As in heaven, as in hell

You see, he feels like Ivan
     Fm               A#m
Born under the Brixton sun
    F#                 A#m
His game is called survival
       F#                      A#m
At the end of the harder they come


[Verse]

You know it means no mercy
     Fm               A#m
They caught him with a gun

Goodbye to the Brixton sun
