Talk That by Rival (UK) Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2011

Verse 1:
They wanna know why I talk like this
And talk like that
I just spit what I know
I don't talk no trash
When it comes down to it
I don't live no 9 to 5
I'm at night
Smoking with goons in flats
Yeah
We move like rats
Gritty sides of London
I don't know about a business suit
It's all hoods and hat's
And i walk with a bop
And it's straight low batts
Yeah
This is what we call London
Buckingham palace that's not London
Lemme show you our life
Crime rates high
Even tho them camera's flash
You might slip if you don't know where them camera's at
Most of the youth their angers mad
We're just animals
Stuck in our habitat
Chorus:
They wanna know why I talk that violence
Talk that slang
Talk that greaze shit
Talk them words
Cos round my way, nothing ain't nice
So when I spray listen learn
Talk that madness
Talk with flow
Talk with anger
Talk that road
I just say...that's all I know

Verse 2:
They wanna know why's there's all this crime
All this pain
Cos us youths be broke
And we need this money to live, eat and see more days
Education ain't a option
Not when we're shotting that green or yay
Making that money off a fiend all day
If a brudda ain't making money
Then he's making trouble
That's why when I see the news
I see more rage
Youths locked up
Have to see that cage
Years out there life
Cos there on a hype
Not fair but it's life
I'm thinking
At what year will it change?
And i don't wanna see my mummy cry
No I'm not tryna shed no tears
But the life that I'm living ain't really great

Chorus:
They wanna know why I talk that violence
Talk that slang
Talk that greaze shit
Talk them words
Cos round my way, nothing ain't nice
So when I spray listen learn
Talk that madness
Talk with flow
Talk with anger
Talk that road
I just say...thats all I know

Verse 3:
They wanna know why I talk this violence
Talk this road
But the end of the day
That's all I know
The ame problem with kids
We can't stop how we live
Especially if life ain't offering shit
We're in the bits all day
Tryna grind
Cos life's hard
Supplying or carrying knives
Cos times hard
Just tryna find our
Way in the world, and there's so many just like us
Trapped in a system where we can't win
So we do these things
And the government know that
But don't get me twisted
I'm not tryna be no speaker for road man
I'm jus stating we all got sense
So think before you act
Cos for every act
There's a consequence
Chorus:
They wanna know why I talk that violence
Talk that slang
Talk that greaze shit
Talk them words
Cos round my way, nothing ain't nice
So when I spray listen learn
Talk that madness
Talk with flow
Talk with anger
Talk that road
I just say...thats all I know
