Burning Bridges Lyrics

Ill Literature is the third release from the south-west based hip hop crew known as The Scribes. The album features The Scribes usual members but has also had a number of outside associates help out on certain tracks, this has brought in a range of different influences and styles resulting in what has to be one of the best albums this year.

The album features a total of 10 tracks, each of these tracks have been perfected; each with their individual style, range of influences and great variety of subject matter. Shaun Amos delivers heartfelt poetry on every track over some seriously dope beats mixed with some guitar licks and some scratching by Lacey. Normally we would highlight some of our favourite tracks off the album but it's near impossible to do, check out their tracks below accompanied with the lyrics!

Burning Bridges Lyrics

Year of Release: 2012

Intro

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages, at this time let me introduce to you,
weighing in this evening at a slim, trim, rough, buff, cut chiselled and jacked, combined weight of 420 pounds of pure
rap muscle, Loki Steele, Ill Literate, the tag team champions of the world, THE SCRIBES!

Verse 1

New wave technophobe/ Spit to a digital metronome/
Typical head nod/ Incredible flow scheme/
Blow with no need in general/
To get cosy with this ghost scene/
Ahead of all lesser fools/ Vegetables/
Lesson to the wise/
If I'm pissing off you guys it's a blessing in disguise/
Connected with the mic and I'm detecting that you like/
But I don't give a fuck like a lesbian for a wife/
The acceptable face detestable takes/
Uproot the underground's vegetable state/
Blessing all breaks/ With impeccable taste/
And next level timing/ Now I'm a spectacle/ Great/
Yet every time I rap a flow/ and every time we pack a show/
You head nod till your backs are broke/
Your sick well I'm the antidote/
This scene's a fucking cannibal I pack a catapult/
And slay Goliaths/ Fuck you liars/ End quote/

Hook

Break the bridge/
Another broken itch/
Step too short/
Instead you step on stones/

Verse 2

I am so focussed/ This rides got no time for your hide like ivory poachers/
Your ass is hopeless/ever since 'Another Episode' you've been sitting on the sofa/
billing with a roach, smoke swimming in the odour/
this is how you cope? deal with it when you're older/
breakthroughs start with stones and not boulders/
cold when you see your life fits in a folder/you can come with me/
I'll take you on a journey/ I step on coals and know they won't burn me/
'cus I know the secret/ to be a legend surely/
avoid mid life crisis and die early/ everybody's crazy/
isn't it amazing? Living with a vice until buried under paving/
whether it's women, drinking, television or raving/

Hook

Break the bridge/
Another broken itch/
Step too short/
Instead you step on stones/

Verse 3

I burn bridges and walk on water/
Talk auroras while rappers turn bitches/
Them cats are so vicious/
Kitty's got claws but spitters lack balls I rap with no limits/
Cracked it, no image!/ I look like shit but pretty with spits look/
Scripts get ripped up/
Zip them lips up Mr Ill Literate's back y'all/
Time's up/ Tick tock/ tick tock/
Your sorrows are lovely/
Drown with me/
It's sink or swim and the world is watching/
You can rise above me/
Take this please/
Hope to live in this world for something/

Hook

Break the bridge/
Another broken itch/
Step too short/
Instead you step on stones/
