Austerity |
| No introduction is required |
| You are now entering the land of the inspired |
| My name’s Awate and I’m known in certain homes around the globe to spit poems |
| that make you pick up the phone |
| And dial 9 three times. |
| Shine like street signs |
| One of my favourite hobbies is to find and beat swine |
| I can’t help it. |
| They’ve killed too many people of my colour and my class for |
| me to sit and be quiet |
| So why do we riot? |
| Well, how about the government are just a bunch of liars |
| Cut funding for fun and wonder why there’s street violence |
| It’s a joke. |
| So I give you something to quote so you can shove it down their |
| throats |
| But I digress and I confess to being one of the best so I stick out my chest |
| and take your shots without a vest |
| Never suppress my thoughts |
| You can try to arrest me for inciting violence but I just describe what I see |
| behind my eyelids |
| And what I hear — are rappers who are fakers |
| Say they get the bread but they’ve never been to the bakers |
| Now tell me — how is that tolerated? |
| Modern day society’s severely |
| discombobulated |
| And this rapping situation is a mess |
| A guy’s talking like Scarface when he worked for the feds |
| And how is selling drugs a thing to look up to, when you answer to the wrath of |
| the lord that’s up above you? |
| This makes no sense. |
| I’m lost |
| Girls are wearing nothing but lingerie and a cross |
| And man are holding nothing but a grudge and a Glock |
| If this is just the start I need a moment to just stop |
| (Inhale) |
| And breathe |
| And show you that I’m one of London’s number one MCs |
| And all they ever talk about is ps and their greed |
| While I write about my roots, they rhyme about smoking trees |
| It’s a mess. |
| Songs nowadays are about sex and cess |
| And they all think they’re really cool, the way that they dress |
| I either leave or make a change. |
| I can’t take the stress |
| Everywhere I go, I’ve got police stopping me |
| In the Square Mile you’ve got the rich committing robbery |
| I feel like I’ve got the whole world on top of me |
| So whenever I protest I punch a fed probably |
| Well that’s a definite |
| Civil disobedience — I’m tryna set a precedence |
| I wanna see your anger or whatever there is left of it |
| Until every mansion is decrepit or desolate |
