It must have been in home ec we both met at warriner
Bout a year before we turned dope head warriors
Skiving down the farm with the jokers n the worriers
Different types of kids, different homes that were borrowers,

thieves n smoke followers, teachers don't bother us, used to
rack the rips up at my mums n smoke all of it, drug life living
weren't a joke, it was calling us,
Trying to smoke away all the trauma that had been haunting us,

I remember when I came round your dad's house, back of the
house I heard him smacking you about, ran down the road,
picked up the phone threatened him, scared the life out of
your dad n he stopped everything.

You and me we were a team out shoplifting, taking stuff
into school and got shifting, selling what we robbed to
the kids, then we'd spend it on draws, and go home, and
we were puffing the spliffs it's like

I ain't seen you for a donkeys, you've disappeared>
I'm remenissing bout them golden years
Puffing spliffs and holding the beers
The drug life seemed fine but now I'm holding the tears

Cos it led to a nightmare, controlled by the fear
I wish it were different, I wish you were here
I wish we never went down that route
Then maybe I'd know you
And you wouldnt be a ghost in my head

Do you remember when we/ took that acid? And it turned
to pure madness. Everyone was losing the plot, pure sadness,
people going hospital, some were getting cuffed to a bed, God knows
what was up in their head,

but it was darkness, everyday, that 2bc done me in every
way, it took years to recover from that stuff, n everyone
that done, the same stuff said the same bruv, it's backwards,

how it used to mess us all up and we'd still do it,
free drugs on a free tab n we'd all chew it, dunno happened
to Joe Bell, he probably knows jail, or maybe he's dead,
it's not a known tale.

Years passed and you disappeared, you sold weed for a
bit, dropping maccy D's bags out the window n shit,
but then you just went, I remember when you called me
from Spain, it was fucked then

I ain't seen you for a donkeys, you've disappeared>
I'm remenissing bout them golden years
Puffing spliffs and holding the beers
The drug life seemed fine but now I'm holding the tears

Cos it led to a nightmare, controlled by the fear
I wish it were different, I wish you were here
I wish we never went down that route
Then maybe I'd know you
And you wouldnt be a ghost in my head

I remember when I /found you online
I was like "about time"
We had a brief chat you sounded all fine
But next thing I know you're offline
And I'm wondering why
Figured you were on the run, Guy

I spoke to a patient lately
we bonded in no time
Turns out he knew you were alive
He'd spoke to you on a phone call
And said that you were out trying
To stay in London, living the life (living the life)

And here I am, still near Banners
I never got away bruv, I tried, it's a challenge
I went from Banbury, to Coventry, to London
to Norwich n then to Brum, but I'm still stuck, I never get balanced

I never got fixed, I swear that I'm jinxed/
All of the drugs, they proper knocked me for six
Now you're gonna find out about all the stuff that I did
I'm sorry but I messed up big////

I ain't seen you for a donkeys, you've disappeared>
I'm remenissing bout them golden years
Puffing spliffs and holding the beers
The drug life seemed fine but now I'm holding the tears

Cos it led to a nightmare, controlled by the fear
I wish it was different, I wish you were here
I wish we never went down that route
Then maybe I'd know you
And you wouldn't be a ghost in my head
