(Nostalgia)
Ruby's as cold as ice
What she's been through in her life ain't right

Mum and dad the addicted type

She was in care by the age of five

She moved out to the Isle of Wight

She moved four times by time she was nine

She don't trust no guys

They can't get through but they keep on trying

Ruby don't act her age

She fifteen but grown and wise

Fake love can't heal the pain

She don't go school, she smoke, get high

Her parents smoking white

How can I judge how you cope with life?

Chilling with older guys

They ask her age, she told them lies

You know what it's like

You know how it goes

She's young and she lost her virginity

Now everyone call her hoe

Started with problems at home

Now all the sudden the problem has grown

But Ruby grew up on her own

She don't have a problem with being alone



(You're as cold as ice)

These roads are as cold as ice

(You're willing to sacrifice)

If you don't want freeze, better stay inside

(You're as cold as ice)

Take that chance, roll the dice

Broken hearts, broken homes (You're willing to sacrifice)

You're not from here, you won't know what's it like



Jack's as cold as ice

He's lost his mum and most his guys

Way too young but holding knives

He'll do that crime with no disguise

Retaliation how he cope with pride

No hesitating, go on a ride

You roll the dice, if it goes to plan, then calm

If it don't, you die

Don't gamble your life, you don't get that twice

I don't think I'll ever let that slide

But I won't get dough when I get that stripe

We get the worst advice

Think that you're bad till you're locked in the can

And now you wanna turn to Christ

It cost to be a boss

But death ain't worth that price

Jack got caught with a shank and jakes linked him to a local murder

Jack's eighteen and his cody's Max

He's young so he's moving nervous

Jack been in the station multiple times, he's moving quiet on purpose

Max kept it quiet as well

Now they're both in jail and they just got birded



(You're as cold as ice)

These roads are as cold as ice

(You're willing to sacrifice)

If you don't want freeze, better stay inside

(You're as cold as ice)

Take that chance, roll the dice

Broken hearts, broken homes (You're willing to sacrifice)

You're not from here, you won't know what's it like



The road's as cold as ice

You're not from here, you won't know what it's like

TV shows don't show what it's like

I've seen it with my own two eyes

Two sides, you'll see the divide

Freedom of speech, I'm speaking my mind

Say too much, get disqualified

Get fed to the lions, eat you alive

Grew in a detrimental place

Deteriorating your mental state

It's all good cah we still kept faith

Making it work but we still want change

These days it's all fabricated

Got to the point being real looks fake

The feens don't have no shame

Crackheads smoke crack where the children play

You know this, it's all a bit strange

Show biz 'cause it all looks staged

Selfishness is a foolish game

It would all change if we're all at stake

This ain't just for the gang

I feel like we all can relate

On my side, we're all the same

My hood don't discriminate



(You're as cold as ice)

These roads are as cold as ice

(You're willing to sacrifice)

If you don't want freeze, better stay inside

(You're as cold as ice)

Take that chance, roll the dice

Broken hearts, broken homes (You're willing to sacrifice)

You're not from here, you won't know what's it like



(You're as cold as ice

You're willing to sacrifice

You're as cold as ice

You're willing to sacrifice)

You're not from here, you won't know
