flame griller - balance lyrics

(exp)
i was…thinking of quitting but decided just to chill a bit
married, pushing 30, got a house but i am still a kid
prefer to stay up late and wake up late, smoke a spliff and drink
the grown up knows i shouldn’t and should use some chuffin’ discipline
not much point to life if not you’re livin it
but not much point burning for half as long cos your light was twice as brilliant
too old to be doin’ well for my age
too young to be giving up anything at this stage
i just get rid of it
inconveniences and time wasters that thrive making my life basically 5 eighths of it nice
the rest is admin
patience in line
waiting for my opportunity to break out and find the sun rays and the shine
sittin’ in nice environments
sipping a pint of heineken
isn’t this nice, i’m finding life isn’t a grind i’m smiling and
i’ve risen from schneidy mindlessness
hatin’ what i don’t like
enjoy what i do
ignore the rest, if you don’t mind
forget your head, clear your diary of negativity
others seem to travel faster, that’s the theory of relativity
all this pessimism seems, like you’re trailing and beat
but you’ve gotta fail to succeed or you’ll fail to succeed

(addverse)
now trust me i can tell what you’re thinking cos i’ve been thinking it
yeah, rap sank but i swam from that sinking ship
and brought a little bit back from the boat
to plant the seed in the hope that it grows
and takes hold, so the scene can evolve
and in itself reap the benefit
rappers sacrificing themselves in attempt to sell a hit
but still i keep it relevant if anything, and
i never sell out cos that’s never been a part of my plan
i remember why i started as an artist in my heart it is cathartic
doesn’t matter what position i am charted
if the mainstream’s pop, then the stream remains r-t-rded
in a stagnant cess pool of name any artist
so i lose faith, switch off, two faced hip-hop has left me with a sour taste
listen and allow my grapes to grace the taste buds of anybody listening
i’m trying to find a balance to stop me from falling in again

(jnd)
exp was thinking of quittin, i was thinkin’ of quittin too
forget rap, and watch the telly in the sitting room
but sometimes, all you need is a break
appreciate what you’re missing, no more beats on the brain
no more crate diggin’, leave the domain
you want the reasons explained, it’s never easy, life can creep in the way
before you know it, many seasons have changed
now you’re feeble and grey, 50 years for a measly wage
just enough to cover feed and ya stay
but you’ll never own the house that you sleep in and
really if you feel what i say, peace to you, you know what’s eating my brain
not the booze speed weed or cocaine
its my moods, needs, greed and the pain
that you feel tryna keep it contained
fill the pages, all my demons within reach of my scheme to retain
some sanity, releasing my strain, coz it’s a balance that can easily sway
you what…?
