Bashy - Fire In The Booth lyrics

They don't wanna see us man prevail
They don't wanna see us man excel
They wanna see us with straps on
Crack or with crack for sale
Selling white cause they used to
Have blacks for sale or selling brown
Break that down - sell ourselves
Or drink alcohol until we wet ourselves
And we wake up in the
Morning and forget ourselves
Sip codeine, like it betters our health
And pop Mollies?
When did taking drugs become cool, huh?
Have these brothers gone potty?
Man tell these kids to stop takin’ the piss
I don’t give a shit who's offended by this
Yeah this industry is full of house niggas
Go on run along in the house niggas
Might as well go paint your face
You bunch of clown niggas i keep it real
It's easier to escape from the field
But them man would rather strike a deal
Can't survive without their deal
They’d rather eat the cake in the house
Than to stick together outside
Try to make a mil but everybody got a choice
Man I see these grown men acting like boys
They will sell you out for HMV
Not the store though
His master's voice… slaves
Them pussies are moist
I seen it, wouldn’t believe it
I feel like Lethal Bizzle, leave it
I had to show you the truth, Steve McQueen it
Look, you see these brothers get
Deals and act brand new
I holla'd for collabs they said ‘no can do’
Cool, they get dropped, then holla at who?
Me? Fuck off, no thank you
Keep your wack tunes, behind the scenes
That’s the kinda shit that the fans don’t see
No label now them brear’s are missing
We're still able, we’re self-sufficient
They flop, they drop
They failed their mission
Blinded by lights it impaired their vision
Stayed independent, was our decision
10 years later we’re here
Them man are finished!
Wooo! That’s out of order!
Send it out to my supporters
Who stayed loyal when the labels ignored us
Last year we had to turn down Warner!
Can't afford us
So we did it ourselves… all us
We made more than they offered… poor us
So who you rating now, them man or us? Huh?
I heard Dappy threw jabs at me
Man ended up on reality
TV and, that's the reality
My only diss was dismiss it casually karma
I get paid to act, don't have time for drama
Nah blood, I'm grown
Listen, look, check me out
Jazzie B had a dream, Mega had a dream
Wiley had a dream, therefore I had a dream
Black boys, black boys, we had a whole scene
And take black music and
Paint it Professor Green
Listen, that ain't even shots at Pro
So, please, save all your comments below, mad
They had this planned out years ago
Call black music urban to gain control
There's an elephant in the room
And if it doesn't end, then we're doomed
They strip us down so we don't have a voice
Gotta stick together now
We don't have a choice
For control they do all sorts
Y'know, evil is normal
They used to kill black man
And call it lynching
Now they kill black men and call it lawful
Listen, either way we are taking an L
Want Heaven on earth but I'm living in Hell
Everybody's shook to say it
I'm just keeping it real
And all these rappers screaming
Independent need to chill
Look, let's keep it real
You man all had deals
We're the real deal, cause
When them majors came, them man were all out
They're only screaming independent cause
It's cool now
And I know people are gonna be like "rah
Can't believe Bashy said this shit"
If you're real than you rate it
If not you'll be on some defensive shit
I weren't even gonna say it
Then I thought "nah
I'm fucking all the censorship"
This world's too sensitive, trust me

I get love everywhere that I go
So I go everywhere on my own
Cause, I'm positive
I get that respect from the roads
You next rappers talk bad
But can't walk on your own
You're like the Liverpool anthem
You never walk alone
You man stink like you never wore cologne
What? Thirty grand watch but you haven't
Bought a home? Listen
That's the kind of shit that we ain't rating
Get your mum off the estate fam
Get an estate agent
Just left your mum on the estate aging
Aspire blud, think higher up
Put some money down - be a proprietor
Open a company - be the director
I ain't talking 'bout films
When I say director look, let me direct ya
Got a good idea, you ain't
Got the dough? Cool
Get yourself a financier
They'll take a percentage based on
How quick you get
The money back and how much they are lending
Listen, these other rappers
Stunt, it's impressive, cool
I could do it too, but
Bruv, I've got a message, listen
Fire in the booth, now we tell the truth
These other rappers blind you
With their like
With their belt and their whip and that
I could do that but, I'm trying to
Tell you how to get it, you
Get what I'm saying? They'll be just stunting
On you, don't buy into it
Half of it's rubbish anyway
And if we was to do it, we would just do it
Properly like, we're trying to link
With people behind the brands
And build our own ting
Listen, check me out, look
Uh, Bish Bash Bosh aka Bashy
These rappers pose for 'em
I'm ducking the papparazzi
Cool, he might be in a Louboutin store
The difference is
I'm with Christian Louboutin
But that's too flashy check the Daily Mail
I'm pissed I let the cameras catch me
Man, I've got the pictures
I don't even Instagram them
Cause everybody's cool
Until you're smashing it
People hate when they think
You're leaving 'em, or catching 'em
Baby girl, I ain't like them other dudes
Look, if I give you peace
Then I'll puzzle you
Romance, but no love letters
Man, I'll give you the D and a W!

Listen, please, God father, please
God father
I got time for a lot of things but not drama
I make a move people clock after
And by the time they do it's
Mo Farah gone past ya (nnnyiao)
Ya whip's like mine but mine's a lot faster
Ya girl’s as nice as mine
But mine's a lot smarter
And my time costs more, call it Yachtmaster
You’re any Datejust available when
People call ya
The recessions been depressing it’s
Been a lot harder
So my fee is the fee, we do not barter
Got a charge a, skip the blah blah
And palaver, send the larger
Super fast partner or just kiss my arse
Karma legally killing 'em, manslaughter
Break that down, man's laughter
Bish Bash Bosh, I done a deal with Starter
Go and getcha 'arder, out to my grafters
Look, saving every penny is necessary
And very important even though it's boring
So even if you've got it
You ain't gotta floss it
That's how you become the topic of the gossip
People spend their whole life tryn'a impress
People who don't like them
What for? That's long
Keep it humble like them rich, wise men
Listen, look i'm just passing on of wisdom
You play sports? Save your money
In case you get injured
You're on the roads, save your dough
You don't know who's snitching
You make music - buy
Yourself some studio equipment
Reinvestment, that's how you beat the system
Let's be some winners, not a bunch of niggas
Tryna get the money pot bigger
We'll get there a lot quicker
Listen, if everybody chips in
No, it's not cray, it's mad!
This ain't the US fam, this is England
Stephen Graham, United Kingdom
Stacking that Lizzy until it
Turns to Williams
Sometimes we just wanna release
You can't feel alive if you ain't living
It's frustrating like, I dunno
When you wanna fuck and only got to finger
You know them ones when you
Went to link ya girl
You thought you was gonna get
To smash and you didn't
You could only slip in the hand frustration

Look, see these brothers on
Their Instagram antics?
Fronting and they're stunting like
They're really living lavish
All this Louis V but brother
You ain't been to Paris!
Uh, you should be embarrassed! Young boy
This isn't no place for your trackie
Pull your jeans up cause we
Don't wanna see your batty
Get some fittings on cause you
Can't be wearing baggies
But, I'm sick of seeing these
Dudes dressing like the gyallies
Look, what's wrong with these damn fools?
It's like they're gonna be in drag soon
All this tight leather everywhere
Looking like Halle Berry in a catsuit
I'm at my premiere in a black suit
The way I move's rare for a black dude
They said "who's that white
Man in your photo, bash?"
Jean-Paul Gaultier, that's who

Man, we're sitting down just conversating
With some influential people
Inspiring ourselves you could do it too

Paracetamol for breakfast
In a Paris city mall for breakfast
Pret-à manger, pret-à manger
Des oeufs, des croissants et
Des oranges, des, c’est bon
Oui, oui, pas de pi-pi
C’est les Champs-Élysées
À six heures, pas de policiers
Dans les louvres, Mona Lisa
Je crois loué un voiture Mercedes Benz
Oui, oui
Moncler moto, c’est la vie be the motto
Work for my Ps, grind hard, F the lotto
I’m influential, I pull strings like Ed Otto
I spit so they swallow, haters wanna oppose
My darg’s got the full thing
If you want hollows
We used to swap games like Grand Theft Auto
Now we swap Roleys, call that time borrowed
