They Think Its Easy
Mmm yeah yeah
Chorus
They think its easy to go on tv
do what I do each day
acting a certain way
could have lived the normal life
worked a job at 9-5
but I chose to entertain
so why the hell you hating me
(repeat)
You think this is easy and overnight we became stars on tv
we put our backs into this hands dirty
and our elbows greasy
school playground back in 96 spitting to beatbox with jungle lyrics
in the corner with graffiti bricks
no lyrical content it was about being quick
school would finish I would rush home
take my mic plug it into my stereo
and record myself and listen back to me
mcing off the beats on the radio
youth clubs it was to and fro
I even switched to DJ Neutrino
I did this nearly everyday just to help my skills grow
9-5 that worked for me I�ve tried that
I flipped burgers in Mc d in a warehouse at the top of my road
all day I stacked boxes with the trend dig
I couldn�t say fo cos mentally cos all I wanted to do was mc
get up on the pirate radio to rob the airways and explode
Chorus x2
Then it started in 98
on a pirate radio station I thought was great
supreme fm 96.1 where we showed our skills to the south of London
different legends So Solid edf
our heroes better than the best
cloud 9 coliseum step by step what a long process
99 til like 103 Mega, Megan and Mr C
we worked so hard we worked non stop
we put transmitters on top of the blocks,
we put aerials on top of the blocks
from D to I on top of the blocks
to the pouring rain on top of the blocks
in the middle of the night on top of the blocks
raving in a club we would storm to the front
hijack the mic and bust the place up
crowds would go mad crowds would go bo
Casualty, Dilemma and Oh No
Ox T Dubs worked so hard
selling casualty out of a boot of a car
because of every night we had to travel so far
in a blacked out excort Ford XR
So many things to do
don�t really need this do,
do the radio interviews
late night photoshoots
do this life we hate
different venue different place
different people different names
ooh back then chicks playing hard to get
nowadays there on the bed
wait for me god knows when
I just cant pretend I don�t see the changes that are happening
back then I used to pay
nowadays they give em away
sponsorships from left to right
just sign on the dotted line
everything is all good now
oh we made it now
but still they wanna pull us down
Chorus x2 to end
