This Is Britain

This Is Britain Man
72 men women and children dead and zero arrests, I guess none of us are feeling impressed
I pass protests outside Grenfell in that rich address where shit weren't addressed,
Tell me how your compensating the dead/
It takes a tragedy for activists to get really obsessed
But now there's actually families deeply oppressed
And no one cares the DWP are keeping their sanctions and force feeding their tests, all that were receiving is stress/
Fuck benefits
The bottom 1 percent are demonised while demons lie politicise belittle minds to keep us regressed
The other day I saw a geezer on the street with no creps
He said he failed the medical they couldn't see hes depressed
People made homeless and die freezing for less,
No excuse for missing interviews believe it yes not even your death
Well this is Brexit Britain I suggest it's really a mess
They talk about the theft of cash while they keep you in debt/
The Labour core has been appealing for a saviour or
Were faced with Boris Johnson he'll come racing in to save us all,
Next Kim Jong Un will press the button and be waging war,
As Donald Trump applies more fake tan and gets that fake applause/
So tell Esther Mc Vey that hey! It's okay!
Who needs luxuries like food and warmth for living day to day
There wouldn't be no food banks if bankers didn't fuck up newsflash
The people that's responsible are sailing off to new lands/
But damn...
This is Britain man
These Tory motherfuckers are just straight- toffs
You prey on peoples suffering tryinga play- God
I can't afford to fly out of London and take- off
Displaced lost while they i.d your face- off/
It can occasionally feel like your drowning in your own body
Grey estates no money who plays it straight? No body
This cut throat life is so bloody
depressing and still the purists chat We need a hard Brexit! it's so funny
There was no point leaving the E.U and I'm sure it's fact,
When it's too late they'll look around like where the tourists at?
The media act the people are trapped with pure set backs
The rich and the crackheads get thin, the poor get fat/
But it's alright mate our crime rates decent in the right place
Young uns singing pop songs autotune and hide face
Nowadays they love them sorta goons and think it's quite great
But it was all about about the message that you spit in my day/
Fish, chips, food, spliffs
Sick, kids, booze, pissed
Complain about the council or the price of living it's
The place where you can make it big if you know the way the system flips/
Although I'm struggling I love it here for all it's faults
It's not all cups of tea & royalty cuz that perceptions false
We are a multi cultural lot as we swing assaults
Now meet me down the pub and it's your round I'll have a single malt/
Cheers fam!
LETS HAVE IT!
Cause
This is Britain man

Sailor Jerry
03:24
|
|||
My fury is deadly like poisonous berries
My voice isn’t merry make choices be ready
I’m cyanide in a cherry
Try and hide but it’s very
Wavey like waves when you ride on a ferry
Drinking my Sailor Jerry
My pride is so heavy stop fighting already
Call my life legendary
My angers a fire inside of my belly the sight of it gets me excited and fed me
Until I’ve consumed every mike every emcee
They try and offend me with cries that are empty
There’s plenty of fish in the sea
But they never could spit it like me
And all their obtrusive delusions don’t tempt me
I see through confusion illusion and envy
Fuck you if you don’t like me
I could burn you to ash that you won’t quite see
Sensors on phones making sense of your entries
Your keeping them posted like sensible sentries
Censor your frenzy for champagne and bentleys
I’m in the ends with a campaign that’s steady
I’m making friends off my damn name you get me
So if you don’t want to be friendly accept me!
Stepping in the club and I feel that vibe of affluence- add to it
Food drink and rap music
Stolichnaya on the floor oh shit now that’s ruined,
I could have had another shot in fact DO IT!/
No time to think time to act stupid
Why are drinks like Ikea? They have units
Pour another cocktail back and snap to it
Pass the matches lighters out of gas fluid/
There’s bad humans at the back looming
See a line and hoover it up like vacuuming
Me I like to drink till I’m drunk then grab two men
Then freestyle battle em with my acumen/
I’m back grooving there’s back to back tunes
And we’ll be partying all night just like we’re grad students
No needles unless we’re tattooing
Otherwise do whatever you like, it’s mad movements!/
You see me now
They say they want
To save your
Life
But I’m on form
When I get in the zone
So Save your
Hype
Cheers! It’s Dekay the unacknowledged legend
The under rated, alcoholic destined
London estate kid rough unpolished edge and
mum I’ve made it stuff you’d never question/
The rapper that you’ve never heard of committing murder
I’m in the driving seat the rest of them flipping learners
I spray paths of destruction gripping burners
Your laymans introduction to living further/
It’s nature not nurture to rap a bar
These new breeds are bizarre I’m David Attenborough
Examining a species of life on selfie cameras
They’re gramming every scene for the hype but they’re just avatars/
Oi have a laugh, taking it serious
No saint whiskey drinking I’m so delirious
A blatant risk is thinking I’m so imperious
No hate there’s no learning without experience!

There is a certain type of personality
That will always take kindness for weakness
When you encounter this person, do not try and change them.
Distance yourself immediately.
Said he wouldn’t do it but he did, we’ve been through this before
Arguing in front of my kid, when man came to the door
Said I was a piece of shit, why don’t you just leave us alone
You disrespect and I deserve more
You’re full of threats but now I’m just bored/
FUCK YOU you are no longer dominant
Failed in your mission to strip all my confidence
I’m the main meal and your just the condiment
I’m the whole world and your a sub continent/
I’ve seen the pattern of abuse and I’m onto it
You have no rights no proof and no documents
Take my advice go to a neurologist
Or a psychologist, or a lobotomist/
Done with the bullshit to your astonishment
Go learn how to live like a communist
Got no acknowledgement your words are hollow tipped
Your dead to me and this is your monument/
Fuck what you think bring on the apocalypse
Seventy headless horses and all of it
Your word is lies nah you’ll never honour it
You don’t own my heart you only borrowed it/
FAKE with your promises FAKE with your honesty
Take everything that you want no apology
You were the catalyst that darkness swallowed me
Till I could battle it now I just wanna be FREE from the hate and insidious company
Trying to control everything till you smother me
Give me the time you’ll see my recovery
But I’ll be fine cause I’ve re discovered me!/
Leave me, believe me
Your nothing
Delete me
Leave me, believe me
I don’t need you
You need me
Police cars, handcuffs
Breath hard, stand up
DNA swabs prints of my hands just
Violated me cause the man made some scams up/
Now I’ve assaulted you- ha
Your fake stories dissolved in truth
Wish I never got involved with you
Cause what’s love got to do with it when you’re sitting in a piss stained cell
Alone with your unresolved issues/
You disrespected my family
You tried to use and to damage me
Now it’s a mutiny now it’s all anarchy/
Going on with your savagery
The kinder I was the more you’d act savagely
I’m going to send you this track from me
To let you know you ain’t never getting back with me/
And don’t fucking get back to me cause actually
You won’t never be a match for me
I’m moving on you ain’t catching me
can’t prove me wrong cause you lie tragically
Your whole act was a tragedy/
Unshackle me
Re enact all the action scenes
This was all your fault now I’m back to me
And I’m telling you I’m happy, free
Your whole life is a fallacy
How could you do this so casually
Watch police roll up like it’s amber leaf
You enrage and embarrass me
You provoked this reaction see,
Should have known not to clash with D
And you did it so gradually
Of yourself you’re a parody
You’re a one man charity
Your a casualty!

“Hi. I’d like to rent a car please...”
...(just give me the fucking keys hurry UP!)
Kicking back ripping tracks in a Volvo
Look at that flipping back like I’m Voldo
Drinking Jack spitting raps I’m an old pro
Killing that it’s a fact problem solved though/ I’m
Kicking back ripping tracks in a Volvo
Look at that flipping back like I’m Voldo
Drinking Jack spitting raps I’m an old pro
Killing that it’s a fact problem solved though
I got that drive, Drive To Succeed
Drive quick as fuck playing Tupac hit em up
GPS on my ex address gonna pick him up
Like a small zoot you’ve noticed that I’m a little blunt
So I’ll probably start the convo with Listen cunt!/
I’m ripping up our old pictures I’m so bitter
Got a job then you left you’re a gold digger
The funny shit is you took the piss out my old figure
But since you left I lost so weight so go figure/
I think you were jealous of me, my flows sicker
I travelled round the world just like them Go Jetters
Said you had my back just like an old sweater
Instead you backstabbed me I should know better/
Why did you hate me cause I’m a better rapper than you
and my flow was much badder it’s true
At least you got your day job, you can hang with the youths
Stick to doing something you can actually do/
You and me forever baby,
We should be together maybe
I can see you through the window,
I’m waiting outside with a blade...
Kicking back ripping tracks in a Volvo
Look at that flipping back like I’m Voldo
Drinking Jack spitting raps I’m an old pro
Killing that it’s a fact problem solved though/ I’m
Kicking back ripping tracks in a Volvo
Look at that flipping back like I’m Voldo
Drinking Jack spitting raps I’m an old pro
Killing that it’s a fact problem solved though
I got that drive, Drive To Succeed
I fucking told you I had no time for a speech
You should not have decided to reach
In the open window beside of my seat
Then he noticed the knife now he’s frightened of me/ (man screams)
You said you loved me but you lied cause you’re weak
You did things I won’t try and repeat
Now I’m watching you die and you bleed at the side of the street and there’s blood on the backside of my feet/
man this guy was unique, but he’s a gaslighter a freak and a viper that speaks
Snake that chats lies to the police
Now your literally dying for me I best drive from the scene/
body bag him like I did when we were battling and drag him in the woods so we can both hide in the trees
bury him like he buried our love down in the deep done the deed now I’m finally free/
I take your breath away don’t I babe, you should have been nicer to me
Cause I ain’t got the time for your beef
still waiting for the pain but all I can feel inside is relief
Now he can’t criticise my beliefs/
Law of attraction (ha) you’ll attract flies on the Heath
It’s a campsite your beneath
And he won’t be identified by his teeth
Cause I pulled them all out they caught fire now I’ve signed my release/
Kicking back ripping tracks in a Volvo
Look at that flipping back like I’m Voldo
Drinking Jack spitting raps I’m an old pro
Killing that it’s a fact problem solved though/ I’m
Kicking back ripping tracks in a Volvo
Look at that flipping back like I’m Voldo

Intro(Girls chat)
Oi I’m gonna fuck this beat up... b hold me back! Nah I’m just joking no ones holding me back (you remember that track?)
V1 ) Yo, my minds illicit I’m rhyming wicked in Bible districts
Some lines explicitly violent towards my rival misfits
I’m quite terrific no writers gimmicks defy my limits
Because I find no limits proper lyrics stop it innit/
I’ll make you choke like you took a double shot of spirits,
They say I’m woke and the rest are fucking soporific,
I’ll take a joke rip off your ear just to make it clear it’s
My view you don’t have to adhere but you’ve got to hear it/
They stop in fear like the doctors here with a six inch hypodermic inferring that you ain’t got no years to drop a tear,
I guess I’m so advanced it’s frightening they’re in caves chucking spears while I’m a nuclear device within a rifles skin (gunshot: “cheers!”)
Don’t need Germaine Greer to explain we’re not to blame here they’ve made their hate clear never getting that we’re the same peers!
But it ain’t weird to me that double standards exist cause man this world has been pissed since we claimed a career/
Hook
I’m so sick off of the beat (you know this)
I’m so quick upon my feet (you noticed)
I know this, you wanna see (let's showcase)
So....
COME WITH ME COME AND SEE COME WITH ME COME AND SEE JHEEZ!!
Rubiix verse
Hook
They never knew the depths that we'd gone to
They never flew to heights that we soared
They never grew inside and got strong so
They'll never choose the path that we chose
All you can do is watch as we prosper
All you can do is see our success
All you can do is mourn what you lost or
Stop with the hate and wish us the best!

Running Around
04:44
|
|||
I’m still running around, gunning them down, building up bricks in the house
We’re talking Lego not drugs, never been thugged, except when I switch up my mouth
Good looking out
Got a lot of friends in the blocks so to them I’ll be giving a shout
Repping my crowd, that’s how we are
Stepping too proud it ain’t never allowed
Let me hit em with the real talk, please lord
This life’s up and down like a see saw
It’s tough but not impossible like cutting a steak with a steel fork
Where we walk I see flaws
Imagine this life could have been yours
But when you catch sight of the police force
Accelerate quicker than G force
Why bruv? Cause we poor
They sent my mates off to the sea shore
The council don’t wanna rent cheap floors and the rich only wanted to eat more
Well fuck that take a step back
Nepotism I get that
Work your way up to the top in this world or your stuck in the system till death and
Get drunk get fucked up
Absolout Vodka and that stuff
Wasted can’t fake it
But success I just wanted to taste it
Don't follow follow follow other people...
Don't follow follow follow other people.
Not everyone has been created equal
Don't follow follow follow other people.
London NW3 till the day I die
Living in a Lego building block they complain and cry
Can’t I have the material things there's no way to buy
Scraping by paying my way in life aiming high/
People round here hustle hard only to survive
People ten minutes up the hill jet away and fly
aeroplanes in skies I’m explaining why
The class systems given us different schools of thought combined
They can lock you up but they never can arrest your mind
Freedom in a city where your watched nearly all the time
Make your own luck network lots or get left behind
The division between rich and poors grown wide that’s how it’s designed,
Shit it’s time
For me to make a living off this music or I’m trapped in a prison on the grind
underground like the jubilee line, but listen truly it's fine, cause I
Don't follow follow follow other people...
Don't follow follow follow other people.
Not everyone has been created equal
Don't follow follow follow other people.

Hi my names Dekay.... and I’m an alcoholic (“Hi Dekay”)
This is a cry for help, I don’t want to drink anymore but seem unable to stop,
Trapped in a self fulfilling prophecy I’ve created a cult
Downed a 70cl bottle of Jack till I drank myself under the table and dropped not the greatest result/
Can’t let the bottle go, whiskey dreams are high throttle
Am I afraid of losing my bottle
I bottle things up then I pour them over myself literally drowning in sorrow
It’s like climbing a mountain that’s hollow
Why can’t I stop/
Liquidating my assets cause I’m buying premium liquor
Feeling disfigured because of what I’m feeding my liver
Skin peels like a sticker, rolls of fat appear on my figure
I need to be quicker to recognise and deal with the triggers/
It’s the drinking alone that reveals I’m in need of a vicar
I’m breaking down call the AA have me reading their scriptures
Just take it one day at a time and believe in that inner
Voice that’s telling me I’m strong enough to deal with this bitter/
Aftertaste of broken dreams betrayal screams I’m done with this sinner
It’s coming to get ya, succumb to it quicker
If I could stop at one with my dinner I’d be on to a winner!
Been fifteen years and alcohol is becoming a fixture,
Pour me a shot of bourbon and use rum as a mixer
Excuse me Mr Daniels well I guess someone must drink ya
But finally I’ve begun to begin the
Long process of not killing myself now my 4 year old sons in the picture/
I’m hanging on the very edge of sanity
All the memories inside have damaged me
Only way I know to take the pain away
Wish that I could hold on through my day today
Rukas verse
Hook
The systematic abuse of the poor I can’t take it no more
The broken dreams washed ashore, ravaged by cannibal jaws
The changing space in the mirror reveals a face I abhor
Don’t be complacent it’s war against my own nature I’m torn/
Racing the dawn like a vampire I’ll crumble in dust
This life is pain give me a vodka cause I’m hungry with lust,
I’ve fucked up on stage till I’m stumbling but
They’ve never seen my real potential cause I always show up Drunken as Fuck (whoa oh)/
I will not let this illness beat me, never defeat me
I’m putting this out so you know when you see me
The fact is that I’m probably going to drink again mate believe me
But at least now it’s in the open you can say take it easy

Space Estate

They’re not from the spaceship maybe they’re not from my home
According to this other place we’ve never been alone
(Zaza, za zizizi za za...)
20 foot tower blocks with a purple tinge
They remind me of rocks with a serpents skin
And if time hasn’t stopped it’s no earthly thing
As I watch shadow clocks flapping circle wings/
The three moons have just curved the rim
Of the horizon- their red sun burns a disturbing grin
I see the flowers resurfacing
Nocturnal plants that only come out for lunar worshipping/
All our research isn’t worth a thing
In comparison with this there’s no words to bring
Any explanation for the world I’m inserted in
My nerves are just murdering:/
The brutalist massive beauty of this place I’m determining
Sky the colour of bourbon dims
Temperature surges thin
It seems deserted, grim
Until the shadows come closer I swear that I heard them sing/
They’re not from the spaceship maybe they’re not from my home
According to this other place we’ve never been alone
Is that all it takes
i heard them say...
Nothings the same...
This whole place man it’s pure and mystic
The loosest whizz kid couldn’t look this futuristic
I pick up a rock glistening
And examine it closely like police when they do ballistics/
Man this is cool holistic
Not humanistic
But I’d choose to live this
I think they’ve nailed it like crucifixes
I’m an unusual misfit roam around with these new logistics/
A small group of shadow figures approach me levitating bemused by unusual physics,
I wish the others in my crew could witness
This is amazing astounding astonishing lucid sickness/
The shadows don’t do simplistic
Hope my outstretched hand is construed as altruistic
Cause no massacre ensued so I’m optimistic
I’ll learn from this visit then return to my business/
They’re not from the spaceship maybe they’re not from my home
According to this other place we’ve never been alone
They’re not from the spaceship maybe they’re not from my home
According to this other place we’ve never been alone
"Translating...."
We are a sentient race of the Shadow lands on planet Stone,
It’s good to know we are not alone
Welcome to our home
We communicate through mental images translated right into this typerphone/
We can connect to you psychically
Allowing us to observe everything that your mind can see
We’re tapping into your memory And noting down everything we observe in there mentally/
This data is confusing; We see your species have not learned to control your emotions yet
That must be difficult slaves to chemically induced turmoil write it down so we don’t forget
How shocking! Look they’ve wiped out or enslaved nearly all the other species on their planet
Only the deepest parts of their oceans are free
And why do they poison their crops and sell the rich humans organic?/
Why do they use substances purchased with plastic money
When they have natural DMT in their actual bodies?
You better ask somebody
Ah, they haven’t accessed that part of their brain yet
They only use a small percent that explains it/
How disturbing that a small minority of their race keeps most resources in one place
This is a savage system and a disgrace
Look how the hierarchy keeps them debased/
The weather looks nice though,
Ahh their sun is much younger than our own they have time so
Maybe they’ll evolve before they destroy themselves and self implode
I would like to visit before their sun explodes
But at the moment they are way too uncivilised oh/
There are good things though
Look at the delicate balance between good and evil
Look at the resilience of people
Look at the creativity and the potential foreseeable
Still I wouldn’t like to go there
I’d rather live under the frozen surface of Europa! Haha
Let us leave now it was good getting closer
Good luck young alien friend return in peace to your boulder
I hope you learn before you get much older
And your planet gets colder.

My sister don’t say goodbye,
I wish I could make it right
But that’s just the way of life
I’m sorry that we lost touch, many years have come between us
Should have been that voice believe it
But it weren’t my choice to leave just
Understand it’s what I needed
Freedom to express my feelings
Building my own family but
Never stopped thinking of you
You have my surname and I’ve seen there’s
some of my familiar features
In your face they’re buried deep cause
We are both from the same crew/
Our fathers still with you but me I’m dead to him
Even though I had respect for him he thought I disrespected him
But I’m still his next of kin
And I got rejected in/
The hardest time of my life but that’s why I became super strong and accepted things
I’m glad we reconnected in
Social media
Instant insta messaging
You look so grown up last time I seen you you were just a kid now you’re as fly as I was back then
When you’re ready come and find me bring our little brother we’ll try again
Baba thinks that I have sinned
But he did the exact same thing
Did you know we have another brother and sister since
before he met your mum back then
They were twins he kept a secret
spoke to our sister online and
I don’t think she wants to meet up let’s hope one day we’ll be fine cause/
My sister don’t say goodbye,
I wish I could make it right
But that’s just the way of life
I love my mother so much,
She’s messed up but don’t we all
Gave drinking up will never budge
Dealt with enough still standing tall/
Thank god for you and my four brothers
I’m so proud of us
No one can touch us
Been through some stuff achieved so much
You’re all grown up
I feel choked up with emotion/
My brothers well I’m so impressed
You all excel and your the best
Uncles my son could ever get
I know you’ve seen my times of stress
But we’re a team and I am blessed
To have a family so exceptional:
We’re on point like a decimal/
This is my testimonial
I’ve watched you all grow from small
When your at uni I phone you all
We all come from these Lithos stony walls
Though I know I’m not a role model/
I do try hard my heart, is now stronger than Bruce in die hard
We had nothing to lose so why not
Pull up ourselves by our boots and try plot/ my God
I do feel bad for the loss of the other side but I’m happy that we’re here in fact
I know our mum has succeeded at
Raising us five kids four are academic geniuses and one of them can really rap
Without you lot life would be so crap
Can’t please everyone It’s deep but that’s
The price in life I willingly paid but never forget that I’m here when you need me back/
- Mayah's bridge -
(Dekay) How can some fathers create life and then leave so easily
Severed-keeping free they’re forever leaving the
Consequence on children’s shoulders and it never needs to be X2
Seen it frequently
That’s just deep to me

I’m stronger now, than I was before
Strong enough that I can do much more
Without you
I’m stronger now than I was before
Strong enough that I can do it alone
Without you
This is my favourite memory, I’ll take myself there when my life gets tough
When no one else cares and I’m fighting on the side that’s rough
When that horizon isn’t bright enough,
I remember a hot summers day when barbecues were lighting up/
A rainbow struck the sky, casting ultra violet light on us
The sky was clear and blue above the blocks the world was slightly brushed
With golden rays of heat, to the street from every side it rushed
And he contained the lightning buzz that frightening stuff each time we touched/
Balcony windows wide the music played and reggae dealt the vibes
One of those endless moments when I knew how much I felt alive
We danced until the night familiar faces to myself arrived
We needed nothing else to fly that happiness was self contrived/
I’ll tell you why, it’s all in your mind heaven and hell combined
Our memories that dwell enshrined
Are sometimes of the helpful kind
I’m going through a stressful time
There’s people that I’ve left behind
Addiction that suggests I’m fine
But only if I press rewind/
Hook
I’m going clean, no more booze for me keen as I choose to be
Had to admit I really had a problem to be truly free
I’ve died unusually while still alive somewhat unsuitably
And all the while I thought that I used it but it was using me
Those drug filled days eventually caught up and shut me down
Cause I’ve abused my temple and what goes around came back around
My minds so hungry it’s a cannibal that must be drowned
In litres of slow poison, it’s a monarch with a rusty crown
But now it’s revolution I don’t need you I won’t suffer now
Suffering suffocating somehow debating how to cut it out
Like addiction was written on paper deep in my brain to cut around
I’m screaming and calling for saviours but I don’t make a single fucking sound
So how do I deal with my tendencies? Let me withdraw to my memories
Humans are full of resilience and that’s the brilliance of living desperately
Set me free you ain’t getting me
Now I can live independently
So each time that I fail I try and prevail this ain’t the end of me
Sometimes I feel like I could be so much more than I am, more than I am, more than I am
Sometimes I feel like I could be so much more than I am
No morality no respect forever listen
Expect my visions too different for all their set traditions
Selected wisdom imprisoned in all their clever prisons
Been fed submission It’s the same deadly repetition/
Hello Britain I’m telling ya let’s rebel the systems
Full of traps like a rat infested flat that’s never lived in
And television is full of this heedless hedonism
So I’m about to switch it on like an electrician/
Have people terrified like its audio terrorism
Mellow spittings never been my style more like a head collision,
Dead your missions get them to the morgue it’s extradition
My low blows’ll bring you down like pessimism/
Down down down, I got them extra symptoms
Me leaving music would be like Homer left the Simpsons
I Got my own morality but no respect I’ll rinse them
The sharp edge of my tongue, will sever limbs from victims/
Hook
I’ve seen it all my life and now I need to tell you properly
Realise that homeless persons you without your property
Real life and talents priceless and can shine through poverty so
Tell me how we’re equal when the rich create the policies/
The kids need education that don’t stifle their speech
And old people in this nation freeze and die in their sleep
Like all of us here on this planet I’m just trying to keep
My head above the icy water that’s enticingly deep/
Lifes a bit peak like it’s shit creek
I’m unfit weak fight and get beat
Twice in six weeks tired of this street
While the kids eat Rice and split peas/
Day and night I need money so I can get meat
Steaks and salad, some pies or mixed greens
All I can affords pasta rice or chips please
Desperation ain’t nice bruv it reeks!/
Its a reality tv challenge to manage these streets
And mend the mental damaged family tree
We’re rebuilt from the same atoms I just happened to be
Born into certain circular patterns what matters is I’m actually free/
