lyrics
3. First Things First
Chorus
Till I leave this earth, bond be my word till I’m placed in the dirt/ soul will live on in a song and a verse/ but first thing first!
Simplex
My category be the same old story always told/ a poor rapper lived a hard life and broke the mold/ and what the future holds the certainty is death, taxes and life associated stress/ but none the less it’s too complex to sit around and freak/ id rather take what’s on my mind and put it on a beat/ and put it on the streets, I put it on to keep/ a legacy ahead of me me myself and my beliefs/ Honor, respect and what I say because my words are bond/ don’t need a church or a religion to learn right from wrong/ and I’m the sole controller of the path I walk upon/ these the words that I live by until the day I’m gone/ until that day s does come, i lay my voice on drums/ my sanity in the calamity of making funds/ never run, never will, never done, never chill, till I do what I want that’s for real!
Chorus
Mic Lez
Every line I spit goes back in time a little bit/ wont write it just to rhyme or because it fits it’s not what it’s/ ever been, ever will in a scene where the real don’t need a deal to appeal to the masses/ this ain’t pop it’s just how I feel/ real recognise real, recognise skill, recognise chill!/ there’s no looking back now man I’m only looking forward to looking forward at a crowd/ looking back at them man not going back on any plans/ took a little time now I’m back writing with both hands/ had to clear my mind of crap filter the facts leave them behind/ what’s right I write between the lines now’s the time/ redefine, this is life, hip hop I live it looking back through a shadow society now where is it?/ far from there now where somewhere it’s a good life but it ain’t rare !
Raph A.L.
The Terra Firma bandit, Abandoned by city standards/ Demanded by titty bangers, Offended many boyfriends and/ Befriended many offenders, Of the law and defenders/ From benders got apprehended, Being a vendor to depended/ On the chemicals enhancing, Mental release of endorphins/ Feel sentimental with this, Instrumental wind catching my caution/ with portions of my soul, Bring distortion to the frontlines/ Fault lines highlighted, excited, Cause now it's my time/ What time-lines divided, Certified wise united/ Indicted, since we decided, To Fight it until we right it/ now I might as well cut losses, Teach myself not to be bitter/ Get the jitters when I spit a, Or write a verse that u consider/ To be fitter than best, My competition never rest/ Never quit and on my chest, Got the vest that will impress/ Pass the test with flying colours, Like a rainbow in the sky/ In disguise from the underground, We rise before your eyes!

Awesome Album, completely different to Hell Hath No Fury, caught me by surprise, and what a surprise!.
This album is yet another example of exactly how high skilled Helen is as an emcee and a writter.
I was hanging out for this album and it delivered way more than i anticipated
Guest spots rip too, mad original beats.
Unreal Helen Earth, i love it when you do what you do Mick
