(Just think) Before u pick up a blade
(Just think) Is this what a really wanna dae?
(Just think) You could be locked in the jail
By yourself in a cell cause you fell off the rails [x2]

You dinny have ti carry a knife to look smart
G-star, Lyle n Scott can look smart
You won’t look the part if you’re carrying a chib
Think before you act dont stab another kid
Can’t we all get along? Nowadays whats wrong?
Just put down the knife is what I say in my song
When I was growing up all I did was play fitbaw
The knife crime stats got me puzzled like a jigsaw
Blade at your feet so you’re skating on thin ice
You only live once got to take care of this life
Knife crime going up and down like suspension
You dont need to carry a blade to cut the tension
And must I mention, this is real talk
You dont want to be in a wheelchair up Leith Walk
Its real life, No Grand Theft Auto
Just put down the knife is my bran new motto.

Why do you have a knife? Kin you no fight?
And do you know, that’ll you’ll go doon for life?
Or you will go down on the ground tonight
So ken what? (what) just drop the knife
It’s like a mum cries (what)
Her son lies
Closing his eyes never see sun rise
So son rise, right up to the skies
Right up to heaven, its hell that some die
Ask why (why) Do you wanna chib?
If you was really hard you'd be using your fist
But your not... you’re as fake as it gets
You just got a blade ti hide behind it
Your chick-kens, ken that your jail bait
Tin pale four years for a knife mate
At a snails pace, its how the time goes
And your job and your birds out the window

Choose life, no a knife, Im nice on the mic
See your life exists, I say it twice to the kids
See your all free to die, theres no price to live
Choose life, no a knife, and fight with your fists
Rise in a past tense knife crime risen
Kids young as 11 are ending up missing
Listen, after the knife comes prison
Put down the knife cause your lifes worth living

See mugs want to start, they aint too sharp
Now he's got a little sharp blade in his back
It starts, dark, leaving he parts...
In cars, black, leave in his cast-et
Shit, away in the Hurst
Never ever ever been seen on the earth
He's long, gone, I know that it hurts
Move on, on, on to the church.
