100 (Built For This) lyrics - Dappy
(I keep it 100)
(I keep it 100 oh)
You know I always keep it one hundred right?
(I keep it 100)
You ain’t gotta worry about shhhh
(I keep it 100)
I thought that you’d give up
When all we had was us
I can’t even lie, even lie to ya
I’m sorry it ain’t my fault
I run out of all my trust
I went through hell and back
To get it back.
That’s why every day I thank the lord
You ain’t just with me for money
Cos you keep on giving without taking nothing from me
I remember all the times when I was low
And you never let go
(Oh no)
I’m just being honest with you oh
You could be down and out
But it won’t matter
Just call for back up
And I will always come through oh oh
You don’t need nobody else
It’s me and you against the world
Cos I was built for this
So forget about my previous
When I say I’m being serious
I’m too real for this
I feel to run and tell everyone
As if I’ll find anyone as good as this
As good as this
You know I’m built for, for you
See I
(I keep it 100)
So the only thing that matters
Is you can always count on me
Cos you know I keep it one hundred
And I have done right from the start
This time I really won’t let you down
Cos you and I were a part of me
That’s hand on heart
So tell me if there’s anything I could do to make it better
Let me know a way I could take away any of the pressure
Now if ever you feel low
Just know that I’ll never let go
(Oh no)
Cos I’m just being honest with you oh
You could be down and out
But it won’t matter
Just call for back up
And I will always come through oh oh
You don’t need nobody else
It’s me and you against the world
Cos I was built for this
So forget about my previous
When I say I’m being serious
I’m too real for this
I feel to run and tell everyone
As if I’ll find anyone as good as this
As good as this
You know I’m built for, for you
See I
Cos I was built for this
So forget about my previous
When I say I’m being serious
I’m too real for this
I feel to run and tell everyone
As if I’ll find anyone as good as this
As good as this
You know I’m built for, for you
See I, I was built for this
Now tell me who do you love?
Even though I haven’t made it easy
You think I’ve come this far just to give up?
Hell no
Cos what it is
What it is
What it is
What it is
Cos I was built for this
So forget about my previous
When I say I’m being serious
I’m too real for this
I feel to run and tell everyone
As if I’ll find anyone as good as this

Beautiful Me lyrics - Dappy
You say you wanna love me, you say I'm just a fake
You say I'm just another one that never had your back
Do you feel my presence? Maybe I should go
Maybe I'm another that you need to let go
See, one day if you let me I will try and mend this broken past, yeah
My heart will save us 'cause I am never giving up on us
So if you love me, you shouldn't care if I've made mistakes
'Cause if you need me, you should have never pushed me away
It's like you've been waiting on a different me
You say it could get better but you never see
'Cause I see, the beautiful me
So when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
So when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
They say that I'm a liar 'cause I'm from an estate
But what you say behind my back you know I'll say it your face
I wish we could let bygones be bygones and so what if I'm wrong
For you I swear I'll catch another case
So if you love me, you shouldn't care if I've made mistakes
'Cause if you need me, you should have never pushed me away
It's like you've been waiting on a different me
You say it could get better but you never see
'Cause I see, the beautiful me
So when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
So when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
I weren't brought up round money so I didn't know how to treat it
I helped everyone round me and spent it all just when I needed it
I made a mil' and splashed it, did it all again
This time round, can't even trust myself, let alone my friends
If I'm the man why they don't play me no more?
That can't be fair right?
Just don't get it 'cause I'm on their side
I wish they wore these Nikes, took a hike
To see what it's like, in my spare time
and then come back and tell me that I deserve to lose all my air time
So don't be waiting on a different me
you say it could get better but you'll never see
'Cause I see, the beautiful me
so when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
Its like you've been waiting on a different me
You say it could get better but you'll never see
'Cause I see, the beautiful me
so when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
You say I'm just another one that never had your back
Do you feel my presence? Maybe I should go
Maybe I'm another that you need to let go
See, one day if you let me I will try and mend this broken past, yeah
My heart will save us 'cause I am never giving up on us

when it comes down to it
I'll always have love for ya, love for ya
Hip Hip Hooray lyrics - Dappy
Hip hip hooray, aight, hip hip hooray
It's my type of party, hip hooray
One for love, hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray
Nana, hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray
Nayehh, hip hip hooray
They say no one's perfect
And maybe you weren't born with it
But who gives a fuck cause you're worth it
Especially when you wake up girl
Without no make up on yourself
Especially when you're being real
Hold me from your head right down to them heels
And even though they suit you, don't judge me
When I say that don't appeal
Cause you don't need to be rich
Covered in makeup or wrapped up in Gucc'
You know why, nothin' suits you like your birthday suit
You might look good in that new dress
And in them designer shoes, but so what
Nothin' suits you like your birthday suit
You blew me away, hip hip hooray
It's my type of party, hip hooray
One for love, hey
Hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray
Hip hooray, I want to celebrate
But why you gonna make it so hard for me
When we could be on the same page in harmony
On that note, oh oh oh oh
Love the way you keep it real
You blew me from your head right down to them heels
And even though they suit you, don't judge me
When I say that don't appeal
Cause you don't need to be rich
Covered in makeup or wrapped up in Gucc'
You know why, nothin' suits you like your birthday suit
You might look good in that new dress
And in them designer shoes, but so what
Nothin' suits you like your birthday suit
You blew me away, you blew me away
So I'mma make your wish come true
Cause nothin' suits you like your b-b-b
And when you wear less, that's when you look best
So you ain't got nothin' to prove
You know why, nothin' suits you like your birthday suit
You blew me away, hip hooray
It's my type of party, hip hooray
One for love, hey
Hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray
Hip hooray
Your eyes, stay down in disguise
How many more ways can I say to you
Girl you look good just the way you are
Couldn't care less if the shades on your face ain't real
If you're ride outside worth's quarter a mill
Cause only God can judge you, so that shit just don't appeal
Cause you don't need to be rich
Covered in makeup or wrapped up in Gucc'
You know why
You might look good in that new dress
And in them designer shoes, but so what
Nothin' suits you like your birthday suit
You blew me away, you blew me away
So I'mma make your wish come true
Cause nothin' suits you like your b-b-b
And when you wear less, that's when you look bet
So you ain't got nothin' to prove
You know why, nothin' suits you like your birthday suit
You blew me away, hip hooray

Kiss lyrics - Dappy
Your ex was a dog, but you knew that shit already
Now a little bit of puppy fat, moaning 'bout your belly
Stressin' 'bout your best sides, take time
And you took about a million pictures already
You far from a hoe but you dressin' like a jezzy
Backin' it up like a pro is gonna make me catch a semi
Semi, where did your drink go, take mine
Don't worry 'bout the bill, we ain't gotta pay it
Now she jumpin' round here bare footed, bitches can't test her
You got that recipe that make me wanna undress ya
So here, we have to stay here all night
Cause rockin' out with you here would be my pleasure
It's a good sign
You're sendin' chills to my spine
But me no want a kiss from your lips or a taste of ya
Can't cope unless it's all mine
And fuck your ex, he's whack
Tonight he's gonna wish he never did you like that
You can put it on your Twitter or your Insta, either way
He's gonna miss ya and I throw that right back
This ain't a crime
Turn down the lights
But me no want a kiss from your lips or a taste of ya
Can't cope unless it's all mine
Cause now I see you like my best friend, would you be my best friend
Who's this young ugly dude, lie in like the yes men
And I'm not too embarrassed to take my bitch to Paris
And we can't even eat lavish when I take her out in the Westend
Woah, that's kinda evil, don't let me blame my ego
Ayo, drop me your number or at least write down your email
My hands are on her waistline, he's buggin' on her FaceTime
It's poppin' off cause my baby, you should change that shit to waste man
You got that recipe that make me wanna undress ya
Jumpin' round here bare footed, bitches can't test her
And let me just say one thing
I swear on my life I could fuck with you forever
It's a good sign
You're sendin' chills to my spine
But me no want a kiss from your lips or a taste of ya
Can't cope unless it's all mine
And fuck your ex, he's whack
Tonight he's gonna wish he never did you like that
You can put it on your Twitter or your Insta, either way
He's gonna miss ya and I throw that right back
This ain't a crime

Money Can't Buy lyrics - Dappy
I sold out like a hundred shows
All I ever wanted came true so fast
First class and videos
All my dreams turned to reality
But how will long will they last
Cuz I don't need to worry bout' the rent no more
I don't need to struggle like I did before
But for you but for you, I'll give it up I'll give it up
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my car take my wallet
Cuz there ain't nothing like it
And money ain't gon' buy it
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my house take my keys
Cuz there ain't nothing like it
And money ain't gon' buy it
In my eyes your heart
Is something that will never be replaced
Even though it's pure cold it's still invulnerable
But imma make it secure and hope it lasts
So for now
You don't need to worry bout' the rent no more
You don't need to struggle like you did before
But for you but for you, I'll give it all I'll give it all
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my car take my wallet
Cuz there ain't nothing like it
And money ain't gon' buy it
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my house take my keys
Cuz there ain't nothing like it
And money ain't gon' buy it
So you don't need to feel nervous
Whenever my phone be out of your service
I don't do this shit intentionally
But you always think its on purpose
This happens every time that I'm leaving
I can't be late for one more meeting
I should be tryna catch my nine o'clock flight
But instead I'm still here catching nothing but feelings
So as long as we're in night
And we can be stranded on an island
For you I've done it in all my blood
So it's only right you're always covered in diamonds
Now just take it all
Cuz I'm feeling some type of way
Take it all, till I run out of things to say
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my car take my wallet
Cuz there ain't nothing like it
And money ain't gon' buy it
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my house take my keys
Cuz there ain't nothing like it
And money ain't gon' buy it
All I ever wanted came true so fast
First class and videos
All my dreams turned to reality
But how will long will they last
Cuz I don't need to worry bout' the rent no more
I don't need to struggle like I did before
But for you but for you, I'll give it up I'll give it up
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my car take my wallet
Cuz there ain't nothing like it
And money ain't gon' buy it
Ohhhhh I'm falling in, falling in love
Take my house take my keys
Cuz there ain't nothing like it

Even though it's pure cold it's still invulnerable
But imma make it secure and hope it lasts
So for now
You don't need to worry bout' the rent no more
You don't need to struggle like you did before
But for you but for you, I'll give it all I'll give it all

Straight Facts lyrics - Dappy
When I was sky high not many of you wanted to see me fall
I had one big ego, but I was mentally small
I thought I was the man, telling everybody what to do
When really they were just using me including my skrilla too
So look who's laughing now because it definitely ain't me
Due to all my fuckery my agent had to lower my fee
With all the money I owe out, I could own me another key
Instead I sold the house I lived in 'cause I was working for free
My friends were looking at me for help when I couldn't help myself
And labelled me a no one when the label put me on it's shelf
I weren't eating properly and they could see I wasn't well
Still all they seemed to care about was my wealth
Fuck my health
See the Tinnitus thing I have, has always put me through hell
Too busy looking out for others and not thinking about myself
I'm rich and paranoid, who else is tryna' fuck with my girl?
Who else is making up lies for another story to sell?
Yo, my BM sold like two stories on me for like 30K
My TM was doing dirty on me like almost every day
Right under my nose, I would have never have known
So thank fuck that I'm paranoid and I went through his phone
Fuck I see a text to his wife
They nearly ruined my life
Thinking how's all this information getting printed overnight?
No lie, no lie
I know it's in black and white
And even though it's in The Times it's still a big bag of shite!
I blame myself for being ignorant and opening up
But when you're stuck in this industry, you don't know who to trust
I'm screaming where is the love?
'Cause on the flip side, on my kid's life
In the streets I would've opened you up
Just like that, Mumma we ain't going out like that
One day I'ma catch him outside ah, how 'bout dat?
You know like that
When Pops used to preach I should've listened
Now I bet he's up there grinning just 'cause I tried fight back
I remember the times I used to steal bare weed from your pouch
And pocket any loose change you left lying around the house
I'd do anything to spend a couple seconds with him alive
Instead I'm just left with a memory of him dead on the couch
Forever putting pieces together tryna' figure shit out
Imagine I was more than puzzled, having to give you mouth to mouth
My lord there was dry blood all down your face
I will never forget the taste, tryna' save the man of the house
They say 'home is where the heart is'
Well my one was on the market
Mum's got her own key but she prefers it where we started
Queen of the hood, reminiscing must feel good
Couldn't afford to buy me trainers now she's cleaning up my books
When she's cleaning up the flat
She be polishing the plaques
She ain't worried about no bailiffs now her baby's paying tax
When the press are talking trash, know that it ain't facts
Why would I smash my own gaff up when my yout's are in the back
I'd be mad if I sat here tryna' justify every article
I've already been chewed up and spat out into little particles
Even though I'm sensitive and a softy at heart
All I hear is 'rip them apart 'cause there ain't nobody as hard as you'
Easily antagonised, when I hear a bag of lies
Everyone's got a past, only difference is mine's glamorised
Talk about being terrorised, like say I'm gonna fall back
Your favourite artist now started out as my support act
The scene was way needier, way before social media
When we used to turn to radio just to make our lives easier
Check my Wikipedia
I sold out bare arenas yo
They tried to brand me urban
So I climbed outta the pigeon hole
I kicked down the door and left it open for the rest
I went platinum three times, so how am I still in debt?
700K on the first, 500 on the next
When you sign a shitty deal fam
What else do you expect?
Oi Stormzy you the guy now, I've always fucked with Skep'
I writ my hardest 32 the first time I heard Wretch
I ain't got a chip on my shoulder about who's the best
But I beg someone tell Drizzy I'm packing something fresh
I got as far as I am from going HAM as I can
So for me going jail weren't really part of the plan
I came a long way from getting chased down in that Megane
So imagine man like me, stuck in the can
They say I'm too hard headed, and one day I'm gonna learn
Never thought I would be sat here selling signatures for burn
Oi Akhi are you listening?
It really don't matter about who you are on the outside or if your wrist is glistening
In here, you'll get hung up to dry for moving wet
The only time I'm talking shit, when I'm plugging up my tech
Ay so fuck the KG's you have, wrapped around your neck
Here all that matters is the KG's you're pushing on your chest
My momma told me keep my head down, stay quiet
How the fuck's that gonna work when [?] got man on a diet?
Thinking now I'm at my lowest, life can only get better
Them man run up in my cell and try leave holes in my sweater
Now I'm here and I got a price on my head top, uh
Well I'ma double that just get the pussy' head top
From lobster and steak, to yam and noodles and tuna
Thursday's cantine, couldn't come any sooner
Sitting in my cell wishing that it could be way cooler
No charger for the tizzy so I can't even call you
Oi, get down and lay down
I ain't come back to play around
Even though I was excluded, this industry's still my playground
I had one big ego, but I was mentally small
I thought I was the man, telling everybody what to do
When really they were just using me including my skrilla too
So look who's laughing now because it definitely ain't me
Due to all my fuckery my agent had to lower my fee
With all the money I owe out, I could own me another key
Instead I sold the house I lived in 'cause I was working for free
My friends were looking at me for help when I couldn't help myself
And labelled me a no one when the label put me on it's shelf
I weren't eating properly and they could see I wasn't well
Still all they seemed to care about was my wealth
Fuck my health
See the Tinnitus thing I have, has always put me through hell
Too busy looking out for others and not thinking about myself
I'm rich and paranoid, who else is tryna' fuck with my girl?
Who else is making up lies for another story to sell?
Yo, my BM sold like two stories on me for like 30K
My TM was doing dirty on me like almost every day
Right under my nose, I would have never have known
So thank fuck that I'm paranoid and I went through his phone
Fuck I see a text to his wife
They nearly ruined my life
Thinking how's all this information getting printed overnight?
