Streets - Turn The Page lyrics
rate meThat's it<br />
Turn the page on the day, walk away <br />
'Cause there's sense what I say <br />
I'm 45th generation Roman <br />
But I don't know 'em <br />
Or care when I'm spitting <br />
So return to your sitting position and listen it's fitting <br />
I'm miles ahead and they chase me <br />
Show yer face on TV, then we'll see <br />
You're can't do half, my crew laughs <br />
At yer rhubarb and custard verses <br />
Yer rain down curses but I'm waving, <br />
Yer hearse is driving by <br />
Streets riding high, with the beats in the sky <br />
All stare, eyes glazed <br />
Garage burnt down, the fire raged <br />
For 40 days and in 40 ways <br />
But through the blaze they see it fade <br />
The sea of black, the beaming heat on their faces <br />
Their figure emerges from the wasteage <br />
Eyes transfixed with a piercing gaze <br />
One hand clutching a sword raised to the sky <br />
They wonder how, they wonder why <br />
The sky turns white it all becomes clear <br />
They felt lifted from their fears <br />
They shed tears in the light <br />
After 6 dark years <br />
Young bold soldiers, the fire burns <br />
Cracks and smoulders <br />
5 years older and wiser <br />
The fires are burning on fire, never tire <br />
Slave warriors in the forests and on hire <br />
We sing, hear the strings rising <br />
The war's over, the bells ring <br />
Memories fading, soldiers slaying <br />
Looks like Geezers raving <br />
The hazy fog over the Bull ring<br />
The lazy ways the birds sing <br />
A new babys born every day <br />
Few men may be scorned today <br />
But look at things the other way <br />
Cos it may well be yer final day <br />
And then the crowds roar they slay, they all say <br />
I produce this using only my bare wit <br />
Gimme a jungle a garage beat and admit defeat, <br />
Use war and past injury as my metaphor and simile <br />
Get all applications into before the deadline <br />
Cos it's a fine line between strife or crime <br />
And a life of crime <br />
But you will reach the day, and it's all mine <br />
You can take it or leave, I shake <br />
And reveal stage tricks like Jimi Hendrix <br />
In the afterlife Gladiators meet their maker <br />
Float through the wheat fields and lakes of blue water<br />
To the next life from the fortress <br />
Away from the knives and slaughter <br />
To their wives and daughters <br />
Once more before the law judges over all of us<br />
Cos in this place you'll see me <br />
Brace yourself, cos this goes deep<br />
I'll show you the secrets the sky and the birds <br />
Actions speak louder than words <br />
Stand by me my apprentice <br />
Be brave, Clench fists
