Today I Met Myself |
| I get the petrol don’t forget to buy a couple of sweets |
| Sometimes I like to treat myself if only once a week |
| Open the door, get in the car, sit in the driverís seat |
| Peer into the rearview mirror and im staring back at me |
| When I say me I don’t mean me as in my own reflection |
| Hardly slept so I suspect im staring at some weird projection |
| My brain has made to tell me alcohol abuse is wrong |
| Whereupon, I turn around and realise somethings going on: |
| Trust me son, this ain’t a con, you have to trust your eyeballs |
| Know those eyes are fine because they’re mine so don’t be stifled |
| You’re slightly balder now and yes your pubes are turnin grey |
| But you’ve travelled back in time cos there’s important shit to say |
| Don’t do that (nope) / they’ll try to dupe ya |
| Don’t do this (nah) / they’ll try to shoot ya |
| Don’t do her (grim!) / she didn’t suit ya |
| Today I met myself and I told me bout my future |
| So im sat in the front and sat in the back, as you do havin a chat |
| Asking bout the change in rap and where the musics at |
| I’m careful not to tell myself entirely everything |
| I’ve come here just to warn me as to what the future brings: |
| Oi, Listen, El, surely you can see that you’re me |
| I’m you, look at the lips, you really can’t ignore me |
| I know that in that bag there’s ginger beer and curly-wurlys |
| It’s kinda hurly burly but you must believe my story |
| I know you tasted glory, was all hunky dory |
| Now you’re standing on the borderline, today’s the day your sure to find |
| You don’t know where to draw the line, this is the start of your decline |
| That’s why I came back exactly 15 years before your sordid crime |
| Don’t do that (nope) / they’ll try to dupe ya |
| Don’t do this (nah) / they’ll try to shoot ya |
| Don’t do her (grim!) / she didn’t suit ya |
| Today I met myself and I told me bout my future |
| Freakin out, I been sneakin bout |
| Feelin edgy bout the fact that I’ve seeked me out |
| Im freakin out, I been sneakin bout |
| And I’ve sat inside my car and started speakin bout |
| What’s yet to come |
| It seems most of what the future has to hold for me is decent |
| But recently my future self was caught having a threesome |
| One of the girls was underage with fake identification |
| The other one was legal but her father’s occupation |
| Was head of a group of hoodlums from just south of the Thames |
| The entire episode was captured from a hidden lens |
| They found some substances inside the glove box of my car |
| So I’m front page of the sun, the mirror and the daily star |
| I’m either goin down for twenty or thugs are out to get me |
| My walls are bout to crumble which is why I went and sent me |
| Back in time, prevent the crime, avoid Jane and Amy |
| It seems my future selfís a prick but really who can blame me |
| Don’t do that (nope) / they’ll try to dupe ya |
| Don’t do this (nah) / they’ll try to shoot ya |
| Don’t do her (grim!) / she didn’t suit ya |
| Today I met myself and I told me bout my future |
