So as the beats come together perhaps it's time to get the words on the flow at the same time. Which is the difficulty of putting poems to beats. Trying to get the marriage right. This project is a personal test to see if i can get it done. It's been a long time since i had heat on the street and i wanna feel the rush again of seeing my records in the racks .
The push forward continues.......
TRACK 1.
CACOONED ON CONCRETE CORNERS IN YOUR HOOD
YOU'D WEAR IT SEVEN DAYS OF THE WEEK IF YOU COULD
A TITANIUM CHEST PIECE THAT YOU WASH IN THE WASHING MACHINE
OR A BULLET PROOF VEST THAT YOU LIKE TO KEEP CLEAN
PLAYED SO MANY VIDEO GAMES THAT YOUR BRAINS BEEN DECIEVED
YOU SEE YOU ONLY GET ONE LIFE IN REALITY NOT THREE
AND YOU'RE NOT A CAT SO YOU WON'T GET NINE
BUT YOU MIGHT GET SHANKED, STABBED OR SHOT WITH A NINE
SO LISTEN TO MY WORDS AND READ BETWEEN THE LINES
BASS POET SPEAK THE TRUTH
THE TRUTH DONT LIE.
DON'T DENY
HOW MUCH NUTRIMENT YOU GET FROM A CHICKEN AND A THIGH
A TAKE AWAY MEAL THAT COST £1.99
I BET YOU WISH YOU HADN'T BOPPED TO THE SHOPS NOW
WENT OUT FOR CHICKEN AND COME BACK WITH BEEF NOW
NOW THERE'S 5-0 AND FEDS AROUND
SIRENS AND FLASHING LIGHTS FILL THE AIR NOW
ANOTHER BLACK BOY DEAD AND DIEING ON THE GROUND NOW
PARAMEDICS CAN'T GET THROUGH THE CROWD NOW
JORNALISTS QUESTION YOUR PEOPLE TO FIND OUT WHAT REALLY WENT DOWN
HOW YOU CAME OUT ON ROAD TO FIND ARMSHOUSE
AND JUST SO YOUR FRIENDS CAN COME AND PUT FLOWERS AROUND THE LAMPOST NOW.
YOUNG LIFE EXTINGUISHED LIKE A CANDLE FLAME BLOAWW!!.
GREY HOOD. WEARING YOUTH LYING DEAD ON THE FLOOR NOW.
