Don't Drag Me In

[Braintax] You won't catch me on commuter trains at half past 8 I freeline at half 9 and I'm still not late You'll never see me after work pouring money down my throat Talking shit, gaining weight, for the sake of a joke Or with the other suits in the gents hittin' the coke I like a smoke but I always keep an eye on my notes Yeah you can call me self-righteous but I'll never lose hope You'll never see me 9 to 5 getting over to cope Not a typical life, I dream wilderness ways I resisted being villainous back in the days I was the one, seen my friends twocking for fun Ripping car radios out then...run! I'm up the ginnel quicker than the rest because I didn't smoke Full belt round the corner, shit! this is no joke Heard the helicopter buzzing overhead it's Time for me to be out, time to get selfish I can't be getting nicked for what someone else did Blended with the bushes till shadows melted And when the sun came up it was less hot Stepped off down the cobblestones at a trot I'm off to write rhymes, and I made the right choice And I know a lot of people take issue with my voice Even though we're all equal i'll be makin' my cream Fuck a British state of mind and the American dream... It's peer pressure You make your own mistakes But don't drag me in, I'm tryin' to elevate [Mystro] Course I ain't happy 'bout what's happenin' now Stuff ain't goin too well for you so now you're dragging me down And that is just foul so play fair, stop acting like you don't know My struggle in this jungle is just standing on my own toes And most won't accept the fact that times are hard I say they.. kinda are but still life is large And I'm planning to make it big to you know - rhyme with stars And have major companies bidding for me buying me cars Be in my own show pedalling across the Earth People I don't know begging me to drop a verse 'But what's this worth?' you ask, I say not everything mate But it's where I'm tryin' to be at so don't get in my way Just stay in your place Don't grab on me when problems are invading your space Cos as for me blud if I make a mistake I've only myself to blame plus I've dealt with pain And the sunny side's always better when you've felt the pain So deal with it - your umbrella is your mental state I can't be the only one that's keeping my friends awake And I know you ain't told me everything you meant to say But we can set things straight cos that was yesterday And day out and day in you might notice all these strange things But realize I'm going through the same thing The art from the start is maintaining and training your brain And of course like they say with no pain there's no gaining.. It's peer pressure You make your own mistakes But don't drag me, I'm tryin' to elevate
