19th Floor

Headed back to where I started

Past the fireflies of Rizla burning bright

Lost the tower where my heart is

Cinema skylines that I don't recognise

Strip the life out of these streets

It's a daylight robbery

You'll never take the London out of me

I was raised by the river, nineteenth floor

We never got this high before

We were lost so long, look how far we've come

Down by the river, I remember where I belong

Ooh, I remember where I belong

Nothing same but nothing different

Hear the people cry concrete lullabies

I never thought I'd say I miss it

See it speaking when I walk

Don't test the waters

I was raised by the river, nineteenth floor

We never got this high before

We were lost so long, look how far we've come

Down by the river, I remember where I belong

Bopping down Walworth Road, bubblegum blow

Sliders and Sunday clothes

Doing like my Nani, 70s steez

Cardamom stain my teeth

I see the things you've seen

But you don't speak, you leave the traces

Like I picked up a parcel handed down through generations

Raised by the river, nineteenth floor

We never got this high before

We were lost so long, look how far we've come

Down by the river, I remember where I belong

Ooh, I remember where I belong

Ooh, I remember where I belong
