It's boring.
You might think so, but, once you
get through your exams,
the world is your oyster.
I don't want oysters.
Your mother says you're not
listening to the teachers.
She doesn't know anything.
All she does is spend time
with her boyfriend.
She's... Watch your mouth.
I wasn't going to say anything -
I was just going to spell it.
I don't want any spellings. Songs?
No, just focus on your schoolwork.
So, tell me something,
you have a boyfriend?
I didn't say anything
and you should get a Facebook.
What is that?
Talk to your friends on it.
I talk to my friends in church
on Melrose,
as always, hear me all right.
But as for you,
don't get it twisted.
School first, boys later.
I know that. I'm going to be
like Rihanna -
everyone's going to
want my autograph.
Hoo-hoo!
Oh, yeah? Is that so? Well, always
remember, you are my superhero.
You're full of pure light.
You can do anything
that you put your mind to.
Oh...

Listen, I've been boxing

If people want to watch me knock
a talentless influencer out and I
get paid for it, bingo.
Oh, my God, I love Teeg.
Neehow, b*tch. I heard you got
your daughter this cute
little rabbit named Lucy.
Yo, listen, bruv, don't bring

He's going to get boxed up.
I hate him. What?!
Why?! Teeg's a sick content creator.
He did a video where he promised
to pay a homeless man five grand
if he could eat 20 burgers
in an hour and the guy done
it and he was being sick, bare
burgery vomit everywhere,
and Teeg didn't even give him the
money.
Well, people must have liked
it
because he's got
millions of followers.
Boy is a sell-out to me.
It's so cringe.
How much money you made so far?
Well, you're never going to make
any money
only doing the stuff
that you want to do.
That's what makes you a hustler -
doing things other people
can't or won't.
I told you, three months and I'm
out.
Then I'll have enough money
to leave your a*s and do my music.
Yeah.

and I'll keep bringing home
the trophies. To a b*stard evening.
ALL: A b*stard evening!
Woo!
I grew up in east, too.
Oh, yeah? Fantastic.
Not Hackney, but near.

I mean, have you ever played? No,
but I played rounders in school.

your grandparents, first came over,
