Here for Now Songtext
von Dizzee Rascal

You are now listenin′ to Young Chencs (Roddy run it up)

Real ones applaud and clap their hands together
Hate gets air, they stay down there and broke forever
It's light to get a man hit with heavy metal
A tonne of copper weighs the same as a tonne of feathers

Came into the scene as the golden child
Uh, we′ll see who still will be around
Uh, and who's only here for now?
Uh, who's only here for now?

Uh, goodness gracious, check the status
I set pace, check my face, it′s so audacious (yeah)
They say money can′t buy you class or buy you taste (no)
Still, my place is big and spacious (woo)

And I'm mates with all my neighbours (hello)
They ain′t fazed, and I get favours on occasion (yeah)
And I've been on top for ages like I′m ageless
I went through a hundred phases (whoa)


'Til them waste men and them Paigons
Recognise that they can′t fade this 'cause I'm fadeless
So just add me to your playlist (yeah)
Count your blessings, say your graces
It′s okay to sing my praises (calm)

Real ones applaud and clap their hands together
Hate gets air, they stay down there and broke forever
It′s light to get a man hit with heavy metal
A tonne of copper weighs the same as a tonne of feathers

Came into the scene as the golden child
Uh, we'll see who still will be around
Uh, and who′s only here for now?
Uh, who's only here for now?

W-w-what′s the difference? (What's the difference?)
I′ve done the distance (I did it, I did it)
Full commitment (full commitment)
Pure persistence (yeah)

Gotta speak it into existence (uh-huh)
Insistence (yeah), might be a little bit of resistance (might be)
Might need a little bit of assistance
But you (but you) gotta keep grindin' (gotta keep grindin')


Gotta keep ridin′ (gotta keep ridin′)
Perfect timin', keep a close eye, and it′ll all tie in (it'll all tie in)
Can′t stop tryin', strong as a lion
Get your mind right (yeah), and I am solid as iron (iron)
That′s why I'm flyin', smilin′ and vibin′

Real ones applaud and clap their hands together
Hate gets air, they stay down there and broke forever
It's light to get a man hit with heavy metal
A tonne of copper weighs the same as a tonne of feathers

Came into the scene as the golden child
Uh, we′ll see who still will be around
Uh, and who's only here for now?
Uh, who′s only here for now?
