RICOCHET
- It's five-thirty when my brother rang my phone
- Woke me up when I was dozing in my slumberland at home
- And I was half hanging off the bed in a daze
- For cess peddlers
- On night is when a bredda gets paid
- Yo! I'm jumping up now
- Heading for the shower
- Have to buck-up on a bredrin
- So I'm stepping in an hour
- Always run late
- I'm supposed to meet Sherice at her mum's place
- I better bell her and tell her, "Don't wait at the front gate"
- I done say that maybe I can cook her dinner
- Everytime she look a winner, so I'd love to jook up in her
- Like Arthur Daley, part of shady affairs
- I'm and down and undercover, deeper than Australian brare
- When I was young I used to bun sativa
- Now the one procedure I run, fund my money fever
- It's nearly seven when my bredrin-I linked-up
- He told me that his baby-mother's dreading his drink-up
- Could I pass through?
- Yeah, Sherice I could ask too
- I stopped off at the shop because I forgot the pot of Ragu
- I'm back at yard now
- Seasoning the chicken, on the run from one-to-one
- It keep on beeping in the kitchen
- House phone ringing
- Spilling the paprika
- Damn, I should've rang for pizza
- And now I've lost the digis and, there ain't no baggies either
- I can't forget about Sherice, I better call so I can speech her
- [Hello, yeah Sherice. It's me
- Don't start-please
- Alright? I'm just doing my best
- Nine PM, I'll be there. I promise, yeah?
- Okay, holla at you later]
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- It troubles the feds when everytime I double my bread.
- It's ten-twenty when my ex text me
- I nearly dropped my bottle of Beck's
- It said: "Redz, check me."
- She need a draw because the evening before
- She done a stupid ting
- Her mother found her cess while she was hoovering
- Now it's emergency!
- I should be out there selling herbal leaf
- I thought for a second then it occurred to me
- I should've picked up Sherice at nine PM
- But, I was bagging up the rest of the cess til five-to-ten
- One eye on the clock like ...
- One eye on the pot
- Boy. I could do with Granny's advice
- Now I get whatever's left in my cess sack
- Should keep the twenty pockets on my black money vest packed
- It's time to duss, I leave the saucepan on low heat
- Feds are everywhere, I'm moving caution on Old Street
- I need to get the ess that I've paid for
- Stashed it in a three piece suite by the flats
- On the twenty-eigth floor
- ... the tower block
- Park in the street and look around for cops
- Slide a knife and ninety pound down my socks
- Inside the lift there's no reception on my phone
- So, Sherice can't be stressing and vexing me when she phones
- Set in the zone, mentally
- Checking the smoke pedigree
- My bredrin said that after two tokes
- He chokes heavily
- Fully loaded in my Rover 200
- I keep the road flooded
- And always roll cold-blooded
- Mad Runningz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- It troubles the feds when everytime I double my bread.
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- It troubles the feds when everytime I double my bread
- My first drop is for this guy called Pat Clarke
- Who always buys on tick because, he's tight like a gnat's arse
- Knock on your door, you open up
- "I've got your draw. You better let me in
- Don't tell me about your bruck pocket poor."
- -"You can take the TV, the fridge even the blender!"
- "You fool! Don't you remember?
- I took them all last November
- I swear, you better be paying me for this herb of mine
- Or else I'm coming back with matches, petrol and Turpentine."
- I'm off to make a nifty kind of nippy
- So I drive quickly
- See two guys fighting by the chippy
- This is where I find Vinnie
- My main customer in Stokey
- On road you'll see him puffing on a rollie
- "Sorry mate, I've already got two ounces of green on me
- But check my friend Len at the Bounces Road B&B."
- For f*ck sake! It's 'nough late, and after eleven
- Sherice is on the caller I.D., disaster is heading
- I've heard her on the verge of cursing on my voicemail
- And saying how I should turn to the church and avoid jail
- As a lickle boy me remember, Uncle Roy's tales
- "Never let a b*tch, in your biz. It destroys sales.
- Anyway!
- I pull up around the side of this maisonette
- Switching off the tape cassette
- That was pumping Sway & Tech
- Got out, bopped to the door
- Rang on the bell
- This ain't no lay-lay
- When I've got X amount of grams to sell
- Landlady let me in and told me Len was waiting in the basement
- I saw him pacing up and down, impatient
- An ounce is all I have left
- He's from Liverpool
- With every syllable I smelt his bad breath
- "Let's make a deal, take the ess and one-thirty
- Shott at three Qs, double scores, the rest is your percy."
- He's waffling about how he always buys half-Bs
- And how all us Southeners and jugglers, are tight-arse thieves
- In London City all my prices are competitive
- You'll find me and my relatives only buy up the better shit
- Finally he's seen the coup
- And by this time I feel to leave him bruised
- For gwarning like he's Ebenezer Scrooge
- I check inside my sock for cash and the flick knife
- And on the wall I saw the clock flash and it's midnight
- Suddenly I've had a vision
- What the f*ck has happened in the kitchen?
- The chicken looking like a blackened pigeon
- F*ck it! I'm dying to be lighting up a spliff
- I'll have to buy Sherice something nice and pricey for her wrist
- But, outside I see my ride
- Spot a minor hitch
- The wheels are missing and it's sitting on a pile of bricks
- Aah..... Sh*t
- Hello? Yeah, I know the tim-
- Jus-, le-, Sherice!
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- It troubles the feds when everytime I double my bread
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- My name's Ricochet a.k.a. Juggla Redz
- It troubles the feds when everytime I double my bread
