Novembars
DJ Semtex
Let's talk about privlege in the arts
cos' it's alive and it's kickin' my working class arse
and if I don't get this funding application in soon then
you'll probably never even hear these tunes and please
stop offering me your PR services
I'd love to take you up but I don't hold the purse strings
my Universal credit only stretches so far
and I've got to feed the kids and put money in the car
cos' these days people want to buy into street life
dress up and play without having to do the time
gold chains tracksuits world wide disposition
carefully curated like a V&A exhibition
and i'm sick of these people who've got nothing to say
sprinkling their ahit with glitter speaking cliched wordplay
keeping it real don't mean jumping on a story
the realness has to be yours in all this messy glory
You can pave your way with your mummy and daddies dough
but you can't buy no roots and soul with that money though
I see you reach there fast on your express train
I took the scenic route
so what if i'm late
at least I've got something to say.
