The police are the cause of this.

They shot a brother dead two days ago.

That was no stop-and-search.

That was an execution. Trust me.

Things'll get worse before they get better.

Enough of this f***ing bunny.

There's a fever spreading

through them youngers.

Thank you.

I'm so sorry, I couldn't get away.

You missed it.

Tommy, you were meant to be here.

Tommy, leave it.

Come on, it's fine. It's fine.

I want you to look after me.

You're gonna be a father.

Just like you always wanted.

And we're gonna be a family.

I'm always gonna take care of you.

Look after you.

Always.

Show me how much you love me.

Come on, girls!

Hands off c*cks...

into your socks!

The food's awful here,

but if you convert to Islam,

besides finding the prophet

Mohammed, praise be upon him,

you also get special halal dinners

brought in during Ramadan.

- Are you a Muslim?

- Nah.

But don't think about converting

unless you're willing to go pray.

- Them brothers'll still f*** you up.

- Kill you for not praying?

Maybe not kill,

but they can handle themselves.

Ever seen anyone get killed?

Boys have taken their own life, but you

couldn't get away with killing anyone.

You sure about that?

At least not in the wing, or in the gym,

or in the yard, or at canteen.

No, you'd have to do it

in a cell or in the showers.

- You know Mason?

- Yeah.

- Essay?

- Yeah, I know that man.

What about Jake?

Mind out, cuz.

What, do you know me, fam?

Have I got your girl's knickers

on my head or something?

- Why are you looking at me?

- You heard him, you f***ing wanker.

You one of them rare youths, yeah?

Don't f*** with me, you know?

You little p*ssy.

All right, lads,

let's keep moving.

F***ing f*ggot.

Like you said,

the food's sh*t anyway.

That is Jake.

Hey, yo, new boy!

People all around me

and they're all in fear

I They don't seem to want me

but they won't admit

I must be some kind of creature

up here having fits

I From my party house

I'm afraid to come outside

Although I'm filled with love

I'm afraid they'll hurt my pride

I So I play the part

I feel they want of me

I And I pull the shades

so I won't see them seeing me

Having hard times

in this crazy town

I Having hard times

There's no love to be found... I

Yeah, Nash and Jake are tight.

You see that man

giving screwface to Jake?

That's your man Mason.

I Flow like a goal, let me roll

I Wanna get it down

but you never can show

I If you wanna do it

then you know we can blow

I I'm independent

but you never can show

I Let me hit 'em up,

let me stick 'em up with the gun

I Let me see how I want it,

go and get the fun

If you wanna do it,

come and get the runner
