Yo yo let me talk

Hear the freedom in my speeches, off these teachings

Reach off the power like leeches

Overtime hours aim reaching for champagne showers

Cower under the roof, we lie awake under the truth

It's power no spoof, while we lie awake in silence

Hear my drive from the brake screeches, no violence

Don't lie around and wait for timeless features

Don't mistake the fakes for greats, it's never too late to sand these beaches

Stand out from niches, get on TV with Lorraine I ain't talking about quiches

Because our potential is waiting

Because our potential is waiting

Because i ain't no stereotype so don't put me in a box

I'm thinking outside it, my pad's got no locks

And i ain't got no tattoo's, there's no ink on this skin

Just the ink on my paper, but my words are growing thin

It's absurd like my sin, and it's lost like my patience

I feel i'm on the right track, but the train's left the station

A lost generation, trials and tribulations

If this is all there is where can we find motivation

So i look to commuters, packed in London trains

Follow like sheep to stay 9 to 5 at computers

Coz there's so much competition, and life is an audition

Yet fuck thinking i need your permission to be a musician

To envision a tradition of no suits and no boots

They strangle like straight jackets, don't try to dispute

But we keep going around, forced into play like a throw-in

All ups and down but still a constant plateauing, in a daily routine

No excitement of not knowing in the queue for caffeine

Yo yo let me talk

Because our potential is waiting

Because our potential is waiting

Because our potential is waiting

Everything we dream is possible to create, this fate, and

Daymares at daytime, nightmares come alive

But you still see my vision when i close my eyes

Do you even realise the disguise you've kept hidden in the skies

While bed ridden, drawn to the light like flies

Discovering states when it gets late, no taxes or hates

Ride on the inflatables, are we plain fools with platefuls

Or desperate take it alls

Just swim with your pools of idea

We don't just educate from schools, we just don't use our tools at all here

Yo yo let me talk

Yo yo let me talk

Yo yo let me talk

Yo yo let me talk
