[Dizzee Rascal] Everybody wants to be famous, Nobody wants to be nameless, aimless, People act shameless Tryna live like entertainers,
Want a fat crib with the acres, So they spend money that they ain´t made yet, Got a Benz on tick that they ain´t paid yet, Spend their paycheck In the west out on a weekend Got no money by the end of the weekend. But they don´t care cause their life is a movie, Starring Louis V, paid for by yours truly, Truthfully, it´s a joke, like a bad episode of hollyoaks, Can´t keep up with the cover notes, So they got bad credit livin´ on direct debit in debt They still don´t get it Cause they too busy livin´ the high life, the night life Huggin´ the high when livin´ it large And they all say
[Florence] Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough And things go wrong no matter what I do (That´s right) Now and then it seems like life is just too much But you´ve got the love I need to see me through
[Dizzee Rascal] Let me take you down to London city Where the attitude´s bad and the weather is shitty Everybody´s on a paper chase It´s one big rat race Everybody´s got a screw face So many two-faced, Checkin´ their high sayin´ they´re ready to ride
I´m on the inside looking at the So it´s an accurate reflection City wide, north, east, west and the southside Everywhere I go there´s a goon on the corner Guns and drugs cause the city´s like a sauna And it´s getting warmer, and out of order Tryna put a struggling mother to a mourner Mr. Politician can you tell me the solution What´s the answer, what´s the conclusion Is it an illusion, is it a mirage I see youngsters die because they tryna live large And they all say
[Florence] Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air I know I can count on all of you
Sometimes I feel like saying “Lord, I just don´t care” (That´s right, that´s right) But you´ve got the love I need to see me through (Check it, check it, come on, come on)
You got the love (Who´s got the love) You got the love (Who´s got the love) You got the love (That´s right, that´s right, that´s right) You got the love (Who´s got the love) You got the love (Who´s got the love) You got the love (Check it)
[Dizzee Rascal] We are living in the days of the credit crunch Give me the dough I´m tryna have a bunch But I can´t have rice for lunch It´s not there ain´t enough to share It ain´t fair never dreamed that he could be rare Who cares who dares to make a change Everybody´s in the club trying to make it rain But not for famine just for the sake of having 15 minutes of fame and everywhere´s the same Again and again I see the same thing Everybody acting like they play sailin´ But I see rough seas ahead maybe a recession And then a depression in whatever profession This is my confession I can´t front I’m in the forefront
Living for money ready to start like a bungee jump With no rope but I ain´t trying to see the bottom Because that´s where I came from, I ain´t forgotten,
[Florence] You got the love (Who´s got the love) You got the love You got the love (Who´s got the love) You got the love You got the love (That´s right, that´s right, that´s right, that´s right) You got the love You got the love
You got the love (Who´s got the love, who´s got the love, who´s got the love)
Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air I know I can count on all of you Sometimes I feel like saying “Lord, I just don´t care” But you´ve got the love I need to see me through
