In The Fire

[Intro] I know I got religion I belong to the noisy crew (Heh, heh) You see, we shout when we get happy That's the way we Christian do Oh, have you been tried- [Verse 1: Fredo] Have you been tried in that fire? I heard bullets sing higher than Mariah in choir Spent a lot of time trappin', now I'm tryna retire But the shit runs in my blood and I'm the guy they require Yeah, these guns don't bring nothin' but prison and death, still All my niggas just admire the fire Bro squeeze and he miss, but we admire a trier Finessе kid, you can never lie to a liar But Frеd got the fire, I fire for days I gotta write them in my notes, they'll be ignitin' the page Grindin' on cold nights, puttin' light to the flame Now there's no flame that can melt the ice in my chain, yeah I really put the ice in rice for the 'caine Me and Santan, you won't see nothin' like this again That's my young boys again, on the glide with the flame I just really hope your block came with fire escapes [Verse 2: Meekz] Before my entrance, I took the fire exit Tried and tested, about twenty times arrested Two times guilty, no comment, I guess they guessed it Couple times bail, no forensics This a Deezy pendant, I don't need a necklace We stay protected and connected It's the energies I'm blessed with And now they watchin' like Netflix, had me doin' next shit Tryna get rich, but what's rich? Took more losses than Boris I sold more boxes than the post-office Twenty-one in jail, it turned me so solid Why you think my vision sick, I changed the game in my brain And sold robotics If you fell in my fire, you probably roast on it Heat up the stove and put hope on it Cah they don't care 'bout our lives, I put my soul on it I'm done tryna be somebody to some nobodies I'm bein' so honest, and they don't know porridge [Verse 3: Ghetts] Fire burnin' while I'm watchin', higher learnin' Guns bustin', tyres turnin', that's a Russian and a German (Yes) That's your phone ringin', you can hear the beep You won't be saved by the bell when you hear the screech And it's so deep, open, ocean There's man escapin' some shells they can barely see Me and bro raisin' hell, we gon' share the heat Then put us in the same cell, we gon' share the sleep Am I my brother's keeper? (It's deeper) I'm my brother's leader (Speaker) I'm the eldest The one who had to make a name so the bells ring So nobody would trouble my siblings in this whirlwind My older cousin wasn't known for nothin' Never had no one I could call, but I was holdin' somethin' I'm diggin' deep with this tool like I'm known for plumbin' Somethin' in your chest like it's Robitussin Word to arsonist, I burn all this I stood in front of all three dragons and heard "Dracarys" And now we're jumpin' out G-Wagons and murkin' parties Man are comin' out with these bangers and dirty dancin' Nobody puts baby in a corner I uplift my girl, like I'm Swayze in the water And if it's already written, maybe I'm the author So accustomed to the fire, I get shivers when I'm naked in the sauna How, many times have they mistaken me for Scorcher? I'm lookin' in the mirror, sayin' "Justin, just cool, nuh" Send Ghetts downstairs and tell them "Just bring me water" And tell Ghetts I put somethin' in the formula I'm focused, I don't need to burn the kush This is Moses speakin' to the burnin' bush I stood in front of the fire and learned to cook Finished my verse and never heard a hook [Verse 4: Giggs] Riskiest numbers, this jungle, stick through your youngers He's hungry, picked off the fungus Kept humble, slipped him a hundred Yeah, lived in a dungeon Those AirMax, which nigga stung them? Can't walk in my shoes, you could be riskin' a bunion The government's twisted I cover this shift to cover this Christmas Forget them old friends, I'm done with those bitches They colour-coded my brothers and sisters Run the rhythm, you're a brother, but you're running with them Try accusin' me of colourism Blinded 'cause you look at me with tunnel vision I was fallin', but I've gone and risen Is this nigga trusty or Sideshow Bob when he's creepin' on Krusty? Streets keep me tusslin', people disgust me Racist disease, that shit that disgust me Don't touch me, on the streets with the sweeper 'Cause the streets pretty dusty And I've always got love for genuine people that buss me Santan and the gang advisor, I'ma check him out, I'm a analyser She was callin' me an antagoniser Let me sanitise, where's the sanitiser? (Jheeze) Just flutter by, he said "Giggs can you handle this?" He said "Float like a butterfly" I bring truths, but they love a lie Plans, I'm the man you should run 'em by [Verse 5: Dave] Yeah, in the fire, been tried Affected the way I been wired inside You can hide or glide I could've been deported That's the definition of a "Fight-or-flight" You can type all you like I know about homeless Immigration, they took me from my mum's arms Fuck a gun charge, two swords, I'm a Ronin Błaszczykowski, I'm tryna score with the Polish Pain in my eyes, plans of me stayin' in the guide With a vision of this changin' my life Crime's on the rise, hate's on the rise Feel like everythin' but my mum's pay's on the rise "Did you come through?" that's the question Affording a burner was never man's problem Adoption, we couldn't find homes for the weapons By the station, we got poles, no election In the fire, been tested Before I had money, it was time I invested Nothin' changed, still time I invest in Watch-game delicate, Tutankhamun, there's money in skeletons All I gotta do is point, they're gonna sever his head And tell **** that we're better as friends Nights that I can't remember with some people I could never forget Casa Cruz, you could bet a Nusr-et Don't make me call a young gunner on the back of a ped Slappin' a lead, civilians grabbin' your friends There's chaos on the main road They called choppers and PEDs All because of some shit that you said I got killers with me (Killers with me) And they love me, they make a man's heart stop The shit you find horrifyin' gets laughed off I'm like Meekz, bro, I won't stop, can't stop Yeah, it's kinda different when the fire's what you start from [Bridge] Have you been in the fire, in the fire? (Cut!) Have you been tried in the fire? Oh (Yes!) Have you been tried in the fire? Oh (Yes!) Save me (Jesus!) Did you come through? Have you been in- [Outro: Nathan Tettey] Do your research, to travel Go and see, go and really see the corners of the world that, that are alien to you really do interest you And you know, 'cause in due process, then you’ll meet new people And then those people will tell you new stories Then you become a voice for the voiceless I mean, you should ask Daniel, really and truly, where he goes to find himself 'Cause I don't know anything, I'm just speculatin', umm More importantly for you and your family You then get to ask the questions and answer the questions About where you were made Like "Where you come from, where you're goin, London, Lagos, LA" The journey is the film
