It's D.E.V.L.I.N your girlfriend thinks I'm handsome I brainwash your mind like Derren Brown or Charlie Manson You won't suggest I'm random when I take the scene for ransom And I'm packing out stadiums with the fans singing my anthems Dirty like Lesley Grantham This is my manipulation So forget the speculation on all the trials and tribulations That I've faced along the way because now I've changed my situation My names lodged up in your brain just like a blade in an operation But now their all discussing me in their everyday conversation Assisting me to spread the word so brace for an invasion Neurological science I'll give you braincells re-wired My names Devlin & I'm just tryna gain entry to your mind I fought up my corner, didn't I warn ya, That one day you'd know my name A few years older now I'm singing Ayo ayo remember me Do you do you remember me! But now your being brainwashed. They never knew what my name was But now your being brainwashed You better recognize my name just like your family members My flows so tremendous shining like a thousand embers We came to take over your town til every man surrenders And kidnap your vocabulary until my name is all that man remembers You never knew me when my life was dark and gloomy But now my life is like a movie starring role yours truly So familiarize yourself with the cast upon the set If your unaware of how I'm moving then you ain't heard bars yet Nah! I'm Mr fire mic just like David blaine and Paul Mccenna Hypnotism different frame of mind whenever I pick the pen up So in the future if you remember any name again Make a mental note of 6 letters D.E.V.LIN! I fought up my corner, didn't I warn ya, That one day you'd know my name A few years older now I'm singing ayo ayo Remember me do you do you remember me But now your being brainwashed They never knew what my name was But now your being brainwashed D.E.V.L.I.N. make sure you remember me D.E.V.L.I.N. brainwashing your memory Standing my Make sure you remember me, make sure you remember me O.T. Bud sweat and beers. D.E.V.LIN standing my, Now I'm here, now I'm here! Make sure you remember me, make sure you remember me I fought up my corner, didn't I warn ya, That one day you'd know my name A few years older now I'm singing ayo ayo Remember me do you do you remember me
