Take Me Away

[Verse]
Yo
I like to kick off the night with a nice vodka and juice
Me and Sailor Jerry been very merry since we was introduced
Jeans are several inches loose
Hoodie and my blazers new
Boxers and my trainers too
Everything I've ever done I slipped up
Got nicked, picked up
Locked up, stripped
There’s no excuse, been goin' equipped
But that's the crazy arse life that I live
As you can tell I’m one crazy arse kind of a kid
As far back as I remember me and police never clicked
So I was always gettin' nicked
But luckily they couldn't get nuttin' to stick
I've been stitched
Seen the police make my friends switch
Lost friends to court cases
Won the case and still feel second place
Stuck on second base back in the back of a van
Too much of Havana Club inside me I'm actin' the man
And so the police wanna take me away
I just wish that someone else would do the same

[Chorus]
Take me away
See babylon they wan come now
Take me away
Wonder why the wan come down
Take me away
See babylon they wan come now
Take me away
Wonder why the wan come down

[Verse]
I've done a few bad things, I’m far from a saint
So as an artist quite a dark picture I paint
A dark picture of pain
Troubled youth who’s thoughts are enormous, they warp
Can't stop the thoughts I’m exhausted
It's like my mind's running overtime
All the things I think about
Every other time you move your mouth there's nuttin’ coming out
I ain't got a clue what you're talkin' about
But I've made a art out of actin' like I do
I just make an excuse and change the subject
Is it time to build a zoot yet
Sometimes it gets me upset
But I ain't given up yet, I'm a tough nut
I'm still reduced to tears when cuffed up
It's like my life nosedives every time it looks up
I try hard to move on
Feels like my foot's stuck
Stuck in the hood, stuck in a rut and fuckin' me up
I know it'll be time til my penance is paid
Still I pray something'll take me away

[Chorus]
Take me away
See babylon they wan come now
Take me away
Wonder why the wan come down
Take me away
See babylon they wan come now
Take me away
Wonder why the wan come down
