I'mDm not a rapper, I'm a singer with a flow
I've got a habit of spitting
quicker lyrics you know
You found me Bbripping the writtens
out of the pages they sit in
I never waCnt get bitten,
because plagiDbmarism is hidden
Which I would Dmsit on the rhythm ,
prisoner with a vision
Signs of a label, but didn't listen to any criticism
Thought you Bbknew but you didn't
So perk your ears up and listen
CStudio is a system
And you could say that I'mDbm driven
And now it's Dmon to the next saga,
we drink the best lager
I never tried to win you over
like your stepfather
BbI do my own thing now, and get respect after
CAnd I'm avoiding the cDbmane like it was Get Carter
DmFor four years I never had a place to stay
but it's safe to say that it kept me grounded like a paperweight
At Bb16 years old yeah I moved out of my home
I was CMacy Gray I tried to say Dbmgoodbye and
I choked
And went frDmom sleeping at the subway station, sleeping with a movie star and adding to the population
Not my imaginBbation, I don't want to relax
Would it hurt your reputatioCn,
if I put it on Dbmwax?
I take it back now
DmMmh Mmh Mmh Mmh
Come on and take it back nowBb
Come Con and take itDbm back for Dmus
DmDon't you fade into the back lBbove,
noCooooDbmhh
Verse 2:
Take it back with the Dmrhythm and blues
With my rap pack I'll be singing the news,
trying to act like Jack Black when I bring 'em to school
BbI'll make a beat with my feet just by hitting a loop,
Cbringing the lyrics to pDbmrove that I can fit in these shoes
DmAnd keeping the truth through the vocal booth,
stars burst out on the scene like an opal fruit,
they try to Bbtake aim like beckham when he goes to shoot,
but then Cagain that's what they're supposed to do,
Dbmand I'm supposed to be calm ,
I tattDmooed the lyrics onto my arm , whispering everything that happens is from now on,
I'll be Bbwilling to start again by the end of the song,
still they'reC claiming that I handled itDbm wrong,
but then I never had an eDmnemy, except the NME,
but I'll be selling twice as many copies as the magazines will ever be,
Bbwith only spectacles ahead of me and festival fees,
Chealthier than a DalDbmmatian on pedigree,
Dmsinging for the masses,
rubber dinghy rapids,
I keep this rapping a habit
and keep on passioning magic,
BbI'm battling with respect,
I don't know if I'll havCe it,
this songs from the hDbmeart,
cover the planet
I'll take it back now
DmMmh Mmh
Come on and take it back noBbw
Come Con and take itDbm back for uDms
DmDon't you fade into the back loBbve,
noCooooDbmhh
Verse 3:
Take it back now
DmI don't ever wanna be perfect,
Cause I'm a singer that you
never wanna see shirtless
I acBbcept the fact that someone's got to win worst-dressed,
Taking my fCirst steps into the sDbmcene,
giving me focus
DmPutting on a brave face, like Timothy Dalton
Considering a name change,
thinking it was hopeless
RhBbyming over recordings,
avoiding tradition
Cause everydCay some lyrics
and a meloDbmdy can be written
NowDm absence can make your heart break
But drinking absinthe can change your mind-state, vividly,
I need to let my liver be
BbAnd I say it again,
Living life on the edCge,
with a closed hanDbmd full of friends
Is good advice from a man
Dmwho took his life on the road with me
and I hope to see him blowing up globally
Cause that's how it's suppBbosed to be
screaming out vocally
It might seem Ctotally impossible
achDbmieving life's dreams
But,Dm but I just write schemes
I'm never having a stylist, giving me tight jeans
Madison Square GardeBbn is where I might be
But more likely,
You'll find Cme in the back
room of a Dbmdive bar with my mates
Having a Dmpint with McDaid
Discussing records we made
And every single second knowing
that we'll never betray
The way we were rBbaised
Remembering our background
Sat down
CThat's how we put it out;
it's Dbmtime to take it back now
DmMmh Mmh Mmh Mmh
Come on and take it back nowBb
Come Con and take itDbm back for uDms
DmDon't you fade into the back lBbove,
nooooCohh Dbm uuuuuuuhh
DmMmh Mmh Mmh Mmh
Come on and take it back nowBb
Come Con and take it Dbmback for usDm
DmDon't you fade into the back lovBbe,
nooCooohDbmh
Verse 4:
My dreams Dmkeep me awake at night
written in rhymes, and I, deliver the hype am I
just living the lie
with thBbis you must know that the number's just sold woah
CWill keep me going through the tDbmough times, dream with me
DmWe forget 90 percent of it when we wake
But the other 10 per cent it never fades
Dreaming dreams, Bbday to day goals,
Stay awake loads, try to make the cCut like the
paper or razor blDbmade, oh, never give up
DmAnd just remember just to hold out more
A couple years ago
I couldn't just control that thought
You'd find me bBbuskin' on the street
When it was cold outdoors
And now I'm swCeating on the stage
of a Dbmsold out tour
Writing Dmlove songs for the sake of it,
never to make a hit
You can't fake talent and work ethic just to make it quick
BbI'm not a rapper I'm a singer, I just take the piss and
CMost the other guys are kids that Dbmpose his little sister
has to baDmbysit, that's just a way it is
Dreams you own, just set your goals
and have the utmost faith in it
BbTread your own path, you'll never make it as a follower,
Cyou'll never know where you will go or Dbmwhere you'll be tomorrow
