shigz - london state of mind lyrics
(verse 1: nile kamose)
my conscious is renovating, existence is generating
resistance for ever waiting, these bullets be penetrating
its devastating, ive been holding for too long
i look straight, i look back, maybe thats two wrongs
walking in this cold world an eye of a leopard
pulling out the smith & will, like i was a legend
wasn’t raised to be a follower, mind of a shepard
dividing a second & may be burn your eyes wid a lemon, i tell em….. fake n—as man deyll run in your house, wid a gun in a pouch and probably put the gun to your mouth
came to earth in ninety three, born as a rebel
i went to pilgrimage, i was throwing stones at the devil
had to show em da level & tell em whos holding the medal
there tryna push the pedal while putting fire up in the kettle
slinging rocks, on the block, they weren’t sedimentary
all these cops on there job tryna k!ll me mentally
(chorus)
(x2)
its the life of the realness (x3)
its a london state of mind
sound of that raw hip hop (background)
(verse 2: nile kamose)
young black boy from the west born ninety three
tryna side-step the devil he be fighting me
eyeing me, defining me, the mayans speak, supplying treats
so i sit back, recline my feet, align some beats
make dreams reality, progress so gradually, downfalls there has to be
break through calamities, reach beyond capacity, write with my own strategy
i do this for the hopeless, homeless & all the families
i’m tryna make some changes, only for the better
i ain’t jay but ill make a nation go roc a fella
white dust the cocaine, u try to take for no pain, no way
the manufacturers have you with no brain
i see three (c3) they try hate (h8) formula for propane
this is for my brothers and sisters ain’t talking coldplay
feel like im buried alive, living underground
lotta snakes try bugging my life, its time to cut em out
chorus (x2)
(verse 3: nile kamose)
climbing high as eiffel, were part of the devils cycle
while sins are becoming sweeter, you get a taste of the trifle
higher doses of prayers, they call me the demon slayer
surrounded by the portrayer, who bought a system of layers
to cover the shadowed darkness and peculated the strayer’s
a hidden book to feed on and gave advice to the mayors
holding back to my spirit, releasing a sickness with it
your either out or your in it, a mirror ghost of my image
rare breed h0m-sapien, unusual and kind of different
the colour black hits the pigment, i fell off and broke a ligament
climbing at an incline, then im uplifting
attracted to my success and the failures what im resisting
poetic art’ to paint u a vivid picture description
my heart and soul im encrypting, my members never evicting
digging deep for this treasury, in the thought of my legacy
when i remember me in the hidden mist of my memory
