Exclusively Amazin' E.D.M./Progressive House/Funky Jazzy House Music Track's!!.

Populist movements often claim to represent “the people,” but this definition can be exclusionary, marginalising those who do not fit a certain demographic or ideological mould. As a British-born Black person who respects diversity and supports LGBTQ+ rights, it is natural to question one’s place in a society where such movements gain traction. This essay explores the effectiveness of appeasement in dealing with populism, examines Reform UK’s policies and their vision for the UK, and reflects on historical parallels with 1930s Germany, all from the perspective of a Black British individual.

[Verse 1]
(I do) I love you, BBC
I do, but you exploit me
I do, you ask me keep quiet
I do, but I must riot

[Chorus]
You take advantage while
They hang me out to dry
But I can't keep quiet tonight
Free (I do)

[Verse 2]
(I do) I'm just a working man
I do, not a saintly fan
I do, Jamaican ruffian
I do, face your strict command

[Chorus]
You take advantage while
They spread their hate around
But I can't hold my tongue tonight
Free


[Verse 3]
(I do) What must I do to prove
I do, to make you love me too
I do, you educate me still
I do, but need to feel

[Chorus]
You take advantage while
They hang me out to dry
But I can't keep quiet tonight
No, I can't keep quiet tonight
Free

[Outro]
I do
I do
I do
I do

You Take Advantage

A Beat Untitled By Edwin H. Balder

Verse 1:
On the dance floor, lights shimmering down,
Saw you with her, my heart hit the ground.
You were once mine, she was my confide,
Now you're together, with nowhere to hide.

Pre-Chorus:
Every beat drop, every turn and twist,
Reminds me of moments, now lost in the mist.
She came in-between, stole the love so discreet,
Now I'm left with the rhythm, of my own heartbeat.

Chorus:
Dance of deceit, under the neon lights,
She took you away, on one of those nights.
Now every step, every groove, every line,
Echoes the betrayal, you once were mine.

Verse 2:
Trust broken, friendship shattered on the floor,
Never thought she'd be the one, to close love's door.
With every song, memories replay,
How she danced into your life, took you away.

Pre-Chorus:
In the club's haze, in the DJ's trance,
I lost you both, to a forbidden dance.
Caught in the music, of lies and cheat,
Wondering how, she moved so fleet.

Chorus:
Dance of deceit, in the club's glow,
She danced you away, now I'm dancing solo.
With every beat, every rhythm so fine,
I feel the sting, you were once mine.

Bridge:
In the strobe lights, secrets unfold,
Tales of a friendship, now turned cold.
Should I confront, or let it slide?
Torn between feelings, with nowhere to hide.

Chorus:
Dance of deceit, as the bass hits hard,
She played her cards, left me scarred.
Now every melody, every rewind,
Sings of betrayal, you were once mine.

Outro:
Maybe one day, the beats will align,
Till then, I'll dance away the pain, in time.
But with every track, in the playlist's spree,
I'll remember the dance, when you were with me.

Dance Of Deceit (Remix)

[Verse 1]
Save your love, my darling, save your love
Even though you're far away from me
A serenade I long to sing you
Love like ours will last eternally
How it felt to love and hold you
Darling, I will love you endlessly
For summer nights with moon and stars above
(I can't forget the words I told you)
(Save your love)
I can't forget the words I told you

[Refrain]
How it felt to love and hold you
The reddest rose I always bring you
(The reddest rose I always bring you)
How it felt to love and hold you
(How it felt to love and hold you)
(How it felt to love and hold you)

[Verse 2]
Time zones blur, but I still feel your pulse,
Late-night streams where our emotions convulse.
No Wi-Fi in this devotion—
We’re the ultimate slow motion.
(Save your love) ‘Cause chaos can’t dissolve us.

[Bridge]
Distance tried, but we’re still synced in time,
Your laugh’s my ringtone, stuck on replay, in rhyme.
No glitch in this connection—
We’re the viral exception.
Save your love, ‘cause baby, you’re my prime.

[Chorus]
Save your love, my darling, save your love,
For every crash and every rise above.
A million DMs just to reach you,
My heart’s the algorithm to teach you—
Save your love for the us we’re dreaming of.

[Post-Chorus]
(Whoa-oh, save your love for me)
(Whoa-oh, our infinity)
(Whoa-oh, you’re my gravity)
(Whoa-oh, save your love for me)

[Outro]
(Save your love) Through screen-lit skies, I trace your name,
(Save your love) Our highs outshine the static, no shame.
(Save your love) Like a drop that breaks the silence,
(Save your love) You’re my future in 4K defiance—
(Save your love) Save your love.

Save Your Love

On ‘Just Like a Flower,’ the debut solo EP from the Cathedrals producer, Johnny Hwin explores a more intimate, vocal-based form of his trademark dance music. After leaving his San Francisco art warehouse The Sub for New York City, he established another community space and the new label 57 Records. “Love Is All I Need” grew out of “a melody that wouldn’t let me sleep,” he says, while “You’re Still On My Mind” is a “sad song dressed in disco pants.” Hear more in this exclusive commentary, only on SoundCloud.

Voice Notes: HWIN on "Love Is All I Need"

Fantasy (Dance Version)

[Chorus]
Ain't no question that I need it, I breathe it
Feel my legacy just slipping away from me
On the Overground, so why you faking? I'm saying
I will never let these concrete walls fall down, down, down

Not for nothing, I foresaw this, I dreamed it
Feel my future slowly drifting away from me
No more chances, if you waste this, you’re faithless
I will never let these concrete walls fall down, down, down

[Verse 1]
Council estate chances, the siren dances
And eventually answers to the call of crisis
All them falling for the talk of balling
Get caught with nothing, the cop just looks indifferent
Inter-city anthems based on inner-city problems
Based off the way that we're painted
Face it, my man gets more stops than a tourist
And in the station, they check right through my bag
And tell me that it's random
But we stay building
This whole scheme is a bad design, it needs a proper ending
And a new funding, and a new feeling
And some real opportunities that's fulfilling
This the real world, brother, school’s finished
They done stole the youth clubs, you don't know who did it
I treat this postcode the way the council treats hope
I won't be satisfied 'til all my people get it, get it?

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Is 'community' a euphemism for a new sedition?
The soul of Windrush that this new youth is missing?
But this is more than just my road to ambition
Gil Okoro got the whole estate locked in attention
Long as I'm in a tracksuit smiling, they think they own me
But they’d try to break me if they ever saw the real me
Thought I chose a field where they couldn't sack me
If a brother ain't kicking a football, winning a track meet
But this king is at the top of Brixton Hill, fearless
Ready for their games, this is my Olympics
They call us Humbaba when the tower gets pimpish
Sprayed a mural on the hoardings with a message
I insisted to get right up off their guest list
And these photo-ops, man, I can’t digest it
Reminds me how they treated my mother, so disrespected
If I ever wasn't for the people, I must have missed it

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I need less talk and more light
And that Home Office minister out of my sight
She told the papers she's trying to clean up the schools
Then sent Project Taurus with their riot-squad rules
It's been a minute since I watched the news
'Cause like a blocked drain, I got way too many blues for any more bad views
Was looking at my brother, feeling real blessed that day
They deploy the Bull of Heaven, now Kofi's yesterday
And what's a Black hero anyway? A fuckin' story?
I guess that's why they got my brother's name in their reports
My man said I need a different resort
'Cause people are looking at me like I’m gonna fall short
It's not a headline anymore, try different tropes
Tell 'em hug and kiss my grief, X and O
And kiss the ring while they at it, build a thing while I got it
Play strings for the tragic ending of that foul shit
Act like I ain't lost a brother in this madness
I ain't got him, I'm building over whoever who had us
I’m building over whoever, who had us
You blowing up our ends, that's good? Fantastic
That, y'all, it's like that, y'all
I don't really give a damn about a wrecking ball
'Cause the same system that tried to blackball me
Forgot about two things: these bricks and my memory

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
Ayy, yo
I done seen plans, lived in vans, fam
Seen vulture funds, empty clubs, steal the land from these hands
Counting Ls, smoking, one hope
Live from the towpath, a Specu-Let bag, grabbing the plans, fuck it
Steam about a hundred and one lives
Kites off to Dawkins, buying time, running up in Bridge Park
That man’s archive was special
Matched every struggle with a victory, fighting policies for decimals
The older head, the bolder head, he trained a leader’s head
Said immortality’s a plant that you must water till you’re dead
That meant code-red, bent off the black smoke
From a burnt-out bus depot, he spoke his oath
If you can't live, you're building, you give or buy in...

Walls of Brixton

[Intro]
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh
Yeah
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
Let’s go

[Verse 1]
Dime, baby, tell me, is this what you fear?
(Dime, dime, ¿esto es lo que tú temes?)
I’m a new design, this is high-tech tier
You see a clown, a new kid, some cheap fakery
I'm the main event, I'm the code, the key
Got the vision, got the drive, yeah, I got the drive
Build it in the dark just to feel alive
So much data that, that I love it when
You hate my ambition, so I sin again
You don’t get what it’s like to break the code, to own the future
While the flight attendant gives me love up in the stratosphere
What it’s like to bet it all on a single play, no fear
That's why your cold gaze just hits me like zero
That’s why you’re stuck in the past, and me, I’m your new hero
They ain't scholars now, they're just podcasters, babe
My algorithm’s making more than their whole wage
Building and loving across a brand new stage, ey, ey

[Chorus]
Sippin' on codeine, we’re never running low
First came the old guard, then we stole the show
If the future saw me, it'd say I'm built to go
You’re talking old news, while my crew and I fly to Monaco
Sippin' on codeine, we’re never running low
You’re talking to yourself, just talking to the echo
The bitcoin symbol, babe, that’s my new zodiac sign
Light up the night, 'cause your old world is mine

[Interlude:]
Hier encore, j'avais vingt ans
Je caressais le temps, et jouais de la vie...
(Yesterday, I was twenty. I caressed time, and played with life...)

[Verse 2]
Believe me, love, the future’s faster in the flesh
Your cosy clique is pretty, but my world is fresh
What you believe in just don’t impress me now
It's like building a castle after the kings are underground
They don't even see you outside your ivory tower
Yesterday I linked with minds that hold the real power
They asked me how I’m changing up the whole game
We talk about the new world and re-writing every name
I say, the future, I say, the system, I say, our love story
For a minute now, your status quo has only bored me
A while ago I quit their game, I left it for the doddery clowns
Look, a memo to your diary
Today the server paid out, the future nominated me
Once again you criticized me, but your words ain't validating me
I'm still chill, in my zone
Don Corleone, Don anything I wanna own
For the kids we’ll have, I’ll leave a hundred start-up codes
To my queen, all the passion that my heart bestows
And to your hubris, an AI with a virus load

[Pre-Chorus]
For what? So they can fall down, yeah, so they can all shatter
Red pill, blue pill, babe, which one even matters?
For what? So they can fall down, so they can all shatter (all shatter)
Let 'em rest in history, I'm writin' the next chapter, yeah.

[Chorus]
Sippin' on codeine, we’re never running low! (No!)
First came the old guard, then we stole the show
If the future saw me, it'd say I'm built to go
You’re talking old news, while my crew and I fly to Monaco
Sippin' on codeine, we’re never running low
You’re talking to yourself, just talking to the echo
The bitcoin symbol, babe, that’s my new zodiac sign
Light up the night, 'cause your old world is mine

[Outro]
Comme on joue de l'amour, et je vivais la nuit
(As one plays with love, and I lived by night)
Sans compter sur mes jours, qui fuyaient dans le temps...
(Without counting my days, that fled in time...)

Sippin'

(Intro)
Uh
Yeah
The story of life, though
The story of life, though, you know?
Uh

(Chorus)
Put your fists to the constellations
This feeling inside is a dual sensation, uh
I know I'm speaking to the whole congregation
We pray for peace, but you done learned a lot from hatin', haha
I mean, a spirit did a lot of straining
We ain't at peace, but tonight I feel some changing.

(Verse 1)
Let me tell you the tale of the hands of man
A story of good and evil, you gotta understand.
The Left Hand, that's Hate, a heavy, bitter fist
The one that Cain used, a brother's love dismissed.
Static in the air, a world of pure spite
Always spoiling for a brawl in the pale moonlight.
Then you got the Right, the hand of pure Love
Five fingers reaching for the soul, sent from above.
But in this tragic hour, I've seen good people
Make rash decisions, oh, they do it.
What happened to vision? Oh, they lose it.
They putting on their anger, they casually abuse it.
Text message warfare, the casualty of pride
How they gon' wake up and not have love inside?
I thought Hate was the problem, I guess it's rubbin' off
Hood phenomenon, the David of the block.
Hard to stay righteous when you're fighting on a jumbotron
I'm looking at the world like, "This what you really wanted, huh?"
Why we battle anyway? Oh, I forgot, it's humankind's climb.

(Chorus)
Put your fists to the constellations
This feeling inside is a dual sensation, uh
I know I'm speaking to the whole congregation
We pray for peace, but you done learned a lot from hatin', haha
I mean, a spirit did a lot of straining
We ain't at peace, but tonight I feel some changing.

(Verse 2)
When the sun goes down, it's the tragic hour, the tragic hour
And outta all the feelings that'll fill up the soul
You got rage on your mind, I can see it take its toll.
Why you standing there with your face all screwed up?
Don't quit while you're losing, that's how Hate gets juiced up.
Throwin' fists around, the whole world screwed up
Maybe I should call the Lord, so he can pray for us.
I hit the streets to think, at the block, take a seat
Ordered up some peace, she said you are what you eat, haha.
You see, I always loved that sense of truth
But tonight, you should have seen how quiet the youth was.
The Ali of amity, the Frazier of the fight
It's a devastating right, and Hate is losing light.
Hate's on the ropes now, yeah, down for the count
Left hand, malice, K.O.'d, no doubt.
If I love you, I love you, that's the story's end
But if I hate you... well, we can still amend.

(Chorus)
Put your fists to the constellations
This feeling inside is a dual sensation, uh
I know I'm speaking to the whole congregation
We pray for peace, but you done learned a lot from hatin', haha
I mean, a spirit did a lot of straining
We ain't at peace, but tonight I feel some changing.

(Outro)
Lookin' at my Right, I bet it saves your very soul.
Lookin' at my Left, it'll turn your heart to stone.
Two-fisted monster, with a will of its own
Love wins the title, on a cherry-red throne.
Uh.
Peace.

Love vs Hate

[Intro]
Yo, listen close...

[Verse 1]
Private chat, thought it was sealed, then it turned to a raid (Raid!)
Words twisted, exposed and wild, my whole trust just decayed (Damn!)
Leak hit the feed, a profound betrayal, a deep wound they made
Eyes glued to the screen, watching my whole spirit get flayed
Then a big man stepped up, prominent, filled with that hate
Singled me out, presented me as enemy, sealed my damn fate
Amplified the lies, exposed me to the wider public’s gate
Feeling so vulnerable, for my whole family, can't concentrate
Black employee, progressive views, they wanted me done
Targeted for my skin, for the beliefs I’d become, nowhere to run.

[Chorus]
Nah, my people didn't support me when I'm wounded (Wounded!)
So I just block out this deep dread, thoughts often surrounded (Surrounded!)
Stay in my grind and not in these bad feelings, profoundly grounded (Grounded!)
Overthink too much, my mind's fractured, start to sleep less, my peace is hounded (Sleep less!)
Yeah, me, I just deal with these fakes how they deceit me (Deceit me!)
They show their true colours, now I see clearly.

[Verse 2]
PSB’s response, yo, that made it worse, understand?
More worried ‘bout headlines, reputational risk in their hand
Not my wellbeing, nah, just tryna discipline their own man
No support, no protection, left me stranded in this land
Institutional betrayal, yeah, that trauma ran deep
Feeling abandoned, isolated, while my whole system would weep
Flashbacks hitting hard, when that screen first caused me to creep
Hypervigilance always, watching for whispers while I sleep (Shhh!)
Avoidin' all Slack, any conversation, can't feel safe in these rooms
Another leak, another target, just waiting for the next dooms.

[Chorus]
Nah, my people didn't support me when I'm wounded (When I'm wounded, nah!)
So I just block out this deep dread, thoughts often surrounded (Deep dread!)
Stay in my grind and not in these bad feelings, profoundly grounded (Stay grounded!)
Overthink too much, my mind's fractured, start to sleep less, my peace is hounded (Sleep less, yeah!)
Yeah, me, I just deal with these fakes how they deceit me (Deceit me, fam!)
They show their true colours, now I see clearly.

[Bridge]
My sleep's all disrupted, panic attacks hit like a storm (Storm!)
Beta blockers just trying to keep my shaking body warm
This ain't just stress, it's PTSD, took a different form
Breach of trust, public shaming, institutional scorn
Identity-based targeting, left me out in the cold, soaked in the rain
Still trying to recover, feeling these effects, daily, daily pain.

[Chorus]
Nah, my people didn't support me when I'm wounded (When I'm wounded, God!)
So I just block out this deep dread, thoughts often surrounded (Deep dread, yeah!)
Stay in my grind and not in these bad feelings, profoundly grounded (Stay strong!)
Overthink too much, my mind's fractured, start to sleep less, my peace is hounded (Can't sleep!)
Yeah, me, I just deal with these fakes how they deceit me (Deceit me, always!)
They show their true colours, now I see clearly!

[Outro]
Can't trust these spaces...
Leaked words...
Still here... still breathing... 
No peace...

PTSD - Targeted By Political Thugs

[Intro]
O— yeah.
Uh-huh.
Okay, let’s go.

[Chorus]
Steppin' in dark like a true spirit (Spirit)
Their old ways keep causing a tantrum (Tantrum)
Woke mind, I set the whole vibe lit (Vibe lit)
My words, they're the new nation's anthem (Anthem)
Forget gold, I crave true freedom (Freedom)
My folk now pushing new narratives (Narratives)
Got minds shifting all over
'Cause I'm conscious, sharp and I'm grounded (Alright)
If they spill lies, then I'll challenge them (Challenge them)
Their old views, they're now abandoned (Abandoned)
They've never brought no insight, blud
They've never shown no true traction
Nah, I'm centered on my purpose (Purpose)
Justice, spirit, and wisdom (Wisdom)
Their hate and fear feel hollow (Woah)
In the long run, it's just a distraction (Hey, yeah)

[Verse 1]
Media wanna paint me poor, angry, and dim, fam
But I know my spirit’s glowing, gifted, a true star, fam
Blud, what false promises are they brewing now?
Always find a way to make a come-up when
No one is watching the game anyhow
Yeah, Saint George was a melanin man, you heard it clear and loud
I'm embedding truth in the Union Jack, emerging from the clouded shroud
She wants me back in her space, the magnetic pull is potent
Think I'm a threat? Mate, I absolutely am, unapologetic and outspoken
They holler 'bout my laziness, then scream I snatch their daily chore
Their filter bubble's driving me insane, can't take their contradictions no more
Just silence your prejudiced chatter, mate, just quieten your loud gob
Your double standards ain't slick, nah, they just clearly expose your twisted mob.

[Chorus]
Steppin' in dark like a true spirit (Spirit)
Their old ways keep causing a tantrum (Tantrum)
Woke mind, I set the whole vibe lit (Vibe lit)
My words, they're the new nation's anthem (Anthem)
Forget gold, I crave true freedom (Freedom)
My folk now pushing new narratives (Narratives)
Got minds shifting all over
'Cause I'm conscious, sharp and I'm grounded (Alright)
If they spill lies, then I'll challenge them (Challenge them)
Their old views, they're now abandoned (Abandoned)
They've never brought no insight, blud
They've never shown no true traction
Nah, I'm centered on my purpose (Purpose)
Justice, spirit, and wisdom (Wisdom)
Their hate and fear feel hollow (Woah)
In the long run, it's just a distraction (Hey, yeah)

[Verse 2]
I’m black, confident, standing tall, and I'm firmly here to stay
Nigel, that political trickster, he's rich while your pockets are empty every day
Do I need to spell it out, the blatant truth for you to comprehend?
Their divisive games benefit them, a broken cycle that will never mend.
I’m woke, black, and handsome, carrying ancient wisdom's light
I’ve come to claim my sacred birthright, shining ever so bright.
She wants me in her chamber tonight, drawn to the powerful vibe within
Edmonton, this ain't just a borough; it's my kingdom where my spirit can begin.
This is my land, my story, carved in every brick and every tree
From the roots of my ancestors, this vibrant legacy lives through me.
So tell your bigots, your naysayers, their time of fear is truly done
We’re rewriting the future now, beneath the rising, liberating sun.

[Bridge]
Yeah, the rhythm of resistance beats steady, deep in my soul's core
Got that old school soul, with a fresh fire, pushing them to explore
They call us threats, but we just shine, too bright for their dim eyes to ever truly see
This heritage ain't borrowed, it's woven into the very fabric of me.
(Soulful vocal ad-lib: "Oh, it's mine, it's mine, yeah...")

[Chorus]

It's Just A Distraction

[Intro]
Black minds across the world now (yeah)
Move swiftly to uplift the diverse community (Daw loops)
New dreams, future built, and we ain't sleeping
Our purpose now we're seizing (Home-made beats!)

[Chorus]
My spirit is a true path-breaker (Oh, yeah)
Small room, all the old ones judge me (They judge me)
Young talent, charting like an old legend (Ah)
Quickly speak the truth, watch it rise slowly (Slowly)
Old guards still trying to stay seated (Trying to stay seated)
Skeptics stay tense for all fucking wrong reasons (Yeah, yeah)
Truth in the air, minds waking (Oh, oh)
They feel it when my message hits the stereo (And they feel it)

[Verse 1]
Focused so deep, I ain't even flinching
What kind of future are they building?
New plans, new pathways to be paved
No explanations for the changes we've made
I'm a determined black leader, new seat at the table
Boardroom battles, they all want to save face
World's shifting, AI might change the whole space
I'm not one of the boys, but I got my own lane
Believe in diverse views, not playing their game
Never brown nose, always speak my own truth
Can't chain my vision, shining like proof.

[Chorus]
My spirit is a true path-breaker (Oh, yeah)
Small room, all the old ones judge me (They judge me)
Young talent, charting like an old legend (Ah)
Quickly speak the truth, watch it rise slowly (Slowly)
Old guards still trying to stay seated (Trying to stay seated)
Skeptics stay tense for all fucking wrong reasons (Yeah, yeah)
Truth in the air, minds waking (Oh, oh)
They feel it when my message hits the stereo (And they feel it)

[Verse 2]
Walked in with bold thoughts, look like rebels in plain clothes
Old mindsets only show me to new systems
Black voice, firm stand, bright future, let's go
The old ones don't like what I put on the feed
My views are my own, planted a powerful seed
They tell me to hush, keep my head low and stay quiet
But I speak out loud, causing a mindful riot
Can't let the small-minded win, that's not our end goal
This office floor bends when I say so
I can't worry 'bout a slow thinker or a gatekeeper

[Chorus]
My spirit is a true path-breaker (Oh, yeah)
Small room, all the old ones judge me (They judge me)
Young talent, charting like an old legend (Ah)
Quickly speak the truth, watch it rise slowly (Slowly)
Old guards still trying to stay seated (Trying to stay seated)
Skeptics stay tense for all fucking wrong reasons (Yeah, yeah)
Truth in the air, minds waking (Oh, oh)
They feel it when my message hits the stereo (And they feel it)

[Outro]
Stand up, be counted, let your light show it...
We believe in us...
Black Star... yeah... 
Rising...

Black Star

In danger (2025 unmastered and unreleased

[Intro]
No one clocked it, fam, not back in twenty-five.
Man were just living, tryna get by on the daily grind.
No one thought we were being watched from the deep ends of the galaxy.
Spied on like a science project, a specimen for their whole faculty.
Barely a man considered life on other planets, that's real.
But across the void, intellects way bigger than ours were watching this Earth with a mad appeal.
And slow, and steady, they were drawing up their plans against our people.
I was on a job for the Beeb, setting up mics in a Hackney steeple. This is what I saw.

[Verse 1]
Was a Tuesday, twelfth of August, midnight on the dot.
A mad green light erupted from the sky, speeding towards our block.
Two hundred million miles of darkness, silent, flying at our ends.
The first of the drops that was gonna bring pure chaos to my friends.
As I'm watching, another flash, another streak of gas.
It's a second canister, starting its long journey, moving fast.

[Chorus]
The odds of a drop from the stars were a milli' to one, he said.
The odds of a drop from the stars were a milli' to one, filling our head…
But still, they landed.


[Verse 2]
Next morning, Pymmes Park is taped off, a brand new crater on the scene.
The mandem are gathered 'round, phones out, living in a waking dream.
A cylinder, thirty yards wide, still burning hot from the flight.
And you can hear faint sounds from inside, something moving in the fading light.
Then the lid starts turning, a slow, unscrewing motion.
Some youngers thought a man was trapped, full of brave-faced emotion.
They rushed the canister, but the heat pushed them back from the metal, too hot to touch the frame.
Everyone just stood there, waiting to see who was playing this mad game.


[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
The lid just dropped. Silence. Then two glowing disc-like eyes.
A massive rounded body, bigger than a bear, starts to slowly rise.
Shining like black oil, slick and wet, it made my stomach heave.
No mouth, just quivering flesh, and tentacles you wouldn't believe.
A couple youngers edged closer, tryna get a clip for the socials.
Then a tall funnel rose up, and a heat beam jumped, beyond brutal.
A blinding glare as each one of them was instantly turned to ash.
Every bush and tree just burst into a blaze in a single flash.


[Refrain]
People were screaming, clambering over fences, and fam, I ran too.
I felt like I was being hunted, that this red light would just melt me and my crew.
It was meant to be a normal night in N9… just another night in my zone...
Now the sky is burning… and we are not alone. 

(Verse 4)
I got back to my yard on the Galliard, sunk into a haunted sleep.
Woke up to alien sounds, something hammering from the crater deep.
Slapped on my sliders, ran to the corner shop to grab the morning paper.
'Round me, the daily routine, life was carrying on, no time for a vapour.
The 491 bus still rolling serene, mums doing the school run.
While in Pymmes Park, they were building their machines, sleepless under our sun.
Now and then a red beam, like a searchlight from a warship, swept the green.
And I knew that savage Heat Ray was ready to follow, making the whole scene obscene.

[Verse 5]

"Anyone there? Anyone breathing?"

"Come in, fam. What's the reason?"

"They rinsed us, bruv. Wiped us out. Hundreds gone, thousands I doubt… even made it that far."

"The Heat Ray?"

War of Worlds (part 1)

[Intro]
This pressure's gettin' heavy
This pressure's gettin' heavy
This pressure's gettin' heavy
This pressure's gettin' heavy

[Verse 1]
Work stress, the daily folly, the snakes in the walls move jolly.
They gaslight the facts, then ghost all your calls.
Feeling trapped by the leaks, the disciplinary stress.
This shame's not mine to carry, but it’s heavy on my chest.
Too worn down to be haughty, too wired to be naughty.
Just tryna make it past forty, my whole story feels faulty.
The juice of their gossip, the smile of a despot.
They call you a failure, put you on the spot.
I’m sitting on a landmine, tryna cure my own damn mind.

[Chorus]
Breathe in for the four, hold it for the four.
Breathe out for the six, push it out your door.
Find five things you see, four things you can feel.
Three things you can hear, make one of them real.
This ain’t about the win, it's the fight for the next hour.
Just give yourself five percent more power.

[Verse 2]
Don’t sit in the dark, scrolling through their profile.
Don’t drown in the quiet, don’t force a fake smile.
This ain't saying okey-dokey, no sing-a-long a Smokie.
This feeling got me locked down, stuck inside the chokie.
Too drained to call a buddy, feeling emotionally nuddy.
My thoughts are getting muddy, my vision's going blurry.
Don't draft that long message, don't press send in a panic.
That's just the adrenaline, the cycle's satanic.

[Chorus]
Breathe in for the four, hold it for the four.
Breathe out for the six, push it out your door.
Find five things you see, four things you can feel.
Three things you can hear, make one of them real.
This ain’t about the win, it's the fight for the next hour.
Just give yourself five percent more power.

[Bridge]
Yo, a quick safety check, are you safe right now, fam?
If the answer's no, or you're not sure, just understand…
There's a lifeline to grab, a voice on the line.
Text SHOUT to 85258, that’s a real good sign.
Or copy this text, send it to your main:
"I'm not okay, feeling overwhelmed by the strain. Can you check in on me later today?"

[Outro]
Breathe in for the four… (the next hour…) hold it for the four…
Breathe out for the six… (5% easier…) push it out your door…
Find five things you see… (the next hour…) four things you can feel…
Three things you can hear… (5% easier…) make one of them real…
