Dizzee Rascal - Temptation lyrics

Gotta keep my head above water

Gotta stay head-strong, keep rolling on

No point getting caught in the hype is long

Like I don't know right from wrong

So I gotta be real

Nothing to prove, I'm still

Big in the hood, I feel

So in control, I'm chill

No one ain't knocking off Dill

So I stay top on the bill

I'm the main event, the headliner

Went from jungle DJ to rhymer

Never thought I would be the big timer

But I still par it like, yo, it's a minor

Cause I still rep my ends, still check my friends

Can I keep it up? I guess it all depends

If I can keep my mind right

Don't get tempted by the limelight

I think I'll be alright

Temptation leads like your naughty mate

The one that used to get you in bother

The one you can never bring yourself to hate

Can't avoid the temptation

But I know I gotta change my ways

And keep my nose clean, gotta fix up

Take a look at my life cause I ain't sixteen

And I ain't no boy, ain't no kid

The world ain't flat and the picture's big

Certain things that I gotta get rid

And a whole lot more that I gotta get with

So I gotta stay and roam on my own

Gotta move on, I can't stay at home

Cause I know what's there is all the same

Crack, cocaine and ghetto fame

Cold hard cash and a bit of a name

And I've see it all, so I need a change

Lost too many bredrens to the game

And you could say temptation's to blame

We used to be tight

Me and my naughty friends

Caused pure madness in the ends

I mean day and night

We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight

Smoking, drinking, joyriding

Drugs, thugs, not law-abiding

Reckless youngsters, no direction

No sign of correction

But then I switched it up, changed my ways

Got in the area like, "Oh my days"

But not my naughty friends, they're not fazed

Can't believe that this music pays

See no reason why we can't do

All the things that we've always done

Still in my heart I know that's just wrong

But it's hard to fight the temptation, son
