London wordsmith Avelino drops the video for the second track from the Magick / Mercedes Coupe release. This one returns to auto-tune and veers away from his more recent and welcome straight up offerings.

Lyrics:
(Yeah)

(Yo)
Mercedes coupe
Peace sign on the bonnet but I came with goons
Made it out the endz
They really thought I’d make the news
Got my lady in Bottega can’t walk in my lady’s boots
Let alone mine
Plain Jane this kettle don’t shine
They never got me I’m getting on fine
Just made a killin’ I’m traumatised
From bloody streets to red carpets
Man was taught to aim for the stars now we’re the targets
Chokey round my neck cos I put my neck on line
Hanging by a thread they really hung me out to dry
I turned my pain into pleasure turned the flow into ice
When I said the futures bright this is what it looked like
I fell to my knees wishing on a star praying God will save the streets
Yeah we had it hard nothing worth having comes easy
Diamond in the rough I’m dropping gems on all my gz
Been on the same streets
Running from the feds we’re just tryna chase our dreams
Tryna open doors they’re tryna lock the whole team up
All them cold summers why you think I’m on freeze ?
We came in through the exit
Extra special guest so no my name ain’t on no guestlist
Spending stupid money I’m just glad I made investments
Made it through a rainy day got double R umbrellas
I need the top down
Popping bottles out the whip they wish I was pop down
Made 100 through the lock down
The moneys safe man don’t even need a safe
Where I’m from the wolves are hungry don’t pull up they’ll pree the plate
We was in the trap but we escaped
Had no money in my jeans but rich was in my DNA
Man I really beat the odds I’m glad my brudda beat his case
Went and got him in a ghost told him all you need is faith
I fell to my knees wishing on a star praying God will save the streets
Yeah we had it hard nothing worth having comes easy
Diamond in the rough I’m dropping gems on all my gz
Been on the same streets
Running from the feds we’re just tryna chase our dreams
Tryna open doors they’re tryna lock the whole team up
All them cold summers why you think I’m on freeze ?
(Uh) Mercedes coupe
