Relentless

[Verse One (Funky DL)]
Sometimes I gotta’ sit back or spend the whole night
Playing over all the events throughout my whole life
Childhood, adolescence, teenage, adulthood
All the memories, experiences bad or good
The pain, the hurt, the triumphs and the jubilations
From broke pockets to big bank remunerations
The transformation of communication
I’m in the studio working, I ain’t trying to leave the consumers waiting
I’ve seen people close disappear, people toast this my year
Then repeat the same the same old song
I just sit on my perch while I’m putting in the work
Shaking my head, like how they play the game so wrong?
So I made more songs, sharpened up my writing
And strike like a billion volts of lightning
And roll like I’m a Knight from dark ages
When I try my best and get it wrong I make some sharp changes
Black and gifted, still some worry bout’ these dark faces
I’m not surprised when these world leaders racist and judge you on your pigment
Accuse em’, it’s a figment of your imagination
So now I step with some next type of navigation
Huh, I got my sword and my shield
And I’m skilled, so I’ll be the last standing in the field that’s for real
When I make a beat or write a sentence
I do it with the kind of energy we call relentless

[Verse Two (Klashnekoff)]
Straight… I felt that
And for the last couple years fam I fell back
Cah’ I been through hell, felt trapped like a snail
Tried carrying this world on my frail back, still I can’t be held back
It’s deeper than rap, can you tell that?
It’s all authentic, this world’s tormented
Still I said I’d world tour and I meant it
Me and DL we both grew up in the trenches
Hackney the ends is, the memories and friendships
The foundation where everything got cemented
That’s why we’re relentless…
Yeah, but nuff times I’ve been friggin’ stuck
You know the times when everything was fucked!
And no labels weren’t picking up
Still I weren’t giving up
Just like DL and that’s why you have to big him up

[Verse Three (Funky DL)]
I scanned the barcode of life and checked the price
And saw the crap, rolled the dice then broke the ice
And took a studio device and made prototypes
Teach an entire generation how to hold the mic
And pimp the game like Dolomite, cos’ this a different kind of hustle
I’m straight def like Dante, Jermaine, Russell
And what’s left is brainpower, the main muscle
Can power punch you with each hand, that’s eight knuckles
I make my talents multiply like in the parables of Jesus
And I just need some music, some apparel and some sneakers
Decide what I decide without me having to give reasons
And treating everyday like it’s a fight to keep my freedom
They say the revolution won’t be televised
That’s why the population’s favourite time is ten to five
So I don’t really care about your enterprise
You got stocks and shares, I got rhymes to memorize
So I don’t have to blink twice
I saw you the first time and I’m cool like drink ice
There’s a war going on outside no man is safe from
They killing Generals down to a dude they took a chain from
So I got my sword and my shield, and I’m skilled
So I’m ready and I’m standing in the field that’s for real
When I make a beat or write a sentence
I do it with the kind of energy they call relentless
