I wanted to do something that goes back to my roots and allows me to sound off about things that stimulate me. We're still in the midst of a global pandemic, so I felt a project with storytelling would be relevant for these crazy times. For this tape I've collaborated with some of my heroes, some talented up and comers in Drum & Bass and some of my best friends too! I'm so proud to work with these incredible people, their work is inspiring. Huge shouts to my label too for letting me express myself with no limitations.” – Degs Lyrics: Sippin’ on this drink with my thoughts yo
K-Soul I’ma celebrate the best of it
Cos when your chips are down you feel the pinch
and the recession hits
You need a conscious effort to refocus, start
developing
A firewall inside your brain establish its
effectiveness, uh And watch out for the prophets
that propagate falseness
You can spot ‘em from a mile off you wade through
their bullshit Their propensity to lie is just fuckin’
enormous These pagans wanna flex like they’re
somehow so flawlessNah
Don’t watch that shitHolistic is the way elevating
your ish Finding meaning from people that only love
themselves
Is the most unhelpful thing you could do for your
kids Stick to soul-searching yeah get the cogs
turning How could you ever know it all? Don’t ever
stop learning
So like I said I’m gonna celebrate this road ahead
And for my bredrins that I’ve lost I’ll keep your flame
burningI don’t give a shit no more yeah I’m getting
downYeah this world is full of clowns but you don’t
have join the circus you can make this life profound
brotherI don’t give a shit no more yeah I’m getting
down Yeah I’m floating on a cloud inhaling all this
loud everyone should wear a crown
Pop a bottle let’s get waved for these times it’s okay
to relieve external pressures on the mind Cos it’s
self-preservation the cornerstone of this rhyme
Accepting that reality is not by your design And I’m
tryna have my fun that much is certain No satisfaction emanates from dedicated working
Years and years of sacrifice for someone else’s
purpose We wonder why depression always bubbles
to the surface Our brain is supposed to serve us
Not make us nervous Or be an obstacle to ultimate
resurgence Or be a barrier to climbing out the
furnace the future’s in our grasp we ain’t the surplus
Learning to be stoic in the rain I’ve mitigated all my
shame without devotion to the process and a
sprinkling of faith it is impossibleTo truly have
contentment in your place
That negativity it don’t concern us
When you’re turning in at night, remember the most
sacred thing is timeIt isn’t easy to switch off, but if
we never breathe we all decline
No it ain’t acceptable to feel worthless Life can be
redesigned I don’t give a shit no more yeah I’m
getting downYeah this world is full of clowns but you
don’t have join the circus you can make this life
profound brother I don’t give a shit no more yeah
I’m getting down Yeah I’m floating on a cloud
inhaling all this loud everyone should wear a crown
