Eyes Open

[Intro]
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, so keep your eyes open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, so keep your

[Verse 1: Ty]
In a place where sometimes you can't even interact with the people you know
Uno dos tres cuatro, let’s rock slow and see where we go
I get lost in my mind sometimes tryna figure out how we gonna find our way
Take me back to the time when people said you're never gonna shine uh uh no way
You're not from the right country, you
Don’t have the right accent
Skin and bone, no you're too fat
Don't have the right skin tone, who produced that?
Apparently you gotta dumb down to appeal to the kiddies that's condescending
To me, to them, but you see where I come from that story's never-ending
Better chew fat like a cow trying to work out how your gonna make an entrance
But I wanna send messages through the music, hopefully you feel the vengeance
Coupled with independence and knowing I can talk while I gotta when I gotta
No I'm not from the gutter but I'm from my mum's yard (right)
If you disobey you will feel God
Thunder, lightning
Strike that body like kung-fu fighting
Raised in the village called South
London, words travel by mouth
When a house is not a home, you’re not alone
Aunties and uncles, they got a phone
If they hear bad things, you know they’re gotta moan
But that's my village

[Chorus]
So keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, so keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open

[Verse 2: Ty]
I admit sometimes that I let the world crush me to a pulp as an adult
But I had to figure out for myself that it’s a cold day and it's not my fault
My worth is not dictated by
Values set up by passersby
Got to really swerve the grassy knoll
Snipers tuned in to the hyperbole
In this steeplechase full of beats, bass and bad minds
I like to stroll
Humbled by the gift of my control
My effect on the crowd is likeable
Being schooled by PE taught me don't believe the hype so I'm not excitable
Ancestral connects I like to pull
Indeed this trouble is beautiful
Still I rise like the phoenix
Maya Angelou in my double helix
DNA, see a way, succeed, visualise, activate, proceed and bounce
Got to leave a dent in the granite
Got to leave a mark on the planet
Everything must change Randy Crawford said so
But they won’t understand it till the
Cow jumps over the moon, til the
Whole world bangs in a boom
Well you can sit and wait for the end with your friends
I'll be over here settin' new trends
Mind-bending, new agendas, we are the avengers to remember
Chakra remain open, message received return to sender

[Chorus]
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, so keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open, keep your ears open, keep your eyes open
Keep your mind open

[Verse 3: OG Rootz]
They say Goodz, what is it, what's holding you back? (back, back, back)
I say you can't hold Usain Bolt on a track (track, track, track)
They say yo, what is it, why we can't see you? (see you, see you, see you, see you)
I say they can't see me cause them man a' see-through (see-through, see-through, see-through, see-through)
Only the real recognize real people
An artist with a plain canvas
Sees a brother like me and blanks us
Like they don't understand what a mag does
I move heads and shoulders, like dandruff
Tight like handcuffs, when I write I set alight standards
World wide, like satellite channels
Act like UK can't handle
Any MC to me is a candle
When I do me from a different angle, anything around me dismantles
While my pyramids build
Just to make it clear there's no getting rid of this skill
Why not try open up your pineal (pineal, pineal, pineal)
For a pioneer yeah I am here
You can feel it like a natural mystic
Blowing in the air

[Chorus: Deborah Jordan]
Gardez l'esprit ouvert, les oreilles ouvertes, gardez yeux ouverts (x5)
Gardez l'esprit ouvert
