(Intro)
(Cold 808s, hi-hats ticking)
Yeah
StansX
Night shift settings
(Hook)
Lifestyle mad, it’s a night shift ting,
Late night grind while the phone line ping,
From the ends where the blue lights spin,
Now it’s big boy steps when I step right in.
Cold heart mode, no feelings shown,
Built my wave, did it all on my own,
From a cracked-up flat to a mic and a throne,
Now the whole block gas when they hear that tone.
(Verse 1)
Used to bus that train with a Oyster tap,
Head full stress, no time for chat,
Same old creps, same old trap,
Now it’s fresh trim glow when I snap that cap.
Lifestyle gritty, we live it fast,
See fake love, I just let it pass,
I’ve seen good boys turn outlaw quick,
When the rent due soon and the pay don’t last.
Rain on my Nike Tech,
Heart on freeze but I show no stress,
I learned young don’t overshare,
Keep moves quiet, don’t oversell.
Mandem talk ‘bout smoke and hype,
I talk growth and levels in life,
Flip that loss into bigger price,
Now the stage lights flash when I touch that mic.
(Hook)
Lifestyle mad, it’s a night shift ting,
Late night grind while the phone line ping,
From the ends where the blue lights spin,
Now it’s headline slots when the crowd sing.
Cold heart mode, no feelings shown,
Came up clean, no silver spoon,
From a long dark road with a cracked iPhone,
Now it’s penthouse dreams in a different zone.
(Verse 2)
Still got love for the block I rose,
Even though I outgrew old postcodes,
Seen man fold when the pressure shows,
I stayed ten toes, never froze.
Lifestyle heavy but I stay composed,
Eyes on the prize, that’s tunnel mode,
No fake flex for the socials’ pose,
I invest in self, let the empire grow.
Mum said “Son, keep faith in time,”
Now I spit pure truth in every line,
From street-side talks to designer shine,
Still the same young G with a focused mind.
(Outro Hook)
Lifestyle mad but it made me strong,
From the dark to the stage where I belong,
StansX stamped — that’s lifelong,
UK drill vibe when I ride that song.
