Lyrics
Intro
Yeah! (Oi!)
Mk logic β you thought we forgot?
Never! Nah! Brap! Brap!
Chorus
Turn the bass up, time to send them packing
North London's red when the trophy's cracking
All that talk and all that noise
Gunners running this, come hear the voice
Post-Chorus
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Verse 1
Tottenham, what have you won? Nothing at all
Empty trophy shelf, still crying for son
Built a nice stadium just to finish sixth
Arteta came in, fixed the whole bricks
Man City, listen, your era is done
One hundred and fifteen charges, no fun
Pep packing bags, empire gonna fall
Gunners lift the biggest of all
Chorus
Turn the bass up, time to send them packing
North London's red when the trophy's cracking
All that talk and all that noise
Gunners running this, come hear the voice
Post-Chorus
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Bridge
No more noisy neighbors (Shh!)
No more state-fund-ed dominance (Done!)
North London is red, England is ours
Brap! Brap! Brap!
Drop
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Brap! Brap! Brap!
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Chorus
Turn the bass up, time to send them packing
North London's red when the trophy's cracking
All that talk and all that noise
Gunners running this, come hear the voice
Outro
Brap! Brap! Brap!
(Shh!)
Done.
Boom.
Verse 6
Okay, okay, let's do the roll call proper
Mk logic in the booth and I ain't gotta stop ya
Every single doubter had a lot to say
Now they're sitting silent on a Saturday
Where's the loudest mouth from the north of the river
Shivering and shaking like a wintertime shiver
I ain't gotta name names, you already know
Everybody eats quiet when the cannons blow
Pre-Chorus
So what you gonna say now? (Nothing!)
What you gonna do now? (Nothing!)
Whole town in my rearview
Brap, brap, we ain't through
Hook
Empty shelf, empty shelf, go and cry about it
Red flag, red flag, go and lie about it
We don't talk, we just win, that's the way it goes
Brap brap brap, everybody knows
Verse 7
Fourteen years of waiting on a parade
Now the whole borough's singing in the shade
Kids on the corner got the shirt on tight
Grandad in the window with a grin so wide
Told me keep it humble, told me keep it clean
But the rival got a mouth like a broken machine
I ain't got a trophy case, I got a whole street
Every single window with the red repeat
Bridge
(Oi!) Stand up if you're red and you know it
(Oi!) Stand up if you're red and you show it
(Oi!) Stand up if you're red and you know it
Brap brap β let the whole map know it
Verse 8
Epic like a poet with a bassline boom
Marching like a soldier to a brass-plated tune
Dark in the cut where the drums go dumb
West coast swagger with a London drum
I don't chase clout, I don't chase fame
I just chase the feeling when they call my name
Locked in the lab till the sun come up
Then I roll through the ends in a big black truck
Chorus
Turn the bass up, time to send them packing
North London's red when the trophy's cracking
All that talk and all that noise
Gunners running this, come hear the voice
Post-Chorus
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Verse 9
Ten men deep and we still don't fold
Cold in the rain and we still strike gold
Every single hater got a front-row seat
Watching us lift it while they grind their teeth
I ain't got a chain, I got a medal instead
City on my chest and a dream in my head
You can keep the noise, I'll keep the crown
Brap brap brap while the walls come down
Drop
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Brap! Brap! Brap!
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Brap! Brap! Brap!
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Verse 10
Final lap, final bar, final word on the beat
Every rival in the league getting swept off the street
I ain't perfect, I ain't polished, I'm a product of the grime
But I put in every hour, put in every single rhyme
So when the whistle blows and the stadium erupts
You can bet the whole of England knows exactly what's up
Red on the map from the north to the south
Brap brap brap coming out my mouth
Outro
Brap! Brap! Brap!
(Oi!) (Oi!)
No more quiet nights, no more empty shelves
(Shh!)
We did it ourselves, we did it ourselves
(We did it!)
North London forever, England is ours
Brap! Brap! Brap!
Verse 11
Came back from the dead like a rerun
Whole ends know my name when the beat come
They was praying on my downfall quietly
Now they scrolling past my face with a smile, see
I ain't vengeful, I just keep receipts
Every doubter got a seat in the cheap seats
Told my brother hold the line, hold it steady
When the cannons get to roaring, they ain't ready
Pre-Chorus
Who gon' stop us? (Nobody!)
Who gon' top us? (Nobody!)
North side to the south side
Brap brap, we alive
Hook
Big talk, small talk, we don't entertain it
Red wall, red wall, go and try to change it
We don't flinch, we don't fold, that's the way it goes
Brap brap brap, everybody knows
Verse 12
Epic like a saga carved in old stone
Drums hit like a battalion on the road
Bass so low that it rattles your ribcage
Every bar a monument, turn the page
Dark in the alley where the shadows get long
Brass horns blaring like a victory song
West coast bounce with a London accent
Every single line is a heavyweight sentence
Bridge
(Oi!) Hands up if you never switched sides
(Oi!) Hands up if you rode through the tides
(Oi!) Hands up if you never switched sides
Brap brap β let the whole world ride
Verse 13
Ten summers deep and I'm still in the grind
Every scar on my back is a lesson in time
They was throwing shade when I slept on the couch
Now the same ones begging for a verse from my mouth
I don't do it for the clout, do it for the block
Do it for the kid that was staring at the clock
Waiting on a moment that would never arrive
Now I'm standing in the middle of a stadium, alive
Chorus
Turn the bass up, time to send them packing
North London's red when the trophy's cracking
All that talk and all that noise
Gunners running this, come hear the voice
Post-Chorus
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Verse 14
Military march when I step on the stage
Every word a soldier, every line a wage
They was sleeping on the throne, I was sharpening steel
Now the whole league feeling what I finally feel
Ain't a rapper, ain't a poet, I'm a movement in shoes
Every bar a brick, I'm laying down the whole news
Dark trap rhythm got the floorboards jumping
Every single heartbeat in the room going thumping
Drop
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Brap! Brap! Brap!
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Brap! Brap! Brap!
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Verse 15
Call me on a Monday, I'll be in the booth
Call me on a Sunday, I'll be telling the truth
Ain't no fabricated story, ain't no fake flex
Every single line is a muscle, every single context
Gangsta lean but my heart in the right place
Raised on the block where they never showed a kind face
So I built my own family out of rhythm and rhyme
And I turned a whole city into one big sign
Pre-Chorus
So what you gonna say now? (Nothing!)
What you gonna do now? (Nothing!)
Whole world in my rearview
Brap, brap, we ain't through
Verse 16
Standing on the shoulders of the ones before
Every single legend that they tried to ignore
I ain't here for the clout, here to carry the flame
Every single borough gonna echo my name
From the estates to the terraces, hear the roar
Every single window with a red on the door
I ain't asking permission, ain't knocking, I'm in
Brap brap brap β let the legacy begin
Bridge
(Oi!) Stand up if you're red and you know it
(Oi!) Stand up if you're red and you show it
(Oi!) Stand up if you're red and you know it
Brap brap β let the whole map know it
Verse 17
Epic like a war drum beaten at dawn
Brass horns echo till the early morn
Dark trap kick got the whole room shaking
Every single silence is a wall I'm breaking
West coast groove with a London bite
Every single bar is a heavyweight fight
They was counting me out like a faded trend
Now I'm back on the throne, ain't no pretend
Chorus
Turn the bass up, time to send them
