Tick tock, tick tock
Five, four, three, two, one
It’s time to eat, dine like a beast
Transfer to London, now I live East
Go longer than week, higher than cheap
It’s a squid game, you die where you sleep
Bigger than petite, but in the pocket like deep
Won’t stop spitting to the fees just steep
Look, my time is not free
You’re on a countdown, like where’s my Just Eat?
I rhyme like pattern, bad M. Jackson
Won’t stop spitting ’til they all shout jack ’em
Ancestors passed me the baton
Pour little rum and let’s get this cracking
I’ll drag them and breath fire like dragons
Write platinum when a track needs waxing
If you’re not spitting with passion
You’ll be dealt with in the appropriate fashion
I’m late but fashionable (Tock)
Fly light international (Tick)
I’m unsurpassable (Tock)
Power on supernatural (Five)
Now time’s run out for you (Four)
I ain’t got nothing I need to prove (Three)
I hope you find your groove (Two)
Now it’s time to move
It’s your move, it’s best you remember
I stay hot like Charmander’s ember
Deplete your health like the government agenda
They killed Dr King, best remember
Best remember
I’m the one the gal dem best remember
More time, I’m a MC Ender
But a little drink will have us going on a whole new adventure
Your flows do do
I’ll take your soul, no voodoo
I’ve gotta catch them all like Mewtwo
Arms house to your mum’s house like zoom-zoom
Shaped by the trauma I grew through
No time if you’re gonna act brand-new
I’ll do it for the culture and the fam too
I’m down to share my bread like gang moves
(Tick)
I’m late but fashionable (Tock)
Fly light international (Tick)
I’m unsurpassable (Tock)
Power on supernatural (Five)
Now time’s run out for you (Four)
I ain’t got nothing I need to prove (Three)
I hope you find your groove (Two)
Now it’s time to move (One)
Been here for time
Been here for time
(Five)
Been here for time
I’ve been on the track for time (Four)
Been here for time
Best run, you haven’t got time (Three)
Been here for time
I’ve been on the track for time (Two)
Been here for time
Best run, you haven’t got time (One)
I’m late but fashionable (Tock)
Fly light international (Tick)
I’m unsurpassable (Tock)
Power on supernatural (Five)
Now time’s run out for you (Four)
I ain’t got nothing I need to prove (Three)
I hope you find your groove (Two)
Now it’s time to move
I’m late but fashionable (Tock)
Fly light international (Tick)
I’m unsurpassable (Tock)
Power on supernatural (Five)
Now time’s run out for you (Four)
I ain’t got nothing I need to prove (Three)
I hope you find your groove (Two)
Now it’s time to move
(Tick)
Drew the First (Tock)
Olly (Tick)
Countdown (Tock)
Now it’s time to move (Tick)
This is how we move (Tock)
Yo (Tick)
Here we go (Tock)
Now it’s time to move
(Zero)
