about
A year in the making (and still being completed), but I thought it was worth getting out whilst still relevant! Big ups to everyone, what a wild ride this has been eh...
lyrics
well I don’t know about you but I am truly through this,
This new way of living seems truly stupid,
The serving we’ve been given is removing cupid,
Cus the love is lost on other’s when they’re room is humid,
got the fever? Then leave - yeah, you’ve got the disease - scared,
Starting with the feeling ill at ease - and now your tea’s bare, Devoid of the flavour to savour- so NHS, save us,
Just doctor and tailor our dinners, and give us some with greater flavour
This is ground control to Tommy Major, the hatred is major, it’s made us increase our failures YEAH
When the thousands are dead,
And very many of them is lying on the government’s head
And this isn’t blaming, it’s raging and raving the main men should’ve been saving, instead they were remaining
Sitting off, money bags, belly laughing scum bags,
Cronyism, toryism, switch the schism, attack
______________
Lockdown, sitting in pyjamas and the socks now, Don’t go out, the bad virus is about,
Duck down - lookout! And get the mask up on your snout now,
We’re locked down - and seems we’re never getting out
______________
Belly rubbing, back slapping mother fucker’s, a lack of action
This simple faction is the factor that in practise brought a lack of fairness, a lack of awareness of what’s happened, I’m sure we’d all be laughing if it wasn’t such a catastrophic action,
We’re being cared for by the careless,
It’s all self-interest, no self-awareness,
So hell is where, if we remain this scared, this, ship’s headed for, last call for more preparedness
In this new situation we’re facing, it’s basically hastened our habits to stay in
But autonomy is something that I wanna see, but honestly the situation’s worse than the economy, it’s
The opposite of bliss, no mates and no play,
It’s no joke when sun rays are replaced by the snow flakes
Cold place - this is no place to meet old mates
I’m staying in, I’m solitarily confined all day
____________________
So thus far I’ve failed this, I’ve failed to regail this failure of fellas to remain sane, they trust,
No-one and nothing, but can you blame something that seems sane based on the world’s current place, suffering
Succotash - these suckers are asking for backlash,
What do you expect when billions of public tax,
Public cash is used to line the pockets of their mate’s dads,
I hate that - I straight rage when I blaze raps,
Sat at home, all alone, laid prone, glued to the phone,
There’s nothing better so just settle, wait for better zones,
Makes space for new modes, but do you and do pose,
Zoom through with no clothes, renew old prose,
It’s got to get better, and better, and better,
Settling for any lesser would be stressful, and just add to pressure,
So get clever, lift above and wait for better weather, It’s been one hell of a year, we made it here apart - together
