Patiently Waiting

Ho-Ho-Ho-Ho-Ho-Ho-Homerton

I was patiently waiting to start my spitting
Before that I was in C-Town beefing
My true boy's there, were there at the right time
They were backing a beef that wasn't even mine

I took the beef, made it mine
Dynamite, General, Creeper, Spy
It was an eye for an eye, back for a back
We were outnumbered but we still held it up

Still fought back
Still gave the back chat
Some of them got a quick
Yeah, back slap
And I thank my boys for being there
'Cause I was patiently waiting to start my spitting

I was patently waiting to start my spitting
Now I'm here
I ain't letting no one move me
I'm a dominant boy
I keep moving, I'm a Homerton boy
Never lost one beef
Homerton boy never got chiefed

'Cause I was patently waiting to start my spitting
Now I'm here
I ain't letting no one move me
I'm a dominant boy
I keep moving, I'm a Homerton boy
Never lost one beef
Homerton boy never got chiefed

Cobena said
That he wanted to make a crew
Called it Dusty Time
And said, "It's your time
To show the world your rhyme
To show the world your flow
Time to make your dough
Come, let's go"

Took a couple of months
Took a couple of days, but dammit boy
You can see that we got it done
Back then I spat with young disciple

Lady Lykez and James were both my rivals
Drama, Dark boy held the title
One phone call and they bought the Arsenal

Portuguese speakers but not from Man U United
Like José Mourinho
Portuguese mafia were a bit loco, shit
You better move pronto

You don't know, when they came around you better move
Where you're from, though, when I came around I knew them all

You don't know though?
Raised in Hackney, went to school
You don't know though?
Moved to Newham, learnt the rules

I was patently waiting to start my spitting
Now I'm here
I ain't letting no one move me
I'm a dominant boy
I keep moving, I'm a Homerton boy
Never lost one beef
Homerton boy never got chiefed

'Cause I was patently waiting to start my spitting
Now I'm here
I ain't letting no one move me
I'm a dominant boy
I keep moving, I am a Homerton boy
Never lost one beef
Homerton boy never got chiefed

Beckton was Foggy
A boy called Froggy
Heart was cold and his boy called Frosty
I stayed in the background

I couldn't see clearly
That's when I realised I was Dusty
Music bled in me but it was rusty
Beef kept following, the road was risky

Like Scratchy
Flow in to the rhythm
Like an athlete
You didn't know that I can spit
So nicely

Got some dough, now I'm looking icy
Believe me, some of the haters are tryna
Find me, can't see me
Some of the haters are tryna fight me
You're dizzy, don't you know that I am a rascal?
Don't you know that I went to
A rough school?

But I was no fool
Too many men tryna draw for the tool
You intolerant fool

I was patiently waiting to start my spitting
Before that I was in C-Town beefing
My true boy's there, were there at the right time
They were backing a beef that wasn't even mine

I took the beef, made it mine
Dynamite, General, Creeper, Spy
It was an eye for an eye, back for a back
We were outnumbered but still held it up

I was patently waiting to start my spitting
Now I'm here
I ain't letting no one move me
I'm a dominant boy
I keep moving, I'm a Homerton boy
Never lost one beef
Homerton boy never got chiefed

'Cause I was patently waiting to start my spitting
Now I'm here
I ain't letting no one move me
I'm a dominant boy
I keep moving, I'm a Homerton boy
Never lost one beef
Homerton boy never got chiefed
