Rhyme Asylum – This Is Where Lyrics
Lyrics
- (Hoping for something better)
- (Hoping for something better)
Possessed
- I’m from where we have little respect for the law
- And even less for rich people that pretend to be poor
- Cold blooded hold grudges settle our scores
- Live low budget commit benefit fraud
- No justice, I perish the thought
- Fuck weapons of war, chose the pen instead of the sword
- Try and relate, we’re forced to acquire a taste
- For food past expiry dates
- (Who’s deciding my fate?) Will I rise to where messiah awaits?
- Or plunge into hell’s fiery lakes
- They fight to the death, stay bad to the bone
- Turn the price on your head to a tag on your toe
- Live and direct, never watered down
- I’m living life on the edge ‘till someone talks me down
- Grew up on the wrong side of the tracks
- Stuck in London’s underbelly fighting for scraps
Chorus
- This is where we live, this is where we die
- This is where we laugh, this is where we cry, (Hoping for something better)
- This is where we dream, this is where work
- This is where we bleed, this is where we hurt, (So let's come together)
Skirmish
- A place where silent nights are nonexistent
- Life of crime violent fights and constant killings
- Making right and wrong decisions
- If it’s a free country, why do I feel trapped by the cost of living?
- I'm between a nine to five and writing rhymes
- You gotta take what you want or get what you're given [So true]
- A loss of vision from things shining bright
- Is what your blinded by [Stop] and listen
- Cos everything that glitters ain’t gold
- And ain’t no turning back coz life is like a one way road
- We’re seen differently through the eye of big brother
- Though we all bleed red despite the skin colour
- I feel like I'm fucked 'till my times up
- Cos reality bites and life sucks
- Blood, we’re in a trap and gonna get the fuck out somehow
- Ask my boy Keedo - he know
Chorus
- This is where we live, this is where we die
- This is where we laugh, this is where we cry, (Hoping for something better)
- This is where we dream, this is where work
- This is where we bleed, this is where we hurt, (So let's come together)
Psiklone
- This is London where the devil never calls in advance
- Life’s a journey - I’m just walking the path
- Growing up I learned some big lessons
- With weapons lives come to swift ends in split seconds
- Best believe, we ain't playing happy families
- At times my yard’s descended into savage anarchy
- Most lack morality
- Money ain’t the root of all evil its people's selfish rationality
- One love to my brothers in arms
- And those struggling past on government grants
- We're all exactly the same
- We battle in vain like blood cells fighting off cancerous plague
- Rogues roaming on road holding loaded revolvers
- So I got my eyes open looking over my shoulder
- Morals dissolve in the crack smoke
- This is London - where blood runs colder than cash flow
Chorus
- This is where we live, this is where we die
- This is where we laugh, this is where we cry, (Hoping for something better)
- This is where we dream, this is where work
- This is where we bleed, this is where we hurt, (So let's come together)
