lyrics

Chorus
Make your character be known
Revolutionary soldiers and warriors
Raise ya hand up for the sound
Subwise soldiers and warriors (x2)
Nobull
Many mans wanna jam in a grimey cipher
With the mic in my hand I’m precise as snipers
If ya rhymes are the tightest I might surprise ya
Think the time is right for us to shine the brightest
Too many nine to fivers living life the blindest
Knife fights, night life, pay the price of midas
When I drop the heavy shit you lift lighters
Adrenaline setting in the crowd is hyper
I’m repping the north when I’m ripping it raw
I’m checking the score and belittling frauds
Endorsing more wars for your pitiful cause
But fuck a poor law corporate liberal whore
In syllables and syntax we stick to the facts
Me and Fred back to back with the wickedest tracks
Sick as syphilis, vociferous, ridiculous raps
Envious emcees evergreen coniferous cats
Oh! I’m slaughtering foes
Flow! With the naughtiest prose
So! I’m raw and it shows
You don’t know Joe? That’s just how it goes
Nobull the Soulful I’m rocking ya premises
Ya got no hope of stopping the Terrorists
That’s standard like nights in with bottles of Herefords
Venomous elements get toppled with eloquence
Seditious sentiments delivered with diligence
The illest will is still in us deliverance imminent
The tightest describe us with similar synonyms
The Soldier Who blows flows killing the ignorance
Blaauw!!! Leave it dead on its feet
Battle fat cats and the feds on the street
Step to the left wing then you’re stepping to me
Warriors wage war whilst blessing the beat

Chorus

Drop Dead Fred
Step to the front we’re blatantly blazing again
Grip the mics and awaken the pens
Beware of the snakes and the fakers they’re making attempts
Don’t mistake them for friends
For them it’s all about cash ‘mercialise shit and it gets worthless
Wanna talk ‘bout the flash stuff you got?
Trust me boy my styles more like a circus
Like a travelling man wanna live life by the fat of the land
Slice with a sickle smash with a hammer in hand
My words come like a battering ram
I’m the type of guy that won’t nine to five
Surfing on sub-base high as a kite
Mugs wanna try and be fly
I say take two of these and have a go at trying to fly
And take off from the roof first
I see you losing your nerve ‘cos the truth hurts
Me I flow with the prose while their crews getting merked
‘Cos they proved that they’re worse after two words
Talking all hard with boring bars all bravado and no skill
They’re all getting scarred ‘cos I’m raw with the jargon
Talk from the heart and my flows ill
Kids wanna chat about grime
You know through and through that they couldn’t do time
Gannin’ on like they’re living the grime life
But they don’t know ‘bout the reasons why like
There’s a massive divide
Between the rich and poor and it gradually climbs
Police got tasers and mace for your face
And then wonder why there’s kids out carrying knives
