Always wanted a Preemo BEat
Fantasise bout spitting bars up in D N D
so here I am the architect of my reality
He can sue me later if really that mad at me
and this a departure, from what I think is part of
the problems that we deal with, working in this art form
this is where is I start from, this is where my hearts from
this the foundation on which I must march on
this my declaration
I'd like to thank you for patience
for all the years I been wasting
craving validation
toss it to the sanitation
the cause of so much frustration
now i'm really with it
thinking of all the way to kill it
expaning past the limits
bro you can spin
you can twist you can flip it
just make sure that's different
and did you hear the latest peer pressure nah that old news
don't feel pressure be fresher in your own shoes
don't feel lesser than executives and moguls
ain't no competitor for stresses that you go through
this the print edition
digital got something missing
too much click bait and hissing
too many with fake intentions
tryna generate a mention
and Musk bought twitter, some say for the free speech
what's the bets that Tesla suddenly gets some increased reach
misinformation running wild up in these streets
headlines only most don't really need deets
and that's the offical
update on the issue
most don't move past initial
you gotta keep it simple
if you wanting them to get you
extra extra's additional

Straihht out cesspit of rap
Where fake artists getting plaque
Id like to show you round the capital
The atmosphere is magical
A spot many wanna travel to
The architecture is a please got the baddest views
The monarchy going strong, got the maddest jewels
But past the tourist
You feel a sadness flourish
The deepest darkest moments happen in the parks we stroll in
Teens are stabbing teens
county lines exploding
Victims steady choking
While the care system broken
Talking kids talking adults talking elderly
Take a walk to chelsea see where the wealthy be
Empty housds oligarch chinese owners
Pushing house prices up you wont find em lower
We had the windrush scandal oh they didnt tell you
40 years paying tax still their visa fell through
Deported them sent em back to the Caribbean
They built brixton a place now yo they hardly be in
Whole communities displaced
Prices brutally inflate
Working class gotta go
That is usually the case
And london you wont see any different
Gentrification run from brixton to sydenham
True legends got SE in their post code
Ask any londoner and bro most know
Theres not any part of London that wont go
Cause the flavour in the areas is loco
Enough of that back to london as a whole though
Past the surface and the instagram photos
We got the spurs we got the gooners
Most the workerd are commuters
We got chelsea we got Fulham
Crystal palace Dulwich hamlets
We got rappets we got jazzers
Social justice we got fascists
We got new styles
We got classics
What we dont have
Is the average
House prices start at half a milly
600 for a 2 bed things is silly
Im in my 30s so i dont know what the kids is doing
If i was them though id prolly consider moving
6 pounds a pint as a working student
No wonder gen z minds in a state of ruin
Dope rappers aint none of us left
London sleeps, and sleep is the cousin of death
Beyond the walls of intelligence life is defined
I spit a rhyme for the L D N state of mind
I had a dream i moved from london
The air was clean, roads were clear
Travelling 5 miles took less than a year
But then i realised, its not a happy story
london voted labour, the rest of the country tory
Andi love it here
Even though the situation difficult
Camt overlook the corruption in the institutes
World class hospitals, free at the point of use
Any interest ever you can probably find and join some groups
It can get impolite for no good reason
Dont take it personal its just the way of being
Took me a while and sometimes its still got me beefing
Some of these brothers out here really need a beating
Let me pause
not focus on the flaws
The city deserves applause
For the way it opens doors
For anyone
Anything
Any race
Any skin
Good at what you do?
Then come to london come be king
We got every single scene imaginable
Take something super niche to fashionable
We got the thames if you wanna go splash in a pool
Hahahahahhahaha
One of the greatest in the world
Man its got to be
And if not its at least in the top three
Im not even from here, plus i hate the weather
But its different mix of people that make it better
You got the capalitists you got the che guevara
Coexisting in the way that they stay together
Its unheard in the rest of the planet
The way mix all together different secions have managed
To cross pollinate man it's just special its magic
A hybrid of styles makes the most exceptional talent
In London

My son Amobi only 10 weeks on sunday
Im thinking all the questions hes gonna ask someday
How much to tell him? A big amount?
Some things i cant tell him, he can only figure out
Like whys he here? Whats his purpose
Contemplating that really got me feeling nervous.
stick to spraying facts when im coming with verses
And if its white or black then im gonna be assertive
But if it's gray, what should i say
Is a young mind capable to choose the right the way?
Theres a thin line between giving guidance
Imparting bias see as a scientist
Bro im tryna find this
AND WHAT about religion
Id like him to believe but only if its come from his decision
If he learns about the hindus and the muslims and the christians
Whats the likelihood picks one and follows the traditions
I dont really know know i dont know really know woah woah
Everyday he grow gotta teach me more
Woah woah
Should i teach i him fast? Should i teach him slow woah woah woah
Which method lasts? Which method goes?
At this point, its deep still
I got a million more questions than he will
Like how to explain all the details
Like how making money doesnt always need skill
My pops use to say, he dont respect money
Cause even dunces get rich i thought that was funny
Cant wait to pass that knowledge on to my sonny
How do i make sure its only good he gets. From me?
How have other parents done this with no training
Some 15 years younger with no payment
Still they raising people thats so amazing
I so many questions that need explaining
I got a million more bro...
Is it time to hang up the mic and be a doctor
Full time start getting that money in proper
If i did id definitely feel like an imposter
Youd make a lot but think about it really it cost ya
Youd make a lot but think about it really it cost ya
Youd make a lot but think about it really it cost ya
Sometimes its obvious the path when the answers offered
Sometimes its cryptic and its hiden more like its a crossword
5 down 3 across at the intersection
Hows your biggest weakness also your biggest blessing
Hows life a long sequence of constant lessons
I guess thats why its never ending with the questions.
A million
And one
I keep asking
Its never done
Some of the answers
Got me stunned
If you aint asking
Then you dumb blaow
