Dizzee Rascal Album

This journey starts 6 years ago
in run-down housin estate in Bow
east london south-east uk was a young man lets call this young man ray
frustated wiv bein around the way
would say "i'm bored" until one day
gathered up sum change and in exchange got turntables off tony
not only, were they whack, they were wooden, but he took 'em
cos it was a bargain and it was a good'en
and he said to himself who wouldn't?
why not, then he took a little trot to dj targets squat
stood outside o'the door and knocked
asked what jungle records you got?
must be sumthin u wanna get shot, of, blot
dint buy beats he ready to quit gave 'im the whole lot
then ray had little click, they were hot, young gun soldiers but it all flopped,
still it didnt make ray wanna give up the fight
ray jus picked up the mic, would write, lyrics while excluded
no gifts and glamour included
like crime for money, dough, crime pays didnt ya know?
even though ray come across slow
broke shit down, brung another new flow
made beats in the back room
teacher gave him a little spare time
then they got a little bit o'radio airtime
1am til 3 be in school by 9
this was clearly a positive sign
learnin bout beats breaks and bars
didnt chat about champagne and cars
more concerned wiv you know, the grime
made it a touch difficult to shine
among these so-called underground stars
some resented him thus presentin him with pure dumbness like retards
it dint matter ray would say, ok, i'm gonna be a real star one day
went through dramas along the way
but he stood firm pressed on wiv the wordplay
went through dramas along the way
but he stoof firm pressed on wiv the wordplay
went through dramas along the way
lets take a look at ray today....

Raskit, boy in the corner I still roll deep Youngstar gimmee the beat and let me prove

I ain't on a high ting (Nah!!)
Jus out here tryin' to do da right thing
And even though you know I don't mind fightin'
all i want is cash,money like lightning

You know I.... Gota get that dough!
I ain't rampin'
Gotta get that dough!
Damm right
Gota get that dough!
I ain't rampin'
Gota get that dough!
Straight up! (uha)

taste, charisma stylee we got plenty
Cruisin' in the Punto on the way to Bentley
Evidently far from gently eatin' up da road
We act immaturely in a hurry to be old
Infact we'll leave you poorly catch a beatin' like a cold
Go ahead profile and flex like you're big, bad and bold
Go ahead go round your next to get hit, had and showed
Stay out the paper chase
Floppy fella's fold
Neglect da rules, expect da codes, follow the guide lines
Life's been ugly so far but these are fine times
I write below the belt above average fine rhymes
I always tried to be a star my city saw the signs
I try not to be stupid with my fame
But constantly I sense fassies bein' clever wiv my name
Indirectly call my name like they're callin' my bluff
So sadly I often sense the need to get rough.

I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, I'm all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, It's all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, I'm all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, so move over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!

Fulla strife, that's life
Deal wiv how bad it is
Reminisce, reflect, revise on how bad it coulda been
Abuse time and find out how mad it is
Time waits for nobody handle your biz
Extortionists would love to man-handle this
I'm ignorant, refuse to understand what extortion is
Jack me and get what? Jack me and get where?
Get zilch times zero, times nofin' plus air!
Yea I'm way beyond care
Hate me or love me try not to stare
Your thoughts and your opinions try not to share
I show interest on an occasion that is rare
Plus I ain't in the hype, I'm above it and I cause it
Can't put a stop to da track but I can pause it
So play your role
Act tuff put on your show
I'll let da ratchet be your audience
Bullets will applaud it!!!

I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, I'm all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, It's all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, I'm all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, so move over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!

My name is Dizzee Dizz
I handle my biz
My spreaders talkin' gangsta don't know what a gangsta is
(Tut) They ain't ready yet, I don't claim a set
But if you test I'll leave you wiv something you will regret
I'm five ten slim, chocolate skin
I'll punch you in your nostrils, I'll punch you in your chin
But I ain't mad I'm a lovely lad
I'll give you the loveliest beatin' that you've ever had
Rude boy, home boy better chill
You know I don't watch no face cause I'm real
I don't care if your sick I don't care if your I'll
My foot will add a nice frill to your ice-grill!
Son dun-duddy I don't find shit funny
If you ever try and go against the flow of my money
Word is bun, what's really good I'm really hood
Take this song as a caution you really should

I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, I'm all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, It's all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, I'm all over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!
I'm here, there, I'm everywhere
I can't be seen, so move over
Ya nah wat I mean!?!

Young Hustlers, [Stand Up] We graft all da time.
Non Stop. UK War.
You nowatam say, you nowatam saayin'?

Yo as I hustle in the city, for a paper stack.
Lord knows I got da devil on ma back.
It's a cold world, I gotta stay on track.
Dog-eat-dog, others gain, if you like.
In the LDN, where I learnt to attract.
Clientel, I can show u where its at.
First fings first, get a plot n a flat.
Next up get a black hoody n a hat.
Livin in the big bruva cameras, u.
Keep an eye out for da boys in blue.
Straight 5 years, gettin caught, dats u.
Sittin in a cell, still wonderin, hu?
Gotta keep quiet, nightly on a diet.
Mash potatoes, collyflowa, n stew.
Pissed off wiv not alot to do.
And a word on da street dont neva seem new.
And none of it dont neva seem true.
Endless hype, hu do u believe?
Will it relieve the lonliness?
and might remain decieved.
If your convinced it might.
You know full well when the streets alight.
Few more birds, couple more ranges.
Uva dan dat not alot else changes.

Sky looks grey in London city, we stay graftin' cuz we're gritty.
[hustle] Hustle constantly, [hustle] Hustle constantly.
Sky looks grey in London city, we stay graftin' cuz we're gritty.
[hustle] Hustle constantly, [hustle] Hustle constantly.

I used to roll money up against the wall, neva did wanna play hopscotch.
Now I'm pinacle, parkin' life, n coz I'm dark in a white man's cotch.
I've bin doin this since tamigotch, arjy, hydro, any boy in my face.
Invadin my space, on klingon star, bring it on star or WATCH.
By the ends of the hours of the clock, I'll end your days.
You'll fink I'm crazed, when I give you da midnight rock.
End of sentence .. full stop.
Now what you gonna say about dat? I'll put all you plans in a knot.
Make you put, all your mans on da spot, I'm totally everfin dat your not.
I'm totally mad, you've lost da plot, to even consider gettin me got.
Carried of to the hospital, jus been shot, on the table.
Ready to operate, neva mate. I dictate, n deligate.
Cruise heavyweight, I'm king of da ring.
Make moves in any state, LDN we do our fing...

Sky looks grey in London city, we stay graftin' cuz we're gritty.
[hustle] Hustle constantly, [hustle] Hustle constantly.
Sky looks grey in London city, we stay graftin' cuz we're gritty.
[hustle] Hustle constantly, [hustle] Hustle constantly.

you're a fassy there's no doubt
i bet my sword will make you shout
i'm intense you best see sense i'll have you hangin from a fence
then i'll laugh at your expense and maybe chuck you 50 pence
snitch you make me switch you sound and look just like a bitch
whether you're poor or whether you're rich i'll leave you lyin in the ditch
cause i'm from ragged raggo rags you wear raggo rags like me
i'm ahead boy i ain't in tune rappin raggo rapidly
we easily be the worst bust academics first
batty crew m.c's get academicly reversed
i'm academicly perverse
academicly perverted
batty crew mc's get academicly diverted
some return
we clearly get burnt get hurt, un-til they realise they should academicly of flirted

you don't want the beef you don't want the grime
you ain't got the guts i aint got the time
but you can come to the man and get jakked
come to the man n get pill
come to the man n get shot
come to the man n get killed
we call it armsouse, armsouse go n get your crew
if you can't back that armsouse who the fuck are you
we call it armsouse, armsouse go n get your firm
if they don't wanna listen then we better make em learn

raised in the gutter i was told i should fight
i create and cause confusion from the left to the right
i'm sweet as a nut, i'm doin alright, cosy n comfortable
still i try n avoid the sargeant, p.c and the constable
raised in the gutter i was told i should bop
i create and cause confusion from the bottom to the top
i doin o.k, i will honestly say this year i'm flyin through
i could easily find myself in jail but i aint tryin to
i keep it clear in front, relax wid the pressure,
i'm dirty, and i'm stank but aint nobody fresher
my haters make enquiries, make it obvious they care
when it comes to my location they would love to be aware
but i could be in the manor, could be overseas, could well be definiteley making peace
could be live at wembley warmin up for jay-z
still i'm definitey certain that you can't see me

you don't want the beef you don't want the grime
you ain't got the guts i aint got the time
but you can come to the man and get jakked
come to the man n get pill
come to the man n get shot
come to the man n get killed
we call it armsouse, armsouse go n get your crew
if you can't back that armsouse who the fuck are you
we call it armsouse, armsouse go n get your firm
if they don't wanna listen then you better make em learn

Yo! Look!

Dillan’s on a hype now
I see you doin’ quite alright
I see your video da other night
How did he get a record deal
Chattin’ like he’s super-real
I see you in Roman Road market
On Saturday there you go
Better Dillan days standin’ in da park
What’s da word on da street
Did he really slap her?!?
Is true Wiley skipped da country left him?!?
Did he punch Mega in da face for tryin’ to test him?!?
I know he won a mercury award and brought it back to da estate
I know some broad’s in da manner hate and frequently debate
Da way he makes moves
How’s he steppin’ is he reppin’
Cause dey know he goes to Hackney
And dey wonder what he’s getting’
Plus I know he had dat Wall St. gat
Da other day I see him leavin’ Natalie’s flat
He used to work dat south girl
Da mouthy one
What’s his name’s cousin
Still I know a couple girls are on it
I could name a dozen
But he aint no player
He be getting’ all da gash
Cause now dey know he’s got a little
Cash and a stash
Dat will keep him looking’ pretty for da future in a flash
But little do dey know he’s only looking’ for da lash
Cause Dillan’s on a hype now!
Got his face on his tee-shirt name on his trainers da edieah!!!
He got a new era cap wit his logo
My bredrin’s saw him tryin’ on tracksuits in soho
I’m buyin’ jackets from Benenni in LA
I heard he went to broadway
Limo drive him through Queens
Is he livin’ out his dream is he ballin’ be truthful
Cause he aint sittin’ on da wall like he used to
He was on a far tip at one point
He used to peel on Volvo to take da flows to Bethal Green
Next thing I hear him on da pirate radio scene
He used to do deja writ an evil flavour
Bought records off target and mix an a-Dub
Then worked his way to A list
It’s funny cause da older’s used to dismiss
Dey never for a second anticipated this
Not guts no glory
Dillan took a risk took da piss now
Fella’s wanna act nigga
If I reminisce on days when Dillan weren’t all so crystal
Dey know Dillan put da game on a twist and
Dillan’s on a hype now!!!
Worldwide interviews and business trips
Invitations to premiers and new flicks
And all da chicks got his name on their lips
But couple gunman kinda got him on da brain
And also da couples wanna put him on frame
Dey’re constantly watchin’ so he better maintain
But he’s getting’ major money so he can’t complain!

Lets talk about over excited boys on the road,
who break all street on every area code,
couldnt get a real name for themselfs living of reflected glory, living off face,
said he knows slimzee ,maxwell, gods gift, said he knows plake, said he knows ace.
Claims he's tight wiv mega man, cool with romeo cousin of kaish,
said he knows neeko breder hype said he had lunch at lethals place,
backstage with the N.A.S.T.Y crew where i asked him to get out of my FACE,
as he looks for the face, i look for a way to move him clearly outa my face,
and i leave him there, hopes for the face receiving air,
then i get a live late night phone call
pissed cuz its gone past buisness hours on the clock this,
number dont look local this is why i dont answer the phone,
20 missed calls is total plus 8 voicemails bout 14 messages
people cant take hints and messages, and the message is leave me alone.
people got a problem, act like i used to make dub-plates for them,
so they could look good and tell tales, its all jiggy and we look like pals,
and i can be the next big star in your phone book,
u look like a real top boi when the gurls look big bold capitals front page

you people respect me, if it kills you x4

you people respect me, if it kills you x4

do it how they didn't wanna do it now they wanna try and do it but I'm tellin them no
im in a predicament with imitators wanna take my style and have a bit of my flow
all this copy cattin on my lyrics that there chattin betta stop before the gunshot's blow
do you really want it coz i really wanna give it if you do just let me know
and i show arrogance and elegance
but no tolerance for nonsense
i bring violence im a nuisance
killer M-C leave no evidence
ive got brains and intelligence
but no conscience no innocence
we roll in the darkened silence
represent us in any residence
and i swing for your chin with no hesitense
imma captain ya betta bring your regiments
and your a failure dont have no relevence
imma champion, winner and a victor prick ya
so not ready so til ya see ya soul
headed for the golden gates
no really you monkeys are playin with apes
not guerilla warfare it's the coppers i carry this stick for
plus ive had enough of these
lil cheap comments from fake M-C's
bad minders and skat ladies
talkin about how it used to be
well it's a brand new day
so leave me be
i dont need you so dont need me
your opinion don't interest me
dont like me thats fine by me
coz from holly street ta hollywood its all good
from new york ta york hall its all cool
your a fool if ya think i'm gonna cease
now honestly could there really be peace
it dont seem that way to tough
stop with the games i play to rough
must be smokin to much puff
divert or be deceased
u.k rapper stabbed in napa
cause of gossip cause of chatter
he's still breathin he's still a dapper
retaliate with gun clapper
truthfully i can't see very well
dont flatter your self your any girl
them boy's shoulda sent me ta hell
now prepare for the beast

you people gonna respect me
better make you respect me x4

you people are gonna respect me if it kills you x2
(alright verse two I swear)

ey yo endless speculation im facin
constant controversial relations
to gun crime at garage events
with so many claims and no evidence
suggesting im the reason
for the UK gun clap season
im legal may i stress
to the fool for the sake of
strident intelligence
go ahead check my files all day
bit of criminal damage and T-D-A
might be a little bit of violent disorder
but i aint never been locked away
got some mates that have been convicted
yer so what it's the hand life dealt them

government shoulda tried ta help them
been a law breaker aint tryna hide it
as for the sentence aint tryna ride it
stop that so i could do this
im legit ya may as well kiss my
A-S-S P-L-E-A-S-E im L-E-G-I-T

so fuck you
unapoligetic
cant be, never have been, wont be a prick
yer thats it

we grew up in the ghetto where summertimes short
straight action, you dont stop for a fool
most use crime as a way to pay the bills
the un-lucky ones end up gettin caught
we grew up in the ghetto where the growing gets rough
moneys been around but its never been enough
most aint givin no choice but to hussle
some break down when the going gets tough
deep in the manners all kinds of different people
mines over east still struggle to be equal
so many characters, 4 main types
the good, the bad, the ugly, and the evil
deep in the manner where the povertys visable
theres not alot sweet so most look misarable
most cave in to the devil, took the wrong puff
son kick the face but still pray for a miracle
soccastars emerge from the curb
up n coming mcs struggle to be heard
boy.... the next jailbird ??
*censored*s talk murder and they live by there word
shotters keep the money going round
kids goin stray most never get found
iv noticed there a ghetto in every town
the skies are empty because the stars are on the ground

(chorus)
sumtimes im lost look up at the sky
sumtimes i feel 2 cry but sumhow i still get by
sumtimes im lost askin ma self y
sumtimes i feel 2 cry but sumhow i still get by

we grew up in the ghetto saw real life pain
real life struggle with real life strain
real life kiddies with real life guns
and real life mothers lose real life sons
gang wars are ruftin on the darf flur on the seeser ??
beef after beef just to be the top geezer
big arms gas, the stratford recs
ghetto high murders gotta maintain reps
whats it all about i ask myself before i swing
more time im beefin over any little thing
beefin any area,region or vincity
my ghetto frame of mind makes me prone to hostility
to my bredrons locked up, to my young baby mothers
each and every creed and colour, ghetto sisters and brothers
if you know your from the slums keep reppin no doubt
stay ghetto if you must just remember to get out

(chorus)
sumtimes im lost look up at the sky
sumtimes i feel 2 cry but sumhow i still get by
sumtimes im lost askin ma self y
sumtimes i feel 2 cry but sumhow i still get by
sumtimes i feel 2 cry look up at the sky get by

chorus:
Knock knock who's there?
Dizzee
Dizzee who?
Ras, Anarchic-arse, killer mc force
knock knock who's there?
Bad
Bad who?
Boy, i'm here to annoy, take away your joy
Knock knock who's there?
jak
jak who?
you
you're not wiv your crew, what you gonna do?
Knock knock who's there?
Big
Big who?
Gun, point me to the sun, watch your fassy run

Yo, i'm dizzee ras nightmare from the big e a s t
i'm exactly what your parents don't wanna see on your tv
i'm nasty precisely intimidate anyone that i choose
refuse to lose express unlimited controversial views
your average boy or girl on the street might be familiar with my beat
and/or familiar with my sound i'm formerly from the underground
and its clear, for a year
i've been turnin up the heat made you get up an outta your seat
shake your fists and shuffle your feet

lets make another thing clear
they didnt burn me up enough i'm still here
so what was the purpose of your little charade?
your little charade was whack
just about hurt me you shoulda marked me up on a rampage now i'm back
5 stab wounds couple scratchin bruisin and some (chains?)
4 half-hearted fassies 4 borers no brains
did it, two weeks before my album helped me sell double
but lets not dwell on that its the least of your trouble

(chorus)

Hey y'all considerin, the part i play, the position i'm in
you wouldn't be expectin me to say
i prefer the day to nights when i gotta turn up and play-up
rip-off dusty sweaty cluttered raves
where the audience all screw-face and the promoters don't wanna pay
and half o'the boys in the crowd wanna blast me
and half o'the girls wanna show how little they care bout standin right there
at the front tryina look right past me
it gets depressin thinkin bout it even more
knowin that i'm gonna face the usual hassle at the door
because as well as lippy hacks i hate cocky bouncers
i ain't ere to rave i'm ere to get paid, look
you search me up rough like i'm any common crook
my name's on the flyer man forget the guest book
abusin your authority you look like a fool
you faulty standard underdog you know you're old skool
i ain't wearin a shirt and shoes so you don't think i look right
but its cush-ty mate i'm gettin paid more than you tonight

(chorus)

how am i gonna pull this off man with
out soundin dark?

this, this is too sensibly for me man

how you gonna hav a dream cum
true?

i use to dream bout crazy little fings
like fame in the days hangin outside
the off-license.

recless with no shame mainly up too

the girls walk by we wud try to catch
their eye
and if they aint a show face we wud

whole world against me

real big struggale gettin thru it all

imagine if i showed u 1 day i was leavin da hood,
wud u call me a sell out, wud u say its all good?
wud u folow if u cud?
or wud u jus tell me get da hell out?

and imagine if i showed u dat id found another way of gettin dough wiv out doin dirt,
lets blurt, wud u love me 4 givin u sum hope?
or ressent me coz ur pride got hurt?

imagine if we never grew up on a council estate,
an was country manor raised, wiv a spoon in our mouth,
wud we still b makin fuss about da east an da south?
wud we shiver at da robberys, murder an da crack?
an thank god dat we didn hav 2 live like dat,
jus an image on da tv as were comftarbly sat,
sippin wine room lit by da summer sunshine,
not a worry in da world as we cash will e chat?
oblivious 2 how we wud b livin on da flipside,
no experience, not a clue about a ruff ride,
no harrassment, no boy dem on our back side,
dat'd b amazin still!

but i no u wonder wud it make u any less real?
wats da current spot ur standin in, offerin,
if u had a better offer wud u go 4 da kill?
snap out of ur day dream, how do u feel?

does it all seem worthwhile 4 ya?
try an put it in perspective,
retrospective of ur profile an ur honour,
do u wana hang about or are u a goner?

come along fink fast, decision time,
uve been livin in da grime, don u wana climb?
da ladder of life, da wall of enlightenment,
or are u lookin 4 da hype an excitement,
coz deres so much drama in da LDN,
its kinda hard tryin 2 find legal money 2 spend,
generation, genocide look possible,
da rate at which we drew up 4 da sken,
an pretend, dat we dont no who da real enemy is,
who shud we hold responsible, instead we offend,
a couple square metres of pavement in da endz,
wat wud we acchieve my friends?

yeh oi, all i 'ere this week
he thinks he's rough, he's always got a screw face
he's stush, he thinks he's heavy, i've heard it all man
thats the same thing, thats the same shit
i can't believe it, i'm just bein me
i'm not doin this cos i got no money or cos i'm not famous
this is what i was, ya get me? (you know my face i been evrywhere i swear to you)


You can say i'm too rude you can say i think i'm heavy
you can say i think i'm all that i've heard it already
you can say i think i'm ruff
you can say you can't wait til the day you meet me face to face
and swear to set me straight
you can say i sounds whack you can say i'm overated
you can slag me off to every female i've ever dated
you can say i'm kinda ( ?)
you can say i'm just a prick
just say what you want and what you will but say it quick

chorus:
i'm flyin i ain't got time
you must be makin moves why you watchin mine
you got so much to say about my grind
you must be up there, i'll see you up there
cos i'm flyin i ain't got time
you must be makin moves why you watchin mine
you got so much to say about my grind
you must be up there, i'll see you up there,yeh?

you can say i'm arrogant you should probly say i'm vain
you can say my head swoll since i see a little fame
you can say i left the hood my success was a mistake
you can see i'm under pressure you can say i'm bound to break
you can never say i'm fake cos i always keep it real
you can say so what i can say so chill
you can say i'm too cheeky you can say i make you sick
just say what you want and what you will but say it quick

(chorus)

fellas actin bitchy lately quite unsurprisingly
there were nuff to cut my face but they just cock their eyes at me
like little ladies would you wish you could express yourself with violence
silence is your best option
best keep your feelins stealth
and der wonderin if i'm gonna last i'm sayin don't worry
i werent invited here i ain't leavin in a hurry
so any preconceptions that you've got of me forget 'em
please don't let 'em confuse you
i'm gully and rude and blatant
more time in a hurry impatient
don't make anymore enquiries fuck you is my only statement
the only i'm bout to give you
fuck you and whoever came wiv you
fuck them n anybody related
fuck a bike get me frustrated
cos i ain't the type to hype and rare
and i hope i scare and make you fear me
i'm pretty certain that your not near me
there's no need for that
i'll attack in time away from the . and . and grime serious grime
leave the microphone alone strappers get some verses with the nine

(chorus)

rascit, won't change for no one ever
i'm me i've been me
dapper, jakker, rapper
whatever
i don't play, i swear to you

deep-- roll deep through the depths of my mind...
deep-- roll deep through the depths of my mind...
deep-de-deep roll deep through the depths of my mind...

lord knows what i'll find when i re-re-rewind

deep-- roll deep through the depths of my mind...
deep-de-deep roll deep through the depths of my mind...
cuz i deep-- roll deep through the depths of my mind...

lord knows what i'll find when i reach

cuz i've got so much to say.. in so little time..
in such a short space i've got so much to do..
but if i can't find a way around i'll find a way across
and if i can't find a way across i'll bore straight through..
i find myself in a pickle.. this music ain't fickle..
surounded by big dawgs and i consider them likkle..
as they crash the particle.. the other giants..
i might apply some knowledge and wait for a ripple..
on my shoulder is a ripple
some love it.. some hate the idea of [no idea]
squeeze a dollar from a nickle..
