Better Place (Forest Gate) Lyrics by Baseman

2017

(Baseman)
A fresh start thinking I should stay low
But it's when I moved to Forest Gate
Called it a new place home
Starting rapping think that I could be the new J Cole
But we were on the block posted up on Woodgrange Road
Tyrana make a living with my goones
I was with the low lives didn't go uni
Proved my potential you saw right through me
My money got longer my girls got boujee (Oh lawrd)
I remember taking trips to nowhere on that night bus
Fred Flintstone pebbling that white stuff (Trap)
My bro just had a son and he's feeling better now
I got my pencil drawing Sketches
Until they let him out (Free Sketch)
Like what do you think they call this place the gaza
You're not living how I'm living so how can you have the answers
Get to work and I'm tryana leave a legacy
Like if I go through my music they remember me
(Hook: Serena Soya)
Wading through muddy waters
Just to reach my high
And it's true, the grasses is greener
On the other side
(Snizzy)
Look, I was raised in a crazy ends (7th)
Where you gotta stay away from snakey friends (watch out)
And all these bad mind jakes, I swear the hate is immense
They don't wanna see us pull up in the latest benz
Now we pulling up in foreign joints
I'm from a place where them young boys are scoring points
Get nicked I was told to keep my lips shut
Shots getting busted everyday another mix up
I blow weed just to separate the stress
No rest for the wicked so for days I ain't slept
Round ere we are unruly
I never stayed in school, no teacher couldn't school me
I was out ere with them savages, rolling in a banger with
Putting in mean work, none of them could of manage it
I was raised in a gun town
Forest Gate that's a place you don't come round (Gaza)
(Hook: Serena Soya)
Wading through muddy waters
Just to reach my high
And it's true, the grasses is greener
On the other side
