I was born '89 Shola Ama made me
Head low so the boydem could never see me
Old bros leave town so they never see me
Now my neighbourhood don't recognise me
Inna inna inna inna London inna London
Inna inna inna London
Inna inna inna London inna London
Inna inna inna lond inna inna inna
The spot on Portabello made the sickest Chinese
Now the one that's taken over makes the shittest Chinese
The new neighbours never figured this loud music pays me
Now there's banging on my door and it goes
I don't recognise my neighbours
I'm sure they don't know me either
They hardly ever say hi
And now the rent is getting hi
But I was born raised and grown here yeah yeah
Like Carnival I'm going nowhere yeah yeah
I was born '89 Shola Ama made me
Head low so the boydem could never see me
Old bros leave town so they never see me
Now my neighbourhood don't recognise me
Inna inna inna inna London inna London
Inna inna inna London
Inna inna inna London inna London
Inna inna inna lond inna inna inna
They would lock off grime raves claiming they incite beef
Now it's all over the place and we're like
I don't know who stole my lighter
Can't rave without my lighter
It makes a London boy so high
We rave in different shapes and size
You naughty gyal when you're well prepared yeah yeah
Like are you really really from the ends
I was born '89 Shola Ama made me
Head low so the boydem could never see me
Old bros leave town so they never see me
Now my neighbourhood don't recognise me
Inna inna inna inna London inna London
Inna inna inna London
Inna inna inna London inna London

Man was born up in Peckham on the gully Gloucester
Went to school with Spencer Mordecai and foster
Beenie man bounty killer biggie smalls and Busta
Every day in the jungle with the knuckle duster
Man had crack inside the basement
Man got slapped outside that pavement
R&B outside the station remember that spot
Now my block's all got replacements
Trendy spots in the jungle that's their banging venture
When they should build a youth club or a damn adventure
They don't give a f**k 'bout mandem
If they could they'd f**king ban them
Inna inna inna inna London inna London
Inna inna inna London
Inna inna inna London inna London
Inna inna inna London
Inna inna London
Inna inna London
