about

The first and second verses to this track had originally been intended for another project I had previously been working on which fell through, but they were such good verses that I didn't want to waste them.
So I didn't.
I do like a bit of Sailor Jerry spiced rum...

lyrics

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!
