[Verse 1]

After a three year hiatus reading legislative papers

Taking no kind of favours, trying to get me on the A-List

I made it through the noise of my neighbours

Here to bring you the cadence

I’m claiming everything I’m owed, I’m a lyrical bailiff

Who gives a fuck if the radio decides not to play this?

I am done with complaining

Cos when it’s raining through the storm I am sailing

This is not a practice, not a drill, prep or training

This is real and I saying how feel

So I guess I wear my heart on my cuff-links

Every time I write yo there’s substance

The words flow with no reluctance, this my dictum, my judgement

Emotive in abundance

So I could never tell you I don't love this

Making music is not an encumbrance

It took me round the planet

The circumference, just like it was a conference

Where people pay me with nothing but compliments

Of confidence in my accomplishments, I am here


[Verse 2]

(Let me tell you what this is...)

This is my all day everyday

Back in the square ring, heavyweight

Bare-knuckle bruise, cause a belly-ache

Southpaw uppercut, don’t hesitate to detonate

Carter-Mathers renegade, call a paramedic need to medicate

Cos I am so ill cos I emanate from Hack area

Bacteria, now you say

The best in the UK don’t sound like he UK

But I cannot be kicked or be pushed, reference Lupe

Lyrically I split ya wig, I meat cleave your toupee

And spit so cold though I’m rolled in my duvet

A new day, a new dawn and fresh like a newborn

So tight need a shoehorn

You might need a coupon to get this

It might leave you restless

The nexus between now and breakfast

I still have you breathless

And my best is yet to come, I’m a veteran

The perfect candidate, fuck elections, I am here


[Verse 3]

I’m in my prime right now, I’m so alive right now

Rhyme nymphomaniac, there’s no depriving my wow

MC’s are car windows, I’m winding them down

I’m surviving the times, I arrived, I am proud

Like a Kindergarten baby eating sugar I am loud

And won't stop making sounds when there’s company, a crowd

This is Me, this is D, this is some kind of poetry

Vocally this is globally, locally hitting potency

Notice me irrevocably, openly with diplomacy

A diary of madness in my mind like it’s Jodeci

Hopelessly and emotionally, consuming like a grocery

But I just keep a dose of me close to me

It’s supposed to be hard

So it don’t matter if I’m broken or I’m scarred

I’mma still stand tall and thank God from my heart

It makes no difference if I’m fearless or I’m scared

It is only by his love I am... here
