This Is Livin’

Lyrics

VERSE ONE - ASHER Let me spit that old flow Spit it kinda slow Take it back to Nike hoodies no designer clothes Now everybody check your selves under microscopes Nobodies cooking porridge everybody's buying oats When did that become acceptable nobody gives a fuck at all When did Donald Trump become electable? We suffered all that shit, now its coming back around We say we're getting wavey, we just trying not to drown It's a struggle in this city getting priced out the bits Nobody gave a fuck before now Hackney is the shit Maybe we just didn't notice what was happening in front of us Out with the old, new creation of an underclass Running fast, can't run enough to escape Know this world will catch you if you make a single mistake This state we're living in ain't nothing nice to live in I'll catch you in the pub fam CHORUS - KOSHER, MANIK MC & C.REM Yeah this is livin' This is livin' Yeah this is livin' This is livin' X2 VERSE TWO - MANIK MC We're sucked in by chains, watches and copping them belts So we stopped searching for wisdom and knowledge of self We're lost in this hell, find us down the bottomless well You're either slaving for your pay or sat locked in a cell We're staying safely out their range when they're popping them shells Flinging shot after shot til they're on top of the world We're getting pushed to the limits til we've gone off the rails It's like God sent his vengeance but Sodom prevailed These doctor's don't help, they can't diagnose this Medicating daily to banish our emotions Going through the motions, brainwashed by adverts and slogans We're whispering them prayers when the storms are approaching Their fortress is tall, our horse is a trojan Feel the chakra rising when the force is awoken Trapped in the moment, the silence is choking When the fire starts to rise you're a fool to provoke it CHORUS - KOSHER, MANIK MC & C.REM Yeah this is livin' (Go and get a chrome, get a reach) This is livin' (Gun boys, pedal bikes, thieves) Yeah this is livin' (People hustle tryina make ps) This is livin' (But fuck that im'a do me) Yeah this is livin' This is livin' Yeah this is livin' This is livin' VERSE THREE - C.REM I can't sleep you know I think too much Feeling all this energy this negative stuff But i'm tryina take a lift so all this hash i chuff And it's way too much But all the stress is really clouding my mind I'm feeling like my past don't mean its left behind And i'm risking life and limb while i'm buzzing off the shine The games that we play yeah I gamble with the dice Way that its gone its like my heart turned cold I've got a young body but my mind feels old Got me living in this city where its all controlled They got your face on the camera, your name they know And I got a middle finger that I keep on show And I got ten of them you know I stay on toes Im not in the six but i'm with my woes It's all Root 73 but you knew that though CHORUS - KOSHER, MANIK MC & C.REM Yeah this is livin' (Go and get a chrome, get a reach) This is livin' (Gun boys, pedal bikes, thieves) Yeah this is livin' (People hustle tryina make ps) This is livin' (But fuck that im'a do me) Yeah this is livin' This is livin' Yeah this is livin' This is livin'
