lyrics

if you really want to hurt someone
pen = sword
giving in to rage the demon’s won
pain = yours
“oh but i really want to hurt this one”
mantra : pen=sword
I rock a mic for the good of my son
pen = sword

the pen is mightier than the sword
vibe under pressure

stop think it over
retain that composure
seen?
that’s how it goes
everyone knows you’re opposed
still they’re dope from exposure
see me lyrically bulldoze ya

you fucking wonder why I smirk?
getting into this hype work
come and test a man on a mic
make your night worse
have you reaching for the night nurse
with the rhyme to make your eye burst
restricting mc’s
like collar tie cuffs and a white shirt
ain’t nothing smarter than a tight verse with the right verse
sodomise you with a stare
take the mic first
prepare this guys’s hearse
ain’t no such fucking thing as a nice Merc
you twerking berk
I’m certain your hurting its curtains
the tip of the iceberg
come test an mc when I’m mad
you hungry?
serving you with the biggest dish you ever had
from a single dad
what the fuck do you stand for?
who you trying to be glam for?
you think you’re a man for trolling up on a social moping?
jealous of another man’s tour?
what?
no secret handshakes i don’t pull no strings
its pure graft
100% up in your flesh from the first venomous bar to the last
put an mc up on his arse
rocking a mic onstage when disrespected
rest of the time i’m known as the guy that’ll take my love and I try to spread it
meant it if i said it.
no right to question this intent
i ain’t the one the scene caught lying
whispering my shit was bent
you the fuck d’you even think you are?
you cunt
prove yourself
what you ever sacrificed or tried to do for public health?
calling Tarquin the fuck out
now answer if you dare
ill have you reaching up to tie them freaking laces
son beware my sites on lock
cue ball in the sock
when i was already the daddy
like surfers up on a rock
you’re going to be fucking dead if you ever come at me.

heavy drama
sins of the lack of the father
seeds sewn time ago
mad palaver
sons buried by parents
i’m a fucking parent
who else to blame but the parents?
teachers
preachers
coke burning bleachers
leeches
chow down on a young soul like peaches
and i mean this
you need this to see this
please read my thesis
don’t resist peace
taking the piss like a penis
they stop acting the clown when we come around
it’s like the sound’s in town to nice it up and calm it down
or host roads and boast loads
now your ghost knows
mothers screaming in your blood
over nothing but postcodes
what the fuck’s up with this shit
ain’t a game that’s my kid
serious
yours too
think of everything you did
coming to nothing
at the push of a button
flicking a knife open
life over
now your son is nothing
hand your gun in
better stop
think it over
retain that composure
that’s how it goes
yeah everyone knows you’re opposed
still they’re dope from exposure
see me lyrically bulldozeya
