Альбом Devlin

I remember when I was twelve years old
No worries in my brain with a pound in my pocket
And a chest full of smoke
I remember all the chordies we drove.
We used to play football all day and use jumpers for goalposts
And throw egg yolks at windows to wind up the old folks
Started learning about the birds and the bees
So there's birds from my class on their knees behind trees.
My favourite MC was Sharkey Major
Way before I hit one double O three, Temptation, Kiss 100, or Flava
Get off from school and take...
Ninety two point three but let's skip forward in time
Seven years down the line and it seems the spotlights on me
Sometimes I still wish that I was still twelve or thirteen.

(Chorus)
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'

15: Bag of weed, bag of beers in the park
Duckin' out from Feds in the dark.
Then we appear with grass stains up and down my legs and arms
And with a fresh beer clenched in my palm.
16: My bars are different class
I've been rolling with Dogz and Glamour and Shotz for a year
I've been steppin' up fast.
I guess I got around in the bits.
I was selling bags of bud and Tales from the Crypt.
I met Ghetts when I was 14, lost touch.
By 16, I'd linked up with Ghetts again
Rolling with The Movement and started doing sets for them.
Mercston, Scorcher, Unique and Wretch and 'em.
2006, I was 17 when I finished my first solo CD
But this time there's an album in the midst.

(Chorus)
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'

By the time I hit 17, I was the coldest younger on the scene
With bars you never heard and flow you never seen.
Before I come around it was 'cock it and shoot'.
MC's being cocky and rude, then I moved to some deep concepts in my tunes.
Monitor my brain waves, tell me if I'm crazed but I think the games changed
And MCs are opening doors in the same ways.
As I did when I was a kid, I'm... radio waves
And now I'm paving the way for a fatal display
Might blaze in a haze till I'm dazed then wave a grenade in your face
17 with bars that I regulate and generate pace
I'm only scared of who my enemies face.

(Chorus)
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'

19: Showing strength in the booth
Now it's time to prove what Devlin can do.
From the very first time I ever crept on a tune
I've immensely improved, the ascendance is due.
Original spitter, not remnants of you.
Swear I can see success in my view.
Crazy what letters in a sentence can do
Cos my lyrics are the only thing sending me through.
Kanye called me a gangster rapper; I'm not a gangster rapper
Devs, I just spit it real.
You're an MC like C difficile.
I look skinny cos I keep on missing meals.
I'll get cold like you know how frigid feels.
No children, sticking them rigid still
I guess my life's fucked up but I'm only nineteen and I've got a lot of living still.

(Chorus)
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'
Life can pass you buy, just watch how fast it flies
1989's when I started mine, now I'm like 'what happened to the time?'

[DEVLIN:]
It's D.E.V.- L.I.N your girlfriend thinks I'm handsome
I brainwash your mind like Derren Brown or Charlie Manson
You won't suggest i'm random when I take the scene for ransom
& I'm packing out stadiums with the fans singing my anthems
Dirty like Lesley Grantham
This is my manipulation
so forget the speculation on all the trials and tribulations
That i've faced along the way because now i've changed my situation
My names lodged up in your brain just like a blade in an operation
But now their all discussing me in their everyday conversation
Assisting me to spread the word so brace for an invasion
Neurological science I'll give you braincells re-wired
My names Devlin & i'm just tryna gain entry to your mind

[Chorus - Jodie Connor:]
I fought up my corner, didn't I warn ya,
that one day you'd know my name
A few years older now i'm singing
ayo ayo remember me
Do you do you remember me!

But now your being brainwashed.
they never knew what my name was
But now your being brainwashed

[DEVLIN:]
You better recognize my name just like your family members
My flows so tremendous shining like a thousand embers
We came to take over your town til every man surrenders
And kidnap your vocabulary until my name is all that man remembers
You never knew me when my life was dark and gloomy
But now my life is like a movie starring role yours truly
So familiarize yourself with the cast upon the set
If your unaware of how i'm moving then you ain't heard bars yet
Naah!
I'm Mr fire mic just like David Blaine & Paul McCenna
Hypnotism different frame of mind whenever I pick the pen up
So in the future if you remember any name again
Make a mental note of 6 letters D.E.V.LIN!

[Chorus - Jodie Connor:]
I fought up my corner, didn't I warn ya, that one day you'd know my name
A few years older now i'm singing ayo ayo
remember me do you do you remember me

But now your being brainwashed
they never knew what my name was
but now your being brainwashed

D.E.V.L.I.N make sure you remember me
D.E.V.L.I.N brainwashing your memory
Standing my
Make sure you remember me, make sure you remember me
O.T. Bud sweat and beers.
D.E.V.LIN standing my ......
Now i'm here, now i'm here!
Make sure you remember me, make sure you remember me

[Chorus - Jodie Connor:]
I fought up my corner, didn't I warn ya, that one day you'd know my name
A few years older now i'm singing ayo ayo
remember me do you do you remember me

I've been up for nights and days
And my eyes remain wide awake
Because more than my life's at steak
So I ain't got time for blinkin
All the time I'm thinkin
If this ain't hell it's one firey place
Metallic projectiles fly in ya face
And leave you like human garbarge lyin in drains
I gotta keep my eyeballs open
The only thing thatll minus the pain like ibuprofen is
9milli and k on the case
I don't feeel incontrol like pilots in planes
I'm trapped in this winding maze
I'm an insomniac I'm insane

[Chorus:]
I've been up for days and nights throguh this crazy life but
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Until they pay me right
My eyes are open wide but
I'll sleep when I'm dead

When everything on my to do list is ticked off,
Then maybe I can drift off,
Until then I'm wide awake, lyin in a daze,
My eyeballs gaze.
Hypnotised by the sound of my wrist watch,
Clickin tick tock.
I'm incharge of the Underground just like Brick Top
So I can't sleep I'd be wrong if I did stop
If I'm focused on writing a verse
You couldn't put me to sleep with a thousand and nine bottles of night nurse
It's likely I'll put ya lights out first
So I'll sleep when I'm restin in peace
Until then I've gotta bless these beats
Till I conquer the streets
If I'm conscious I can't get lost in a dream

[Chorus:]
I've been up for days and nights throguh this crazy life but
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Until they pay me right
My eyes are open wide but
I'll sleep when I'm dead

If you're drowsy remain in a slumber
My metaphors flow over ya head like a buttonless jumper
I can'#t sleep till I'm in the sky like lightning and thunder
Sometimes at night I wonder
Is pursuein this dream a blunder
Or the best thing that I ever did
I can't sleep or slip till I'm 6 feet under
Hence the song I'll sleep when I'm dead
You might only need money to survive
But my life relies on a needle instead
I wanna eat steak meals everyday
I'm sick and tired of livin on a diet of beans and bread
So believe what I said
I'll sleep when I'm where
I'll sleep when I'm what
I'll sleep when I'm dead

[Chorus: x2]
I've been up for days and nights throguh this crazy life but
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Until they pay me right
My eyes are open wide but
I'll sleep when I'm dead

Intro:

Let your hair down in London City...everybody just keep
moving with me.
Let your hair down in London City...everybody just keep
moving with me.

Bud, sweat and beers!

And tonight we're in London city.

Verse 1:

I'm on the A13 on the way to the city, where the lights
are bright with some boys that like to fight,
I'm leaning. Out the window, smoking a spliffy.
Through the wind in my eyes, like tears that I cry,
getting high on the essence of life.
Cuz' tonight we're in London city. And I got bout' 400
wit me...
15 minutes ago we left barking, now we're approaching
the city, I'ma laughing.
Wanna hit a restaurant first cuz' I'm starving. Eat
well for the start of emptying glasses. This is London
city.
The best city in the world when everybodys not shanking
and blasting, young men moving to music and females
shaking their asses.

Chorus:

Let your hair down in London City, everybody just keep
moving with me, just keep dancing with me, just keep
rolling with me.
Let your hair down in London City, everybody just keep
moving with me, just keep dancing with me, just keep
rolling with me.

Verse 2:

Alright, I've finished my plate. Now I'm walking out
the restaurant, lighting up the cigarette and then I
pass half to my mate.
Many clubs and bars await. We're gonna drink and dance
till' it's late.
And my name is Bait, so a lotta young ladies wanna
glance at my face. One a' got a glass in their hand and
a wiggling their ass and their waist.
It's the old t-show, sexy ladies who wind down low. And
if ya get approached by a bloke, who smells of weed,
smoke, don't act like you don't wanna know.
Cuz' we got the city on smash. As the strobe lights
flash, all I do is drink more champs and spend more
cash...London City no match.

Chorus:

Let your hair down in London City, everybody just keep
moving with me, just keep dancing with me, just keep
rolling with me.
Let your hair down in London City, everybody just keep
moving with me, just keep dancing with me, just keep
rolling with me.

Verse 3:

As the night comes to a closure I'm far from sober, but
I carry on drinking like a soldier, even when the night
club's over.
Straight up in the morning and I still look smart but
I'm far from a poser. I'm sporting, Ralph Lauren,
Lacoste, Lyle and Scott
I'm 19 with more grades than my Dad's got and your
girls still trying to watch. Well I guess my face just
lights up the spots.
And now I'm pissed up running in the road, staggering,
looking for a cab back to Bagenham to kick back and
cotch,
With this sexy blue eyed brunnette girl that I got.
With the light in the cab it was more than a lot.
London City just pop.

Chorus:

Let your hair down in London City, everybody just keep
moving with me, just keep dancing with me, just keep
rolling with me.
Let your hair down in London City, everybody just keep
moving with me, just keep dancing with me, just keep
rolling with me.

Outro:

...London City just pop.
Let your hair down in London City...

I'll still get the bars in, Devlin I'm marchin, like a soldier serving in iraq is, now watch me eliminate targets, you should have known to anticipate carnage, your attitude sticks like an arm pit, I've got bars harder then Arnolds arm is, and no man has gone red at me yet, so I'd say I'm here to stay like a scar is, I ain't immigrating I'm lieing and waiting, and debating, just what I'm going to be taking, I ain't faking, so don't be mistaken, like I've gone soft for the ratings, I'll take you up to the top of the dirtiest derelict block and then throw you over the railings, and the only motive was hatred.

[Chorus:]
Has Devlin gone soft, does Devlin think he's bad, nah he thinks he's at the top, all your bullshit makes me mad, but the drama don't stop, so alarms are ringing off, cus with the bars I'm still allot, I've been as dark as dark has got, and now I'm marching through the fog.

[Devlin:]
Tarantula, creep all over the beat, gargantuan and get under my feet I'll stamp on ya, I won't ramp on ya, the games like a letter and I just took my stamp honour, and if dinner ain't served then I'll back 9 stella's and stamp on her, and sip on a can while I'm drowning her, while I'm pinning her down as I strangle her, I'm the murkiest white man handler, till this very day been around here, If I was plotting then I wernt like the sound of ya, you get naughty I get a bit rowdier, still you won't let them throw back a pound at ya, don't place me in a box you cocks, if there's one thing I'm not it's fucking rectangular. 'rectangular, rectangular'

[Chorus:]
Has Devlin gone soft, does Devlin think he's bad, nah he thinks he's at the top, all your bullshit makes me mad, but the drama don't stop, so alarms are ringing off, cus with the bars I'm still allot, I've been as dark as dark has got, and now I'm marching through the fog.

I'm marching through the fog, it's dark and I've been lost, but with the bars I'm still the boss, and now I'm back where I belong, I'm marching through the fog, it's dark and I've been lost, but with the bars I'm still the boss, keep on marching through the fog.

[Devlin:]
Devlin I'm back and I'm harder then nails, I was raised in a place, so foul, with my mates in my pals house wetting up papes on the scales, but now I shoot bars from the mouth, keep marching them in or keep marching them out, I'll barge you around like a bully in a playground, if you ain't ready for the regime stay down, I'm going hard for the whole u.k now, I'm harder then granite large I'm titanic, infact make your faculty panic, like a madman acting erratic, with bombs in the basement and straps in the attic, a confrontation would have to be tragic, like the coppers, when he met Harry Roberts, let him have it.

[Chorus:]
Has Devlin gone soft, does Devlin think he's bad, nah he thinks he's at the top, all your bullshit makes me mad, but the drama don't stop, so alarms are ringing off, cus with the bars I'm still allot, I've been as dark as dark has got, and now I'm marching through the fog.

I'm marching through the fog, it's dark and I've been lost, but with the bars I'm still the boss, and now I'm back where I belong, I'm marching through the fog, it's dark and I've been lost, but with the bars I'm still the boss, keep on marching through the fog.

(I will be gone before you wake
I will be gone before oh yes
I will be gone before you wake
I will be gone)

Listen, yeah carry on whinging and whining
And get left to regret what you said
I'll be out the door in a sec
Like Usain Bolt i'm quicker than lightening
I'm tired of irony
And hours on end, the bickering, fighting
I blame my surroundings
A relationship defined in violence
It blossomed, and it bloomed
Now it's rotten and i'm blue
And even though I still love you
I can't go through with the doom and gloom again
That's the truth my friend
I'm not leaving for another lady
I felt I had to depart
Cos if I didn't I'd kill you, maybe

Chorus
Ah, empty days of pain
The sun goes on and on
You can't go against the grain
You gotta let it go, let it go
Ah, empty days of rain
The sun goes on and on
You gotta let it go, let it go
I just wanna be left alone,
It's time to let it go
I just wanna be left alone
I think it's time you let it go

The sun doesn't always shine
I'm stuck in a solar eclipse
Even though I love you to bits
I'm done with the pain that we both inflict
Upon one another
It don't make me happy to watch you suffer
Run back to your mother
Tell her I turned out the same as the others
I don't know how to handle ya
All you do is make me angrier
Till I wanna manhandle ya
I'm contemplating whether to kiss ya or strangle ya
But I can't put my hands on ya
Like a burning flame in the burning flames
In hell with a dibs ain't walkin away
I can no longer stand with ya

(Chorus)

You took me high you took me low
You sold your soul with lies you told
And now it's time to ride alone
The lights will guide me home
The more I gave, the more you take
Now I'll be gone before you wake
Cos I just can't ignore my fate
Forget the day you saw my face

(I will be gone)
In the blink of an eye
(I will be gone)
With the stars in the sky
(I will be gone)
And you're askin me why
(I will be gone before you)

(Chorus)

I've been here for a period of time
So long that my brain has gone delirious inside
I think back on all the years that I've survived
Holding back the tears that keep appearing in my eyes
But now I'm yesterday's news
And I'm tomorrow's promise but I've got my mince pies
Open wide trying to visualize devils in disguise
Devz I'm like Picasso cause I've been through every shade of blue
I'm walking under rainy skies but the flame never died
It stayed alive cause I was made to ignite
Like dynamite I'm from the cold with heavy night
I'm riding tight notice flows slip and slide
Like a tire in the snow cause there ain't no grip on ice

I'm cold in the Moscow and it's minus 29
So welcome to my life, I've cleverly designed minds
Lost souls just trying to live the higher life

I've been here so long through the sadness and the blues
But it's funny how I'm still here, with the government and yesterday's news
I've been here so long through the sadness and the blues
But it's funny how I'm still here, with the government and yesterday's news

Devilin, I'm dangerous I'm dead guys
And every week forgotten like yesterday's headlines
I've been through the blues just like Elvis' best time
But I ain't wearing suede shoes, I've just got the best rhymes
I refuse to die, you could attempt to kill me twenty times
But I'll still rise like I'm the day walker Wesley Snipes
So let me stick my teeth into the game and bleed it dry
When I witness blood seeking through his veins
This has become apparent I've got a talent that these other rappers haven't
So what would be the point of bloody keeping it in chains
About my rhymes but when I'm talking about?
So cut the conversation cause I've been lower rating
Taking anything I'm pleasing taking off the aviation
To a better place in time better for leaving this place behind

I've been here so long, through the sadness and the blues
But it's funny how I'm still here, with the government and yesterday's news
I've been here so long, through the sadness and the blues
But it's funny how I'm still here, with the government and yesterday's news

I can't see no reason why I can't retain success
I just need a real good time away from all this stress
I can't see no reason why I can't retain success
I just need a real good time away from all this stress

I've been here so long, through the sadness and the blues
But it's funny how I'm still here, with the government and yesterday's news
I've been here so long, through the sadness and the blues
But it's funny how I'm still here, with the government and yesterday's news

Devlin, community outcast
and this one's for all the characters that've been forgotten at the present time.
I represent to the jobless
That have been made redundant
That have got four kids and no life to fund them
Ever since the wife and the husband both lost their jobs at the office in London
Now they feel financially trapped
And are locked with the rats in a dingy old dungeon
Take this young farther or two
Signing on and the government say their a family of spongers
He's like damn man we ain't got a penny or a pan
Let alone money for milk and nappies and trainers and jumpers
He got taken off side coz it's cheaper to pay Europeans to labour in numbers
How's he gonna take care of his younger's

(Chorus)
I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
And left in the streets where it's evil
Little kids surrounded by knives and heroin needles
I represent for the people
Let down by a nation
and left on the streets where it's evil
Community outcast, cold, tired and feeble

I represent for the homeless
Let down by a nation
More interested in war and invasion
When children are sleeping at railway stations
No home or money
They wish they could phone their mummy to put a hot meal in their tummy
So at night when the temperature drops
I'm asking you remember what you got
These kids go home to a cardboard box
They're the soul survivors
Warming their hands with a flickering flame in their lighters
All their life they've been frightened
On the streets with their head down
Knowing deep down inside that they've really been let down
By a country that's crippled
And I thought mankind was supposed to be simple.

(Chorus)

I represent single Mums
All alone on their own trying to put food in the mouths of her two sons
And the fathers gone, there's no cash flow, lack of income
But that's just the way it is
She counts fifteen needles pushing her pram on the way to the lift
And this is where Brown said it's safe to live and raise kids
She finds her way out of the block
With two kids in a pram and a rip and a stain in her top
She goes to sign on just to maintain the little she's got
For her kids sake
But they'll never seen a decent life
But they can dream and they'll sleep tonight
They've been hung out and left to dry
The kids are in bed, Mums left to cry.

(Chorus)

I represent for the old folk, that live alone
No family or kids at home
And all he wants is someone to speak to but nobody rings the phone
Sits at home in the dark, no electric
Since his wife passed, he can't accept it
He feels isolated, neglected
And now his council flats infested
So he goes to the shop for his papers
With a stick and he falls in the mud
The people around him all pulled him up
But to him that's just a reminder
He's old and he's weak with no one to love
He sees clouds up above
Another bad day in the diary
An old man one of many
Killed by society, strangled quietly.

(Chorus) x2

(feat. Yasmin)

[Devlin Verse 1]
A lifetime of dreaming, visualising paradise
I woke and rolled over and told my girl we're leaving
It's time to sacrifice a lot
cause you ain't happy with your job
and round here it's like nothin' seems appealing
So let me know you feel the same
throw your life into a case and we'll depart from Victoria this evening
And then embark upon a path of rediscovery
searching for the fruits from the lost garden of Eden
I'm wondering if I runaway and came back another day,
then would the young men who roll with metal put the guns away
and would the devil have took charge or would the slum be safe
I pray the latter's right for everybody's mumsy's sake.
and if I dissappear for years and reappear
would my natural intuition still be crystal clear?
Or would I have lost clarity?
In this trivial pursuit we're walking through so casually

[Yasmin - Chorus]
I gotta leave, I gotta go,
there's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free, I gotta be
somewhere that I can just be me.
and I run run runaway, run run runaway,
run run runaway, I runaway.

[Devlin Verse 2]
We share a last cigerette, then walk into the station
purchase two tickets to an alien destination
Board the train and witness pain on all the faces of multi-cultural races
but not me and my girl we're breaking free
like an escapist, cuz we need to escape this
and I for one have got my mind made up,
even if where we stay is make-shift
I can't remain in this domain of semi ape sh-t, because all I see is hatred
I wonder if I dissappeared how many men would miss me
or would they all forget like I erased my name from history?
I'm still trying yet to make a break within the chain of pain and misery
and vanish off the planet like a mystery.
and if I did return would things be the same or worse?
You see the gear stick shift and then the whip reverse and I'd be straight back on my travels
Burning rubber over gravel 'til we see the English Channel

[Chorus]

[Devlin Verse 3]
As the carriage pulls away, I pull my lady closer and I tell her she's okay
'Coz if we never broke the barricades today we'd always be afraid
and left to feel threatened in this dark and deadly maze
But now I've come of age, and as the train starts enterin' suburbia a smile comes across my face
The unwinding of eternal rage, that was locked up inside just like my mates behind prison gates
If I could runaway and come back another day,
I'd let the song play, on the summer's longest day.
Kick back and just enjoy the raves, with a lager and a spliff to blaze.
If I ever contemplate returning to this crazy place
I'd leave it long enough so they don't recognise my face
I'd let the song play, on the summer's longest day
While I roll upon the roads along the motorway

[Chorus]

I look down on this race I created and all I see is violence and hatred,
I shake my head as I whizz by in my space ship, the world is like my movie screen plus 18 'cause peace is far and few between. Ever since Eve took the Apple off the snake humanity sealed it's fate and then tragedy laid in wait. Killer tsunamis caused by tectonic plates, changing shape, at the the oceans base, releasing explosive rage. I'm just sat here in my burgundy robe observing the globe, pondering if the life that I created will ever learn to evolve. I filled your oceans full of fish and I put birds in the sky, and everyday you sit and curse on your lives, you ain't worshipping I. How did you manage to ruin such a beautiful planet? The turn of the times left my continents and countries ridden with murder and crime, earthly decline.

Chorus: People look cold like the freezin' rain, all truth be told, we don't see the same. People look cold, like the freezin' rain, like the freezin' rain, my son died in vain. I'll see you, I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you, I made this world for you. I'll see you, I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you, I made this world for you.

He made the world in seven days and six nights and then he rested on the seventh, now everybody's sinnin, it seems emptier in heaven Rest In Peace to everyone who lost their lives in Haiti and September the 11th, as well as 7/7. 'Cause I was on the train an hour before, I guess I got a higher purpose in the eyes of the Lord, who looks down from the sky into the fire and storm, and sees governments in unison like one big global Mafia, they're paying soldiers for a foe to blow a strap at ya'. From heavens door watch him maintain the war, to continue selling metal to the masses like Metallica. I feel although a lot of love has been lost, if I was God I'd be cross that my son had to die on the cross, cross cross. If I was God I'd be cross that my son had to die on the cross

Chorus: People look cold like the freezin' rain, all truth be told, we don't see the same. People look cold, like the freezin' rain, like the freezin' rain, my son died in vain. I'll see you, I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you, I made this world for you. I'll see you, I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you, I made this world for you.

How different is my life to another mans,
I'm just trying to earn a living in this cold, cold place.
Then escape to the summer sands, until my time has expired I'll be trying and
I finally found sometihng I'll never give up, finally found something I can be proud of (I finally found something I can be proud of)

Hustling, money coming in, there aint nothing worse than watching mummy struggling. suffering, and I can't tell you how easy it is but I can tell you how tough it's been. I know you're wondering, well first off, I would need a warehouse to store my troubles in. nobodies aware of what I'm covering up but one thing ______? my bloods bubbling. I'm stressed out, frustrated and hungry that's enough to send a man over the edge. and if it aint me against the world then I feel like I'm going against this whole country. nobodies on my side they wanna take my soul, body and my mind but I still got a problem with property so watch ______?

How different is my life to another mans,
I'm just trying to earn a living in this cold, cold place.
Then escape to the summer sands, until my time has expired I'll be trying and
I finally found sometihng I'll never give up, finally found something I can be proud of (I finally found something I can be proud of)

First off, for too many years I've been worse off now every single verse is bloody worth dosh, it's hard to always stay on track sometimes I swerve off, lifes a lesson, in one second you could learn a lot. give me the chance to accelerate and I'm burning off. because I've been left too long to rot in the eternal fog and I was always told to aim for the stars now I'm cruising through space like scotty and the captains log. deep space mind, don't hate me just make yours how I make mine? take time to stay tight, and when times get messy like a cage fight, we will soon see which individual suffers stage fright. I'll be ready on the double, my flows flexible and suple leave you buried like a dead man in the ruble. fully proud how my teams emerging from the tunel full of never ending trouble!

How different is my life to another mans,
I'm just trying to earn a living in this cold, cold place.
Then escape to the summer sands, until my time has expired I'll be trying and
I finally found sometihng I'll never give up, finally found something I can be proud of (I finally found something I can be proud of)

I was on the road all day or I was getting locked up. had find some other way to change my life up, _____________________? I was on the path but sometimes I fucked it right up. I was either thinking I should leave or I should quit, but something always telling me I don't know what it is, I got something I am proud of, I'm enjoying this, I know, I know, I know. I would always try my best but nothing ever worked, so someone please just tell me straight cause now I'm feeing worse. now my pockets___ on fire all my credits burnt. I always paid the price and I never learned. I was just a crazy kid, broke and I was lost, cause anytime I would flip and they would call the dogs, always scrapping, always fighting, show my teeth ____? music changed my life now I'm never lost.

How different is my life to another mans,
I'm just trying to earn a living in this cold, cold place.
Then escape to the summer sands, until my time has expired I'll be trying and
I finally found sometihng I'll never give up, finally found something I can be proud of (I finally found something I can be proud of)

Chorus:
I am nothing, nothing, nothing but a dreamer wishing on a star
I have nothing, nothing but pure imagination, hoping it can take me far.

Devlin:
If you long to be free, come for the ride you'll like what you see,
I reside in an infinite dream, and I fly in the sky like D double E
Exploring the depths of the sea, fish red yellow pink purple and green
Swin with sharks of the deadliest breed, mother nature is heaven indeed
Follow me on a marvelous trip, and insight into the bars that I script
Imagination is vital like timing, or the breaks in the car that you sit
I got a golden ticket like Charlie, to advance the position I'm in
And now I'm on the front line like an army, what the chances of trickle and thin.

Chorus:
I am nothing, nothing, nothing but a dreamer wishing on a star
I have nothing, nothing but pure imagination, hoping it can take me far
I keep repeating in the dark, she said it didn't matter who you are
I am nothing, nothing, nothing but a dreamer 'Nothing but a dream'

Devlin:
I float on the breeze, like the pollen and the birds and the bee's
I'll always have roots in the ends, Like bushes and tree's upon metropolitan streets
But I'll smile when I'm dreaming, I'm somewhere far on the wings of a phoenix
Ow what a marvelous evening, I met Bob Marley and sparked up a 3 skin
And spoke about common affairs, and various ways to build and repair
Look deep in the depths of your mind, and you'll find that your imagination is there
I can't stop till my family crest is cemented in time, and I'm half way there
And then when I float on the breeze, I'll leave the throne to my heir.

Chorus:
I am nothing, nothing, nothing but a dreamer wishing on a star
I have nothing, nothing but pure imagination, hoping it can take me far
I keep repeating in the dark, she said it didn't matter who you are
I am nothing, nothing, nothing but a dreamer 'Nothing but a dream'

Devlin:
Through the stress and pain I've seen, is it wrong to dream a dream
Everyone holds the right, to have some hope in life
Through the stress and pain I've seen, is it wrong to dream a dream
When you find one hold it tight, it just might be your guiding light.

Chorus:
I am nothing, nothing, nothing but a dreamer wishing on a star
I have nothing, nothing but pure imagination, hoping it can take me far
I keep repeating in the dark, she said it didn't matter who you are
I am nothing, nothing, nothing but a dreamer 'Nothing but a dream'

Listen,
They wanna build me up,
Postpone my attempt to kill my bars,
well you better have an army,
cause' its day one all of my boys show love,
now I'm here where I should be,
when I'm high of a night I wonder where I would be,
on the streets where the thieves and the hoods be,

(The world still turns around)

As life continues
and with the lyrics and rhymes I bring you
I'm telling you strife you been through
might make your heart feel colder than pingu,
i stand in a place,
contemplating distant memories
you have never seen so many tear drops in a place
but a voice in my brain keeps telling me

CHORUS:
(They build me up, to break me down,
but the world still turns around
They build me up, to break me down,
but the world still turns around)

yeah, as the road spins on its axis
I feel trapped in a box like matchsticks
but I've got the UK head over heels
like gymnastics on a mad practice in back flips
but they wanna steel my career like silicon mastic
some days when I wake I tell myself I'm feeling fantastic
cause' whatever occurs
time won't stop the earth still turns
every lesson I've learnt
I reckon it's worth the pain and seconds of hurt
so as the world rotates
isolate and float through space
a never ending cycles occurin'
a carousel that won't stop turning

Chorus:
They build me up, to break me down,
but the world still turns around
They build me up, to break me down,
but the world still turns around.

They wanna build me up to break me down
they show love when i was heard up
and now I'm coming up it seems they wanna break me down
they wanna build me up to break me down
they show love when I was heard up
but now I'm coming up it seems they wanna break me down.

Chorus:
They build me up, to break me down,
but the world still turns around,
They build me up, to break me down,
but the world still turns around.

Verse 1

According to the aztec calender 2012 is the end of the world
And time will unwind with a celestual cross in in the skys in sync
And in line with itself so forget life as you know it
If you wanna view life in the eyes of a poet
Peer through mine in this fearful time
Where wages are cut but tax keeps growing
When the globe collapses on it's axis
Watch men, women and children with axes
Fighting for food cause?
And they haven't got jack shit
It looks like disasters back with a sting like elastic
But on a whole new scale now I'm talking inter galactic
Genocide in a moment of madness

Chorus
As some set on the end of days
Capital city's burning in flames
Ocean swepped your posessions away
Welcome to the end of days

As some set on end of days
There aint no escaping natures rage
And I've never seen an atheist pray
Until the approaching of judgment day

Verse 2

Buildings burning
Pilgrims verming
Children are serving
Searching for earnings
Old bill are lerking
Circle the circuit
Cctv cameras are perving
Don't park there if you aint got a permit
Murders occuring but low level crime is the type their concerned with
Yeah with a microchip bill gates is a serpent in person
You relied on emergency service 999 says a lot when you turn it
The devil in disguise all loves been deserted
I'm watching animosity spread like herpes
I visualise allien crafts decending on earthlings
And all homosapiens left in the dirt like worms when there squirming
I smell petrol burning

Chorus
As some set on the end of days
Capital city's burning in flames
Ocean swepped your posessions away
Welcome to the end of days

As some set on end of days
There aint no escaping natures rage
And I've never seen an atheist pray
Until the approaching of judgment day

Verse 3

Insight into a world of decline
Like michelle nostradammas mind
A moment of peace is harder to find
The thicker the skin the darker the mind
? accompany stars that are sent from the sky
A lot of men are repending tonight
You wasted your life now wave it goodbye
New world orders an anogram of now
So we aint got time to be standing around
Devil's on your doorstep
He's got you in a tight grip like a forestep thundering down
