[00:10.00]Yeah, I was born in Stoke Newington, Stokey from old city
[00:13.00]Where concrete is over trees and all dreams get cut and bleed
[00:16.02]Walking free, when I was young I used to duck and weave
[00:18.58]Playing up in Clissold Park and laughing in that London breeze
[00:21.21]93, I was a three year old with many schemes
[00:23.74]Junior playing football skills of Arsenal just like they call me
[00:26.40]Sticker books remember wrestling the young'n takin' I was phased
[00:29.56]Used to idolize when he gave you a break-up
[00:31.92]I was in a nursery making story cakes, feeling love
[00:35.18]For the first time I remember days
[00:36.92]When I was bullied, beat up, then kicked and slapped away
[00:39.72]Clutching on the monkey bars and hoping they'd all go away
[00:42.29]Loved them city sounds and sirens in the dark at night
[00:44.90]Helicopters fly above my head, I'd never get afraid
[00:47.45]I loved them early days, living in that constant noise
[00:50.20]Bustle in my ear was like music to this little boy
[00:53.02]
[00:53.23]Sometimes we go and forget where we came from
[00:56.24]And we don't know
[00:58.27]Sometimes we go and forget where we came from
[01:01.57]And we don't know
[01:03.56]Sometimes we go and forget where we came from
[01:06.74]And we don't know
[01:09.28]Yeah, we don't know
[01:12.23]
[01:13.80]July 94, we packed up and closed the door
[01:16.59]Every note was now just some image I'm returning to
[01:19.02]What we left behind, my friends, my cousins, relatives
[01:21.78]My birthplace, my first taste of how to live and how to give
[01:24.05]Hackney down's playin' of memories
[01:27.03]Sittin' on the boat, crying that was all that’s meant to be
[01:29.55]I was scared of startin' school again; will some be all rude again?
[01:33.06]Beat me up and treat me like a fool again.
[01:35.11]
[01:37.51]Growin' up a outside and never settle quick
[01:40.45]when you're treated like a lump of sh*t
[01:42.98]Saying you were black and time to account for what you f*cking did
[01:45.51]But I never did nothing, told ‘em that so many times
[01:48.15]screamed out loud sayin' sh*t like they were right
[01:51.24]I hate that history, I hate that Union Jack
[01:53.63]I'll never speak for any man or any flag
[01:56.26]
[01:56.56]Sometimes we go and forget where we came from
[01:59.57]And we don't know
[02:01.60]Sometimes we go and forget where we came from
[02:04.86]And we don’t know
[02:06.94]Sometimes we go and forget where we came from
[02:10.22]And we don't know
[02:12.79]Yeah, we don't know
[02:15.68]
[02:16.93]Sittin' back, staring through the haze of that road on that beaten track
[02:22.50]Sittin' back, staring through the haze of that road on that beaten track
[02:27.50]It was like I'm in a beast of a lion and me peacefully dying
[02:30.62]But I had no friends I could ever rely on
[02:32.70]I was sittin' back, watchin' through the haze of that road on that beaten track
[02:36.36]But keeping that evil intact
[02:38.14]I put the beat to track
[02:39.76]Found freedom, found out
[02:40.90]I could be myself, and find my world through my roots back
[02:43.14]I never wanted to adapt or in fact take an action or an act
[02:46.57]That for years they told me "F*ck facts"
[02:49.39]Sometimes we go and forget where we came from
[02:52.61]And we don't know
