Turn Me Up (Remix) Lyrics

[Verse 1: Rakey]
Yeah, come come now
Still sitting rapping and the sun just come out
Somehow the sundial just come round
So what now?
My dreams flicker while my eyes still open
Eyelid closes, and the dream actually imposes
But my eyes are still open, the shits broken
I was sitting in a chair, now my lifes shift focus
In front of me six golden beings tell me earth's hopeless
Asked 'em how they know, told me they the old'uns
Rubbed my eyes cos I think I'm still on that old buzz
But I ain't on shit, zero, no drugs

I bring a fist to a knife fight, cause they told me no violence
So when I murder you, shit you know what is
Not Mr. Absolutely, I'm Rakey I'm incredible at this
So adjust your bass your treble and then


[Hook] x2
Yo, turn me up some
Yo, turn me up some
Yo, turn me up some
Turn me up some, turn me up some

[Verse 2: Rakey]
I rap like a veteran when I'm only seventeen
Tell me that I'm bad I don't care, won't accept defeat
It's better to live on your knees then die on your feet
So I'll kneel right here, and you can take the seat
So seemly I'm knee deep, while your only feet deep
I Never rest, get no sleep, I don't count no sheep
Only thing we all got in common is we die
Maybe then I can finally rest my eyes

And I despise, all of you
And if you don't like me then I love you too
No I'm not religous and I don't believe in god
But If I believed in one, then I know I'd be his son

I'm new to the game so for that I'm still in school
So how can you expect me to be so lyrical
If you wanna fight me then you gotta big queue
Cos there's a infinite number of people I allude

[Hook] x2
Yo, turn me up some
Yo, turn me up some
Yo, turn me up some
Turn me up some, turn me up some

[Verse 3: Rakey]
Come come now
Told you turn me up, that's enough now
Government are chickens, done us foul
Might as well come to our door, and bust some rounds
You Imagine if they did?
Probably still get away with fuckin over little kids

Claim they helping us, giving us a little bit
Raising taxes, man that doesn't help shit
They raised everything, they raised the cost of living
Didn't raise it then they took it like our ceilings

It's okay if you've got a constant income
But what about when you can't put food in your tum

The worst thing is were not the worst
Some people might as well be sleeping in a hearst
Cos everyday they wake, could be their last

While David Cameron takes another sip out his glass
Kids in the slums, get shot by others guns
Did it for what? Whats the reason?

My family's not the worst, but we're struggling
We got electric and heating, others huddling

Government making everyone cry like an onion
Government making everyone cry and they covering
It up,
now another couple killed
Having more kids, more blood for them to spill
If your girl gain weight, a few days late
Plate crave, probably gonna add to the birth rate
It's a damn shame, but embrace it
The world's fucked up but its changing

The world at its best was a neccesery evil
But that was a long time ago, primeval

Now this track may seem out of place
But I don't care cos I'm gonna be one of the greats

When you ever heard a track like this on a first tape
You won't find a video to much info for the frame rate
But if the smartest man in the world, knows he don't know shit
Then what the fuck do I know, ya bish
