Track 2

As the days keep turning

As the world keeps burning

As my soul keeps learning

Tears fall from the castles around my heart

My teacher told me I'm a side man I told her to remember me

Now they wanna email me asking if I can talk to the kids in assembly

Now man are selling out Wembley

Now man are twenty first century

Statistics say I should be dead or in jail

But sh*t ain't the way that it's meant to be

Breaking the cycle

They wish I was trapped in the system

A 6 foot tall black guy like me

That would've been a rap in an instant

That's why I gotta speak my mind I'mma say how it is and I never say sorry

Keep quiet like Winston and Tracy fam - over my dead body

Too much TV too many newspapers got a ni**a thinking evil

Got me thinking I'm looking at my enemy when I'm looking at my own people

Notice when a white man looks at my watch I think he's trying to pay me a compliment

When a black man looks at my watch I think he's trying to knock my confidence Mad)

I was in Amsterdam smoking blue cheese and I had an epiphany

All these negative preconceptions just bring more negativity

Instead of investing in new businesses they buy new artillery

Everybody in the hood wants to spray a 16 and I don't mean lyrically

Underdog psychosis spreading around in the hood like flu

Security guards follow me around like I ain't got ￡2 to pay for my juice

Now all this b******t got me smoking this stupid zoot

Tell Boris he's lucky that I made it rapping or I would've been looting too

Niggas ain't got GCSEs still don't wanna work for a minimum wage

These days man will murder a man for a box of grade

Every time the 38 barrel spins Martin Luther turns in the grave

It's real life no computer game we're living in the streets of rage
