VIOLENTLYILL & GUILTY SIMPSON - CREAM FILAS FT. JAZZ SPASTIKS (LEAF DOG REMIX)

STREAM/DL 'Funky Microphone': https://bfan.link/funky-microphone﻿

A year on from ‘Mantra No. 9’ Fliptrix returns with triumphant new single ‘Funky Microphone’.

Reuniting with Leaf Dog on production, ‘Funky Microphone’ is a stellar reintroduction to Fliptrix’s world across 03:26; a wall-to-wall banger that reminds us of his steadfast dedication to the fundamentals of the game; meticulous rhyme schemes, front-footed energies and an uplifting message rooted in the art of thinking about what you say (before you grab the mic).

As Fliptrix proclaims… “Loose lips sink ships so watch what you say.”

“I’m always living this life with one foot in, one foot out…”

‘Cosmic Scenes’ is the latest single from HF wordsmith Fliptrix.

Teaming up with the incredibly talented Greentea Peng, the epic new track sees two of the UK’s most conscious minds come together to spread messages of freedom, pursuing your dreams and being the change you want to see in the world.

With Leaf Dog at his mesmerising best on production; ‘Cosmic Scenes’ stretches the listeners’ imagination beyond the limits of the real world, and in doing so, has all the makings of a MASSIVE summertime anthem.

“Started in the mind then echoed in the flesh…”

Join Fliptrix in his studio as he performs ‘Forever’, the latest track from his new album ‘Dragonfly’.

Reminiscing on the past with a view to moving onwards and upwards, the track feels like the perfect tonic for such testing times. Fliptrix’s clarity of message and striking social commentary reflecting upon a spectrum of subjects; from the carnage of the infamous London riots, to paying tribute to fallen loved ones with an immediacy that hits from the very first drum hit.

just a small rap i wrote to this track for fun. audio may be a bit scuffed. i dont own the beat or intend to profit from it. beat is evensong from the album moment in life by seasons' end . all rights go to the respective owners. this is just for fun.

rough lyrics

you tell me that its in you
you tell me ill make it through
you tell me just how to choose
you told me the wrong things to do
you told me that i can prove
all the things that would make me move
you tell me that its in you
you tell me ill make it through
you tell me just how to choose
you told me the wrong things to do
you told me that i can prove
all the things that would make me move

sometimes i really dont wana be alive,
id rather die, when i look into the mirror i dont see no eyes staring back
its like an empty husk, id like to get hit by a bus cuz there aint no one to trust, i glance to my left and to the right at the same time, walking the same line, things dont seem to change just the time of the day,
and this ones the end, i hope i dont go fast id like to relish the feel
never felt much before, do you think ill enjoy the kill? even if its my own pill, one i can see, a person may live long but he dies when the people leave, even if its on the inside the only part that breathes, fresh air to to take to the chest, if life is an essay im known to fail the test, and im not guna lie to you, apparently, i didnt do my best

you tell me that its in you
you tell me ill make it through
you tell me just how to choose
you told me the wrong things to do
you told me that i can prove
all the things would can make move
you tell me that its in you
you tell me ill make it through
you tell me just how to choose
you told me the wrong things to do
you told me that i can prove
all the things that would make me move

you told me it was you but it was me, your living in a dream life aint a fantasy, i did the deed, i wana die and maybe not see 30, 28 now and the world just seem dirty, to that of a lone soul, but the sad fact is one of choosing my own road, ill pay for this choice while taking the stroll, it was i who should have died alone laying in the cold

you tell me that its in you
you tell me ill make it through
you tell me just how to choose
you told me the wrong things to do
you told me that i can prove
all of the things that would make me move

sometimes i really dont wana be alive
id rather die when i look into the mirror i dont see no eyes staring back
its like an empty husk id rather get hit by a bus cuz there aint no one to trust, i glance to my left and to my right at the same time, walking down the same line, things dont change just the time of the day,
and this ones the end, i hope i dont go fast, id like to relish the feel,
never felt much before, do you think ill enjoy the kill? even if its my own pill, one i can see, a person may live long until he dies when the people leave, even if its on the inside, the only part that breathes, fresh air to take to the chest, if life is an essay i was known to fail the test, im not guna lie to you, apparently, i didnt do my best

its in you - seasons end evensong - layyzz remix

just a small rap i wrote to this track for fun. audio may be a bit scuffed. i dont own the beat or intend to profit from it. beat is we are from the album many reasons by joseph jacobs. all rights go to the respective owners. this is just for fun.

rough lyrics

all i want to is
be my...
all i want to is
be my...
all i want to do is 
be myself
all i want to is
be my..
all i want to is
be my...
all i want to do is 
be myself

whats with this life am i right or am i wrong yo?
seeming like i been on the right track but wrong road
i fight facts and stay strong all through the songs flow
can i really be myself if its a person i dont know?
what has the world shown when i tried to blend in?
they pushed me aside as if i died, tossed to tha wind
no friends not a single soul to help me fit in
i been home swimmin in a bowl without no fins
and how long can i cruise down a road with no end?
i gotta fill up this hole up before i turn beast from man
had a peaceful plan, things dont always go the way of a god
got lost and trapped down inside the sod, i grip my leg i couldn't jump no matter how hard i tied, i wanted to run and hide but a man aint got no time to cry
you know the people pry they wanna get at your soul, expose your fears that way you cant make it home, alone on the shoal watching the waves as they crash, i had to pick up my boots and stomp through the ash...

all i want to is 
be my...
all i want to is
be my...
all i want to do is 
be myself
all i want to is
be my..
all i want to is
be my...
all i want to do is 
be myself

often wonder why, my god how am i guna survive, i watch others as they thrive, i try to dive deep, but seem my life still aint got the right jive, its in the wrong vibe, im living, i dont know how to listen, but please just one more time could your light glisten? shine bright upon the window pane for one to see, im in the wrong lane again, i beg you set me free, ive lied to you, stolen glory, ive hated others, distorted their story, my life been super stormy, a truth of hate, one not based in your flesh, if given one more chance i promise to do my best, and theres nothing else that i can say, my face is sullen battered with sadness as anger fuels my rage, i swim through blackness trapped in my own cage, ive chosen the wrong place to move, wish that i could change this path, and ill do anything, divert the crash, please lord just give me myself back

  
i dont know how
be my..
i dont know how
be my..
i dont know how to be myself
to be myself

be myself - we are - many reasons - layyzz remix
