American Boy

(feat. Kanye West)

Just another one champion sound
Me and Estelle about to get down
Who the hottest in the world right now.
Just touched down in London town.
Bet they give me a pound.
Tell them put the money in my hand right now.
Tell the promoter we need more seats,
We just sold out all the floor seats

[Chorus: Estelle]
Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day.
Take me to New York, I’d love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my American Boy.

He said Hey Sister.
It’s really really nice to meet ya.
I just met this 5 foot 7 guys who’s just my type.
I like the way he’s speaking his confidence is peaking.
Don’t like his baggy jeans but I’m a like what’s underneath it.
And no I ain’t been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains and New York heart awaits. First let’s see the west end.
I’ll show you to my bridrens.
I’m like this American Boy. American Boy

[Chorus:]
Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day
Take me to New York, I’d love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my American Boy

Can we get away this weekend.
Take me to Broadway.
Let’s go shopping baby then we’ll go to a Cafe.
Let’s go on the subway.
Take me to your hood.
I neva been to Brooklyn and I’d like to see what’s good.
Dress in all your fancy clothes.
Sneaker’s looking Fresh to Def I’m lovin those Shell Toes.
Walkin that walk.
Talk that slick talk.
I’m likin this American Boy. American Boy.

[Chorus:]
Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day.
Take me to New York, I’d love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my American Boy

Let them kno wagwan blud

[Kanye West:]
Who killin em in the UK. Everybody gonna to say you K, reluctantly, because most of this press don’t f**k with me. Estelle once said to me, cool down down don’t act a fool now now. I always act a fool oww oww. Ain’t nothing new now now. He crazy, I know what ya thinkin. White Pino I know what you’re drinkin. Rap singer. Chain Blinger. Holla at the next chick soon as you’re blinkin. What’s you’re persona. about this American Brama. Am I shallow cause all my clothes designer. Dressed smart like a London Bloke. Before he speak his suit bespoke. And you thought he was cute before. Look at this P Coat, Tell me he’s broke. And I know you’re not into all that. I heard your lyrics I feel your spirit. But I still talk that CAAASH. Cause a lot wags want to hear it. And I’m feelin like Mike at his Baddest. The Pips at they Gladys. And I know they love it. so to hell with all that rubbish

[Estelle:]
Would you be my love, my love.
Could be mine would you be my love my love, could be mine
Could you be my love, my love.
Would you be my American Boy. American Boy

[Chorus:]
Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day
Take me to New York, I’d love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my American Boy

Specifically West Kendall
Now let me slow it down
A little bit so you can feel me

No kids thus far myself
I’m scared of the pain
I might not do well as a mom
Still the work gets done
Yes I worry bout bills
But a change gonna come
I wanna play rapper
Rock the bells
But I only gotta stack
For the little estelza
You don’t wanna know
Bout them days that go
I got pain overload
You don’t wanna know
About the things I know
I just can’t take no more
Most of the time
Though I gotta stay on
I gotta stay real
I gotta stay strong
You know I’m heavy
Cause I roll with gem
So I’m gonna be fresh
When the lights come on
Come on

Oh this is my song
I’m just like you
I gotta fight to stay strong
Just cause it clears
It don’t mean that it’s over
I’m a shine
While my lights on

More Than Friends

More Than Friends

Wonder why, wonder why, wonder why
Why must we pretend
Why can’t we be more than friends?
Let’s be more than friends.

What are you afraid of?
We’ve been playing games love
Together we crazy, good I mean baby, so why you gotta change up?
Baby when we make love, in ways I never made love
Feels so real, but something still is missing from the picture
Everywhere I go, people wanna know. wonder where I been, what’s the deal with him
Is y’all really cool, is he just a friend
Now I’m asking you, tell me what it is
Look me in my eye, you don’t have to lie
Must think I’m a fool, f**king round with you
Need to give me proof I need to hear the truth
I just got one question for you

[CHORUS:]
Wonder why, wonder why, wonder why
Why must we pretend
Why can’t we be more than friends?
Let’s be more than friends.

Wonder why, wonder why, wonder why
Why must we pretend
Why can’t we be more than friends?
Let’s be more than friends.

I think you see me as your play thing
Your Friday to Sunday thing
I’m not your weekend love, your secret f**k, brother I’m not playing
And if I wanted to be part time, I’d be working at the check-out line
At the liquor store, the picture show, let me give you piece of my mind

[RAP:]
Why don’t you put your arms around me huh?
Acting different when your friends around
See nah, when we together we fire and no I never tell my friends your a friend
You’re my guy we’re together uh huh
Calling my phone about we needed a break
How we gonna break up when we ain’t willing to date?
You say you want that real woman, when you get her you run
How come I never met the family like your dad and your mum?
And I don’t wanna hear it, stop being a bitch
You making me respect you less, I’m really starting to switch
You’re saying that and this and your heart broken
Yeah, you sound like shit like you’re taking a piss
Somebody wanna see ya chick, ya see the problem with dis is
I’m waiting in vain, I’m waiting for you to change
We ain’t kicking it No, we ain’t chilling NO, we ain’t doing a ting blood
I’m more like a full time thing
See fam you got your own sock drawer, you can call me much more
More then just your friend much, more than before
Don’t play me like an extra, I got speaking roles
I am NOT that ho, I am so much more

I wonder why

[CHORUS]

[Speaking:]
Don’t act like I’m tryna press you
It’s just you know
It’s obvious, it’s all there, like
What you waiting for
(why can’t we be more than friends, let’s be more than friends)
Stop pretending
(let’s be more than friends, let’s be more than friends)
You know we more than friends, you know it’s me and you

"1980"

"1980"


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 x2]
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 shit
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.

[Chorus x2]

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
Sexy boys walking round showing interest
In what i don't know coz 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

[Chorus x2]

"All Day Long (Blue Skies)"



Blue skies are lookin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies who I see
And there's bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long

People say I'm selfish
Yeah, they say I'm not the same
Yeah, they say your girl's changed
Don't ask me if I feel a thing

The ones who put the pennies down
Say we're never stayin' around
Busy at the bed we made
So what you think they're gonna say?

People keep on talkin', let them talk away
(Let them talk away)
Sometimes you gotta give up and let them say what they say
(Let them say what they say, what they say, what they say)

All I need is my God, nobody's bigger than He
So I say, go ahead, it's free publicity
(Go ahead, go ahead)

'Cause I got
Blue skies are lookin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies who I see
And there's bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long

Watch me as I close my ears
Hold this on the positive
Sittin' in a first class lounge
Take me up above the clouds

See I and everything I have
All will pat me on the back
Watchin' you, I keep around
'Cause they're the ones that keep me down

I was born on the out and this is why I go in
(This is why, this is why I work so hard)
I got too much to lose so I ain't stressin' one man)
(Ooh, I won't, I won't)

With the good comes the bad and then it turns to great
It's so far at the back, this is a vengeance, love swayed
(As a vengeance, love swayed)

That's why
Blue skies are lookin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies who I see
And there's bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long

"All Over Again"
(feat. Royston)



[Estelle: Speaking]
So I'm in love and I keep telling this guy and it's like he thinks I'm jokin every single time I tell him it's like
"Alright, OK. I love you to yea OK" and sometimes you know when you don't know what to do
and your heart is just exploding and you look at them and it's just like
So I sing it like:
Wake me up in the morning with a kiss and make me some breakfast
And in the evening a candlelight dinner
Or when I feel restless
Give me a soft massage and my neck starts to tingle
Even when we didn't have anything you still made me feel like your queen
Now crystal and their glass is clean
Sleeping on on the floor,
You know what I mean
And I love you because you hold me down
When the world thinks I'm brave you see my frown
I love to be loved like this and I love and I love your kiss
So thankful
Yeah this is all I was trying to say to you:

You make me fall in love again
And I am so glad you chose me yeah
You make me fall in love again
All over and over again

[Royston:]
Your like my angel
Perfect for me, that's all I ever wanted you to be
Understand when you said that you loved me
What kind of man would I be if I told you I loved you constantly
You probably wouldn't believe me because your frontin like you don't even need me
Still I just wanted to tell, wanted to tell
You are my wife, my lover, my sister, I'm your brother
I feel you
I just wanted to tell you

[Both:]
You make me fall in love again
And I am so glad you chose me yeah
You make me fall in love again
All over and over again

[Estelle:]
Lovin you is like the song that I am singing
Like the snow and the stars and the sun and the conditions
Take it lots like the northern lights
Seeing you bounce my heart like the candle lights
I feel different didn't think this was me
I'm seeing wisdom, didn't think that this could be
I wanna kiss him got me being super girly
Head swirilng all because the love ain't hurtin
Thinking he was worth it

[Both:]
You make me fall in love again
And I am so glad you chose me yeah
You make me fall in love again
All over and over again
[Repeat to fade]
