(Performed by Derek B) |
|
To the people in the front and all the people in the back row |
|
Nice to see y'all jammin left to right toe to toe |
|
No more introductions you know who |
|
I am If you don't |
|
I couldn't really give a damm! |
|
So just slide to the glide of the rhyme in motion |
|
Or rock to the rhythm of this magic potion |
|
To have an opinion, not to follow a crowd, |
|
Brothers and sisters say it loud |
|
Not here to depress, only to stress |
|
Yes, we can all get out of this mess |
|
My license revoked, people think |
|
I choked, try to hange me with the rope, but nope, see |
|
I'm too dope. |
|
CHORUS Everybody |
|
You've gotta look up |
|
You've gotta |
|
Everybody |
|
Don't ever look down |
|
Don't let them put you down |
|
With a bang the bass kicks once again, |
|
I'll repeat myself try to tell you again |
|
No, not a politician or an obstitrician |
|
Just a down young man who watches and listens |
|
Weary of the system tryin to rip us off |
|
So they let you use drugs so your mind goes soft confused, amused at what the papers say |
|
Never get their facts straight anyway 'cos |
|
I've lived through the night of a 1000 knives |
|
Watched journalistic murder with my damn eyes seen 'em make, take, break many peoples lives fillin up the public with nothing but lies |
|
Livin in a class segregated nation |
|
Gutter press, comicbooks, mind information |
|
Try to keep me quiet just sittin in the corner |
|
But my name is |
|
Derek B not |
|
Little Jack |
|
Horner. CH |
|
ORUS x 2 The plot thickens as the rhyme goes on |
|
Can you hear "woo yea" anywhere in this song |
|
Let me take a breath, let me get some space |
|
Hold tight let's kick in the bass, |
|
Out of fourth gear rhyme in to cruise, |
|
Lyrical language, bring you more news |
|
If you have no ambition, no heart, or gold |
|
No ambition no heart no soul |
|
Gotta play to win no second place |
|
Why do you think they call this the human race |
|
Don't wanna be classified or be trendy don't like junkfood especially |
|
Wendy's No ad in no mag tells me what to wear or for that matter what to do with my hair |
|
Not a hip house or hip hop just my kinda song delivered by the young black |
|
Capricorn. |
|
CHORUS Life is much bigger than colour and greed so slow down and on't feed your greed everyman for himself that's not the way to go stick together then we'll all go one world one colour one people as we dance get on the dancefloor now is your chance to express yourself by the way you move the rhyme.... ambassador here's my groove |
