aaron unknown - sbtv - warm up session (chapter 2) lyrics
“yo big up sbtv, hold tight jamal edwards. second opportunity here i really appreciate that, um, was gonna get a guitarist for this one live but we’re here now so let’s do this”
yo, listen
my intelligence should’ve had me sitting at the top but it’s free world that held me back from the right cl-ss
i couldn’t focus in school; poetry was the only highlight in my life and i thrive when i write bars
then i see my peers envy the olders
rolling on road in a german whip
they’re smoking spliff riding shotgun with a swaggered up chick with a nice -rs-
reality hits them and it’s back to the bits with the fully load clips and they ride hard
spending most nights on a night shift with a cl!ck quick shift and the nine bars
they say there’s light at the end of the tunnel but for my generation it’s quite dark
’cause i’m driven by materialism i was driven by the fact that they might starve
as a matter of fact the yutes living in the flats are the ones with the nice hearts
i’ve been blessed with this opportunity and because of that i can stay on the right path
always had a nice heart, but believe me i didn’t have a bright past
but that’s just motivation to buy mum a nice yard
so for now i’m planting a seed not the type blaze in the park with your g’s
the root to success, my life was messed up i want a yard with a key
but not in this concrete jungle
home’s where the heart is [so are the p-ssers of green?]
see the blurred vision a result of division turn on the television
yutes blasting their heat
who’s making decisions? lacking wisdom
like here in britain they wanna arm the police and it’s dangerous
nowadays i don’t really wanna say so much so it’s hard to release
but at the same time, don’t want anyone to think that i talk through my -rs- when i speak
gangster rapper nah i’m an amb-ssador to finding the balance between disaster and peace
and the universe blessed me with this i can appreciate and embrace it
remembering times where my house cold and my hand me downs were outdated
and i was that yute, that yute with the battered and bruised up trainers
not enough hot water for a bath so at times we wash in the basin
but let’s take a second to think about this journey i’m taking
’cause it started from the bottom and now i’m here and i swear this feeling is amazing
but recently i’ve been distracted only focusing to get wasted
twenty fifteen it’s time to refocus i can’t begin to tell the stress my mum’s facing
no way, no longer will we live a life that is basic
and while my head is up in this sp-ceship my feet can stay firmly planted; ’cause i’m a product of my environments and i’m chilling with the right faces
like i got x-ray vision now, see clear through them energy drainers
and i know many men have turned bitter
i try [screw but boo?] to you haters
’cause my b-lls are finally in motion while i see you snoozing in the same places
but if you know me you know i’ve been putting in a hundred percent back then from the day shift
and nowadays putting in a hundred and ten you could say that i’ve earned my payslips
but, hittin’ my targets. she’ll remember my roots if i’m famous
but i see man try coming out the woodwork that were never there when a brother was aimless
the same ones who couldn’t give a f-ck if a couple years back i was stamped in the pavement
so give me one good reason why i should spare you a thought when i’m swimming in acres
it’s funny, i used to be poor getting letters from the bailiffs –
pressure on mummy, i had to bag draws and i’d sell them to my neighbours
but now designers are calling me up to open shows abroad so you see me in the papers
i’m an example of cure being better than prevention and for that i can never be shameless
“it’s u.n.k.n.o.w.n. – under new knowledge now overcoming world negativity, hold tight jamal edwards, sbtv uh”
