Bad Manners (Ill Manors Freestyle) Lyrics

Yeah, bad manners

Listen. Lately I've had the strangest dreams
Plus I got money on my mind before I sleep
So you can blame the cheese

Gangsta rap, I've never claimed to be (na-ah)
Wake up and brush my teeth
And that's about the only time I aim and squeeze

You heard Ill Manners now you're listening to Bad Manners
Back on attack, the kid with the British bandanas
Going up the ladders on a board full of black-adders
Put on me a beat I'm going black...cameras (cool)
New David of rap..Cameron (swah)
But the only thing I'm Downing is cans
In a party by myself its going down in the cans
It's time to Level Up
I never doubted the fans
And just like Ben I've got Plan's
Raised in a Ill Manor
But we all have a choice
Even if the motherf*cks got their back to us
Sing louder, we all have The Voice (you go, you go, no Jessie you go)

All the kids hate politics
But do you vote?

Nobody stopping one of us from running
On or off track.. U. Bolt
(Plan B Ill Manors Chorus)

(swah, swah)
Yeah, the kid's back up in the play ground
Tell a bully to pick a place, I bring the plague round
Wanna be stopping from chopping this paper
Your barking up the wrong tree, stay down
I never rose from a bed of roses
I'm from the roads so if you ain't rollin'
You're getting laid down
On the come up I was never on the covers
Face it - I've got the whole city covered - Capetown

I'm going in with a catalog I'm knee deep
Tell 'em it ain't over till they send it
The other day I appeared on "Free Speech"
Thought it was another late show until it trended
(Wow) #YesSway, splendid
Retweet, mentions
Date of Delieverance is TBC
But its definitely coming this year..pending

Everyone telling me I got a killer flow
I kinda know but better keep the braggin' to a minimal
An animal, 'cos when I hear the beat it's kinda criminal
For me to let it breath, I pick the mic up and I kill 'em off
Chilling in the spotlight, telling people 'em to get 'em up
Rappers are getting jealous, telling promoters to get him off
They said I've got a second pair of lungs
All my competition are getting air but I just can't get enough
Still lyrical even after I sped it up
And anybody getting in my path
Is getting written off
I do it like the video
It's all getting lighten up
If we ain't putting Britain on the map then we're kicking off..
I need water

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
