[Intro]
Uh, for the ends boy, yeah
MK, Baby Blue, Ghetto fab y'all
[Verse 1: Doc Brown]
Every day is just the same old thing, on my ends
Blood I'm talking 'bout Willesden, NW10
Harlesden, Neasden, Kilburn, yeah thats the ends see
Dollis Hill, Cricklewood, big up to Wembley
Brent, thats the thorough borough Feds running under cover
Men that are hustlers and Gs but still they love their mother
And thats the best that they could do to be nice
Despite that, right, theres still a tight community vibe
Yo ain't no one out here new to the life
Dudes shooting at white, brown or green
All to you for a price
Even though most conduct their businesses peacefully
There's always a small percentage that be needing the heat
That's a never ending cycle that turn, you can't stop it
But my neighbourhood isn't all doom and gloom, far from it
Born and raised round streets, cars and trains
Northwest life looking back I can't complain, eyo
[Hook: Doc Brown]
On my ends
Caucasian, Jamaican, Asian respect see
On my ends
Bredders ain't hanging out where the feds be
On my ends
Yes im talking bout' North-West see you get me
Im always on the ends, so come and check me
[Verse 2: Doc Brown]
On my ends, the streets be full of Aussies and Kiwis
But, back in the seventies, blood, it wasn't that easy
Whites didn't care what the black man stand for
Irish were the only ones happy to play landlord
Cos' they were the blacks before us
So raise a glass to the emerald isle when I'm rapping my chorus
And plus there ain't no way of forgetting the Bangladeshis
Been repping the ends for years, true North-West vetties
The right wing, BNP I know were scaring ya'
Cos' we're the UK's most multicultural area
The girls here are criss and every summer is fun
You could meet every single culture under the sun
A hundred and fifty languages, twenty five different skin tones
Hip Hop still the most popular type of ringtone
(Trust), I've been golden touched for haircuts
Still it's KD's takeaway, yamming up bare munch, what
[Hook: Doc Brown]
[Verse 3: Doc Brown]
On my ends, see the history of black music's stronger
Home of mean fiddler, home of Jive Zomba
Luc Skyz and Drastic, Common ground and that click
Reinforced records, diamond soul, now back it
And you know I needed to mention Geneva convention
The Skrilla Kids, massacring trife
Other rappers like too much, two in a mil
MK, super T and anyone else making music thats real
Yeah were still here setting the trends
Still checking for friends and of course still repping the ends
See the high grade blazed from ciphers upon the corners
And theres none for stopping even though coppers already warned us
On the back of the 266
There banging out a beat on the chair while the crew just spits
And it was all about nights like this
Experiencing the essence of North-West inspired rhymes like this, eyo
[Hook x2: Doc Brown]
[Outro]
Uh, yeah, come check me
Doc Brown, Citizen Smith, Doc*ment LP coming soon blood
