DAY 5, Verses heard them plenty, empty bowls, but stronger souls, the government are a carnival, there run by clowns, but they aint got a big top, but a big house thinking that their big shots, yo yo, riled up and ready, chucking confetti at the rioting crowds, yo yo, round up is deadly, devil made it never spray it on the ground, yo yo, sounds of the dead beat, if your bad dad you deserve a beat down, yo yo, fired up and stepping, with the record on play, Day 5 Repeat Now

Yo, what the fuck was that?, pennies for my thought, in fact sit back for a minute, yep i'm in it, start to grimace, as i'm picking up the pace, and now i play it from beginning, and think a little bit Amore on it, evaluate till your really fucking sure of it, i saw the industry, i opened up the door a bit, i saw it all, and its all just a bag of shit, but keep it moving, not illusion just a prophecy, i got some knowledge not from college cause i got an E,you got make flipping time for your own believe, and if you don't do that, then you know your fucked G, who be these blasted leaders minced oaths boast, but they done need us, looking through the night with the pupils features, do you see me or the deep dark creatures, creep inside its album 5, and my decline will likely find, that passing time is hardly mine, keep on trying as we rely, its our protection, beat selection, track direction, editing, editing, crop these sections, fixed elections, meddling in everything editing.
Who's back? Bloods back, you bloody twats, new jacks in fact no longer that, we morph rap sorcerers almanac, alchemy to rip the scales of a devils back, slacking off never lost and i'm keeping track, my tales more garbage pale than cabbage patch, like Stille says got a gift you gotta rap, still many things got you on the side track.

Creep With The Bars

One ST, Look at me now as i creep with the bars, unique with the cause, i'm elite with the gobbing off, heat like a Molotov, meet the phenomenon, Pete turn the oven on, we got our money on this, twist, put the weed down, i proceed to embark with a leap and a bound, peters repeating i rap for the crowd, as i reach in my mind and i capture the vibe, i'm in a vibe and i'm coach be seminal, back to the cats that are Eco criminals, let me know chemical, medical nightmare, ever living, never put the devil in his high chair, signed sealed delivered, shivered as i posted it, i hope that your engrossed in this, emotionless, socialism to rhythm, i'm a do the best i can, move the letters round, time to stretch it out, (ONE ST) from your sound system, in case your wishing on another tip, ripples in the water from the jets of the mother ship, that's it we made a connection, read the tea leaves we believe in projection, action station, whipped up and ready, hit up the scenester's that's acting too petty, not for your ears Blood, stick to your peer's Blood, i make music you cant get near or hear Blood, true the whole system is fucked, eternally corroded and internally corrupt, looking for a way out, no way you could get it, when cant afford life's price tag stick it on credit.

Wasted Time, you never believe in me, that's your low, you never believe in me, that's so low, will you ever believe in me, that's so low, but you never believed in me, that's your low
I got up and got on my hustle, i double the rhythm now fuckers in trouble, too nimble decision, to spit with precision, unlimited living in lyricist vision, i pick them apart while picking up paper, saving the world, but death in our nature, amplify the essence of life, never been for nine to five, never the less with lesson we learned, full stop or comma that severs the word, stepping to temperature coldest on earth, i'm rather iconic volcanic with verse, lava's dispersed, the fires attaching, they murder the meat they put in a packet, i'm feeling so stuck in an omnivore bracket not lacking compassion just happy to eat, friar the tuck, they mackin the D's, they holding the pickle but stacking the cheese, they robbing the hoods, they making the P's, they making more money that you would believe, is it just idiots bought what they giving us, living unlimited bullshit distributors, taking the crumb they chucking the book at us, look what the fuck they begin to put into us, it is the food, food is the poison, method of greed, the greed that destroys them, seek and destroy them, seek and destroy them, seek and destroy
you never believe in me, that's your low, gotta talk about it, if that's your love, that's your love

Find me on a Friday vibing bumping the Isley's, my brother thought i was sample finding but i was just unwinding, like a yo yo, but i never used to walk the dog, i walked around listening to doggy-style, with a walk-man on, assuming gin and juice, was ginger beer and apple juice, i got all my friends drinking it, we like yo this what the rappers do, don't confuse our influences as ignorance, we was just innocence and in a sense, hip hop gave us an inner sense of confidence and from school talent shows, the flows seem promising, shell toes match the shell suits by Adidas, dealers doing dirty work, usually had the cleanest, but i remember getting told don't fuck with crime just bust rhyme, so when we went to new school we was the leaders, quoting more in depth poetry than the teachers and now i hear my own voice coming through the speakers.
Where would i be without the culture? One Two One Two
Where would i be without the story? Pay Homage
Battered of grade, as we played Sam & Dave, feels like i'm sat on Saturn its a certain Saturday, not a tantrum for attention, cause the music still plays, i'm breaking all the laws cause of course it pays, integrity the passport, punk i'm jumping hurdles, to pen a note in journal, push my pain to my past thought, who's that knocking? knock Knocking at my minds door? is it all the people all the people that we asked for, top draw Partridge, old school like Atari games that loaded form their own cartridge, don't get me started the future is coming, technology got society all dumbing down, like Smokey Robinson i see the tears of a clown, stranded on a pulpit, culture goes round and round, circles and cycles, we love Hip Hop, found like life its vital when it stops.
Where would i be without the culture? One Two One Two
Where would i be without the story? Pay Homage
Hip hop started out in the park, well, for us it started out in the projects, we used to rock house party's and talent shows, we couldn't even get into bars yet, gangsta rap was in you claim the Crip or the Blood set, and then Easy E took a blood test, before all these royalty's and pub cheques, we was just wannabe's and rough necks, until we got invited to those festivals, we was kicking cyphers in the vestibules, watching above the rim sipping on the special brew, when Pac had the homies riding on the lesser crew, and then they killed my nigga bruv Beetie, i tag his name on the wall with the Graffiti, thinking i should keep this talent to myself and be greedy but i cant leave rap alone, the world needs me.

Deep Nott Dark
I promise that i'm listening.
We should have been chauffeured in the stage coach, Smith and Wesson weapon in the lining of the waist coat. Next to the gold pocket watch i got no time for the poppy cock and boulder dash, man are tossing rocks, to the local users, yeah the loser boozers, shameless like frank, you know that Amy wrote frank to be Frank, beautiful rank, we live in a lovely dump, late night the lady's stepping out in fuck me pump's, and the elegance has never been properly done, because the red jacket gentleman are on the fox hunt, but you see me i'm sly like a fantastic mister, bowler hat, the round glasses, tweed jacket, legit grifter, with the leather patches on the elbows, and that's why we rub shoulders with the proper fellows, street survivors, mind your peaky blinders, before its curtain closed, fade to the iris
Moody groovy transient, Deep Nott Dark
Moody groovy transient, Deep Nott Dark
I promise that i'm listening.
The instruments on this instrumental are going mental, create a scripture and paint a picture so influential, and incidentally my lyrics heavy the flow is special, and we just blowing some sticky, no we ain't smoking menthol, i draw the sword for 1st Blood, cause i got dope potential ,i give your boy his first bud cause i got dope to sell you, got loads to tell you but you suckers gotta pay for that, they chained my ass up in the studio and made rap.
Slapped in your face

This is uptown uptown uptown acid, jump onto a speaker box and bring it to the masses, up turned cop cars, bank window smashes, revolution is not for the placid, house bricks, sailing through the air, fires being started looting everywhere, something really rotten going on, forgotten in the melody but found in the song, this uptown U turn new sound acid, pumping out the speakers, rocking secrets to the masses, the actual fact we got a message in our package, attempt to tell people, but people see racket, attack with the strategy, deactivate the tractor beam, put enemy in jeopardy, you never need a better team, let me lead you, like Zapatista, pipe of peace but still packed a peace, and that's the beast, a standing right right there, military muscle with the corporate glare, policing and fleecing all the tax payers, the fact is they looking at their evil bastard captors
Revolution

This is uptown, uptown, uptown Acid, threw the phone init, turned into some boiling plastic, upside down on the ceiling i've been dancing, the average joe's are still stood still standing, ahhh, sheeple, led up a steep hill, blindfolded while holding sat nav's that deceive you, in 200 hundred yards a falling sensation hit the ground hard, you've reached your destination, you're having a bubble if you think i will squeak, the spirit of guy faux will arise when i speak, and the anonymous that follows us, a million deep, cause the stakes are getting raised like the bonfire blaze, if your agendas remember the fifth of November, walk across London bridge it'll end up in embers, again cause they cant burn the burning passion, bun Babylon we carry on, fuck fracking, father time told me its now i can see, mother earths hurt ill kill for family, fist in the sky and prepare for the fight, Malcolm X in the window with rifle on my side

Could you please lift your head up for a minute, take a look at the big wide world around you, eyes are not inside the Box, truly
Liberalism isn't journalism, modernism isn't symbolism, dialectical materialism, i'm projecting on selected rhythms, i'm majestically the probotector, contra to believe, no ones briefed, just to respect you, so select a path, choose a journey, did you ignore me?, no i'm sure that you heard me, words are escapism, turn left or right, life's steering mechanism with a rugged individualism, my best advice, avoid the hypnotism, live and learn, and build on our wisdom's, and this true or at least it seems were lost, if this true were chasing dreams so what
Could you please lift your head for a minute, real times, the things you could use, could you please, could you please lift your head up,take a look at the world outside, on the real on the real, cause your in it, you cant place your eyes in a, plastic box, and expect your soul not to get lost, don't you know, by now?

so switch on and fix up before its to late
Rattomatic, Optics, David Keyes and the what not,, Tommy Gunnz, Gravy, Eddie drum got the snare shiot, i declare Jay and Nay flared up the Rell hooks, Ty Healy's beastly on the mic a verbal uppercut, Bahinyon and Blood we blame it on the bud, Habitual Cyphers traditionally at the club, Cappo, Mid, Ruk Scorz Stille love from the chilly one, Kumar Emkah Zemak i thank a million.
so switch on and fix up before its to late and we all get fucked

These streets don't love anybody, murder upon them has laid many bodies, coroners and yellow tape, them flowers and dedication, blood sweat and tears, for years evaporate on pavements, the concept of time is in patience, no matter how many hospital patients, there's no hesitation, to the earths rotation, we have to keep it moving in this hamster wheel were faced with, homeless man ask for change, can you spare change, the real big issue, he shouldn't be there in the first place, this is the first world, but were coming dead last, when it comes to humanity, country, huge factory, we are the robots, programmed to know not, to ask any questions, its revolution prevention, thus illegal activity's and police dodging, there's pupils in the gravel, the streets are watching, as we living it.
