Mic Righteous Fire In The Booth Part 2 Lyrics
First track
We trynna' find somebody look in my eyes you'll see i'm somebody
Inside one's body your somebody, i'm seeing drug abuses in the A&E lobby
Could've been somebody, should've seen one's body
Looking sorry like I just wanna love somebody,
Wanna see, wanna touch, wanna hug somebody, put the drugs down
Be around somebody, but all I see is sorrow so I down some voddy (vodka)
And we walk around with a pocket full of pound signs,
Ignore that beggar outside the offe, got smell some coffee, gotta help somebody,
See a young girl go and sell one's body and we ain't got the heart to go and tell somebody,
It doesn't take a real man to kill somebody, it take's a man of his word to heal somebody,
Yeah, when the economy collapses and the world stops spinning on it's axis,
We're being dragged through hell backwards,
Mother nature can't take the weight, the population inflates,
Global warming's still a threat that we ignore cause we ain't stressed,
There's a war going on outside your doorstep, I wish these politicians would talk less,
All we have is eachother in the end, keep in contact with your brothers and your friends,
How can we praise a man's death? Put it on the front page of every paper,
They're playing with out heads, I feel something coming in the wind,
Just look at all the trouble that we're in, this music thing was God's gift,
It's only right that you get what you give.
So what comes after the storm, if the karma's before it?
Stuck in the dark of the night, just left scars in the morning,
In the heart of the riots, I admire your defiance, but nah I can't be supportive,
The roads are on fire, the police are on horses,
We live or let die, these are our choices for the people in;
Hackney, Ealing, people in Croydon, Birmingham, buildings were burning 'em
People destroyed them, the speaking is pointless, I feel like silence is best,
As the riots spread like fire inside their heads of the youth,
Who are looking through eyes of men, without guidance in a violent environment,
And when the bubble boils and it finally bursts, find the right target before your fire first,
Say goodbye to the shops where you buy your burn,
It's their own community that the fire burnt,
I said I feel for the man that lost his life's work,
Everything he ever had, just turned to ash,
Mum was in the flat lying on the couch,
Little did she know that there's a fire in the house, nah,
Picture me when nothing is left, picture this the final letter,
No light at the end, no, screw that piece of paper up, write that again,
We all lie and pretend, it's only right we confess,
I try my best, I write to express, get it off my chest,
Does that mean i'm weaker than the rest?
My blood gets pumped for my heart to the ink that's in my pen,
From my pen it get's projected to the speaker to your head,
Don't think i'm a leader, believe me, i'm not anybody,
I'm just Rocky, i'm sorry, sorry I ain't strong enough either,
Sorry for leading you on, sorry for leaving mr song,
Sorry for leaving before I even made peace with my mum,
Trynna be righteous left me in the wrong,
Sorry for saying sorry so much in this song,
But the same bold capital pops up in my head,
I ain't sorry for nothin', well there's somethin' I said,
I ain't sorry for nothin'
It's kinda' hard being righteous,
Especially when you come from a community as deprived as mine is,
And you put your trust in the government who are too busy fightin' to come and guide ya'
Put you in a vicious cycle, push you to one side,
And you sit there in silence, in a bitter society,
Where we're fighting amongst eachother and die violently,
I sit there and think how right I will be if I let that slide,
I write for the people that got left behind,
Yeah I said I write for the people,
I write,
I said I write for the people that get left behind,
I write for the people,
I write for the people that got left behind,
I said I write Fire In The Booth, Charlie Sloth, Radio 1
Second Track
I came with words of a broken man,
Working a hopeless plan,
Although the plan was hopeless,
Work it I know we can,
They gave the underdog the upper-hand,
I wish you had a brain, so you could understand,
How desperate does somebody have to be for you to love 'em?
Since when does anyone go anywhere from doing nothing?
They say just look at how much we've done in one year,
Had to go back to where I came from, come here,
I'm Charlie Sheen, i've only got one year and it's... gone,
It's the year of the Yob,
I told Charlie Sloth i've only got one fear and it's God,
I think he's hearing me Sloth,
They must be hearing me don,
They got their hearing or not, huh, you can hear me or not?
Yo, I nearly forgot i've been wearing this same top for like 80 days on the chart,
They say wait up,
These days I don't wait for the clock,
Cause i'll go on my skates it's a race to the top,
I've got accustomed to the fast life,
And I bark like a dog cause I think I was one in my past life,
Just signed my first deal, but it won't be the last time,
Put fire in the booth, then I put fire in the house,
Ask Richard from HardFi, I live this, I can't lie,
Last time I was here you almost heard my heart cry,
I'm like a bird that can't fly,
Is this the price you pay for a hard life?
I wouldn't buy your chain for half price,
I could turn your brightest day to a dark night,
At this stage of my career, it's clear I can't die
And here's the reason why I can't fall;
I'm leading by example, living proof, in the booth, on the stage, interviews,
Nothin' new, friends only trust a few,
Still get out with the same pals cause only some are true,
But the rest just come and go,
Some are holding up the queue,
Can't expect you all to care,
Cause the world shares different views,
All I do is bark, big zoot, bars,
Still out the window with the instro and blast,
Still asking why I get the info last?
And when I get close, somethin' gets broke, glass,
Sh*t don't last, it's no bar,
Yeah it's no myth, how'd I get so far?
It happens so quick, guess man just won't quit,
Nah, Kelsey what happened to her?
Same time my brother Habeeb, what happened to him?
Like, so many of us trapped in the pen,
If you're listening just know I got your back to the end,
Stay in control of yourself,
We all say we goin' throug hell,
But atleast you ain't alone in that cell,
Stuck in a situation where no-one can help,
Counting down them precious seconds,
In your mind is regret,
Brother just use them precious seconds as your time to reflect,
That goes for all my young offenders living life in the ends,
I think God went wrong and put a mind in our chest,
And our heart's inside of our heads,
Is there light at the end of this tunnel we're in?
Where everybody struggles to live,
Pakistan's a ocean, bodies in the brown water floating,
Everybody forgets if Syria falls apart we watch the problems progress,
Yo, when will it end?
Ayo, Sloth drop that bomb sound effect on the press,
If I could take it all back, would I have said what I said?
Yeah man, I just said it again,
Your the one's I represent and will 'til there's nothing left, once again,
If they wanna they can censor it,
But these are your beliefs so I can see why your so sensitive,
Forget that BM, Benz or Bentley sh*t,
We collecting benefits,
See that chain around your neck i'll strangle to to death with it,
I'm a terrorist, they won't speak to police intelligence,
Blew up the whole scene, won't leave no evidence,
My mixtape was free tell me how the hell i'm sellin' it?
Sell it to appeal to the women,
I've been real they just feel how i'm spittin',
Still got bear dirty dishes and bills in the kitchen,
Life's real for the women, still our children are in it,
It's a evil world we live in the time is night,
Any innocent child is a child of mine,
We stand under one sun, no man is divine,
What gives you the right to kill a man and his wife?
You hear the bombs drop, we see the ash in the sky,
This what happens when the planets collide,
It's got me thinkin' about my life,
Like I don't wanna die without saying goodbye,
Yo, don't wonder why i'm saying this twice,
Cause life has made me mad,
The old me left and he ain't been back,
Said i'd rather get jumped by 18 man,
Next month, i'm a poor mums baby's dad,
And that right there was my worst nightmare,
Now that your alive, Elijah i'm right here,
And i'll be in your corner when it's time to fight fear,
When you arrived I cried tears,
Feels like you've been alive for light years,
I'm trying to provide with the one thing I can do in this life,
So before I finish up this for my avid listener,
To my own art i've become a prisoner,
Cause some music we make for ourselves,
But this music dawg, is straight to the shelves,
And my team gon' stack p till it hit's the ceiling,
Travel the world give it back to the kids that need it,
We all about actions, what good is speaking?
Still Mic, still righteous, still spit with meaning,
We saw the UK flying so we jumped on board,
Real recognize real, the love is pure!
