Playing with Fire

Plan B

One day you’ll learn
When you get burned,
By then it will be too late for ya
Be too late for ya
When the fire spreads and burns, 
Don’t you know?

He’s just a kid off the estate
They call him little Jake
Today he tried to buy weed with his little mate
Up in the bits, but he’s just a kid
So, he was open to manipulation
He had to undergo initiation
And when some older boys saw the situation
They took the piss, now look at this
Little youth beating up his only friend
The only one that weren't pretend
And even gave him the money for depend
From mice to men, and then to rats
But only a snake behaves like that
But the gang don’t care for fools shooting caps
They're just happy that you fall for the trap

Playing with fire, 
It doesn’t burn
First time, your hand,
Walked through the flame
Playing with fire, 
Bitter and sweet, Oh-no
Scorching skin now
Hell on its way
Playing with fire
Fire, fire, fire, 
Go playing with fire
One day you’ll learn
When yo get burned
By then it’ll be too late for ya
Be too late for ya
When the fire spreads and burns
Don’t you know?

He’s just a kid, 
But he feels like a man today
He joined a gang today
Been at a house party around the way
Doing illegal shit, but he’s just a kid
Still he’s in luck today
He got a fuck today
Yeah he bust his very first nut today
In some stupid bitch
Today’s moving quick
So quick, if you wear the wrong shoes
You’ll slip,
Better keep up with the tempo, with a clique
Cause what they on is messed up bruv
And now that he’s rolling with these vexed up thugs
So what’s next up bruv?
Cause he’s gonna make it his only mission
To better his position, in this little gang it’s a competition
To the little man with a disposition
Holier than thou, he was born a Christian
All he worships now is an idealism
Wise men will tell you with age comes wisdom
And you can’t be saved by religion unless you have faith
So it makes no difference to the youths, 
That are raised in the system
You don’t have age on the side
Or any positive role models in their lives that 
provide insight
So they ain’t gonna listen
As for Jake, he’s already made his decision
And now he’s just another poster boy
For David Cameron’s Broken Britain

Playing with fire, 
It doesn’t burn
First time, your hand,
Walked through the flame
Playing with fire, 
Bitter and sweet, Oh-no
Scorching skin now
Hell on its way
Playing with fire
Fire, fire, fire, 
Go playing with fire
One day you’ll learn
When yo get burned
By then it’ll be too late for ya
Be too late for ya
When the fire spreads and burns
Don’t you know?
