Grime
About
This Grime track pulses with heavy sub-bass that rattles the speakers, layered over syncopated drums and off-kilter beats at 140 BPM for that classic East London rawness. Sparse synth stabs punctuate the aggressive, rapid MC delivery, spitting dense street lyricism about hustling in the shadows and holding down the territory. Minimalist production keeps the focus on the vocal flows and percussive intensity, evoking gritty urban nights.
Lyrics
Break the chains Ignite the night Shadows pull me down Into the grind We're staring Judging every line I choke on words They force me to swallow Dreams they bury deep Tomorrow's hollow Feel the fire Rising in my chest No more kneeling No more second best We're screaming out For freedom's roar Love unchanged We settle no score Tear the walls Let the wild hearts pour Rebels rising Forevermore Lies they weave like Thorns around my soul Hard in pieces Losing all control Puppets dancing to their scripted playbill But I'm breaking loose No turning away Pulse is pounding Can't hold it back Time to shatter Launch the attack We're screaming out For freedom's roar Love unchanged We settle no score Tear the walls Let the wild hearts pour Rebels rising Rebels rising Forevermore In the silence I hear my own beat No more hiding No defeat This is my war My sacred fight Claiming the dawn Embracing the light Yeah Yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
