mayday (uk) - estates a state lyrics

rip h

rip harry

rip shane

spitting these bars in the place i was born at
still have respect wipe my feet on the doormat
lower cl-ss broken home like most
another part of the system soon turn ghost
round here we weren’t built to win n-body famous where i lived
deep in the darkest parts of the bits same in colour to the harshest abyss and from young greeted by death’s kiss when h got k!lled by feds i was lost
ones who are suppose to protect and serve, round him down when he stepped of the kerb
what’s worse, just left church, had no chance, got blindsided
another one dead, dead toll keeps on rising and climbing when will it end?

it won’t
living in a cesspit of lies and deceit
where people will lay out the carpet for you and then pull it back from straight under your feet
and they’ll kick you when you’re down
they’ll probably spit on you to
i just wanna trade cards cus i never had a shiny mewtwo
see a girl in the hood and wink, nowadays man are out here getting hoodwinked
they better step and think is it really worth these man having kids?
cus they’re just kids themselves, haven’t even left the ends, haven’t even seen the world, so don’t throw it away over just one girl
cus it’s not worth it you have purpose believe me i was you
no it’s not certain gotta put work in but it can come true
tryna show the power of the people from a council estate
round here fam it’s a state
let me tell you what goes on and who is to blame

clients and buyers
doers and diers
nittys and fiends
skets and debts
wins and losses
doom and gloom
and bare youts from underage s-x
man become lifeless why is life like this back then i could never see hope
somehow tho i fought thru the crisis and even now i still struggle to float

youngs teflon told me hustlers don’t die, so my friends are dead but still so alive, that’s why i fight and ride back there right by there side
when i wrote that bar down i got gooseb-mps
out when i was movin’ in the cold yeah i got gooseb-mps it’s the same thing, same feeling
i’m not a soldier raised in a barracks, i’m a warmonger raised in a battle
stood with fallen comrades as they were slain like cattle in battle
surrounded by torment feels like i lost at life and this is my forfeit, reality’s altered, no it is not straight forward, i’m still stood here tryna work it out
sometimes waking up from nightmares knowing that reality is so much worse
knowing this place made and raised me and not knowing if that’s a gift or a curse
walking back thru things i’ve done realised it’s hard being from the kerbs
from that i know i can’t drown my demons cus they just learnt how to surf

i’m tryna lead the resurgence, it’s needed urgent
can’t make changes hiding behind curtain it’s a person burden
if i don’t care about the ends then noone else will, so believe i will
strive to make change, not die in a vain, i flipped up the script and then changed the game
brumtown, 0121, kingstanding that’s where mans from
b44, up in the north, fly flag for us with full force
always played with the hand i’m dealt and now i’m winning with te hand i’m dealt
trust me there’s no tricks up the sleeve just hardwork and belief in myself
