Lyrics
I used to listen to N. E, I still listen to N. E
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to Jendor, I still listen to Jendor
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to Narstie, I still listen to Narstie
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to OGz, I still listen to OGz
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
Yo, here’s a flashback
Little Dee in year 8 on flashback
Spraying with Essentials like that, fam
Back in our days, that was mad, fam
I was locked in, I was hacked, fam
See 'em next day overly gassed, fam
But how come you only sprayed once though
When they told me why I got mad, fam
Remedies been blockin' my dark
Not even let a man spray a few bars
What? Like rah, dickhead ting, I said you know a man’s hard
Chattin about your some Deptford boss
We’re the ones on the roadside, he’s not
F that, d’you know what?
Man don’t need them man there, watch
We gassed 'cause we be gettin' backed by N. E
He said has got a heart full of envy
To prove it man kicked out N. E
But it’s all good 'cause that’s when they made OGz
Him and Jendor serious
and the first from OGz Essentials, died the curse from OGz
But, big up Boy Better Know, for bringing us on radio
Rinse every week, remember them shows
Lovely for that 'gotta let them know
I couldn’t believe it when N. E passed
I see hopped out the car
Shank out, chase him up to his yard
Me forget? N.E.V.E.R, nah
I used to listen to Wiley, I still listen to Wiley
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to Dizzee, I still listen to Dizzee
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to Jme, I still listen to Jme
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to Skepta, I still listen to Skepta
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
Big up trust me and big up Ed Sheeran too
Our tune weren’t in an album that went number 1
But you brought me on stage with you
Rate that move
Not many would probably showcase or even give them one sample
The only others that brought me on the stage just like that were Skepta and
Example
My G Example, yo, let me give you lot an example
15 shows over 10k capacity and that’s just one rough example
Big boy like him didn’t treat me like a support act, neither did Skepta
He said «P, this is our tour bus»
I said «You sure, cuz?» He said «Yeah it’s yours fam»
«What support act? From both of our name to run me and your tour, fam»
I said «Cool, blud, I don’t forget them tings, not at all blud»
Big up my boy Sketch of course, blud
We ain’t blood brothers, but it’s all love
You’ve been there and done it all
You’ve taught me and I taught you
Mad respect for life, real talk, bruv
And big up Katie as well
What? You think I ain’t 'gonna big her up 'cause Katie’s a girl?
Her and Rinse done more for me than certain man that said they rate me as well
Forget that, there ain’t a bad man bone in my body, left that
The respect they’ve shown me has taught me to show the others the same respect
fam
I used to listen to Rinse, I still listen to Rinse
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to Roll Deep, I still listen to Roll Deep
Can’t forget the people that brought me

Can’t forget the things that they taught me
I used to listen to Footsie, I still listen to Footsie
Can’t forget the people that brought me
Can’t forget the things that they taught me
Sometimes you 'gotta big up
Let 'em know you’re a member
How you got here, who you worked with
Who you’ve done stuff with
Whether it’s family friends, artists, whatever out here
Life, music, your work, your job, whatever
You know what I mean?
It’s the realest thing, trust
Not forgetting is a gift, nah
