**LYRICS**


Life is beats Life is beats
Reframe the pain to find the peace
Life is beats Life is beats 
Play the game its not for keeps 
Not no priest but let me preach
teach a lesson that I reached 
Paint your trauma let it be
Pass to me the pistol please
promise me you won't use these
Razor blades or pharmacy's 
All you need Get on your knees
And pray to God these drums don't cease

Life is beats Life its beats
Reframe the pain to find the peace
Life is beats Life its beats
Play the game its not for keeps

4 drumless bars A step too far 
I felt your heart pulled apart
From the start you played your part
Force fed shit kept in the dark. 
I wish upon a guiding star
You see the light learn what you are
Spread the love and La Di Da
don't see a fight more like a spar
Take the hit let fear depart
Be the horse without the cart. 
Be the G I know you are
And knock life out the fucking Park

Life is beats Life is beats 
Reframe the pain to find the peace 
Life is beats Life is beats 
Play the game its not for keeps
 
Caught you early Like a chirpy birdie
 used to be all burley 
Reborn in my early thirties 
Shoehorned into something merky
Slaves all shirty churly 
percy hidden quite covertly
Topsy-turvy controversy
Held up by their Short and curlies heard me
this earthy journey can be a bit blurry
Soul gets thirsty 
But if your here with open ears
Then trust me love you're worthy. 
this earthy journey can be a bit blurry
Soul gets thirsty 
But if your here with open ears
Then trust me love you're worthy

The veil is thin as thin as skin
Minds a drum Let beats begin
Feel the pressure deep within
Catalyst of creating
Confused by adrenaline 
Meddling with the mood your in
Wrestling with gremilins
Unsetteling 
Using coke and ketamin
Choosing it as medicine 
But pain is always resident 
Can't be shy or reticent 
Expression is our resonance
Endowed with our embellishments 
Art is our preeminence 
Heaven sent benevolence 

Life is beats Life is beats 
Reframe the pain to find the peace 
Life is beats Life is beats 
Play the game its not for keeps 

Life is beats Life is beats 
Reframe the pain to find the peace 
Life is beats Life is beats 
Play the game its not for keeps 

I cant condone the moans and groans
Phoenician phones creating clones
With broken hearts and brittle bones 
They stay at home all alone 
Where they're safe and in a row
But nothing grows in a comfort zone
Higher self stays below
stays unknown nowhere to roam

See beats as friend
Never foe
What comes next
You'll never know
Expectations
Let em go 
Ego knows best
Whatever though

Life is beats Life is beats 
Reframe the pain to find the peace 
Life is beats Life is beats 
Play the game its not for keeps 

Eating meat wearing leather
When you see Ma"at how will you whether
Heavy heart ostrich feather
Flesh and cheddar
High blood pressure
No excuses whatsoever
You can do this 
you can do better 
Not on earth do you
Bury your treasure
Bury it where it lasts forever

We're stronger when we eat together
We're stronger when we sleep together 
We're stronger when we play together
We're stronger when we stay together

Bittersweet Goodbye

Creme De La Blend (CDLB) Presents;
B2X The Chronicles Vol. 3 - “Classics” Narrated by Flewid MC (Mixdown by BLIX)

B2X Chronicles is a mix series that was born of the idea that underpins the Creme De La Blend community, that our sum total is greater than our parts. "We are always Sum < One"
The idea of the series was to take 10 selectors, from 10 geographical locations, bringing their own styles to each contribute 10 mins of what makes up a continuous mix.

Vol 3 - "Classics" is a follow on to the 2nd volume "Liquid" which was a beautiful project combining some of the best Liquid D&B to have ever surfaced, expertly combined by some of the most incredible selectors. 

This "CLASSICS" Volume is a journey through some of the most captivating D&B must deemed "classics" by those selectors involved, narrated by myself (Flewid MC) This time all neatly bundled together in the theme of story -telling - A tale for the ages.

MASSIVE THANKS TO BLIX FOR KINDLY LENDING HIS PRODUCTION WIZARDRY TO HELP MIX THIS DOWN AND SHINE THOSE PROVERBIAL VOCAL TURDS.

Late Night Talks (J Dilla - Life) - Flewid X Kristie Holiday X Fateless

Its finally here.... something that has been undoubtedly the most cathartic offering that I have put out in my 18 years of MC'ing / Mixing.

DJ Fluent Presents - Flewid MC 2020 Introspection spray out.

This is a short 15 minute piece that is both mixed by me and with me also providing vocals.

I have made some real changes in late 2019 that allowed me to re-ignite my passion for writing lyrics and spitting and as a result, started penning again at a rapid rate. Taking influences from my own life experiences, my journey, my friends, my family and my new aspirations towards cognitive hypnotherapy and my philosophies on how we progress......
I wanted to take a retrospective look at 2020 through my own eyes and put out something reflective of my thoughts and feelings.
The mix - Short, sweet, evolving and punchy.
The lyrics - based more heavily than ever around word play, multi's, linguistics and syntactics.

I mean this more than ever, thank you to all of you that have been of personal support to me over the last couple of years both in terms of my music, my personal life & my overall well intentioned absurdities.
Those that have consistently been there for me, I owe you everything (you know who you are ;) )& those that have been kind enough to provide feedback in any format, taken time out of their own lives to listen, share, re-post, comment, like, support.... you guys are the reason for this output.
So I thank you all...... So much more to come now you'll be sick of it... just remember, its also your fault...... haha.

Im not adding a TL for once as I want there to be no pre-conceptions before you choose to listen but for once, I am confident and its sprinkled with Optimism and vibes.

Finally to Marc Ramshaw who has been on-point from day 1 with everything art / branding related. Solid gold salute pal(#carners). Big Love
&
Zac Ray Sanders Nebula Music LTD who kindly mixed and mastered this out of kindness (safe Dj Mutley for the hook up) & for showing me that its not only possible to polish a turd but take lots of small turds... consolidate them into one healthy (Gillian Mckeith approving) Turd, polish it, roll it in glitter, Lacquer it and mount it on ornate finished beechwood.  Salute mate. (services available, hit him up!)

All thats left to say is.......
