Lyrics

Born in the fog where the blocks box thoughts,
Where the lost walk clocks, and the shots pop off.
Peckham — ain't no beaches, just bricks and bleach,
Where a dream gets split by a switchblade's reach.
I spit slick scripts like the street's my sermon,
Pain painted in pitch while the system's burnin'.
Move in silence, eyes locked, lips zipped,
'Cause futures here flip faster than clip tips.
No palm trees, just calm screams in bombed schemes,
Dark teens with shark teeth in calm scenes.
Hope's a ghost in the stairwell — barely breathin',
We speak in beats, but the streets do the grievin'.
Ain't no silver spoons, just spliffs and spoons,
And the tunes that we boom from our wounds and fumes.
We're born boxed-in, taught not to win,
But I write with spite, light locked in skin.
This is Peckham, where prayers get swallowed,
And the youth get led but never followed.
Still we rise with a pen like a blade,
Tryna carve out peace in the scars they made.
Got a mind like a minefield — step and I detonate,
Educate pain, let the pen ventilate.
Never been Hollywood, never been calm,
But I bomb with a psalm in my palm like it's qualm.
Reality's bitter, they sip it like liquor,
We paint with the pain, let the canvas flicker.
They judge us from towers, sipping their tea,
But they wouldn't last one night in our E-S-T.
Written by: Dwight Bree Carter, Florent Tedesco
