    I grew up in the 1980's*
    In a 4-bedroom house
    My family, my Grandma,
    3 or 4 Aunties
    Uncles and Brothers
    In and out of prison daily
    At certain times when there was no heat
    We stay under covers
    There was life like u never seen
    Grandma taking extra people in
    Come dinner time It was tippin' 18
    Boil a big pot of water on the stove to take a bath
    Rub my face with Olive Oil
    All my mates used to laugh
    All my Cousin's moved out
    We all got divided
    As I started to get older I seen God providing
    I've seen £50 last 3 months solid
    I got my first pair of nikes we were still eating porridge
    Me and my cousin used to play Mel & Kim
    Practising dancin'
    Coming down the stairs and ting
    I touched Africa and came back darker
    Knowing myself
    Feeling my roots a little bit harder
    [Chorus: (2x)]
    1980 year that God made me
    89 I started to get by
    99 I started to write rhymes
    Walk with me reminice my life
    So then we moved up
    I thought I was the Fresh Prince
    Dynasty was re-runs and Dallas was faded
    With 3 beds this time and 6 kids
    We got a doggy that dog loved to ****
    My brother got his first pair of LA Gears
    He thought they were to take pictures of instead of wear
    I started hanging out and my jeans got tighter
    My weird neighbours set their own house on fire
    Church was All day every day and every week
    That's where I learned how to sing
    Hearing that pastor Preach
    Benediction was all we went for
    So we could run home and play connect 4
    Mum worked late and we learnt to cook
    Rice peas chicken and stew pea soup
    In the room watching Kung-Fu films
    And Cleopatra joans
    Wishing we were cosby kids and the match stick girls.
    [Repeat Chorus: (2x)]
    The man downstairs was dead for 3 weeks
    His own cat started eating him
    The house starts to wreak
    That's when we moved out
    And our house was bigger
    We had a large garage and the attic was killer
    We used to pray for 3 hours in the mornin'
    Sitting on the school bus
    Believe we was yawning
    All our hair was stuck down to our foreheads
    Jam curls, splits, dorags and pin curls yes
    ***y boys walking round showing interest
    In what I don't know cause we all had flat chests
    Don't think we never mastered the Kid n Play steps
    Doowop for days in the bogle yep
    But this is just the beginning of my life right,
    9 kids a house and one life time
    Yo, the beginning of my life right
    9 kids a house in one life time
    [Repeat Chorus: (2x)]
