Drug Dealer Lyrics - Ill Manors (deluxe Edition) - Plan B

Mr drug dealer 

Mr drug dealer 

Mr drug dealer 

The night is '75 there was this chick named Janet 

A pregnant heroin addict who said she didn't plan it 

So never thought to stop, or ever kick the habit 

Cos Kirby let her do it and she knew he always had it 

Down in his cellar with Trevor another addict 

Who was at it like an asthmatic trapped in an attic 

Sucking on an asthma punt 

Though you never know by looking at him that's the cunt 

Who by 1983 was in the national front 

Yeah he had a shaved head but still got mashed on drugs 

So Kirby didn't mind him hanging round that much 

Especially anytime Janet came round to fuck 

Get her fix while her kid Chris waited around 

A nine year old boy he was healthy and loud 

Cos even when she was pregnant she was smoking around 

And she was ducking that he wasn't born disabled somehow 

Still when you're too loud you get a clap round your head 

Kirby aint his dad but he does what he says 

Stays downstairs in the cellar with Trev 

While Kirby's upstairs giving Janet her meds 

At least that's what they tell Chris still he aint that dumb 

He knows Kirby's upstairs banging his mum 

While he's left in the basement with some racist cunt 

Who's been waiting round for ever for his mother fuckin day to come 

Mr drug dealer 

What an environment to raise a kid 

Round crack dealers, heisters and racist pricks 

Trevor, looted the place as well as maiming Chris 

Left a permanent scar on his face the same as his 

With a, razor blade yeah takes the piss 

Whether you prejudice or not man he's just a kid 

But that's what Trevor done no one ever saw him after that 

6 years past now Kirby's hookin up the crack 

It's the new drug everybody's going crazy for 

1989 the year Chris started selling draw 

Picking up from Kirby, scar there beneath his eye

Think after everything that's happened he would treat him right 

But par him off with just another ounce of weed 

Cos a quarter of the bag is a bunch of fuckin seeds 

Hundreds of them and twigs the size of fuckin trees 

But if he ever moaned he get a slap across his cheek 

1990 is the year that really took its toll 

Cos that's the year his mother Janet took an overdose 

Of heroin and died, god rest her tortured soul 

Now he's left to fend for himself or by his own 

Its 1995, now that he's older stress weighs on his shoulders 

Heavy as boulders, but he hides it from his olders 

He's been living on the far side since he was a youth 

But the way he lives now is a far cry 

From the way he, did in the past cos he's 

Made his way up from sellin ounces to bars of weed 

Out In the streets, where people do their nasty deeds 

He sees 'em making money so he wants a larger piece 

He's a man now, 21 years of age 

It's been a couple years since Kirby's palms were raised 

Lost in anger, ended up across his face cos he's a man now 

And Kirby knows he's past his stage of gettin beats 

Still that don't change the way he treats 

Chris when he comes round to his, to get his weed 

Kirby don't like his attitude he's cocky now believe 

So again he palms him off with more twigs and fuckin seeds 

But Chris aint havin none of it he aint no little kid now 

He squares up to Kirby who really don't look that big now 

And really can't do shit now but pay Chris what he owes 

And weed but also pride cos that what Chris takes when he goes 

Kirby knows he's getting old, and that's what really hurts 

He aint cut out for this work the way he once was upon a time 

But he don't know no other way to make a living on the grind 

Selling drugs is all he's been, his only way of getting by 

Then the cops come round undercover fed come shut him down, lock him down 

15 years away from now, the youth will grow, a big and strong and take control 

Have it ah, that's the way it goes 

Mr drug dealer 

Mr drug dealer 

Mr drug dealer...
