Speech Debelle, Roots Manuva - Wheels In Motion lyrics

I walk the night street with lost souls
We converse in common codes
So unload our desires and wishes
Sparking spliffs is more than a
Stimulant it's how assimilate
Like at the back of the
Class charge it's only us
Teaches don't like it but they don't
Fight it instead they ignore it
We get no grades but don't look
Fazed when the exams come
It's like whatever act like it don't matter
Only mummy's face make you teeth chatter
And I remember when they told
Me I'll never make it
Too smart for my own good I get rude
When they use there authority to abuse
I'm born to prove that rules were
Made for the obedience of fools
And guidance was made for the wise so I get
Advice for those who live
Full and colorful lives
And think twice while watching what they
Tell I on they teli-vision yea
I see the way they pronounce the nouns
And listen to the way the vowels sound
Subliminal messages are allowed and
Executed by executives
Who throw pennies to beggars at
London Bridge them is hypocrites

Those wheels are in motion
Those wheels keep on turning
Those wheels are in motion
Those wheels keep on turning

I walk the day streets in odd clothes with a
Cupboard full of new clothes that cost loads
But, if you new the real me
Then you would no so
Old habit's are now so so sales don't
Excite me like the use to
I find myself excited by sunsets
But don't see them much
I'm use to cold months and
It's getting chilly now
I'm born and bred in south
In a cook food house
My granny use to send a plate
Of food for the neighbor
But now I argue with neighbors
For music played loud
And their kinky behavior can be
Heard in my house
But build a house on a house
You take the privacy out
Move the poor people in and
Then the rich move out
The working class keep the system moving
But seem to be systematically loosing
Given no choices who can be choosing
They saying use your vote
But, I've checked out the parties
And I've looked around
So if I vote for a choice
Then will my vote count
I am the silent vote so hear my voice now
Try and digest the truth but don't choke now
And with the truth I bless this food

Those wheels are in motion
Those wheels keep on turning
Those wheels are in motion
Those wheels keep on turning

I got the magic touch the magic potion
And nothing powerful like words spoken
All together now the wheels in motion
All together now the wheels in motion
