Lyrics:

Northampton general 1994
Mixed race baby born
Christmas went a week before
Mums 16, familys poor
Familys all she needs
How they gonna show her the door
Babyfathers mum any room at the inn
Military road open doors welcome in
Charlottes born, mums 17
Search for Rhys, wheres he been
All alone with two kids
Got a flat from the council
[?] the news said that shes using carrying a pram
Sam wait here Ill get you a juice quick
Three flights and she gotta do two trips
No electric back to the newss housing association
Moving fam to the Eastern District, Lings
Number 6 near the garages
Fell in love with a drug dealer
Picked us up in a limousine
I remember lights
Like a movie scene
Took mum to dazzling heights
Where she deserves to be
Only queen lays me up and kept me clean
Tell me right even when I wronged
Wiped my arse and changed nappies
Tell me the time we made it go
12 hour shifts all week
Tell me it never stops
12 hour shifts all week
Only queen lays me up and kept me clean
Tell me right even when Im wrong
Wiped my arse and changed nappies
Tell me the time we made it go
12 hour shifts all week
Tell me it never stops
Tell her shes
Loyaltys royalty that s is priceless
Mum took loans to make her home look nice
Worked to the bone to put food on her side
Clothes on the back and the shoes that we like
Only one there when her brothers on pipe
Only one who cared and dealt with that s-
Stepdad cheating before my brother died
He had no reason the best woman in his life
When my brother was born it was hospital visits
Two gs alike you know muscular dishes
Shower cuddles and kisses
Up to Oxford to get told in two weeks he aint living
When he died we moved up to a village
It was [?] Scunthorpe one Christmas
Then its back to North whats the difference
Stepdad on drugs I think that hes lost his mind
Three crates a night, she pretending now someones dying
I know were all angry too
Whats mum done to you
Youre lucky Im not as big as you
Ill punch you til my hands turn blue
Kicked us out now we living at Tashas
In her living room
Funny how good vibes turn the room to a palace
Dreams come true
Mum told us kids
Just imagine do anything as long as you do it with passion
Have everything no way I can pay you back
I just hope I can make you proud
Im sorry for the times I was bad
Acting like a spoilt child
Youre the strongest person I know
Made us happy even when you felt down
Always other people first
But Im thinking for you right now
