racism, hate-crime, police and state brutality will never be tolerated.
the shadowbanning of this track's video + censorship of our online promo, despite our clear condemnation of unlawful violence + attempts to use it to raise funds for #StopHateUK in 2020, has only strengthened our resolve to make art that reflects the times. this is not fun or easy art to make. word is born. pls support with a share: youtu.be/K4s3cySb6PM

LYRICS:
Lately been crazy
You crossed the line
you better believe
these racists need pasting
they lie and deceive
don't wait see
it's bait see
just take a knee while i grieve
dont' mace me won't phase me
because right now,
no-one can breathe
The DEF DEFINITION
My DEFINITION
Is By DEFINITION
The High DEFINITION
Get ready for my diction
Carpetface From the age that's golden
Representing the school that's olden
damn straight's how I told em
party people wake up
get the fuck out the doldrums
Hip Hop's what I sold them.
in the palm's where I hold them.
Coming straight from the place where the knocks are hard
dealing in toxic bars
hotter than dogs in cars
warming up trust your boy burnt a bunch of stars,
unbuttoned bras, fake spars,
A&Rs, Mardi Gras.
If you're out for number one then your ways are weak
We needs to come together
These days are peak
I used to hate my teacher
faking "obey the freak"
We got professors checking if its ok to speak
At the Symposium
doesydoed your mum
Politician
See you hooking up your cosy chum
Dissing the kids with figures missing from the bigger decisions.
the innocents are in prison.
The DEFinition is GIVING
so listen
We get down tonight don't clown around tonight
duty bound to find the truth in the story
Ain't no way to cheat death or beat death
just be def and keep your rhyme fat like a fucking Tory
So if you want to get down with me the c a r p to the e t will make you see
With precision the vision seen from my position
i beg you listen to the def definition
check check check 1 2 1 2 check
what was done to you and your dumb crew
grew while you done knew
ooh what its come to
screwed by the ones who
fund your fun while they bum rush and run you
i you don’t understand what i mean
i guess its too late for debating on original sin
just put your feet up relax man,
they’re already in
and the main part of your story’s just about to begin
meanwhile dreams of breaching the scene
reaching their queen
these leaches bleed green
now i’m keen to proceed
i bring love from the city with the 5 magic beans
Hip Hop
still slinging that dope to dope fiends
The DEF DEFINITION
My DEFINITION
Is By DEFINITION
The High DEFINITION
Get ready for my diction
Lately been crazy
You crossed the line
you better believe
these racists need pasting
they lie and deceive
don't wait see
it's bait see
just take a knee while i grieve
dont' mace me won't phase me
because right now,
no-one can breathe
