[Verse 1]
Everybody wants to be famous
Nobody wants to be nameless, aimless
People act shameless
Trying 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 because 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 living on direct debit in debt
They still don't get it
Because they too busy living the high life, the night life
Hugging the high when living it large
And they all say
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
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
Checking their high saying 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 south-side
Everywhere I go there's a goon on the corner
Guns and drugs got the city like a sauna
And it's getting warmer, and out of order
Trying 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 evolution?, is it a mirage
I see youngsters die because they trying live large
And they all say
[Pre-Chorus]
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)
[Chorus]
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)
[Verse 2]
We are living in the days of the credit crunch
Give me the dough
I'm trying have a bunch
But I can't have rice for lunch
It's not there, isn't enough to share
It isn'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 every where's the same
Again and again I see the same thing
Everybody acting like they play sailing
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 am not trying to see the bottom
Because that's where I came from, I am not forgotten
[Chorus]
[Pre-Chorus]
