, an oddity
But I've just gotta stick to brutal honesty

They never thought Hull boys could rap
Well then I guess they must have never heard this track
But I'm not them I'm the one who inspires
On all cylinders is how we fire

I'm from Hull City, the Eastern part of it
The way the news put it you'd think we were scarred from it
Yeah there's some streets you wouldn't even leave a car on it
But do we live up to the rep that we've earned? Far from it
But Chiedu hit a million and gave us all hope
Then he got in the interview and said we was all dope
Him, Deez and Joe locked it down, no rope
It needs to happen for me, honestly I'm so broke
But when I make a cameo, the way I spit is hazardous
Just gimme four days, I'll resurrect that shit like Lazarus
I know who I am but still look like a tramp though
Give my shoulder Shrugz, cooking salmon with Sambo
I smile or Smurk, getting busy with Trizzy
Roll the Bud Fam and top it up with some crizzy
The track is getting costly and I'm just tryna blaze chronic
Zack is spitting frosty, it's time to throw Shadez on it
Provide the headknocks on stage while I sweat lots
Since age nine at Grassroots so I can't forget Redlocz
And peace to him and everyone at the Beats Bus
For showing kids the power of what hip-hop can teach us
It's real beautiful, I know that y'all can feel this
I'm still so happy from last year with Phelix
And me not grabbing the mic and attacking with my tongue
Is as likely as Lil Fog actually carrying a gun

They never thought Hull boys could rap
Well then I guess they must have never heard this track
But I'm not them I'm the one who inspires
On all cylinders is how we fire
