Plan B - Where Ya From? Lyrics






(Where you from?)
I'm from a place were the streets are filled with snakes that smile in your face as they plot to do wrong.
(Where you from?)
I'm from a town where the mans will take you down if they see you making pounds and flashing it around like you the don
('Cause where I'm from?)
They don't give a fuck if you got talent, only got love for your bank balance like, "Give me the wong!"
(That's where I'm from)
Don't ever get it twisted. Yeah I'm really, really from the ends now what the fuck you want?

I'm walking down the street, past the coppers on the beat
Past the shotters blotting weed
Clear for everyone to see, but no-one gives a D,
'Cause this is everyday life.
Fuck the police
It's a ghetto state of mind,
'Cept where I'm living I can't see no ghetto, this ain't America, it's England, where we live ain't nothing special.
You can take anywhere and call it a ghetto,
Same way you make cyanide, same way you make amaretto.
Hip-hop's in the street, now were all busting *ecko;
50 Cent's on MTV, now it's cool to carry metal
Objects,
Now the object is to kill.
How can you value life when you're so close to death? Stainless steel,
How's it make you feel,
Blud, holding that buckey?
Knowledge is power, guns just make you feel lucky.
It's fuckry the way these yout' man like to go on, busting shots in the crowd when there's a show on, they're just putting a show on.
Real gangsters stay underground like non-fiction, they don't fire blanks at Yanks like when Nas played at Brixton.
Thrill seeking dickheads just doing it for kicks and
Hear a next man speak their name from his lips and
Give a guy props for licking shots from a gun like if they fired one at him the fucking prick wouldn't run. It's like they're
Praising these yout's for acting so dumb and it's no excuse,
Most of us are fatherless sons.

(Where you from?)
I'm from a place were the streets are filled with snakes that smile in your face as they plot to do wrong.
(Where you from?)
I'm from a town where the mans will take you down if they see you making pounds and flashing it around like you the don
('Cause where I'm from?)
They don't give a fuck if you got talent, only got love for your bank balance like, "Give me the wong!"
(That's where I'm from)
Don't ever get it twisted. Yeah I'm really, really from the ends now what the fuck you want?

Yo, where you from?
Are you really from the ends? Well that depends on what the fuck you mean by ends, if you south of the Thames, then nah, I ain't from them ends.
I'm from these ends, they call it the Eastend, my friend,
And round here you gotta watch your back 'cause everyone's bent,
Bare man who think they're rough just 'cause they're shotting the peng,
Hating on Plan B 'cause they don't know me as Ben.
Yout's as young as ten walking round thinking they're men.
They're under the influence, and I ain't even talking 'bout drugs,
I'm talking bout why the fuck they're walking like thugs.
They're in love with the idea of being a gangster, romantic idealisms producing hot jism like a wanker.
What ever happened to good old fashioned street fighting like Blanka?
Queensbury Rules, mate, that's how I vent anger,
Vent my anger,
Knock out your teeth if you bring me beef,
Leave you looking like a chief.

Where you from blud, where you from?
What's your name?
(Where you from?)
Plan B? Yeah I've heard of you, still.
Yeah yeah, you're fucked up, you're fucked up.
('Cause where I'm from?)
Yeah, yeah, that's cool though.
(Thats' where I'm from)
Give me your phone, anyway.
Give me your phone,
I don't give a shit,
Give me your phone, blud.
Don't make me jibb you up.
You see this blade and I'll cut your throat

    j.... c....

    his first album was listened too , that comment was stupid , plan b brought strickland out because he wanted too and wanted too change it up

  26. L.... h....

    haahaha id like to see u do better plan b is sick always has been u dont know nshit u drongo! haha!

  27. d.... ....

    aha, you clearly are retarded... my comment was before ill manners was released yes, if ill manners is mainstream then so are immortal technique, you don't have a clue about music let alone the difference between mainstream and popular urban, Strickland banks was his go at a different genre and it paid off for him. If plan B was becoming mainstream he wouldn't have fucking bothered with ill manners both film and album hes always been about the music and still his, he has not been commercialized

  28. D.... D....

    You talk shit, he has been commercialized just like everyone else trying to make it, the first album is about his life and the people in it, now its all that drum & bass bullshit he does not care about the people anymore he just wants money FACT.

  29. M.... ....

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  30. M.... ....

    What a tune

  31. S.... H....

    Kyle Ricketts your a spa!

  32. O.... -....

    Do you not know sarcasm? o_o

  33. K.... R....

    U ARE NOT THE BEST RAPPER IN THE WORLD FOR SHIT MATE EMINEM IS

  34. K.... R....

    @plQO94 OI BLUD U AINT NO FU**IN BEST RAPPER IN THE WORLD EMINEM IS

  35. B.... J....

    hey dude,
    i a person who doesnt give a fuck. that is all.

  36. V.... ....

    fukin rate plan b

  37. H.... M....

    Check his new sound mate 'ill Manors', he's back into proper hip hop.

  38. T.... ....

    Have you even watched ill manors? Dumbass

  39. K.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze his new album is going to be rap apparently, listen to his new song "ill manors" it's fucking beast!

  40. b.... ....

    still love dis tune!!

  41. V.... ....

    Doin UK proud!

  42. C.... W....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze he hasn't gone commercial. He just wanted to make a new style of music because he can. He wants to try pretty much every genre. He's planning for his last album to be a reggae one if you think that's commercial too?

  43. D.... H....

    My favourite rap tune. serious beat and lyrics !!

  44. d.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze the guy is too talented to stick with one genre of music he hasnt gone commercial he makes music and if people want to pay him for it then who are we to say hes apart of all the other mainstreemers. his next album is like a rapping side of the soul album strickland banks he even said he doesnt expect it to do that well selling wise its just telling a story now if he had bin commercialized i wouldnt think he would bother and would focus on making fake shit music with nomeanin

  45. D.... S....

    I still love this... not really into his new stuff but I will always remember this track.

  46. t.... ....

    He makes the music he fucking wants to and none of us have a right to tell him otherwise. He did soul because he wanted to, now he's releasing a hip hop album independently because he wants to. It's his fucking life and he doesn't owe any kind of warped allegiance to any genre. What a stupid concept.

  47. R.... ....

    SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC!

    ╭∩╮(︶︿︶)╭∩╮

  48. b.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze after he finishes his film 3manors he is releasing a new hip hop album? he is going to be the nuts in the new remake of THE SWEENY!!!!

  49. M.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze totally not commercial, read up on it (i know your comment was aaaaages ago but still, read why he turned to soul)

  50. M.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze i agree with you he does need to go back to this music but i like some of his new music :/

  51. J.... H....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze new album he has described as 'proper hip-hip album' by the man himself so hopefully back to the good old days.

  52. A.... ....

    @buffon006 lol

  53. B.... ....

    Fuck this is dope.
    Anyone know where i can get this as an Instrumental??
    Cheers

  54. T.... O....

    @MrStereotypicalman Thank fuck for that

  55. S.... B....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze His next album is gonna be grime again.

  56. C.... W....

    @TheLittlejake he is commercial, your just really stupid

  57. T.... ....

    And............. They think they know plan b

  58. M.... ....

    @knobber YOUR MUM SUCKS

  59. k.... ....

    Snoop dogg sucks

  60. j.... h....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze he hasnt gone comercial hes just adjusted his music to keep it up to date and plus he can play more than one genre so why you hating when that music has made him big ...

  61. B.... G....

    One of the realist rappers...

  62. F.... W....

    Mc Devvo :D

  63. b.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze keep it real! wen they wherehungery? check out devlin???

  64. b.... ....

    plan b was better wen he was rappin???????

  65. T.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze i agree with you about Example. but i think with plan b. he took a gamble to go soulful. just because his sound was different people liked it,

  66. b.... ....

    @SPCProduction999 spot on mate! proper talent? should still rap a bit more?? luv his old tunes!!! him devlin,and mike skinner still rules! streets where pukka at glasbo!!!!!

  67. D.... A....

    search devlin and dogzilla practice hours ....fat freestyle

  68. D.... A....

    @Xspero beiber can lick my balls, if you aint english you dont have a clue whats cracking.

  69. r.... ....

    @ChrisMayohakaEnfuze I'd say he'd gone anything but commercial, he's playing with sound, that's brave, not sellin out.

  70. j.... h....

    there isnt anyone with lyrics as good as these EVER

  71. L.... T....

    so true, sums up the east end to a T ^^

  72. T.... O....

    Plan b needs start rhyming again, hate his new style hes a brilliant rapper but another thats gone commercial, same with example.

  73. M.... R....

    @vyxtouch devlins quite good hes not as good as plan but i wouldnt say hes shit

  74. M.... R....

    ahh i didnt know there was an origional i just thought he made the origional with jme and skepta

  75. S.... ....

    Search Proffessor Green - before i die remix and watch his spit

  76. M.... ....

    @massgilms rhyme asylum, lowkey, tenchoo, english frank, phi life cypher, dr syntax, stig of the dump, the irs, genesis elijah, black the ripper, k koke, mc logic, then theres legends like jehst, chester p, braintax, blak twang, mystro and farma g and it goes back further still. I could go on and on tbh.......Also the person that recommended dizzee rascal is a simpleton.

  77. b.... ....

    @massgilms i dont think theres that many. quite a random category. but dizzee rascal is really good

  78. J.... S....

    Queensbury rules mate that's how I vent my anger

  79. 2.... ....

    @SirSteveBoi94 I second that.

  80. s.... ....

    @SPCProduction999 2nd.... devlin is THE best

  81. t.... l....

    im with him with that i hate wannabe gangstas to they think they are hard cos they smoke but most of them are just pussies

  82. N.... B....

    @beat275 Idiot.

  83. i.... ....

    @huntysin i wish he'd leave mainstream for good

  84. i.... ....

    FUCK SHE SAID PLAN B'S CLASSIC ARE WAY BETTER DONT SELL OUT ON US B!

  85. A.... h....

    @samnrob1 really?, what idiots!. but i respect him for that choice. if he has truly gone back to grime ill be buying that day one!

  86. S.... G....

    @huntysin his next album is gonna be back to this stuff. He even got dropped by his label for refusing to sing on his next album :)

  87. A.... h....

    i love the non mainstream PLAN B. wish he'd release another underground album for fun a someting.

  88. D.... D....

    @NotMuchDubstep I was just making the similarity between the two, both started out with a raw sound and have gradually turned more to a more mainstream sound. The early Plan B was not grime or rnb at all, he was a rapper and hiphop artist that tuned to singing with his newer albums. How can you say this song is grime/rnb?! He raps the entire way through this song as he did his entire first album! And I can compare whoever I like, it's a free world and at the end of the day it is only an opinion

  89. D.... D....

    eminem is the american plan b...like his new stuff too but you can't beat the raw plan b

  90. M.... ....

    Anyone that thinks professor green is better than this dont know rappers

  91. A.... ....

    @R0B0stairs BLASPHEMOUS? AHAHAHAHAHA, clown.

  92. m.... p....

    plan b tried to make it as a singer - it didnt work so he went to his 'plan b' which was rappin - he got himself known through rappin n now he MADE it singin and rappin !he can do what he wants now - he is a house hold name :)

  93. s.... ....

    @caza238 those comments were made before he made it :P lol

  94. k.... ....

    Ha! People 1 year ago going out about how Plan B hasn't made it!

  95. B.... M....

    He's doing a rap album, for a movie he's makin then doing a reggae album
