[Intro - Dizzee Rascal]
Lay back
Still Live-O
Get me (tryin to do my thing man)
Clear
(real round` here)
Get me wagwan
Uh
Roll Deep alive
Uh
Live-O
Look, yo
[Verse 1]
I`m just sittin` here, I ain`t sayin` much I just think
My eyes don`t move left or right, they just blink
I think too deep and I think too long
Plus I think I`m getting weak
Cause my thoughts are too strong
I`m just sittin` here, I ain`t sayin` much I just gaze
I`m looking into space while my CD plays
I gaze quite a lot, in fact I gaze always
And if I blaze, then I`ll just, gaze away my days
[Chorus 1]
Cause it`s the same old story, shutters, runners, cats and money stacks
It`s the same old story, ninja bikes, gun fights and scary nights
It`s the same old story, window tints and gloves for finger prints
Yeah it`s the same old story, police investigate, now the area`s bait
Cause it was only yesterday, we was playin` football in the street
It was only yesterday, none of us could ever come to harm
It was only yesterday, life was a touch more sweet
Now I`m sittin` here thinking wagwan, wagwan, wagwan
[Verse 2]
I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Look, yo, I`m just sittin` here, I ain`t sayin` much I just watch
I really don`t feel like moving so I crouch
I watch all around, I watch every detail
I watch so hard I`m scared my eyes might fail
I`m just sittin` here, I ain`t sayin` much I just smile
It`s funny cause I haven`t bust a smile for a while
I`ll smile for a minute and I`m smiling an hour
I`m scared cause it`s sweet but it could turn sour
[Chorus 2]
Cause it`s the same old story, chung intelligent yaps in hospie flats
It`s the same old story, benefit claims and checks in false names
It`s the same old story, students truant learn the streets fluent
It`s the same old story, strange, there`s no sign of positive change
Cause it was only yesterday, we was standin` firmly on our feet
It was only yesterday, girls were innocent, they kept us calm
It was only yesterday, there was less bobbies on the beat
Now I`m sittin` here thinking wagwan, wagwan, wagwan
[Verse 3]
I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here, I ain`t sayin` much, I`m just vexed (shame)
I see a lot of bullshit, I wonder what`s next
I`m vexed at humanity, vexed at the earth
I keep gettin` vexed, till I think, what`s the worth?
I`m just sittin` here, I ain`t sayin` much, I feel to cry
I`m sittin` here depressed and I, don`t know why
I try to pull myself together, told myself, Fix Up
And I keep myself from bawlin` but my eyes, they erupt
[Chorus 3]
Cause it`s the same old story, crazy boys keep gettin` on my nerves
It`s the same old story, police don`t give me no peace
It`s the same old story, friends slowly driftin` from the ends
It`s the same old story, I`m sussed, there`s nobody I can trust
Cause it was only yesterday, after school we`d come outside and meet
It was only yesterday, it was all love back then
It was only yesterday, every sunny day was a treat
Now I`m sittin` here thinking wagwan, wagwan, wagwan
[Outro]
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
Yo, I`m just sittin` here
