M.E.N III Lyrics by Bugzy Malone
Yo, it’s Bugzy Malone
Ay, see as soon as I got to the hospital
The nurses told me I’m lucky to be alive
Three weeks later I get a blood clot in my chest
The shit nearly killed me
But now I’m back
They don’t call me the king of the North for nothing
Watch this
Alright, so mummy used to sell herself
Drop couple rocks into a pipe and light it up
Think I didn’t come from Hell? My old bestie said my head’s gone
It must be mental health but I got killers in my family
‘Case you couldn’t tell and I didn’t wanna see them n*****
So I got it, hella stealth
And when I saw those idiots I told them by myself
That I don’t fear nobody
I still got opps that want me bodied
But them man are still living in a cell
And if I have to go back there, I swear I’m going in
I pray a lot these days in case I have to sin
I tell ’em till my mouth goes dry and I need a drink
I sleep well these days, I never miss a wink
And no I didn’t catch the virus though there’s pain in my chest
A court case coming, fuck fame for a sec’
I’m gonna have to stand and take judgement again
But I can look him in his eye, I have my baby to protect
Couple things I never said out loud, I just been living with it
I gotta speak out though it’s fucking with my spirit
A school-tie around my neck and hanging from the ceiling
He burst into the room, I was embarrassed when you seen me
So I put it to my wrist, and yeah, I slit it
Didn’t cut it deep though I gotta say I shit it
And mummy was a nitty
But when I heard she turned one of her customers into my dad
I gotta say, I really nearly did it
But I told myself I would never do anything silly
I told myself I’d take it out on n***** that fuck with me
And that’s why I never lost and that’s why I’m a boss
And that’s why I was the first one to rep my city
I got fake friends talking like I don’t show intelligence
Like I didn’t demonstrate due diligence
Man tellin’ me about my residence
Like I couldn’t give a green light and leave no evidence
Ah, place in the Louis
Waves under the doowie
Skeleton Cartier so I can see through it
See there’s levels to this British shit and me, I’m top tier
Any talk of me not being a legend stops here
When the car pulled up, I knew that we was crashin’
And at the point my life was meant to start flashing
I just blacked out, woke up on the concrete with feathers everywhere
The Moncler was ragged down, me, I had it mapped out
Now I got bleeding on the brain, the same shit that killed my cousin
I swear I miss Dane
Couple n***** turned out to be fake
But I’m too rich to argue these days so I just give it space
On the hospital bed, the morphine had me trippin’
Giggling at nothing, into reminiscing
Crashed doing 70 without wearing a helmet
Believe in God or not, there’s no denying a blessing
I was on the ward slowly healing
Lay on the bed and my chest was beating
The blood clot passed through my heart
And into my lungs and the pain was a deeper feeling
I shouted for the nurse, I could feel myself leaking
With a face full of sweat, could barely catch my breath
Even though I knew I was hanging by a thread
I told the nurse that there’s no way I’m dying on this bed
Fuck that
Now I’m supposed to feel weak?
For some reason now I feel like a wolverine
Like I smashed the side of the car up with my physique
And left a big boy dent in the concrete
They put me in the newspapers and magazines
You better recognise a legend when you catch a sneak peak
It’s not the first time I shed blood out on the street
But the way they taped it off, it was like a murder scene
Fucking Bugzy Malone, 2020
The fucking resurrection
Yeah
