Kemptown Blues by Verbz, Mr Slipz Lyrics
[Intro]
Fuckin' hell
Dat time again, shit I'm up
Fuck! Where's my phone at man? Fuckin' hell
One missed call? Better check who that is
(You have one new message, received today at 2:44 am)
[Verse]
I ain't felt love in a long while
This a song for myself in this glum smile
For them nights I was missin' or I run wild
Tales of a kid who went the distance under skunk cloud
Somehow livin' in existence with the wrong crowd
Another son with a vision to make mum proud
Still stumble when I'm slippin' off a come down
Surrounded by the sounds of the unfound
Underground poets are noticed in this hum drum town
Where most ain't tryin' know if you ain't got clout
And off road, smoke's gettin' blown in the dosshouse
Chicks gettin' low for the snow when it drop down
Comfy on my loan, car know how to rock out
Feelin' like Stallone edging close to a knock out
Alone in the zones with no phone and I'm locked out
Fuck it though I won't calm, known to be a stop out
Grown from a youngin' when I used to have my locks round
Call me south London how am I not proud?
But tonight I'm further southern at my don's house
And shit's movin' slow I better stop now
Shit's movin' slow I better stop now
Unlike the clocks they ain't stoppin' and they never will be
So with all the shit I'm droppin' someone better film me
Each track depicts the picture of the [?]
From my every day enigmas and the things that I miss
Tryin' to piece together what we had now broken in bits
From the sound of her melodies to eloquent lips
Though things ain't the same I ain't regrettin' the kiss
Or the moments we laid in my bed and we lit
These are the sounds of an achein' heart yet to be fixed
Ain't tryin' to just take part I play for the win
Cause if it ain't worth chasin' why am I taking the risk?
While I'm meddling with medicines I'm takin' the piss
A new day approaches, I grow closer to bliss
But with a smile no one notices the hole that I'm in
Close to the ocean, been coastin' while holdin' my sins
Hope grows been fighting just to stay on track
Even if I was to quit I wouldn't know my way back
The end draws close, I'm approaching the max
This feelin' rests in my soul as I float off the map
[Outro]
Yo Verbz, it's Luca
What have you been sayin' man?
I've been tryin' to get through to ya but, every time I call it's just been goin' straight to voice mail
The last time I spoke to you you were just wavin' it, all the time
You can't keep doin' that man
You gotta make shit happen, you know what I'm sayin'?
I dunno man, gimme a call
Let me know if you're alright innit?
Right, bless bruv
Fuckin' hell
Dat time again, shit I'm up
Fuck! Where's my phone at man? Fuckin' hell
One missed call? Better check who that is
