Yeah I was born in Stoke Newington Stokey from old city

Where concrete is over trees and all dreams get cut and bleed

Walking free when I was young I used to duck and weave

Playing up in Clissold Park and laughing in that London breeze

93 I was a three year old with many schemes

Junior playing football skills of Arsenal just like they call me

Sticker books remember wrestling the young n takin I was phased

Used to idolize when he gave you a break

I was in a nursery making story cakes feeling love

For the first time I remember days

When I was bullied beat up then kicked and slapped away

Clutching on the monkey bars and hoping they d all go away

Loved them city sounds and sirens in the dark at night

Helicopters fly above my head I d never get afraid

I loved them early days living in that constant noise

Bustle in my ear was like music to this little boy

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Yeah we don t know

July 94 we packed up and closed the door

Every note was now just some image I m returning to

What we left behind my friends my cousins relatives

My birthplace my first taste of how to live and how to give

Hackney down s playin of memories

Sittin on the boat crying that was all that s meant to be

I was scared of startin school again will some be all rude again

Beat me up and treat me like a fool again

Growin up a outside and never settle quick

When you re treated like a lump of sh

Saying you were black and time to account for what you f did

But I never did nothing told em that so many times

Screamed out loud sayin sh like they were right

I hate that history I hate that Union Jack

I ll never speak for any man or any flag

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Yeah we don t know

Sittin back staring through the haze of that road on that beaten track

Sittin back staring through the haze of that road on that beaten track

It was like I m in a beast of a lion and me peacefully dying

But I had no friends I could ever rely on

I was sittin back watchin through the haze of that road on that beaten track

But keeping that evil intact

I put the beat to track

Found freedom found out

I could be myself and find my world through my roots back

I never wanted to adapt or in fact take an action or an act

That for years they told me facts

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Yeah we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Sometimes we go and forget where we came from

And we don t know

Yeah we don t know
