Chicken shops with £2 tops

We're roaming but can't get enough

Eating sunshine everyday

Accustomed to our South East way

Cruising in the rainy streets

Smoking cigarettes like sweets

Creamy legs in London air

Our hands are up but we still care

The blades don't turn

But you see them from miles and miles

And you learn

That over here we hide our grief behind smiles

And we run around and laugh cos' that's our style

Oh we know

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

Girls can dream, still no

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute, ye

(It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute)

(It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute)

Tommy, Shaq, Nathan and Mo

Mum why ain't my brother home?

Cradled by a dozen flowers

The streets just took another child

Ain't it strange that my home

Had closed before it ever opened

Don't you know

That over here we hide our grief behind smiles

And we run around and laugh 'cause that's our style

Oh we know

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

Girls can dream, still no

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

There's pain outside

There's pain in the art

No time for the worst in me

Remember finding the email

From the penitentiary that locked up Tariq

They don't have control on us

No, they don't have control on we

They can steal all of our space

But if we ain't there then it's cheap

Oh we know

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute

Girls can dream, still no

It's not about where we're living

Make the most for a minute
